Thank You Video/Update #1

Dude, your segment with Joe Rogan, renaissance man, was inspiring. Evolve, grow, and create--that is human.

Fredrick Dominikus

Awesome dude. I wish you all the best and I am super eager to see where this new chapter takes you <3

John_Withington

Awesome man. Really can't wait to see the first stuff come out in April.

lazer_josh

Its there now

There’s No I in LLC

Yeah what happened to that? I thought I saw a notification for it this morning.

episode of JRE with Colin is now gone from the internet!

Looking really forward for april 3rd. Just some guy from Switzerland who is really enjoying the work you have done and I want support the things you will do. I'm ready to learn - together with the community.

I am glad the patreon is a huge success too. Just wondering though, as per an october 2014 video you said you wanted to retire as soon as possible. Does this goal seem more attainable now, or does doing what you love now trump that?

Joseph Ady

Glad the Patreon is such a success. Good for you Colin 👍

Yeah I know but 2 hours will satiate me now I don't get my 0-3 hours a week with him from KF. Being completely selfish I know, maybe I should be less of a (whatever the word is for someones who consumes all the content but never posts or engages with the community) and fill the void with coming on here to discuss stuff. Its not about video games and Colin, it's just Colin content I'm after! 😖.

For quality video game content we have Noclip, please check it out. For politics and history we have CLS, if the vision pans out...

I think he is going for quality, not quantity here Jimi...

I live in the UK and since the early Beyond! days have loved the Colin/Greg combo. I was genuinely gutted when I heard Colin had left Kinda Funny and it genuinely put me on a downer as for me Colin's topics and thoughts on the shows were the highlight for me. More than happy to back Colin in his new venture and I hope the financial support he has received means he can pump out more content than originally envisioned.... I think I need at least two hours of Colin a week (On Podcast/MP3) to feel the void I have..... Pllllleeeeeaaaasssse Colin!

I have been a fan of yours for a fee years now, and you have been the one person who has actually made politics and history interesting to me. Cant wait to see what your future holds.

Tom sweeney eats babies whole

I can't wait

Good luck with everything Colin. I'm most interested in hearing your opinion on current politics. You are the man!

I thought I was a fan of KF, but it was Colin being on there giving some context and real thought to topics. Now it will be an echo chamber of unchallenged ideas from one side. I wish those guys the best of luck in the future I just can't listen without Colin to balance it out a little.

James Galos

Colin Was Right was very interesting and informative, and if that was doing something you were losing passion for, I'm very confident in the content you will produce moving forward.

I think the intro text says there will be YouTube monetization

Will the YT videos have monetization turned on or off (just curious as I'm a YT Red sub)? I know NoClip went the "Off" route but rarely anyone does that.

Colby Perry

Love this type of shot-from-the-hip video update, a day in the life... Looking forward to the LA studio, and some more Colin &amp; Rubin Live.

Jeremy Meyer

I never thought I would support a Patreon campaign, I was a fan of KF, but more specifically of Colin. I told myself numerous times that I could listen to Colin talk politics and history for hours, and as he has said before it was time to put my money where my mouth was. This isn't just support for Colin this support for those that are being attacked for thinking "differently" than what the mainstream media/Hollywood is telling to think. Good luck Colin and I look forward to your videos.

Glad you're approaching this realistically Colin. 2 videos a week of the caliber that you're talking about being done all by yourself is about the most that can reasonably be expected, and anyone who has ever done video production will know that. Like you said, it may make sense for you to hire a production team in the future to ease the burden on you, but I think you're absolutely right in saying that you want to sort of figure this out for yourself first before you go through all of that. Very much looking forward to April 3rd!

Nick

If you don't mind me asking, what is the percentage of liberals to conservatives in Canada? I'm a little curious because Canada (at least where I'm from) has a reputation for being extremely liberal.

I wish I could pledge more than $5 a month but my finances are what they are. I'm a Canadian who identifies as a liberal and I love hearing your point of view on politics and American/World issues. I wish you all the best with Colin's Last Stand and I am excited to watch you begin!

There is no doubt in my mind that you will succeed. Sic parvis magna!

