he seems so comfortable with being uncomfortable real or not if you can achieve that comfort and mentality with yourself he should expect to have people envy him
A lot of people waiting to be discovered have his personality type - say yes to EVERY opportunity - see what happens. so I get why he's there! it got him subs & views so it was a well worth investment on his part! he has an easy going nice personality, so even more kudos to him!
Thats a good sign that there is someone with a half decent brain trapped inside this guy. This is what happens to a person when their parent doesn't guide them in any meaningful way and neglects their duties to educate their child. This man has severe arrested development, that's the only reason he acts weird, but nobody understands why. Take it from someone who has gone through it to a MUCH lesser degree. You don't act awkward like that when you have a normal upbringing, he doesn't even know how fucked up his childhood probably was because he's been brainwashed into thinking this is normal. Now he embraces his anti social disorder for views, which in my opinion is a horrible, shrill way of living, stop encouraging his stupid behavior. He could claim it's all an act one day, but that's only part of the truth. Now he's purposefully turned himself into a spectacle for idiots to gawk and awe at, it's all disgusting, greedy, nonsense.
Brett is such a bro. Dax: "Hey do you want to be on a Game Show?" Brett: "Heck yeah! What's the rules?" Dax: "I don't know, I didn't think I'd get this far." Brett: "Cool, just hit me up whenever." Then he actually shows up!
it's crazy, when it's generic, walking up to someone on the street for something you need is easy enough, but when it's asking multiple people for something 99/100 people will say no to, it's like learning to swim in the middle of the ocean for some reason. A whole other type of terrifying.
Same, I always imagined Ian for the persona he puts on with all his other videos. But it's definitely great that he's seeming to open up more with what he's actually like, which is why I was pretty surprised to see this side of him.
I just died laughing after getting to that part and just checked the comment to see if anyone else had the same reaction it, friggin' hilarious timing 🤣
The housekeeper lady just going to work one day and ending up on a game show pilot is the most LA thing I’ve heard in a while. Dax seems to pull good, authentic people into his orbit. I feel like part of the “act” is his screening process for friends.
Dax really would excel at doing this kind of man-on-the-street style content where he just awkwardly tries to interview people. It kinda gave me old Tom Green Show vibes seeing him try to approach people.
@@remotecabinstudios the Hot Seat kicks ass. IDubbbz is behind the scenes producing it, but Dax is an absolute treasure. I can’t tell if Ian was as big of a part of Dax’s resurgence on RUclips, but i think he does deserve major credit due to this video. Dax’s recent work with Joel Haver in the last year or so has been absolutely amazing. I’m sooo happy to see this enigma back and at it on RUclips. I do think he’s a genius, not just an awkward guy.
@@DruNatureyes Kyle Mooney has a character and Dax is that person in reality lol, I don’t think Dax could put on a convincing character that well. He’s just been himself this whole time.
Hes a great example of autism not necessarily being a disorder (in the literal sense). Hes a perfectly functional human who happens to think a different way
Everyone needs a friend like Dax. That “Maybe you can try one more time just to challenge yourself?” was so fucking warm and genuine. People need that honesty in their lives.
I like how you said everyone needs a friend like him, not to simply be more like him. I mean that's fair. Maybe more ice-cream store owners should be hiring and promoting guys like him and having them host their in-store game shows. You can't get a robot that'll do that (yet), can you?
Ever since the "Full Force" documentary, I hoped to see another type of documentary covering certain RUclipsrs who've had made an impact on the site. This is incredible.
I love the guy who was just like “fuck yeah let’s make some smoothies” and went along with it laughing and smiling...he seemed so wholesome and really chill
*Leticia* needs more credit for how she at the last minute decided to fill in for a contestant and actually turned out to be a decently confident contestant at that.
Dax radiates charisma. It doesn't matter how you look at him, he is so genuine that you will feel drawn to him and appreciate his approach to things in life. His speech is very gentle and he didn't put pressure on either of the contestants during the show. It was awesome.
the immense awkwardness of the gameshow was actually very entertaining. Having the contestants confused and uncomfortable was a unique perspective lol. I could definitely see this premise become popular and Dax is the perfect host lmaoooo
Out of all those people they interviewed trying to get them on the show BRETT was the only nice guy and he went along with everything he seems like a great guy!
It's better than the damn unboxing shit. Maybe Ian's moving past his FilthyFrank equivalent era. I've always wanted him to focus more on the interesting shit, rather than mind numbing boxes of useless crap. He's putting his money to good use with these documentaries.
@mod channel Sure, to each his own. For me some of it was entertaining, but most of it made me want to exit my own body. I did enjoy the odd patter with the Japanese dude that sent him weird crap though, that was kinda fun.
@@dougthemoleman That unboxing shit is what made him who he is. Gotta admire his progression and the way he adapts to RUclips. Unlike a certain youtuber that got layed to rest and came back just to talk shit when someone was vulnerable;)
I don't think I've ever seen someone with so much comedic talent without even trying to do a bit. I don't feel like I'm laughing at him or with him. I would just watch a channel with him just going out and talking to people on the street. What a genuine guy, no wonder he's so lovable. More Smoothie Madness please
That's why it is so conceivable that he would be playing a part even though he is not. Like, the fact that the pictures he gave to the interviewer to put into this video of him as a young adult traveling the world, the fact that they were BLURRY. Like that alone made me spit my drink out.
No it's definitely half and half. His presence in Joel Havers skits convinced me he is just normally awkward but is also aware of that and utilizing it.
Matt Clayton Content Cop was great but it thrived in an era of RUclips where drama was rampant and everyone was in a battle royale for popularity and relevance. IDubbbz has since become comfortable with his current space on RUclips and has decided to shift to a more creatively liberating form of content that allows him to create an engaging story and provide new perspective on some of the notable figures of the online world.

