Patreon Update

Love your videos and reckless fish is so cute. Your new place will be great I like the wall too. Tell reckless fish I got a couple of enchanted goldfish that would love to meet him I'll send pics if I can figure out how to send them. Keep up the wonderful work.

Linda

I hope HeckelFish made it out of LA!

Mike Shields

Good for you getting the hell out of Los Angeles! If “peaceful protestors” peacefully protesting looks like that did then I would certainly hate to see what violent evil protestors look like! If you ask the media republican of all shades and sexes are the violent ones. Unreal how skewed our worlds view has become. “Steps off soapbox” Thanks for the content A.J. I think it’s about the best channel of this content by far. Keep it coming mane, also tell Mr. Heckle Fish I said SUCK IT!

Joshua

There’s always some bumps on the road.

Seth Reed

I'm late to the party, but thanks for the behind-the-scenes peek. I for one actually like the walls but I grew up in the 70s.

David Alan Gay

Glad you got out of LA. Hopefully out of Cali all together...

Indrid Cole

me too

Carolyne

Sorry, just new here! I may have missed something as I'm outside the US. I'm happy to hear you're ok (and your family too), this might explain the delay in merchandise being shipped. I can see some great potential with the new setup! Take care, stay safe and watch those "peaceful" protesters with baseball bats! Don't give up because you're better than that!

Plinkster

Any view is better than the view of a "peaceful" protestor lighting the adjacent building on fire and then said "peaceful' protestor chasing you with a baseball bat. Buy hey... Give Peace a chance....

JT Mode

This was my birthday 🥳 thanks for the update AJ. Hope the move goes smoothly.

Felene Pollard

i dig the weird wall

Zanythos

We need to have a Texas Meet and Greet. Just an Idea.

Kevin Via

If you need help moving, I'm busy. But on the upside I appreciate the update.

Kevin Via

Love it! Quick question…is hecklefish helping with the rent? He should pull his own weight.

Sketchy Guy NV

Good luck my friend and be safe.

TC

The studio is going to look awesome once you're all settled in.

Rothschild

Good luck I’m sure it will turn out great you have to take care of yourself first thanks for the update

John Hardy

I'm confused... didn't you say some videos ago you were living in a town near Dallas, TX? Any how, I can notice you're pretty overwhelmed. I have to make a big move in 1 year and already feel overwhelmed. But it all pass and soon you'll be back on track. Drink a lot of diet Coke! And don't worry with schedules. Be happy!

Paula Soto Maior

I’m a new Patreon sub. You had to leave stuff because of protesting, eh?! Wow! That’s super scary! The location looks great. Hecklefish has plenty of room to do whatever it is he does there. I would love to move to Vegas. You could have just come joined me here in South Orange County. We’re friendly, but it’s not the best place for unique culinary establishments. Best of luck in your new digs.

DS_the_RN

So in short you're moving up? I noticed your subscribers are WAYYY up since I've been watching. I'm really happy to see that. And rest assured, it will all be worth it.

Kim Dabney

I'll give it another enrollment try this weekend. Tx.

MikeD

crazy world AJ, I had no idea… I’m sure everything will be great! lets us know if there is anything else to help, hang in there BTW your hair still looks great 👍

Mauricio Carrillo Tripp

Good luck in the new digs (wherever they are)! BTW, those "horrible tacky walls" may have been put up to break up standing audio waves (room resonances). Certainly helpful if they're actually doing that.

Mike Christian

;-) you’re awesome

Victoria

Hang in AJ, just keep swimming

William Cook

I'd help you if I lived around. It will come around though :)

Lucas Walicki

Wishing you nothing but good luck 🤞 and hoping you get everything up and running soon.

Geoff Lewis

By the way we're was heckle fish

John Sheridan

I see the potential, and thank goodness you are safe. There are still protests going on in LA??? I am just glad you got out. What a relief!! And if you are up for suggestions, I would use the tacky wall as a background, if it was in a different color such as white or black, or maybe even red. Be safe, I can wait. After what you have been through I am surprised you haven't given up.

