Bringus Studios had a video yesterday on the alpha I Dec kit for the original devkit. Not only was the segway pretty slick but it had his signature humor included which actually made me watch through half the ad. First time I didn’t skip the sponsor which I think says something about his writing and delivery
I whitelist tomatoanus in sponsorblock just to follow his ad-read lore. Thats peak advertising.
SomeMoreNews often gets me
Advertising shits in your brain.
For me it’s calebcity
Even though he reuses a particular gag format in his ad segments, I do like TheWhyFiles ads
StyroPyro: “btw this table I’ve been using for the video? It’s great, they sent it to me free. Watch me try to light it on fire!!”
How can you skip that?!
PS: big F U to US health insurance industry: I’m sick in a bizarre and horrifying way
Insurance company : Oh you paid for insurance but we won’t cover your costs
Finally claims insurance after months of waiting
Hospital : You have an insurance so the bill is 8x higher but no you don’t need to pay all of them half is paid by insurance not you only have to pay 4x the money without insurance
but you have to pay the full amount anyway and go through insurance because you have a deductible that needs to be met because your annual physical isn’t supposed to happen until November when you get time off around Thanksgiving but you don’t want to have to pay the full non-insured price of this and not count it to your deductible when you KNOW that you’ll have to pay the full cost of that primary care visit and your 45-year-old colonoscopy coming up and everything is terrible.
I don’t mind these when they’re done right!!
“Hi, I’m the Adstronaght…”
I like him because his ads are funny (like his skits) AND after his skits so you don’t have to watch.
maven is great even on the sponser parts
I barely watched any of them, but Sampson Boat Co (the people rebuilding Tally Ho) put together some moderately high-effort sponsor segments, with a melodramatic plot and hammy acting and costumes made out of construction materials and such.
Internet Historian’s ads are also hilarious and worth watching.
Ironic, considering those ad segments are the only original content…
I guess he… dug his own hole on that one.
YES
MapMen. I still rewatch some of their ad skits just because they were catchy and fun.
The sponsor ads work when they’re neatly aligned aligned with the video’s concept. It wouldn’t budge me to see a manufacturer sponsor a PC build video where one of their products are being used. Or channels like GradeA where they advertise the sponsors in a similar way to their vids.
What breaks it is when you can feel the ad clearly feels like a last minute insert (which it feels like almost all the time). Even the bigger creators out there do this.
Ad is an ad. Fuck them.
So anyway, has any of you motherfuckers heard about Raids Shadow Legends?
this is Drew Gooden and The Yard for me. i have whitelisted them on sponsorblock because their ad reads are so fucking funny. also obligatory shoutout to Internet Comment Etiquette
Love seeing on the timeline where right after the ad is the ‘most played’
Ordinary Sausage occasionally makes the ads amusing.
