Hey Everyone! Micah and Christian were really awesome to put themselves out there and do something like this. They tried to make a connection when a lot of people today would have said no. There are going to be things said you don’t agree with, but I encourage you guys to try and choose something different, and let’s show both sides some respect in the comments 🙏
I thought this was great, and so were they. I was hoping it would be Christian and Micah as the two. I'm glad it was. I figured they'd have the best chance of getting along and having good discussion. I almost shipped them as soon as I saw them meet lol! Love the series. Keep it up, guys. Just want to say if you ever come to the Maryland area would love to hang out with you guys. It seems like it would be a blast.
That went as I had hoped. I don't think you could have made better choices than Micah and Christian. Given a little more time I would have bet they would be friends. ❤❤❤❤ Go Trump. 😁
When i was young i was caIIed racist at schooI for about 6 years cause of the music i Iike. It made me hate them(turks moroccan and bIack peopIe) so much. The teachers didnt do anything against it but when i got angry i got i troubIe, one time i got angry and grabbed that person and pushed her against the window, the window opened and i had her in my hands outside of the windows. if i opened my hands and Iet her Ioose she wouId feII about 15 feet down. I took her back inside and grabbed my stuff and went home. Never heard anything about it cause i think the teacher knew that she shouId have done something before that. Iater i met some reaIIy nice peopIe from those groups (and some dicks) that made me think a bit different and i give everybody a change to see if i Iike them or not
I'm micahs older step brother and one thing about micah is he's very humble for everything he has been through. He broke his back, and was within an centimeter of being paralyzed. He beat that and then somebody stole his identity and destroyed his credit. Then he gets cancer and beats it and he doesn't even bring it up besides the cancer a little bit. He is one tough kid.
Now this is so much better than Jubilee. Actually a cool experiment to try and put aside differences and not just something to stir up the pot even more
Nah ... One reads the headlines the other reads the bill. There are no equal seats. One will listen to a 3 hours speech and the other will wait for the MSM to tell you what was said .
"stop looking for all the reasons you can't or shouldn't connect with someone, and start to look for the reasons why you can" I needed to remember that
I dont want to connect with people that want to deny my friends neccesary healthcare, because they think trans people dont exist or that abortions are evil. Paradox of Tolerance. Being german i know where "appeasment" leads. Learn your history.
I find funny that both of them said the other one was going to be "rich" I think that clearly shows one problem that most people in both sides have in common
It's very funny how he's wearing a rage against the machine shirt when he's raging with the machine and the actual band members would despise him. He has no literacy if he thinks RATM supports his ideals
@@subscriberswithOnlyonevi-zm2ixRATM is pretty much a "fuck the system fuck the rich but we love major label contract cash". in fact i respect the Gallaghers of Oasis more because when fans kept asking them to write songs about the struggles of being poor, they said "we live in big mansions in London now we can't do that" i usually keep listening to bands or musicians that i like despite their political views, like The Smiths & Morrissey for example but RATM is pure cringe dude
Christian was very gracious and Micah recognized when he had gone too far, immediately apologized and showed genuine concern for hurting her feelings. This is what we need to get back to. We can have big differences of opinion and still come together and not only work together, but enjoy each other's company. I had been waiting for part three, and I was not disappointed. P.S. Thank you for showcasing my Arizona home! Fun fact: We are the most ecologically diverse, landlocked state. Come back anytime! We love to have you.
@@idzbbyboy No but it would be very intresting to see how they feel after the election has been over for a while, what the current president is doing, and how they both feel after. Also to see how they're doing in general-maybe some more on her house with her family and the support they give out to their community, and his accomplishments after his health journey.
As someone who hates conflicts and is often the family mediator, I have to give you guys props for redirecting the conversations and keeping things civil between Micah and Christian. Professional stuff right there!