Marie Duran

When you get here, if you need help with anything let me know!

The Guy with a Mic

Lol....it WILL get better. Know you are loved ! (Hecklefish too)

Kim M.-RebelliousRaven

You're right AJ, it's gonna be amazing!!!

19BiGRED74

Dude!!! Great job! I know that has to be so stressful, but I hope you can take comfort in the fact that you are creating amazing content that entertains us beyond your expectations! Keep up the great work. If I lived in your area I would help you for free! - Dave

David Eugene

I think the only state he is in is disarray lol

Chase Schleich

Thank you for taking us on the Lord Hecklefish Studios tour!

Chase Schleich

AJ, We love you, and if we could we would reach out to help, so please let us know what we can do to help. I know money always helps, so ask for it. Ask for donation to the new curtain fund or the rug fund, set up a list and see if the folks want to help. We are on your side, so please let us help. Please unpack Hecklefish. I will even contribute to a bigger tank for him. See ya

John Edgeworth

I know your tired, but enjoy the journey. Good or bad your going to look back and laugh. I have the patience of a zen master waiting on your videos. Sending you good positive vibes to get you through the day my friend!

Jeremy Mccary

Loved the tour. Hope you got out of CA. Stay safe and god save the republic. -text, history and tradition shall not be infringed!

Neal Goggins

So much potential man! Glad you got out of LA! You got this and we're here for you.

scott considine

There's a quote I love - "Aren’t I lucky, to have survived so much bad luck" I want to do what I can to help, so I upped my tier (I may need to lower it later, but I can certainly keep it up until I retire (only 468 days away :) ) And I did a thank you on youtube (I'm Pat I on youtube) which might have a positive influence on your youtube ranking? As Leslie Nielson said so eloquently in "Airplane" - "Good luck, we're all counting on you!"

Patrick Innmon

Ok, AJ, you'll have to tell us what state you're in at least! I'm sorry that happened to you in Hollywierd, but you know that almost all the people that hang around there are from the other 49 states, right? Take care of yourself, we can wait for you to settle in and make it what you want it to be. You're the Best.

Kazren

Hope all is well. Thanks for the update I had no idea.

Matt Olivo

What a nice message! Thank you for reaching out! I LOL’d at the “peaceful protestors”

Christopher Mays

Nice big patio for BBQ, and BBQ makes everything better.

Christopher Mays

I hope you can get all that stuff working and functional, what a hassle. Still enjoying your videos so take all the time you need to get everything together. Hope you and the family are well.

Ed E

Uff da. That looks like quite a project! I hope all goes as well as possible because goodness that's a lot of work to be done. Thank you for the update- be well!

Angela Clifford

It’s not the destination but the journey that rewards. Enjoy, I know you will! Is that Queens? Lol

Mark william lane

I genuinely love this channel and all it stands for, you are all amazing and you have a very bright future… once I’m in a position to help I’ll be upping my payments.

Patch

Peaceful protesters... I'd laugh at the irony if it wasn't so awful. But thank you for the video. It's fun to get a chance look behind the curtain.

Aaron Parks

Anything worth doing is never easy and the end result is the reward !! I enjoy what you do and I know others do as well . SO we'll be here waiting to see the end product when it's ready to go . Until then , keep up the work

Randoir

Hold your breath. Make a wish. Count to three. It *is* gonna be great.

Chris Overstreet

Hey, AJ, you take care of what you need to and let us know when you can - 'cause we do want to know - when you can spare the time. These are good growing pains that will be better when that potential you see becomes the reality. I'm glad you got away from those peaceful protesters then obviously (fires and baseball bats???) and now with the move. Thanks for the update and any you can find time to bestow upon us. I more than feel my money is well spent here - if that doesn't sound too pretentious.

Vince In Houston

John Sheridan

Keep going it will all work out what a hoot

John Sheridan

No worries AJ. Those of us who know what is going on get it, Moving Sucks. Just plugging away at it.

Jeff Pierce

Don't burn yourself out too much! We appreciate all the work you put in for the channel and can't wait to see how you do once you're all settled in

Jacob Schopp

So fitting that the sirens could be heard😂

Dizzle McShizzle

That view though!

