this is just jack losing his mind for 12 minutes straight LMAOOO
Love this for him.
@@rashmiagarwal5648 no.
Me with spiritual knowledge and abilities also lost a lot of brain cells because of this meaningless review. It’s like talking about chemistry with no knowledge about chemistry … of course it’s weird then!
I'm here for it. Go, Jack.
Kylie seems like the type of person to recommend a book she never finished lmao
Assuming she actually made it past the title page if that.
@@jasminedubois6711 haha yeah bold of me to assume she even started it 🤣
To be fair, I recommended a book to a friend before I finished it just because the book was so gripping.
Ig she only finished the inside cover lmao
This seems bitter and unnecessary lmao like she never claimed to be smart chill
If I was a celebrity, I'd be scared of Jack Edwards coming and attacking for my favorite books lol.
If you're not an complete idiot you shouldn't be worried I guess
Especially if your fav books suck
Haha he's like an assassin for celebrity's book taste.
I wouldn't bc I don't even read
@@MercurialMoon why don’t you read?
Her book list sounds like *what wealthy people read to make themselves feel better for not giving a crap about others lol
Truth
indeed

aka "how to not care about not having empathy"
No not all rich people. Only those who got a lot of money and fame without working hard
“The evidence was thin as kylie’s swimwear”
Ooo, Jack woke up and chose violence 💀
🤣🤣🤣
the tea was served and it is scalding🍵🍵
I meannnnn I MEAAANNNNN
It's funny because it's true
Violence = Truth
I mean did a celebrity actually read a book if Jack did not psychoanalyse them?
so many likes yet only 1 reply
If I ever become famous I am not sharing my book tastes because now I'm scared this man's gonna judge me harshly
@@cookiemocher388 same haha!
When you started complimenting Kylie on being a “self made billionaire” you had me in the first half, not gonna lie. For real though, the fact that some people don’t know that the “self made” and “billionaire” parts are both lies is irrationally irritating.
It’s weird that you get irritated by someone you don’t know
@@erikwar683 it's not weird when it's a reflection of bigger issues (self-made billionaire myth)
Erik War it’s weird you find it weird that someone you don’t know can get irritated at people neither of you know
Actually, she is not even a billionaire. She cannot be on the same level with true billionaires Bill Gates , Elon Musk etc (it’s honestly laughable). There are like really few billionaires out there , they are rare , very rare . I don’t understand how it is still legal for this Jenner -Kardashian family to lie about their net worth .
@@erikwar683 I don’t know Kim Jong Un personally yet I find him exceedingly irritating (which is quite justified)
My dad married a horribly abusive woman and my sister and I begged him to leave, and he had sole custody of us. He was miserable too. He read The Four Agreements and said the book changed his outlook on our situation by convincing him that we are the ones deciding to be affected by her abuse. That her demeaning words and psychologically damaging actions "have no power," even though I was 16 at the time. Whenever I was understandably upset by her actions, he would just bring up that damn book. WTF?! He eventually left a few years later once that bogus thinking wore off and he couldn't take it anymore. I always saw that book as a joke. It mocks legitimate reactions to unhealthy circumstances.
Hope you're alright now
Aargh, that doesn't seem like a pleasant situation. I hope you are OK
Oh my God both of my parents believe that same crap (but through a Christian lens, idk if that book is Christian or not), it is infuriating at its best and traumatizing at its worst, I hope you're living your best life now ❤
@@N_IRL thank you! it’s crazy that my dad was never religious as I was growing up (he is now though) but I think he used similar manipulative tactics.
I am living my best now 😊 I earned a masters degree and became a college counselor in Hawaii and only need to work 9 months out of the year. It feels good knowing how upset my dads ex would be at my happiness and success.
@@MiciousDawn That's great to hear! I'm going off to college in just two weeks, and it's not a religious college so I'm going to start my journey toward living my best life really soon! I'm sure I'll become very acquainted with my own college counselor, you chose a very noble career path to walk down

this will always be my favorite video of his. he’s so pissed throughout the whole thing, it cracks me up every time.
I’m going to read every book Kylie Jenner has recommended… *proceeds to hold up the smallest pile of books* 😅
Because that were the only book she recommended?
yeah cause it's recommended not read....??
My comment still stands - it either means she has very high standards of books or she doesn’t read much at all.