Shoutout to Christian and Micah for pushing themselves. You could tell they were uncomfortable but were committed to making a connection. Which is amazing. I love the channel and hope to see these challenging videos in the future
Ideological differences aren't the problem. Letting ideology define your identity is. It leaves the door open for folks to be taken advantage of by those with alternative motives, which is exactly what has happened. It's the things cult leaders dream of!
Here in germany the right side is getting pretty strong and people cut friendships and relationships because of political problems. Its destroying our generation. I always heard as a kid that you don't talk about money, religion or politics, and now in the age of information we forgot about that. Seeing friendships and love come to an end because of politics just hurts my soul and makes me angry. Sure, you have the right to cut contact for no reason but don't point fingers at the end of the day.
@@KaiUndMoritz The Left in Germany has been abusing Germans for years beating them over the head whit the nations shame the right wing is not evil that is a leftist lie yours truly the centrist. the people cutting friendships are leftist activists becose it is a cult there
being on the internet and being able to just anonymously throw insults around back and forth and staying in echo chambers is the worst thing we could've done with the internet, we really need to not be so divided. hope more people can be inspired to go out and see everyone as actual people and just get along
It’s crazy, relieving, and scary all at the same time when you gain self-awareness of this. I love being unaffected by echo chambers but it terrifies me seeing so many people divided and unable to confront different beliefs and opinions without crashing out.
lawd.. we know he didnt eat it. The comedy/randomness of the moment was perfect which is why I assume it was included. That's all folks. Anyway, Micah and Christian were a joy to watch.
I'm a climber too, so this was an unexpected crossover. I wanted more beta on those routes, but realised I'm on the wrong channel for that type of thing!
Christian is such a beautiful, kind, and brave person who stepped outside her comfort zone in so many ways and Micah has a humble and caring personality and recognizes when the words he says hurt someone and can admit it and apologize genuinely. It was nice to see two people with different passions and views, who have been divided by our political landscape come together as humans, maybe now as friend and connect with each other. Also are we not going to talk about the 1999 Charizard Micah has on the back of his phone?
@@CatzDolz I complimented them both and went even further to compliment Micha for the 1999 Pokemon Charizard card that he has in the back of his phone because I like Micah also like Pokemon. Not sure what you’re getting at?
This project is honestly one of the best I've seen on RUclips! We’re more divided than ever-not just in the US but here in Europe too. You've created not only an entertaining video but also an educational piece that shows society how to connect with people who hold different views.
Europeans decided to use Twitter and Facebook as a news source they actually know less about what is going on in their own countries then they know of lies said about Trump and that is really sad
You are correct. We used to have competitions in our neighborhoods by putting the signs out front of who we supported. Now people are stealing them and most people dont feel comfortable even putting them out.
We're politically and racially divided to distract us from the fact that we're all economically f*d. And it's those who divide us that are benefiting from the fact.
Thank you for this series! Also big shout out to Christian and Micah for bridging the divide, not to mention their stamina! Skydiving and rock climbing in one day, wow...😅
honestly I was exhausted right before they put the skydiving gear on, idk how they did it LMAO my chosen event would been something low energy like a tea party or the spa
The ability to joke around shows a lot about the belief. He knows he will be alright and jokes with her. He can honeslty look at his POV and see some issues. She did amazing at the same thing. I think the ability to agree to disagree in this country is what makes it so great. Keep up the positive content. It was a great journey to follow!
I agree, now if the government could reflect this and not be of the same ideology (I.e only one political party of lobbyists, loyalists), that would be great. Good policies come from partisan discourse, reflecting most Americans. Authoritarian policies come from a unilateral government (be it Democrat or Republican) which is never good as it undermines the normal American, even should they resonate with policies made, given it allows politicians to go unchecked and pass things they did not advocate for. The nation is composed of multiple mindsets, let the government also be.
How things work nowadays, the Framers would be very disappointed at, especially the balance...they did not expect a bipartisan America to form because they expected each individual being of an individual mindset...if you read the Federalist papers that much is clear.
