Bonus #124 - Intellivision: The System So Nice It Failed Twice | Nerd Rants

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/V2nxMzZ00eAOne of the questions I get every now and then is "Buckley, would you ever do another Nerd Rants?" and my answer is "if you look at my Patreon, I've done like... 10 new episodes of Nerd Rants really, they're just not called that!" Just in the last 4 or so months I've done bonus videos about Wordle, Twitch users promoting adult content by gaming their system, the outrage from Jeopa...

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/qsdFB-iPk48Hey, how about that, it's Friday... and of course, happy Memorial Day Weekend to my American friends! This is often the first weekend of the year that many go camping or plan some family barbeques, and the weather almost always decides not to cooperate.

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/5-1Wo-cMW-4Happy Friday everyone, and as promised it's the second of two Musical Autopsies this week! (If you haven't yet, go check out the Patreon exclusive one that I uploaded on Tuesday) This song is currently number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, previously peaking at number 3.

EARLY ACCESS: iDubbbz Creator Clash: "Respectful" Influencer Boxing?

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/4CdacWhEZL0Well everyone, it's Friday, and uh oh Buckley's going to start some drama with a "YouTuber"! I mean, probably not, but anyway this week we look at the iDubbbz "Creator Clash" boxing event, yet ANOTHER one of these boxing events where a bunch of people who've never boxed in their lives put on gloves and slap each other around. And if you don't really care about boxing, or what...

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/gz2SJRJubegHi, it's Tuesday, yeah yeah, let's get right to it...

I'm doing a Musical Autopsy: Cold Case in a couple weeks, and right here you get your...

EARLY ACCESS: Advice No One Asked For - Number Forty-Four

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/Dimi7miv8gcHey everyone, it's Early Access day! It's been a little while since I've done an Advice No One Asked For, and so with a bit of a lull in the action in terms of topical world events I really want to talk about, now seemed like as good a time as any to release this one!

EARLY ACCESS: Elon Musk Won't "Fix" Twitter

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/moeSKBmYbEgHey everyone, it's Friday, and how about this, ANOTHER video that's actually pretty current?! Yes, here's another story that I felt was too big to ignore, this whole "Elon Musk buying Twitter" thing that has dominated social media for the last week. Now, I should say that I don't care if he buys it or not, BUT I would like him to not have any actual deal or refusal go through until a...

Bonus #117 - Buckley vs Buckley: Calling in Sick

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/NO6QGahX23wThere's a famous quote by a man named E.T. Bell that goes: "Time makes fools of us all. Our only comfort is that greater shall come after us". Basically, on a long enough timeline, we're basically all wrong, and someone else will correct our mistakes. With Buckley vs Buckley, I get to look back and say "has time already made a fool of me, and could this be greater now, while I'm stil...

Bonus #116 - Twitch Let Users Pay to Promote... Y'know... (Extra Dose)

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/tTcgk5poQUQHey everyone, it's Bonus Dose Day! In my recent Q&A here on Patreon, someone asked me "are there topics you avoid because of YouTube's rules?" (I'm paraphrasing) and while I said I can't think of any specifically, there are topics I tend to save for Patreon because I think giving them to a wider audience might result in someone stumbling across it and getting upset by it. THIS is one...

EARLY ACCESS: Using GIFs = Digital Blackface?!

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/hbGs-G8vvVoCongrats, you've survived another week! Your reward? You get to watch this weekend's video before everyone else!

Q&A - April 2022

It's the April Q&A Post! This experiment worked out fairly well for the first month (which, if you missed, you can find March 2022's Q&A here), so we're going to continue on with it. If you have a question for me, be it serious or silly, post it and I'll try to answer it at some point this month (I think I answered every single question last month). Ask me about events that maybe I didn't comment on in a video that you thought...

Bonus #115 - Dolly Parton vs The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (Extra Dose)

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/TEm4D3srtDwHey everyone, it's Tuesday and it's Bonus Dose Day! In honor of The Grammys over the weekend (which was pretty uneventful compared to the Oscars, and also had its second lowest TV ratings of all time) I thought this would be a good week for a music-based video about another award ceremony that people often argue about: The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony. Enjoy!Over the last several years, The Roc...

EARLY ACCESS: Will Smith vs Chris Rock: A Hairy Situation

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/2rkILdezDCkYes... it's April Fools' Day today, but last year I decided to pretty much "retire" my annual April Fools video, and although it may come back again some day, this is not that day. So, be on the lookout for dumb fakeout posts as various entertainment news sites try and "getcha" with some joke like "Nintendo purchased by Microsoft!" or some nonsense.No, today's video is ve...

Bonus #114 - Twitter: Where Comedy Goes to Die (Extra Dose)

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/8ciZ6gtG-egHey, it's Tuesday! Anything interesting happen this weekend? No? Nothing that everyone's been obsessively discussing on social media for the last 72 hours? Oh ok then.The chances of me discussing the Will Smith/Chris Rock incident this weekend is PRETTY HIGH, but in the meantime, enjoy this video I made a couple weeks ago that just so happens to be somewhat relevant today, as we look at people who c...

EARLY ACCESS: A Dating App For Crypto Bros

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/HCnXn3SDn5gHey everyone, it's Friday, and for some of you that means spending a little extra time with your significant other, while for some of you single folk out there it may mean going on a date with someone you recently met, or heading out to your local bar/club/whatever to find love. But for people who invest in Crypto and NFTs, they don't have time for that! Not with so many monkey photos left unpurchas...

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/cOkJPw5XIToWell would you look at that, it's Tuesday! Which means it's time for this week's Bonus video.

EARLY ACCESS: Hey TikTokers: The World Is NOT Your Playground

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/_15qYk6DS4MThe week's (basically) over, and it's time for your early access to the weekend Dose! Now, I absolutely hate "prank" videos. I hated them when they became popular on YouTube, and since TikTok seems to be following a similar evolutionary path as YouTube, it was only inevitable that people would start doing them there. So you might notice me sounding a little angrier than usual when I tell you...

Bonus #112 - Buckley Reads Tweets From Kevin Sorbo

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/o8eEDHrPGU8Hey everyone, it's bonus video day and this week I'm bringing back a classic... although I've done some form of "[social media] rainbow" somewhat recently, I don't even remember the last time I did a "Tweeting Rainbow". Well, time to fix that, as we look at the feed of prominent Twitter goofball and occasional sci fi and comic convention guest, Kevin Sorbo. Enjoy!Everyone&#39...

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/d-PVUBPdozMHey how about that, we made it to another weekend! Your reward... an early viewing of this week's Dose!

Enjoy!At the beginning of the year, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki released a blog post that basically no one read, outlining their "priorities for 2022". And buried deep within that very l...

Bonus #111 - The Passion of the Wordle (Extra Dose)

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/tcPKAvYpPAgIt's Tuesday, it's Bonus Dose day, and unlike last week we're being selfish, this one's just for you! This week, we're talking about Wordle. You play it, or your friends play it and you hate them because they keep posting those green and yellow squares in your feed. Either way, you probably have an opinion on the game, even if you don't know what the game is! Here's the video des...
