He really went into so many untold stories this interview and as a fan it was so nice to be able to understand more about Dream and the way his mind works. Thank you both for being so lovely to Dream, maybe some time in the future you could do another interview to see how his life has progressed, especially with his new direction in his career towards music!

      The victim of Amanda that came forward is now 13 and was much younger when Amanda made her hurt herself infront of a cam for a show etc

    I have to say I’m really appreciative of how respectful and decent this interview was. I know it’s human nature to want to know the dirt details of someone you look up to but this interview felt respectful and informative without feeling invasive and as in some situations disrespectful and hurried. I really enjoyed watching this. I felt like I learned some things about Dream despite being a fairly big fan for the last year or so and being in the middle of all things social media this fairly well informed as things have developed. I felt like the interviewers were well informed and took their time to come up with questions that were respectful and about Dream’s career even when his personal life came up they were still respectful about his responses. Thank you for this interview. I’ll be subscribing to your content so that I can watch more.

The impression I got was that he took the mask off such that he can make IRL content with his friends, but going back to the mask seems to complicate that goal. I’d be interested in the specific timeline of this, as some of it seems reactionary and somewhat improvised, and I wonder when the decisions in this transition were made.

    i love so much how you guys let dream talk and ramble as much as he liked and just unapologetically be himself. it’s so nice to see especially as a fan hearing him talk about what he’s passionate about :) really perfect questions too, you guys are so lovely. thank you !

    As a dream fan thank you so much for allowing him to genuinely speak his mind, I can tell you actually prepared for the interview and you took time to understand him more as a person beyond the narrative that is created on Twitter or by commentary channels here on CZcams. So yeah, just thank you, it’s very refreshing to see

    This is truly the best interview of dream so far. Like genuinely all the questions are great, I can see you did a lot of research. You let him talk freely and even rambling. I've been a fan of him for years and this interview makes me know so much more about him. I am really grateful to you guys. Thank you for being awesome to our boy, appreciate it a lot :)

  • @Cloud_l0
    @Cloud_l0 Před 10 měsíci +10

    This changed my life, and I don't mean that lightly.
    My perspective:
    I look up to Dream as both inspiration and somewhat of a friend who I listen to rather than speaking with, and as an introvert, that's the best I could ever ask for in a friend anyways. This interview asked better questions than any others have, and Dream was allowed to talk fully through each part. I've never looked up to him as much as I do now, since I found so many similarities between us; I am an avid writer, constantly putting off schoolwork to write fiction, and I have started a book which I intend to self-publish within two years. Writing has taken over much of the time I would otherwise be reading, and I have finished books within one or two days before starting a new one. Words are my escape, like Dream said, and my sole reason for writing is to be able to be a storyteller - to share my fantasies with other people who can enjoy them. Like Dream, I've gone through a very dark place after realizing my aspirations were very unlikely to pan out and my purpose and passion in life was probably not going to happen. Dream was right in saying his best creativity came from it; so did mine. Thankfully, I pushed myself to take up my passion again after dropping writing for a long while, and I got better much sooner than Dream did. Like him, I am much happier now since I don't take being happy for granted and I understand that I can achieve if I put the work in. And, the final kicker: I am on track to graduate early, as well. I fully intend to learn from Dream and take writing seriously. Substantial thank you to Colin and Samir for rekindling my motivation and quite possibly setting my life back on the right track.

    From all of the dream interviews ive seen, this is honestly the best. anything with dream in it i will always watch, but i actually really enjoy this interview and its different from others. In every other interview the questions are always the same meaning the answers are always the same. but from this interview, although some common questions were also asked we were able to get new answers and learn more about dream/clay and being able to hear everything that he wants to say :) Also you guys seem like you really wanna know the guy and is actually intrested in him. great job on this! You guys are an example of what interviews should be like!! 💚

    thank you so much for allowing Dream to speak without any prejudice against him it's a huge pattern I'm hoping more people are willing to break and open the door for conversations. Vulnerability is a hard concept for many to grasp and apply to him but you guys gave him an outlet to feel comfortable enough to speak on his story and I greatly appreciate it.

I truly hope he can know how many people he is helping to be themselves and go for the things they love even if others tell them it's impossible. I wish to one day put on the mask and go out and achieve my goals just like Dream has