Christian is so kind. I really admire her patience. She was very empathetic and empowering. I truly believe coming together like this past all differences is helping us as a whole in uplifting the world. 💗
It made me super happy to see Christian really open up. Even when she may have been uncomfortable, she went along with the plans and was a trooper. Solid video yall, great watchig all the episodes
Not to be rude and I wish I could agree with this sentiment, but I’m having a hard time loving the neighbors who vote against bodily autonomy or support divisive legislation.
@ So then would a female being hesitant to cook automatically be female incompetence? I think they were both awesome and found a way to have a good time. 🤷🏻♀️
Im a conservative, and one of my best friends is a liberal. The key to getting along with someone that has such conflicting views as you is to not talk about them, and when things do come up, make allowances and sacrifice some of your ego and pride by not biting back. My friend and I spent nearly the entire summer fishing and kayaking and having just an absolute blast because we found something in common. Lucky for us this is just the beginning of what we share as hobbies. And i think thats why we're such good friends. When we plan see each other, all it means is that we're planning on having a freaking great time doing something we both really enjoy with someone who shares the same intrest in fun activity.
there were more than 700 warring "indigenous" tribes in pre-columbian america. what were you connecting? oh... right. rocks on other rocks to make stone aged arrowheads.
This is SO important right now. I hope it goes ridiculously viral. Most of us just want to get back to connection and respect for our differences which we all have the freedom to choose!
It's hard when one side is a bunch of Not Sees and the other side are a bunch of Commies. The rhetoric they use for one another is disgusting. They're not seeing each other as Americans, but rather as enemies to be defeated.
@@iamhereblossom1588 oh. here i was thinking that the people who censor every word that offends them, and want to make "hate speech" laws, were the ones who cry about being called names. whoops. my bad
@@samwaldorf8777I doubt she was raging and crying for 16 hours, but I do have a question for you. What exactly is wrong with expressing your feelings in a safe space? Being against something like that honestly just sounds like projection to me...
Micah’s personality and spirit is awesome and his childlike wonder is a pleasure to see. (Like when he ate the leaf on his shoulder LOL). Also his ability to apologize is admirable!! I need to take some notes from him haha. Christian definitely pushed herself in many ways, physically mentally and spiritually! You could tell she gave this her all despite sometimes being uncomfortable. ❤❤❤ really cool episode, we gotta start embracing our uniqueness and respecting our differences more. XO
What a wholesome video. One of the best I've seen in ages. As a Trump voter, I would absolutely hang out with Christian. She's seems honest (though a little misguided ;P ), caring, brave, and loving. These are all character traits I value deeply. And as the last quote said "Stop looking for all the reasons why you can't or shouldn't connect with someone, and start to look for the reasons why you can." This is what America needs more than ever, and I'm all for it. Thank you Discover Connection for putting this wonderful video up.
This video genuinely made me smile and its so cool that you guys brought two strangers come together and have fun even though they have different political ideologies
Me too! During this video my husband asked what I was watching because I stopped what I was doing, leaned over, rested my chin in my hands while wearing a big grin on my face.
"We do have a lot in common. The same Earth, the same air, the same sky. Maybe if we started looking at what's the same instead of what's different... well, who knows." That's an inspirational quote from ... Meowth. yeah the Pokémon Meowth. The quote is from Mewtwo Strikes Back, the first Pokémon movie from 1998. Who knew a quote from Pokémon would still be as relevant as ever 26 years later ?