@@gracemills8777 she wasnt recommending every book she likes, shes just saying "these are a couple you should read" when i recommend something i dont recommend every book i've ever liked
the funny thing is she probably hasn’t even read these books and jack had to go through the pain of reading them 😭😭
I doubt there is anything on any kardashian social media that is not sponsored.
My thoughts exactly 😂
@Trinity M I never said she doesn't read, I just don't think she's read THESE specific books and prob 'recommended' them to promote a certain image. from what I've seen she seems to be a colleen hoover fan
She might have read them, just because they're rich doesn't mean they never read books, unless the authors or something sponsored her, why would you lie about the books you read
@@cookiemocher388 to gain internet points obv
angry jack is so entertaining
lmao fr
"Kylie Jenner's bank balance looks like a phone number while mine looks like the number someone would have on squid game"
When it comes to Jack's humour the limit is the sky
I read the Four Agreements and I was so confused the whole time. I read it as a teen and thought “maybe I’m just dumb, or maybe I’ll get it when I’m older???” So I’m glad to hear I’m not stupid, it’s just word salad nonsense lol
lol im glad i saw this video becuase I've seen it recommended so many times but no I'm never going to read it.
I'm not saying that you're stupid .. But it's definitely not nonsense. It makes total sense, whether you agree with it or not.
@@graceface420 how so?
@@thisisajourney8956 good question. And I'm not sure it's even something that can be explained (or perhaps I just don't know how to). But I will say that I'm definitely older than Jack and I find that we have wildly different perspectives on books. I thought things were nonsense when I was 20 that I now see the value in. Reading this book at almost 40, I now know the importance of its lessons.
@@graceface420 That’s how I’ve been seeing it as well.
Don't you just hate it when you're out running errands and run into someone from a past life. Completely ruins my day.
😂😂😂😂👻😳!
got really scared when you said she was an impressive self made billionaire but you never fail to disappoint
love your username
Never fail to disappoint.... I think you phrased that wrong
Ummm...never fail to disappoint?💀
He always brings that humor!
u had a little wrong wordplay there💀
Okay, I just recently found this guy and I couldn't be more upset as to how I didn't know him before! This guy is absolutely amazing and needless to say, his humor is top-tier for me.
Oh I know! He’s so witty!
The four agreements actually helped me a lot on realizing stuff that maybe for a lot of people is easy, but when you are feeling like there is nothing that can help you out it’s really hard for you to realize it.
Agreed
When you're lost and confused you often forget core truths and books like The Four Agreements really help
Yes. I read it when I need it most
I agree that sometimes these books serve as a reminder of old wisdom but the way they justify the content is really bad. I mean, when the author resorts to mumbo jumbo and magic thinking to validate their wisdom then I would say not even the author believes in what they preach. That's what's disappointing about these books.
Hell yeah!! four aggreements just pulled me out of so much self sabotage!
Four agreements really helped me alot
My supervisor: Why is there no critical analysis in your essay?
Me: I can feel it in my bones that the researchers were telling the truth.
my first thesis draft ^ "coz i know" lmaoo
😂
“Feeling in your bones” means high range of developed intuition to make this clear. It’s psychic thing. Writing essay and looking for knowledge in book need evidence cause you take knowledge from book, not from your own experience of psychic development of knowledge. Do not don't confuse impressions with concepts.
@@laurakubickova8777 i see someone did not get the joke
"We're off to a *Stormi* start"
"Make sure you"ve got some *syrup* because this is mostly just *waffle* "
"Let's just cha-cha slide and take it back a little y'all"
*“The evidence was thin as Kylie’s swimwear”*
One of the few reasons why I love this channel so much
What does the syrup and waffle refer to? I don’t follow the kardashian
@@Sara-kq8qb idk if it has anything to do w the kardashians but pancake is dry without syrup that’s why jack said that
@@Sara-kq8qb waffle sounds like awful :)
@@Sara-kq8qb Waffle is a term used to refer to many words but not much meaning, i.e. just a load of nonsense to pad out the book
He has one of the best senses of humour on yt
Lol the four agreements is always so highly recommended! I actually recently picked it up at a thrift store and want to read it soon. I bet it’s the “wisdom book” for people who have never read a book
So next time I go to the doctor I should expect "You don't need further investigations, I can feel it my bones you are ok"
I mean, some version of that happens a lot, tbh. lol
Less than a minute into the video and you're already dragging Kylie for being 'self-made' 💀💀 this is gonna be a BANGING video
I feel like alot of these celebrities support and promote these books because alot of these 'self-help' books promote the idea that we can change our lives if we simply decided too. Then celebrities can defend themselves against people calling them out for money hording and unethical practices because according to these 'experts' if the people they treat unethically just decided to get better jobs and "work harder" then they wouldn't be in the position they're in.