The og Smosh crew's takes on Dax were incredibly intriguing. If I had only seen his videos in a vacuum I would think he was just a brilliant actor. But I've come away thinking that he's just being himself, but also has enough self awareness to embrace and amplify his natural personality.
He just started popping up again for me. After seeing this video I definitely do think he might be the best actor ever 😭 but also he might be genuine it’s so hard to tell
I rewatched him in Project X recently and he played off a normal less awkward vibe a little too well which makes me feel he really ups the awkwardness in his youtube stuff on purpose
Adult swim needs to give Dax a awkward themed smoothie show “Dax’s Smoothie Something” and its just him doing awkward funny stuff while talking to the contestants
I needed this. Dax is like the anti Eric Andre. He's like a warm glass of warm glass of Wellbutrin who's side effects include not knowing what to do with your hands, giggles, and a sense of profound oneness with fresh baked oatmeal cookies
@@salvo5101 I think it's because almost everyone would think of saying that first, but almost immediately would instinctively go "I can't lead with that". He's just like, why not? lol
@@pokiboi135 I kind of prefer people who just get to topics like that and don’t waste time with stupid small talk stuff. If you have something to say, just say it outright, don’t beat around the bush
I think he is half doing a character but he is definitely super awkward, he just learned to embrace the awkwardness and doesn't get embarrassed by it. when I feel awkward because of my social anxiety it feels almost painful and I can't do anything to stop it, Dax does not seem to have that at all.
Dax pretty much embodied what RUclips was in the early days. Weird, out there and unique. Really glad you covered him, hope he gets the boost he deserves.
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record videos for my channel with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear cat
I'm glad to see that Dax is now becoming more popular on Tiktok and Instagram. Because he clearly wants to create content and put a smile on people's faces. I'm rootin' for him.
same, i liked him in project X, but with the recent trailer from costa for project x2 wa cool to see dax again. so i subbed to his channel. for some reasom am now watching a idubs video of this dude, and he hasnt changed a bit, but i didnt know he was such a OG on youtube, actually didnt even know he was a youtuber at core.. just know his akwardness in project X
@@SplashgameFTW publishing books is super easy in the modern era. They’re probably self-published through Amazon or something. And I doubt his RUclips videos make him much of anything considering how old they are
@@amiralimo1192 even if the ads came from today there is NO WAY he would be worth 5 million, it was a way smaller platform at the time, top 100 had 100k which even today would not translate to even 100k in the bank net worth
Idubbbz struggles approaching random people to ask about a smoothie game show, but he has no problem throwing a tantrum in a spongebob onesie in the middle of walmart?
Brett is such a bro lol the part where dax was randomly showing him himself in 21 jump street he went along with it and was like Oh yeah i thought you looked familiar.
Had to come back to this after binging "The Hot Seat with Dax Flame". Makes me very happy and proud to see Dax to realise his vision of having his own show with guests. Thank you Ian for broadening Dax's reach!!!
Dear god this was the best, when he said "I'm going to turn around so I'm unbiased" AFTER SEEING THEM PICK ALL THE INGREDIENTS AND LITERALLY TELLING THEM WHAT AND WHAT NOT TO PICK I love this Mac DeMarco guy
Huge respect for someone simply doing their job? You act like as if he did a fucking miracle when all he did was exactly what any contestant was supposed to do. Stand there, smile, make smoothies, and thats it.
@@xxxx-jh5vc lol he was a good contestant, he brought lots of energy and made it fun. Think of it this way you could have an elaborate game show but it will live and die on the people involved, if the presenter and contestants really get involved and give it their all its likely to be fun to watch. If the presenter and contestants come in disinterested, do the bare minimum or are too serious, it's not going to be particularly fun. It's like the saying life is what you make of it.