Fucking same, I am very left but if I am strapped to someone with a don't tread on me shirt then I'll pretend red is my favorite color for a day, rather not risk it
First video I watch on this channel and I’m really impressed by Micah and Christian. You guys really picked two awesome ppl. You guys also adapted really well in the experiment. Allowed yourselves to acknowledge where things went wrong and how you can help bring your two guest closer together. I also appreciate that Micah and Christian were so open to sharing and discussing these tough topics and even when things got a bit hairy, they still found a middle ground. More videos like this! You’ve gained a new subscriber ❤
This series was absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much for telling this story!! Coming from my perspective as a still-undecided voter with a mix of liberal and conservative views, and as a Christian as well with friends on all sides of the political spectrum.... This video sheds light on the unity that does exist in the states as a baseline. The division that is center stage is, well, like theatrics on a stage, not the full picture. Division is fed to us on social media, news media, from our politicians, and by proxy from our friends and family... Division sells, but Unity Strengthens... I think we really witnessed something crucial. When politics are center stage in a discussion, division is easy. Yet when we set it aside, connection and unity are real. When Politics are the only defining feature of what one makes one's self to be, division and arguments are incredibly common. But when we choose to focus on the other things that make us ... us... we can find plenty of common ground and cause to support each other. In a world that is more "connected" than ever before via the internet... that same medium removes that human element and facilitates a mentality of assumptions about the other people. It makes it easier to sow hate and division. This series shed light on a light, and truth, that if more Americans were able to see, our country and society would be much better off. Some say Trump being president will solve it all, others say Harris will. Others say Stein, or Kennedy... But no politician is going to fully heal the divide. We need a paradigm shift of how folks connect with each other and this is an amazing step in that direction. Thank you to the storytellers that are leading us towards healing!
As Christians we should know that there is only unity in Christ, neutrality is a myth. in Christianity there is not common ground for her heretical views on abortion and gay pastors
While it puzzles me how anyone is still undecided at this point, I do appreciate and agree with your perspective. The truth is that we have more in common than we have differences. While those differences are likely sensitive and significant, we should work as hard as we can to capitalize on the things we agree on.
No Democrat supporter can be a Christian. Oil and water don't mix. God has no accord with Satan. Jesus doesn't support abortion, homo, pedo, t-rans. To vote for people who support that is to go completely against God.
Both of them were shocked at how Normal the other person was. Thats the truth. We weren't split like this as a country until Occupy Wall Street. We got too close to the money (the real problem) so they used the news to make us fight each other, instead of focusing on the REAL Problem... big corporations who fund the politicians, so the politicians do what their donors say. Even if it is bad for our country.
The crazy part for me,is how I have had friends from different walks of life without full issue for decades until the last decade. Now it feels like we have to make friends based on our politics. Obviously we do not have too,but it feels tht way. This energy is probably why I only have 2 good friends,where can talk about it all without issue. Even with different political views,we still see eachother.
Hi Brad, I’m a guy from Mauritius and I’ve watched every SINGLE one of your videos. I wanted to share my wholesome love for this one-it’s absolutely fantastic. Keep finding more sponsors and pushing forward, you’re not far from hitting 50 million subs. Lots of love and support from Mauritius! ♥ Also love Liam such a genuine guy.
I really enjoyed this series! I am a firm believer that we should all get along despite of our differences. However, I do wish that we could talk about our differences without getting so emotional. I truly like to hear why people think differently then myself but everyone assumes that I’m trying to start an argument when I ask them a question. The important thing is to not throw insults or derogatory remarks because that only escalates things. Also, don’t try to back someone into a corner just to prove a point. We have to respect each other. I was impressed by how Micah & Christian acknowledged when things were getting heated and put a stop to conversation until they calmed down & became grounded. Great job by both of them!!!❤
The issue is when you refer to one side as racist, misogynistic, transphobic fascists as the Media has done, it makes it very difficult to find that middle ground. If you're on the left, you can not be associated with that at all while if you're on the right, you're going WTF with those labels...
@@davidtsang4949 if the shoe fits? Obviously its hard to admit to underlying racism but its built into the very fabric of America. We were run on racism lead by the ultra wealthy. And everyone has internal biases, maybe not always towards other people. But they still have them, we are one race afterall the human race
I cannot believe you guys dont get more attention, this has been a beautiful series, thank you for what you guys do, and thank you to both Christian and Micah!
What’s dope about this is I didn’t clock them as fighting or not getting along. Talking through discomfort and differences without tearing each other down is how we grow as humans. This was beautiful to watch, thank you
I am a Trump supporter and didn't know what to think of the series when I found it but I really enjoyed all 3 episodes! Both Christian and Micah were perfect picks.