Mischa Aponte

When you panned past the toilet, I thought you were going to say, “heckle fish is chilling out in there”

AMATSWOLF

AJ you got this! One of the many reasons you are loved ( and HK of course ) is your channel relies on the core of the content and your commentary for us to be entertained. WF? Is not a flashy channel and I hope it never is…I’ll take your back and forth with Heckle any day over some of these other high production pages. Relax and take a breather and know that you are loved.

Noah Laughton

Hope Hecklefish made the trip ok!! Having just moved recently I feel your pain

Jeff Brown

I just left Vegas recently, a lot of people with short tempers and a lot of blame. Whatever you do, don't be in a hurry if you're going somewhere.

Matt Curley

Too bad you dont know a guy who's done interior buildouts, studios and live AV installations professionally who works nationally...

Seth Forrestier

HA! Between you and me... I added that siren in the edit for dramatic flair. 🐠😉

The Why Files

Thanks Adrian! The HVAC guy was here yesterday and said everything's fine. Just need a new thermostat. Cool. Done. New thermostat is in and working. Still no head and AC. We'll see what the next reason is...

The Why Files

Ha! Thanks for supporting, LP! That mug is going to start more than a few conversations.

The Why Files

Try this Mike: https://thewhyfiles.com/discord

The Why Files

Thanks Big E.

The Why Files

Great idea on the Death Star set! Here's the discord link... see you there: https://thewhyfiles.com/discord

The Why Files

You already are by being here, Carolyne. 🐠❤

The Why Files

He is a bit of a day drinker.

The Why Files

Always frosty, sir!

The Why Files

Great things have humble beginnings ! I hope the rest of your move goes off well AJ !

Hitesh

That shirt is definitely a conversation starter!

The Why Files

Outstanding AJ keep pushing forward!

Duke

Moving sucks, but that actually looks like a pretty cool place as long as you’re not hearing those sirens all night

Brad & Evan

Honestly not bad at all for a vlog style video! Hope you get the heat and AC fixed so you can work in comfort!

Adrian Kemp

AJ, It sounds like you know how to make the best of anything. I mean, being chased by people with baseball bats? You provide inspiration, and that’s why I enjoy your show! BTW, I brought my “Hecklefish for President” mug to work and it became a FANFAV in the office. 🥳

AnonHere

OMG. No a/c in Vegas sounds potentially nightmarish. Like the show, I'm sure your vision for the studio will be great, so looking forward to the update video once you reach it. BTW Can't get into Discord. Who do I message? I'm in an endless loop of identifying cupcakes. Kind of hungry now.

MikeD

Nice place, just relax and enjoy the change. You are great.

Edgard Abd

AJ, I can see what it will become there bud :-) Especially with those walls that could make for a great "Death Star" style background. Moving does suck, but much like a forest fire, it's very cathartic and cleansing, and makes way for amazing blossoms afterwards. I do have one question though, I have seen it mentioned everywhere in some form or another, but was is the whole "Discord" situation about? And yes it's true I don't get out much...

C.D. Strahle

i wish i could help

Carolyne

i guess hecklefish must have been out at the bar while you were working on all this?

Alice Geus

"I can see dirt..."...hahahaha, great space though, you are very blessed my friend, you are never late bro, always right on time, stay frosty

Drew Shourd

Good luck AJ and Heckle. I got my new WF? T-Shirt this week (I’m in the U.K.) but have still been wearing it in the cold. It’s a great talking point and people ask why a goldfish is wearing a tin hat! Going to have to get a new mug now.

Chris Godfrey

Good luck with the move! Looks like you're half-way there!

Ian Lane

I had a brain fart moment and forgot your video background is the classic conspiracy board. I thought you were going down a rabbit hole 😅 Hope the rest of the move goes smoothly and Hecklefish doesn't get too jostled.

Kira Stoyko

i love you

Carolyne

Smith's Law... Murphy was an optimist

ed pluck

Moving sucks, hang in there! Hope it all goes easy for you.