It’s like he has all the mismatched social graces of an aspie but has some inner awareness that comes through that makes him so interesting and impossible to figure out.
But you do like attention, that is the reason for the comment, right? It is the exact same reason i just responded you. I like internet attention. Im an addict. I might have to go to some sort of rehab center for internet comment addiction. I like ti eat when im sad and/or lonely too. This comment is really confusing to me. I feel important because i called you out, yet i still wanna eat the WHOLE bag of doritos. Is it possible that i am, for the first time eating because i am PROUD of myself, and not because of selfloathing? Or is it possible that i recognise the fact that i eat because i feel bad, and that made me lash out at you? I know its kinda rare to troll and apologize in the very same post, but reflecting on my bad behaviour towards you while behaving badly, made me eat faster, thus making me reflect more, which in turn made me question my motive. I am truly sorry for my illintended comment, and i only hope that god can relate to my moment of weakness, and find it in himself to not pursue any physical punishment. I am really stuffed, and feel like puking. It feels wrong that it turns me on. Bye
dude huge props to brett for playing along, someone hook that man up with some small acting jobs or something also these bigger videos have been fantastic ian
You’ve done two documentaries about two people I knew nothing about and now care for unconditionally. You make really good docs man keep up the good work.
I was genuinely laughing through the game show part! I wasn’t even sure what I was watching or laughing at but it was pure and all the content seemed so… genuine
At first I thought it was awkward, but his comfort in being friendly and open made people feel strange. I mean he's only talked to less than 100 people from the same area, there are definitely people that will find him approachable once he tweaks some things a bit.
People are commenting “smoothie madness” on Brett’s latest Instagram post...good intentions and all but, the post is about his uncle passing away. Like have some self awareness folks...pick a different post to congratulate him on at least
Thing is while idubbz would make more money doing this on Netflix, just like dax, he wouldn't like doing the same thing.I think idubbz likes the control and freedom of RUclips
@@samemz I am sure you're right. I was really just meaning something with the structure and quantity of a Netflix series. Maybe i'm just itchin' more iDubbbz documentaries.
I’ve never heard of this dude before, but I fucking love him and respect his… ability to be and/or do this. This dude is literally the most “comfortable with himself” that I’ve ever seen and it’s truly encouraging. Gods bless you, Dax Flame. You truly inspire me to reach a higher level of “just don’t give a fuck”. Thank you.
@@markovmily6950 I think he is, he wouldn't be making RUclips videos, starring in movies and wishing for a talk show if he wasn't comfortable in himself. He's clearly very autistic and his neurotypical audience doesn't know how to interpret his energy.
I just finished crying from laughter after the third question in the trivia. It was so brilliant - the absurdness of a smoothie trivia at all, the contestants not realizing at all what's going on and that question - got me so off guard, I was laughing so hard. Brett is still an absolute genius, and I'm so happy to see him in the spotlight!
even in the gameshow where there's supposed to be a competition, he always makes sure that everyone is comfortable and understands everything... this really is a one in a billion man
This is brilliant. Hes awkward as hell but somehow not cringy. “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high- powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
he seems so comfortable with being uncomfortable
real or not if you can achieve that comfort and mentality with yourself he should expect to have people envy him
Thats because you perceive his actions as uncomfortable.