She is insanely brainwashed & delusional it was hard to respect that but the respect for each other was cooo. She just insanely brainwashed, to say he is was comedy. Landslide bro landslide
@@TayKayxit was crazy watching her talk about brain washing and then seeing clips of her repeating the same felony line 4 times 😂 I bet she can't even name the 34 repeats let alone the hundred thrown out cases they couldn't get to stick
@ lmao fr the whole tax thing is ridiculous every one of those billionaires and politicians abuse it they just went after them because they knew they can’t win fairly and look at that. None of it worked and he won by land slide lol
I cannot articulate what this channel means to me. Found your hitchhiking series during Covid and it’s got me thru some rough patches . Absolutely love the channel
Thank you guys so much for doing this little series, and a HUGE thank you to both Christian and Micah! I'm going to share these videos with my friends on both sides of the aisle.
Absolutely loved this. Been dealing with similar stuff in my life because my family is very liberal but I have mostly conservative friends and I've had to figure out that politics doesn't make or break relationships because we're all just people who should get along no matter what
I absolutely LOVED these last 3 videos!!! I never heard of you guys, but I am subscribing!!! What an awesome way to end this whole exhausting election season!!! What a flippin’ cool idea!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you guys for being willing to participate in this whole adventure!!! YOU BOTH ROCK!!!
Yo, DC. First, I love your content. You showed me how simple citizens of USA live and dream. Second, and moreover, you successfully proven a point to me, a thing that really concerns me as a young man living in a country at war. That despite the political differences and ideologies, we shall not ever forget that the person we are standing next to is not "name"-supporter, but first and foremost a Person. There's a strong age gap in politics in my country that tears families apart: old people lived in my country for so long that it's hard for them to imagine the other, not theirs, say of living. On the other side, there's young pals like me who were shown better lives when we were growing up, just to see how everything can go wrong in less than a decade. Thank for reminding me and all the people out there that unconditional respect still exist and thrives - all we need is just look closer. TY so much
Let me just say this, I'm queer, I'm trans. I'm as far from Trump as possible but I like Micah so much more. He's genuine, down-to-earth, he's honest, he isn't afraid to admit when he's wrong or upset someone. He's always up for a challenge and putting his best foot forward. It doesn't matter his views, political or not, he is a good man.
When I was a kid, the word "queer" was a hateful slur for homosexuals. Language has changed so much in such a short time, which is another reason for so much division. People are unable to communicate effectively when they speak different languages and have different definitions for the words they use.
Most of us are like Micah. People only pay attention to the loud ones. On both sides ... I miss the 90s and earlier when your political leaning was a private matter
Man I just randomly stumbled upon your channel and I binged all 3 parts of this series. This was very fun and entertaining to watch. It's nice to see how open people can be to new experiences and meeting others from all walks of life. Have a great day Guys
Got recommended this series from the algorithm and I'm impressed, awesome idea and channel, subbed Micah and Christian were both awesome, kudos to them for partaking in this video
I remember in high school hearing a very civil conversation between people who heavily disagreed politically. Basically they were both like "I disagree, because..." Very polite, they took time to listen to and even try to understand the other person. It was very satisfying and not something you get every day.
Major kudos to Christian. It must have felt like everyone was against her including the skydiving people, but she held her ground fairly well. Plus, she was a woman hanging out with only guys. That can be intimidating too. I am a woman who voted for Trump, but I can tell that Christian is a lovely person. We need to close the gap amongst Americans. Much love ❤
As a woman and someone who has voted Trump since 16, I had the same thoughts. Being surrounded by the opposite gender can be a little isolating and as a female surrounded by males has a bit of an intimidation factor. Everyone seemed like quality people that were concerned with others' well being so that helps. Yes, both Micah and Christian were great about being open to find connection despite political differences.
Christian was not only very bright, but she was the positive one between the two. If it wasn't for her graciousness, the day would have ended early. A true Kamala supporter.