This is such an insightful observation I think your right on the money
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Then they say shit like "wE AlL hAvE tHe SaMe 24 HoUrS-"
I was thinking the same thing omg you worded it perfectly
Absolutely, some celebs love to seek super relatable and will make like we can be just like them if we ate and exercised just like them. Like, unless we get the support these wealthy people have, we could never asked to their level of success, whatever that may entail (fitness, wealth, happiness, etc.)
Thanks so much for talking about the four agreements. So many people on instagram were recommending it and saying “it changed their lives”. so I read it and thought it was super basic common self help knowledge or something super crazy like thinking about cancer and than getting it. You are honestly the first person I’ve heard speaking the truth and not praising this book for being genius.
the four agreements book gave me hella anxiety because of that "your thoughts become your reality" mentality... which YEAH makes sense because if you think negatively all the time that tends to spiral, but my silly goofy brain takes it literally so I'm now I'm afraid to have even one bad thought because then bad things might happen 🤠
Same!!!
Your constant thoughts create
you may want to look into OCD, this sounds similar to that
Oh gosh I thought I was the only one
@@spideyvenus some time ago I was afraid I might have OCD because my intrusive thoughts are really bad and honestly they interfere with my life so much, there was a point I was so afraid of one specific thing happening and that caused me so much anxiety to the point I couldn’t eat and I would lay in bed crying about it all day (the thing in question involved health, when there were no sign whatsoever that there was anything wrong with my health).. But I don’t think i do any compulsory behavior, i don’t feel the need to clean or organize anything, and when I did research about it this was like the main symptom of ocd so now I just think my problem is just anxiety really. But should I maybe talk about it with my psychologist?
video idea - getting book shop cashiers or librarians to pick ur next read!?
Yesss this seems goood!!
I love that idea !
A really strong suggestion. I'd watch that vid 👌
but joe is in Paris ya'll. Jack, better watch out
Omg THIS SOUNDS like an amazing idea
"If she has physic powers tell us when David Attenborough is going to die so we can all stop worrying" the books might be shit but the comedy was next level
Book review channels have no business being this clever
4 agreements is actually really good for spiritual growth. Writing is not the best but the founding idea is actually true
The four agreements is a book of Toltec philosophies. I have read this book in its original Spanish language, and the translation does not do justice. I suggest people wanting to read this book, and the creator of this youtube video, too, look further into the historical implications of the philosophies these native Mexican people were trying to embody :). I also agree there are a lot of faults in this book, but this is a native people's philosophy that should be looked at through the objective lens of history as well.
👌🏽
Your titles are getting better and better lmao
Please do Florence Welch, Hozier or Tom Hiddleston. I'm begging you by now.
Also you can probably enjoy these.
yesss
and Emma Watson
Omg Tom Hiddlesgon and Emma Watson for sure!!!! Please!
Oh my god if Jack was to analyse Tom Hiddleston AKA my soul mate's taste in literature I would dieeeee
“If a Kardashian/Jenner is reading it DON'T!”
-By Me
LMAO that line about her being self made was savage and I 👏 am 👏 here 👏 for 👏 it 👏
jack throwing the book over his shoulder is such a good summary of all the books in this video 😂
also the references were on point 👌
I don't know how he convinces himself for reading all the bad recommendations although it's all fun to watch but finishing a bad book takes a lot of effort 💀. Props to him #Respect
I would have been throwing it backwards a lot sooner 😄
The 4 agreements is more of a spiritual book that you don’t read in order to analyze but understand and grow. I’m shocked Kylie read it
No analysis or critical thinking skills required huh? Now y’all see why people fall for anything these days and don’t believe in facts and science. Gullible af
@@PeepersT Bro i can tell only by reading your insults that you are really no better. Do you think that people who meditate are dumb and don't belive in the science. you are so way off.
Same... totally love the book!
@@marcobaluardo196 People meditating isn't nearly the same as believing in anti-scientific and irrational garbage such as this book. Meditating can center you, this book makes you think Nazism started because Hitler was not his best self...dafuq.
How can you understand without analyzing?
I’d love to see a live feed of you while reading these books. I imagine random screaming, the book occasionally hitting the wall, yelling ‘whyyyyyyy’.