The og Smosh crew's takes on Dax were incredibly intriguing. If I had only seen his videos in a vacuum I would think he was just a brilliant actor. But I've come away thinking that he's just being himself, but also has enough self awareness to embrace and amplify his natural personality.
He just started popping up again for me. After seeing this video I definitely do think he might be the best actor ever 😭 but also he might be genuine it’s so hard to tell
@@Hablonoenlgles Real or not he is such a cool person
I rewatched him in Project X recently and he played off a normal less awkward vibe a little too well which makes me feel he really ups the awkwardness in his youtube stuff on purpose
This Brett guy is such a chad. My guy just agreed to be on a ‘Smoothie Gameshow’ from two shady looking guys on the streets of Hollywood

paid actor

But he's not an actor per se
evet oh damn did they real just pay him to pretend to stand on the street and agree to be on the show etc? :( damn

He was definitely that popular kid in school that always checked up and protected the weirdos
@@yaboyskinnypenis4593 "like pink from dazed and confused?"
Ye... I'm not gay but I'm gay for Brett.
I like how dax definitely didn’t know him beforehand and definitely didn’t get him down
Adult swim needs to give Dax a awkward themed smoothie show “Dax’s Smoothie Something” and its just him doing awkward funny stuff while talking to the contestants
Eric Andre would make a crossover
Super NOS that’s exactly what i was thinking !
Lol
imagine an adult swim game show with dax and joe pera
yes they need to pick up smoothie madness
I needed this. Dax is like the anti Eric Andre. He's like a warm glass of warm glass of Wellbutrin who's side effects include not knowing what to do with your hands, giggles, and a sense of profound oneness with fresh baked oatmeal cookies
I also thought of Eric Andre. Dax is like Andre but not as self aware. But also aware enough to know he has marketable qualities
I absolutely love this description
Brett is an extremely nice guy, his parents raised a really nice man
Even if he's the physical stereotype of a bully he was really open minded about the whole thing
Honestly love the dude does he have a RUclips channel?
Jake yes! it’s brett benowitz

Same I’ve never heard of Dax nor AirsoftFatty. Ian sure knows how to find the best people.
Facts.
That’s very surprising you’ve never heard of them
Yeah same like Logan Paul
Where are all the pylons
I think he is half doing a character but he is definitely super awkward, he just learned to embrace the awkwardness and doesn't get embarrassed by it. when I feel awkward because of my social anxiety it feels almost painful and I can't do anything to stop it, Dax does not seem to have that at all.
Practice bring yourself like Dax
Dax pretty much embodied what RUclips was in the early days. Weird, out there and unique. Really glad you covered him, hope he gets the boost he deserves.
🧠
Seemed a bit like a serial killer at the start but through the video you get to know him and he seems like a good guy
Yeah very candid and authentic, before it became about money and fame.
@RavenArrowz we'll see
I'm worried he is going to lose his job at the shop.
This Brett guy made it a lot less awkward he was a genuine bloke haha

Alce Momentos I feel like he’s definitely charismatic in the dictionary definition. Despite not having much charisma in a traditional sense

Dax: "Do you wanna be on a gameshow? Have you seen 21 jump street? im in it."
Ian: "Y´all like Minecraft?"
Awkward 100
That comment killed me. Almost literally I think.
I love the game show idea honestly. Not smoothie themed by itself but just random ordinary tasks in this awkward competition style could be gold lol
The whole smoothie game show felt like an Eric Andre skit.
But some sort of double-blind skit where even Eric wasn't in on it
Id love to see Eric Andre team up with iDubbbz on a project
Nah in an Eric Andre skit he would've broken something or gotten naked.
It is

I'm glad to see that Dax is now becoming more popular on Tiktok and Instagram. Because he clearly wants to create content and put a smile on people's faces. I'm rootin' for him.
same, i liked him in project X, but with the recent trailer from costa for project x2 wa cool to see dax again. so i subbed to his channel. for some reasom am now watching a idubs video of this dude, and he hasnt changed a bit, but i didnt know he was such a OG on youtube, actually didnt even know he was a youtuber at core.. just know his akwardness in project X
I like how the only thing he doesn't sound awkward about is how much he hates his job
Despising customer service is universal.
@@SplashgameFTW publishing books is super easy in the modern era. They’re probably self-published through Amazon or something. And I doubt his RUclips videos make him much of anything considering how old they are

Almost but you can feel the awkwardness here with eric andre you can just tell he doesn't care which makes it more funny than awkward
I'd happily watch that
Except he’d then throw one up on Hannibal
I always thought they he would be great on adult swim
Idubbbz struggles approaching random people to ask about a smoothie game show, but he has no problem throwing a tantrum in a spongebob onesie in the middle of walmart?
Facts
He changed
When you are playing a character it's much easier
Walmart is a weird and magical place
That’s cause that’s a normal thing in Walmart
The filming of the game show truly shows his almost professional ability to make anything awkward
Eric Andre energy
The random ass “does anyone want to ask any questions about what I like?” Is so awkward and funny.
"Would they be able to be successful in our law school program-"