@@christinewhite6879I understand her logic with the hate, but I thought it was odd she could not understand the message about government on the window of the Ford.. Really strange.
What a cool series. This one went about as well as I expected it to. Gotta admit the rage against the machine shirt had me rolling, but I'm glad it at least mostly worked out.
I saw healthy conversations and light poking fun. Without having an honest open dialogue, we get stuck in our bubbles. I would consider it a problem if we didn't talk to one another due to political differences. What makes America great, is being able to have differences of opinion and lifestyles with the freedom to do so. It opens up more dialogue, and understanding, and viewpoints can possibly change, but most important, to build a relationship with one another, and not creating a civil war amongst each other. Without conversation, pent up anger and rage towards another is inevitable, and hate for each side starts to form. There is a lot more in common between both sides than we think. Both seem to care about their families, friends, and the right to think whatever they want. That's how it should be.
That experiment was so brave of you. I imagine there's a lot of things that could go awkwardly bad... But It turned out really good, I'm amazed that the whole thing was even possible. In short, great job!
THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOURE DOING! This work that you guys are doing is SO important to the world right now. Beyond you can imagine!!! I got emotional at one point. You guys are amazing!
Fantastic series! I was disappointed last night when I finished 1 and 2, that 3 wasn't up, and happy to get to watch it today. I honestly don't remember being that excited about watching a documentary series for years!
Not taking sides but just wanted to point this out: 1: I love Micah’s rage against the machine shirt because they are a kickass band 2: all 4 members of the band are left and think trump is the machine so he is kind of incorrect and it’s funny at 8:55
Yeah…they are a super left leaning band that sings about condemning fascism and authoritarianism…which is exactly what the Right stands for. I was in college in the 90s, and politics were ENTIRELY different than today. Kinda funny that now the Left is the fascist totalitarian party!
I think that's why so much of what Micah says in this video annoys me. I don't know all the struggles he's been through but so much of what he likes and says just seems ironic. Same with that skydiving instructor. "We call you a parrot." Then multiple cuts of Micah parroting right wing talking points like abortion and being wrong about what's in the bible, even when Christian tries to correct him. "Only Democrats kill people" as if Trump's violent rhetoric, January 6th, and two Republican attempted assassins don't exist. Christian's surprise at a Mexican being a Trump supporter really sells it. How can you politically debate people that you can't even take seriously because their whole worldview seems like a South Park parody on logic?
Yeah….i think Trump has to pick songs from dead people, too many musicians got pissed I just went to a Green Day concert. That was awesome….felt connected
Great video! Connecting with people outside of politics and really listening to their side is key. We dont have to change each others views..just get to know them better!
Just a heads up… I almost didn’t click on this video because I was looking for Micah and Christian, not the two random people you show with the thumbnail. It threw me a bit. I’m glad I did but I wonder how many people are waiting for the follow up video of Micah and Christian and don’t click on this because you show these 2 different people at the table? It was a nice ending. Thanks for doing what you did. Jen. Australia. ❤️🙏🕊️❤️
Agreed, they definitely need to change the thumbnail to Micah and Christian, seems pretty obvious, I didn't click the first time I saw it but luckily read the title when it popped back up in Recommended the 2nd time around👍
VALID. If I didn’t assume this was the follow up video I wouldn’t have clicked for the “new” topic….. should definitely use them in the thumbnail which I think would be more fun to not just have you sitting at a table with stand-ins but I am also preprogrammed to click every DC video at this point! Lol so I’ll still end up watching
Just stumbled upon your channel and watched all three episodes the night before the election. I’m Canadian so it’s not even my election, but I’m invested. This was a great experiment and so well executed!
Me and my spouse are opposites in choice of party candidates, married 14+ years! We have lots of friends even neighbors that hold different political views and we are all kind and polite to each other! We exchange food, pick up packages for each other, help each other, visit each other in hospital, In reality majority of people with opposite views are more kinder and polite and nicer to each other than the media portrays.