I'm a student but my family is happy for me to be supporting you on Patreon as for me it really enhances my knowledge :)

Good luck Colin! I have one suggestion with your discussions, please don't say things like "it's clearly the case" and "you can't dispute" when making arguments. I love your discussions but when you start adding statements like that it makes it very hard to keep listening. Love your input and hope everything pans out for you.

Michael

Thanks for the update, like many have said already we are 100% with you on this journey and understand that this is a new venture being created from the ground up. Good luck with the move as well - seems like a perfect fit for the type of content you want to create.

Still pissed im not getting an occasional back rub

Congratulations Colin! I'm sure it will be overwhelming in the coming months to produce content while moving. I think I can speak for most of the fans when saying we understand and will be here supporting you while you get setup and settled. I truly cannot wait to see the thought provoking content I know you will create.

Already looking much happier than you did a few weeks ago, very excited to see what this new endeavor in life has to offer you. I stand with Colin!

Fuck em up Alf!!

Kevin Almanzar

Congratulations Colin! I vote for a podcast cast version as well. Like to listen while driving.

I'm so excited for this because it's something new and it's who you are. I love history and do want to get into politics and be up to date with it. What better way to LEARN then from you. Best of luck, can't wait.

The first time I heard you speak of history and politics ive wanted this show. It's not even out, and I'm behind it 100%. Whatever you put out will be better than mainstream news. You got this, Colin. And you already have a small army to back you up.

We are with you Colin, can't wait for the content, and definitely going to continue to support as you get going get settled in and and get the studio up and running. We're with ya, let's do this.

I hope a portion of my proceeds go to Lola. Maybe a little Bark Box action.

Eventually would love too see you interviewing people and asking interesting questions, can't wait to see what's too come, keep up the great work Colin

Hey Colin - Still trying to find out - will you be uploading the audio to podcast services. I loved listening to you in the car, would like to continue to do so.

Owen

I am extremely glad that you're not trying to increase your output as a result of the Patreon support. As you know, it would have been a mistake. I think making two quality videos a week is VERY ambitious for one person. Good luck, and I'm excited to see where this goes!

Stigma

I'm gonna be honest i'm a little dissapointed that we won't see you talk about games anymore but i respect you for wanting to do what your passionate about and while i'm not big into politics you have always made me interested by what you had to say on gog about the election etc. Going into this with an open mind and can't wait to see what you put out there!

Colin, I've been waiting for you to do a show like this for years. Beyond excited to see this finally become a reality.

I'm really excited for this to be something to look forward to! Colin was right was becoming that every week, and this will be even more exciting as it's something you are even more fired up about!

When you started talking about the dogs barking it just broke me. :) I can't wait for the content.

Very happy for you Colin, on to new adventures and more dogs for you to yell at!

I'm so excited for the future. I know I might be in the minority here, but it's kind of refreshing that gaming isn't the focus. History is so cool and contains so many great stories. Can't wait to hear Colin's take on everything.

This is fantastic. Congrats and good luck to you and Erin, we believe in you.

Brad Russell [Toukz]

Congratulations to you and Erin Colin! You are an incredible person, someone who I admire a great deal and a driving force behind my desire to study history, politics, and to change our education system for the better. I am happy to support your new endeavor and look forward to all the places you will go. Good Luck

Welcome to LA Colin! Hope you'll love it here.

VanguardDuelist

Awesome post. Congrats on all your success and can't wait for what is next

Hey C MO, hit up Masa at Echo Park in LA for some dope deep dish pizza

Very happy to hear you're getting out of SF!

That stupid dog!!! lol

Luke

So excited for the future of the CLS community!!! And Friday cant come soon enough, Ive been wanting to see Joe and Colin sit down for soooo long. Also you should partner with Declaration Clothing for CLS merch!!! Id love to rep some sweet gear. Thank you!

Hell yeah!!!

Brandon O'Toole

Awesome Colin I'm excited to see what comes!

TheStarWars

COLIN! COLIN! COLIN! COLIN!

I've gotta jump on the bandwagon here. It's a breath of fresh air to see Colin excited about what he's doing. You can almost feel how passionate he is about this. Let the games begin!

Colin is energized! I don't think he stopped to take a breath once during that video. I dig it.

Michael Trees

Cool, thanks for the update! Hope all your new equipment and the move works out well - so happy for you!