The way i cracked up when Jack said "the evidence was as thin as Kylie swimwear"😂.

I can’t stress enough how much I love when people quote song lyrics like deep, meaningful poetry.
“If you read this book you will be insufferable”… that’s probably why she read it
As a hypnotherapist I find Weir's book problematic as I was trained to do forms of past-life regression with clients.. WITH THE COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING of both parties that what the client sees and experiences ISN'T a past life, but the brains ability to code information and experiences as METAPHORS. Exactly like a dream. You can use this technique to help resolve difficult memories and experiences, and a few clinical studies suggest that this is useful.
BUT it isn't, you know, real. It's the subconscious mind and it's beautiful ability to code data.
Weir's assertion that it was, in fact, real in my opinion robs the client of whatever clinical therapeutic value such a technique might have.
Thanks for your input. Past Life Regression is a weird title to give it and i think a lot of people exploit it.
But Past lives don’t exist🙄
Weirs idk about him but the only hypnotherapist i like is alba wainman
@@sandershano5758 The comment literally acknowledges past lives don't exist 😭

it’s been a stormi week for jack. hope you are doing better now x
also also she doesn’t even have good taste in book covers, unlike her sisterrrr
your humour, personality and descriptions give me life! you are such a happy person love it
"B.C., before Christ, CHRIST HADN'T HAPPENED YET" I'm cryingggggg
I rarely comment but when you make these kinds of videos, it's really entertaining to watch, plus, somehow, it made me learn how to criticize or analyze in writing better! I love a good laugh especially when it comes to books! I hope you do more of these kinds of videos!
The whole video was funny and witty, but I actually snorted at WhAt A koiNkiDinK omg
I knew someone who knew Dr. Weiss personally since they used to work together at UM. Most of the Psychiatric department considered him a bit off and he was apparently deeply affected by the death of his child. He was more interested in his superstar status after Many Lives, Many Masters than actually helping people.
I just discovered your channel and your scathing book reviews are giving me life!
How did Dr Weiss get his PhD in psychology? I have a BSc in psychology, and we were always required to cite references in every piece of work, but he gets away with "I can just feel that it's true"? My lecturers would never have let me get away with that. Or if they had, it would have saved me a lot of time "this essay is full of factual information because I believe it is"
He said “source: dude trust me”
Is it a self published book maybe?
That book is for amusement, and I think is more popular in latinamerica because we love those subjects 😂
@@MC-qv2zy lmao 💀
@@andreamartineau1197 it's actually published by a big international publisher. They really publish anything these days 😕
I think it’s safe to say Jack is NOT into spiritualism hahaha
Lol truu
Yankee spiritualism is the biggest bullshit USA is trying to sell to our generation now a days.
Honestly those books are for profit only. I am heavily spiritual, and yet those books exist as some sort of "psychiatric" evidence (with no evidence), to convince people that are desperate, be it from physical suffering, be it from a suffering mind. This is awful and misleading. Shouldn't be published as "science". I am fuming
@@anapaulabezzolo943 spiritualism has existed a long long time ago, tf??
@@nickigotoschool217 Note the specifier "Yankee"
I read one of those when I was about 10 years old and was fascinated by reincarnation, then started reading about metaphysics, after that new age and self help books. I've also read the 4 agreements a few times. All I can say is that at the very least these books got me interested in reading.
Jack chucking the book behind him will never not be satisfying. It gives me strong Silver Linings Playbook vibes, and I love it.
You should do a video about Anya Taylor-Joys book recommendations!
'generational wealth' damn, Jack's on fire today.
I've been bingeing your content for a week now and I just finished reading your book at 1:55 am on a school night. I thought it was a very informative read. I especially appreciated the personal insights to international experiences, your experience with imposter syndrome and the talk about diversity. I actively took notes from your personal statement section. Your content is super fun, I love the attempted puns they always make me exhale with pressure through my nostrils.
The four agreements read without any critical thought can be outright dangerous. That book has no personal accountability
Hey , adele recently appeared on 73?74 question interview and they showed her bookshelves. Could you make a video about reacting to adele's recommended books. 😅
It's only considered sunday when Jack posts a video, so mission accomplished

“Firstly because the 4 rules are explained in the inside cover” I died😂
"we're off to a stormi start" 💀
Hey, Jack! I love your videos! I don't know if you take requests or not, but I think it would be really interesting to see you discuss the things you hate about your favourite books. It could be an interesting, and possibly challenging, exercise.