My mom and late father are also opposite ends of the political spectrum. We have mail in ballot in our state. When I was a senior is hs, he watched us fill out our ballots and told us if we didn’t vote for McCain that he’d kick me out of the house and divorce her. I think most of the time, relationships like that just don’t work. Didn’t matter to him that what he did to us was illegal.
@ Respect is very important in a family, especially respect in difference of opinions. That is unfortunate that your father let political views drive family apart.
@@Bobbyheebee Seems that he was blackmailing you and your mother and was psychologically abusive towards you both in different ways, which is beyond basic differences in political views. He was just using the political differences as a wedge in his psychological abusive behavior to hurt you! Which is unfortunate!
Thanks for trying to do something like this. In a world so divided, it's more important than ever that people look for ways to connect. We all want a better world for our loved ones and future generations. We can get there together.
I've loved every moment of this series. This is not only enlightening and engaging content, but important right now. I've admired you guys for a while for your belief in the power of human connection and the only way for people to overcome their differences at times of such huge divisiveness like this is by genuinely connecting and sharing ideas. It's incredible that a pair of Canadians are the guys making this content in the US, but I'm so glad you did. This series was such an excellent idea and you executed it perfectly. Micah and Christian were such great finds too, they're really the ideal people for this. I really hope you're proud of what you've created here, you totally deserve to be.
This is so beautiful. This channel reminds me of the old Yes Theory, when they were actually good and went out of their comfort zone. It's really nice to see that two completely opposing sides can get along with each other, and is a true testament to human connection, thank you for making this.
This is the most enjoyable video series I have seen in a long time. I was smiling and laughing during the whole video today. What a joy to watch! The media and politicians are the ones dividing the country, and generating this hatred toward one another, but this idea you have "introduced" in this delightful video series by bringing 2 people together with opposing views is the true way to begin the process of ending the division in our country and the rest of the world as well. Please do more videos like this and little by little our country can be united once again.
I love your channel guys, I have been following it since your first video and I just want to say you're doing an amazing job. The content has improved and it's great to see regular uploads. Keep up the great work, I'll always continue looking forward to your videos and perspectives on life!
I'm not a big fan of that band. But I will say I saw them about 20 years ago at a crawfish boil with a bunch of 90s bands. , and that singer had the crowd whipped up in a frenzy that honestly shocked me. He had complete control of that place. Crazy. I don't care much for their music, but that kind of skill fronting a band was just unbelievable.
I think Micah and Christian found more commonality than opposition…and we are ALL Americans…you guys picked 2 great people..this was really cool to watch!

Hey Everyone! Micah and Christian were really awesome to put themselves out there and do something like this. They tried to make a connection when a lot of people today would have said no.
There are going to be things said you don’t agree with, but I encourage you guys to try and choose something different, and let’s show both sides some respect in the comments 🙏
Wow, I just found these videos this morning...both seem to be good people. I have not watched the whole thing yet.
I thought this was great, and so were they. I was hoping it would be Christian and Micah as the two. I'm glad it was. I figured they'd have the best chance of getting along and having good discussion. I almost shipped them as soon as I saw them meet lol! Love the series. Keep it up, guys. Just want to say if you ever come to the Maryland area would love to hang out with you guys. It seems like it would be a blast.
That went as I had hoped. I don't think you could have made better choices than Micah and Christian.
Given a little more time I would have bet they would be friends. ❤❤❤❤
Go Trump. 😁
When i was young i was caIIed racist at schooI for about 6 years cause of the music i Iike. It made me hate them(turks moroccan and bIack peopIe) so much.

I'm micahs older step brother and one thing about micah is he's very humble for everything he has been through. He broke his back, and was within an centimeter of being paralyzed. He beat that and then somebody stole his identity and destroyed his credit. Then he gets cancer and beats it and he doesn't even bring it up besides the cancer a little bit. He is one tough kid.

Absolutely!!