Lotiuss

Congratulations, Colin! I'm very excited you guys are moving to LA. I'm an east coaster that has been living in LA for 10 years now. If you know the right areas it really is a fantastic city. I don't know if private messages are possible here, but if you have any questions as far as area recommendations feel free to reach out. However, I'm sure Rubins got hooked up with the insider info. Take care, man.

Brian C

Happy that you are starting anew, Colin. A change of scenery will probably inspire you to put out the best work you have ever done in your life.

Appreciate the video. Love the support, and don't expect more than the two just because more people like the idea of hearing your thoughts. I like that you are going to use it to get better equipment, and to make sure your new place has a decent studio/working space, but beyond that, I don't expect you to suddenly be hiring people and begin producing more content - what you make is what I'm here for. Thanks for the hard work, and I look forward to seeing what you have to say.

I think you should do however much you feel you can make as a quality product. You've earned our support already by being you and making people think and question and learn, and even besides all that, you've put the work in for years. You deserve everything you're getting and I can't wait to see what's to come. fuck em up alf.

Kenneth thomas

Awesome, Colin! Keep on doing it! LA is awesome, I live there. You'll enjoy it.

Khalil Sadi

Congratulations, I do hope you get a chance to do a weekly podcast. Your off the cuff commentary and conversation truly shows off your knowledge and understanding of the world around you.

I'm so happy you are leaving SF... We all know you have wanted that for a long time and I'm glad this series of events got you out of there. Best of luck, and I will continue to support you.

Ryan Dachel

Move to Colorado!! Haha Great to see you so happy man it's a total 360° change from the times I've watched you before.. I'm so happy and proud of you!

Loved in LA for a bit, just watch your step cuz there's piss and crap all over the sidewalks ;) haha Travel safe you guys and Godspeed!

Brock Smith

I'm so excited about your new adventure and I can't wait to be along for the ride... just please can you think about getting a new iPhone lol. The camera on it is so 2010 lol... so pumped for you bud!!!!

I love LA, buy a house have a studio in your house no apartment

Hose A Contra Razz

Colin i need to know. What are your thoughts on John Locke?

Really appreciate the update videos and keeping us in the loop, very glad the support has been so much as well, we got your back Colin, cant wait to see the content.

Seth Eden

I think it's clear we're happy you're happy and excited about your content. Thanks.

Brandon Kirzeder

But Colin, you hate LA...

Do your thing, keep up the honest content! Best of luck.

I am very excited for you Colin, I am just hopeful that you and kinda funny are actually still friends.

Awesome! See you on April 3rd. Colin 2020

Thanks for the update! You seem genuinely more excited about the future then I've seen from u in a while, good luck!

Chase Moroni

This makes me think a blooper reel could be utilized as filler content.

Thanks for the update dude can't wait to see you 3/4/17

Good luck to you and Erin! I'm eager to go on this journey with you!

The barking dog must have been an extremist trying to silence your free speech.

GrisWold Diablo

You're welcome Colin! You're doing an amazing job, keep it up!

Thank YOU and congrats again! Stoked to see you this thrilled about the new venture. Can't wait to see all of the shiny new gear!! And shout out to Erin's camera work, nailed it. Best of luck to the both of you (and Lola) in LA ❤

Mike Towndrow

Also, good luck to Erin and yourself on the move.

Fuckin love it.

Justin Latham

Colin, that dog barked a little too long. I am hereby canceling my Patreon. I'M JOKING!!! Much love and glad you're moving out of San Francisco!

Thank you Colin, those damn dogs tho 😂

Jason

I love that you still have that comedic touch. I love your dry humor, and your humor in general. You sir are a very funny man. Keep fighting the good fight.

Can't wait to be able to learn a little more about history and politics on April 3rd

Keep up the great work, and thank YOU Colin. I'm already impressed with the discussions that I've seen on the first thread. Can't wait to learn from everyone through open discussions with attacks like a normal YouTube comments section.

Fred Bence

Can't wait to see you get into full gear once your videos take off. I'm ecstatic of your future move to LA. I smell many a collaboration coming in the future.

ChristianLikeTheReligion

You're welcome glad to support you! Keep fighting the good fight!