I think this is my favorite video from you. The rage is just genuinely delicious. I'm so sorry you read these.
why to watch stand up comedy when you can watch jack reviewing celebritied book recommendation.
I thought the same as you when I read the four agreements for the first time! Really triggered me the way it was written. Tho I must say as I actually started living by them, they are live changing! Simple but good. And you realize that life CAN be really simple once you start following them
Anecdotal
You should read every book Bella Swan recommends in the twilight books x
She basically just recommends a high school English Literature curriculum. Like the books people name when asked to name classics.
Wuthering heights it's actually a very nice classic, I loved it 😂
Okay but Jack ranting about these books for 12 minutes straight is the most entertaining thing I saw today :D
"BEAUTIFULLY BEAUTIFULLY" 3:32 he sounds so British lmao
I agree with your thoughts on The Four Agreements. I had been hearing such great things about it for years from my peers and finally read it and I was disappointed. It was a struggle to get through it!
Ngl Jack I’m only looking at your house right now. The kitchen is literally so cute and I loveeee the door, I have a think for wood doors rn they just make the home look homey
"Like some evil Alan Titchmarsh" is my favourite quote ever and I *will* try to use this in my day-to-day life.

I love reading novels especially the novels that compose of 1000 - 5000 chapters/page. It's like a journey with complete world building that you will need just a little bit of effort to imagine the settings of the books.
Her taste in books somehow makes so much sense

The BEST reviews ever. I have only read the first of these but your critique is spot on. Hysterical.
never seen Jack being so passionate about not buying a book before, i’m here for it 😂😂😂
This 👏 Review 👏 Is 👏 Brutal
I needed this sass and honesty for my Sunday night. Much love from Australia 🇦🇺
Dr Weiss has been watching too much k-drama. I literally just watched a series with the same plot as the second book.
Love spending time with Jack! ❤️
i love your videos but actually the four agreements was so comforting to me 😅
watching Jack lose his mind over the last two books gave me the strength to complete my assignments.
Kylie: *recommends a book*
Jack: So you’ve chosen death
This was one of the most entertaining CZcams vidéo I've watched all year. Love live the Edwards.
10:10 I love how you can see the marks on the cover as if Jack got so frustrated while reading it to the point that he started doing gymnastics using the book.
“FIND A SYNONYM” 3 minutes in and I love this video already
Off the topic but I really love the " 4 cold wall" And "99 problems" shirts Jack is wearing
everyone especially kourtney posts about the 4 agreements and i’m like you could summarize the whole book with one paragraph which is literally the inside cover !!!!!!!!
Second video I’ve seen of yours and I am hooked.
My narcissistic estranged father LOVED the 4 agreements because they were rules that Other People should follow. Also I kinda feel like “Do Your Best” kinda negates the other agreements because you could be like “well I was impeccable with my word 1/10 times but at least I tried!”
Ooof I hear you. I was in a toxic friendship with someone obsessed with the four agreements and “take nothing personally” became “anytime I held them accountable it was a me problem”
Same here... i think we can draw some conclusions :/
my parents too
@@GailGallaghermusic this is more common sense for me? What the heck you needed a book to told you that??? 😅🤣🤣🤣
Well i know some people needed to be told about this. Like Kylie
I hv no original experiences
Jack woke up and chose violence... and I'm not complaining
the vibes and backdrops are impeccable
I love this commentary so much! Very enjoyable I just subscribed.
I love how Jack is wearing a shirt that says “99 problems” on it while describing the 99 problem of Dr.Brian’s book
the 4 agreements may not be the most well written thing but the 4 agreements themselves are something we can all do better to follow I think!
Ariel Rodriguez The book is based on ancient Toltec spirituality and their principles. It's not all commons knowledge when it's not practiced commonly, and these spiritual systems were built to remind us to stay in alignment with common truths. To call it "drivel" feels disingenuous.
Not me. Agreement #2 is basically saying, "Be a narcissist or even a total psychopath." And Agreement #3 is saying, "Doubt even the most basic elements of human behavior." Forget that noise!
@@arielrodriguez968 the ones that get it, get it, and the ones that don’t, don’t. personally it changed my life, sorry but not everyone understands everything at first glance, I am a very oblivious person and don’t pick up on stuff like the four agreements or common knowledge because of my learning disability. it really helped me, and it’s not only common knowledge, it’s about the Toltec experience and that culture.