Brett is such a bro lol the part where dax was randomly showing him himself in 21 jump street he went along with it and was like Oh yeah i thought you looked familiar.
True, such a great guy!
he has a comforting and supportive gaze
Dax my guy gettin alllllll the bitches up in here.
Had to come back to this after binging "The Hot Seat with Dax Flame". Makes me very happy and proud to see Dax to realise his vision of having his own show with guests. Thank you Ian for broadening Dax's reach!!!
Dear god this was the best, when he said "I'm going to turn around so I'm unbiased" AFTER SEEING THEM PICK ALL THE INGREDIENTS AND LITERALLY TELLING THEM WHAT AND WHAT NOT TO PICK
I love this Mac DeMarco guy
It's so hard to not think it's deliberate, right? Man said "And I hate cereal, popcorn, and ice cream" with a straight face
Dax is what Michael Cera pretends to be like in movies
exato
Who knows, maybe Michael Cera watched his stuff back then and it stuck with him haha
my fucking god, he reminded me of michael cera as well lmao
Project x and 21 jump street ayeee, “ can we like get some b***** up in here? “ 😂😂
Some of dax mannerisms reminds me of jessie Eisenberg for some reason lol
Huge fucking respect for Brett, he did such a great job. Took all the awkward stuff so great, and really tried to bring up the whole game show.
Fr Brett the homie
And he was congratulating ledi or ledie every round (however you spell her name) good sportsmanship that
Huge respect for someone simply doing their job? You act like as if he did a fucking miracle when all he did was exactly what any contestant was supposed to do. Stand there, smile, make smoothies, and thats it.
@@xxxx-jh5vc lol he was a good contestant, he brought lots of energy and made it fun. Think of it this way you could have an elaborate game show but it will live and die on the people involved, if the presenter and contestants really get involved and give it their all its likely to be fun to watch. If the presenter and contestants come in disinterested, do the bare minimum or are too serious, it's not going to be particularly fun. It's like the saying life is what you make of it.
hes the cohost now
It’s like he has all the mismatched social graces of an aspie but has some inner awareness that comes through that makes him so interesting and impossible to figure out.
man really just came up and goes "ya'll like minecraft"
i lost it. had to watch it over and over
I get some real Arthur Fleck vibes with this guy
But you do like attention, that is the reason for the comment, right?
It is the exact same reason i just responded you. I like internet attention. Im an addict. I might have to go to some sort of rehab center for internet comment addiction. I like ti eat when im sad and/or lonely too.
This comment is really confusing to me. I feel important because i called you out, yet i still wanna eat the WHOLE bag of doritos. Is it possible that i am, for the first time eating because i am PROUD of myself, and not because of selfloathing? Or is it possible that i recognise the fact that i eat because i feel bad, and that made me lash out at you?
I know its kinda rare to troll and apologize in the very same post, but reflecting on my bad behaviour towards you while behaving badly, made me eat faster, thus making me reflect more, which in turn made me question my motive. I am truly sorry for my illintended comment, and i only hope that god can relate to my moment of weakness, and find it in himself to not pursue any physical punishment. I am really stuffed, and feel like puking. It feels wrong that it turns me on. Bye

I was in tears for the entire second round. “alright brett, you’re in second place”
It's like his personality brings out a very unique side of everyone around him.
yeah he is disarmingly genuine
@@ahodbikes That's a great way of putting it.
At first I thought it was awkward, but his comfort in being friendly and open made people feel strange. I mean he's only talked to less than 100 people from the same area, there are definitely people that will find him approachable once he tweaks some things a bit.
He forces people to be their natural selves.
Hahaha I might be Dax I gave free liquor to homeless people when I worked at liquor store

Smoothie madness
Phenomenal cinematography. I would love to watch a Netflix docu-series where you just hangout and get to know unique people like Dax and AirSoftFatty.
This IS, that series.
I think hes still thinking about what he wants to do, idubbz jus likes doing a bunch of shit
Thing is while idubbz would make more money doing this on Netflix, just like dax, he wouldn't like doing the same thing.I think idubbz likes the control and freedom of RUclips

He is absolutely not comfortable in his own skin.
@@markovmily6950 I think he is, he wouldn't be making RUclips videos, starring in movies and wishing for a talk show if he wasn't comfortable in himself. He's clearly very autistic and his neurotypical audience doesn't know how to interpret his energy.
'the only thing is... he doesn't seem to be into smoothies.'
Hahaha I was looking for that. He’s homeless, living in his car, so I guess he doesn’t seem like he’s into smoothies.
Lol Ian barging into the conversation like “ya like Minecraft?”
Great ice breaker honestly. If someone through that at me on the street, I'd be thoroughly intrigued.
I didn’t expect to, but I genuinely enjoyed the game show. HUGE PROPS to Brett... he made it really fun, and was an absolute bro throughout this game.
Lol I can’t stop smiling, really feels like a dude creating a show about what he wants
I just finished crying from laughter after the third question in the trivia. It was so brilliant - the absurdness of a smoothie trivia at all, the contestants not realizing at all what's going on and that question - got me so off guard, I was laughing so hard.