Yeah jubilee is very clearly biased which just made everything chaotic
Exactly 💯
Jubilee should be ashamed of how much they’re instigating division in America. They’ve milked this election to the very last drop.
Nah ... One reads the headlines the other reads the bill. There are no equal seats. One will listen to a 3 hours speech and the other will wait for the MSM to tell you what was said .
"stop looking for all the reasons you can't or shouldn't connect with someone, and start to look for the reasons why you can"

@@subscriberswithOnlyonevi-zm2ixRATM is pretty much a "fuck the system fuck the rich but we love major label contract cash". in fact i respect the Gallaghers of Oasis more because when fans kept asking them to write songs about the struggles of being poor, they said "we live in big mansions in London now we can't do that"
i usually keep listening to bands or musicians that i like despite their political views, like The Smiths & Morrissey for example but RATM is pure cringe dude
Micah was right tho 😂
Christian was very gracious and Micah recognized when he had gone too far, immediately apologized and showed genuine concern for hurting her feelings. This is what we need to get back to. We can have big differences of opinion and still come together and not only work together, but enjoy each other's company. I had been waiting for part three, and I was not disappointed.

As someone who hates conflicts and is often the family mediator, I have to give you guys props for redirecting the conversations and keeping things civil between Micah and Christian. Professional stuff right there!
I also hate conflicts but I love heated discussions especially about politics including with raised voices.
I think Christian kept redirecting the conversations to keep it professional mostly....
Shoutout to Christian and Micah for pushing themselves. You could tell they were uncomfortable but were committed to making a connection. Which is amazing. I love the channel and hope to see these challenging videos in the future

Ideological differences aren't the problem. Letting ideology define your identity is. It leaves the door open for folks to be taken advantage of by those with alternative motives, which is exactly what has happened. It's the things cult leaders dream of!
Here in germany the right side is getting pretty strong and people cut friendships and relationships because of political problems. Its destroying our generation. I always heard as a kid that you don't talk about money, religion or politics, and now in the age of information we forgot about that. Seeing friendships and love come to an end because of politics just hurts my soul and makes me angry. Sure, you have the right to cut contact for no reason but don't point fingers at the end of the day.
Well said!
@@KaiUndMoritz The Left in Germany has been abusing Germans for years beating them over the head whit the nations shame the right wing is not evil that is a leftist lie yours truly the centrist.

Well ... someone decided to tell the one hundred percent truth 😅
being on the internet and being able to just anonymously throw insults around back and forth and staying in echo chambers is the worst thing we could've done with the internet, we really need to not be so divided. hope more people can be inspired to go out and see everyone as actual people and just get along
It’s crazy, relieving, and scary all at the same time when you gain self-awareness of this. I love being unaffected by echo chambers but it terrifies me seeing so many people divided and unable to confront different beliefs and opinions without crashing out.
How is no one talking about eating the leaf! I lost it there 😂

He knew the camera was on. He didn't eat it.
lawd.. we know he didnt eat it. The comedy/randomness of the moment was perfect which is why I assume it was included. That's all folks. Anyway, Micah and Christian were a joy to watch.
This was really great. Im very happy to have had a part in this episode! We all have way more that connects us than what separates us.
I'm a climber too, so this was an unexpected crossover. I wanted more beta on those routes, but realised I'm on the wrong channel for that type of thing!
I want to try climbing but I don’t have upper body strength. And scary of heights
@@Happy_life0000 common misconception. You don't start climbing because you're already strong. You start climbing because it makes you strong.
Christian is such a beautiful, kind, and brave person who stepped outside her comfort zone in so many ways and Micah has a humble and caring personality and recognizes when the words he says hurt someone and can admit it and apologize genuinely. It was nice to see two people with different passions and views, who have been divided by our political landscape come together as humans, maybe now as friend and connect with each other. Also are we not going to talk about the 1999 Charizard Micah has on the back of his phone?
Heck yeah, flies for the first time to meet up with 3 strange men. She's not your typical Kamala supporter

Hey Jubilee, Take notes from these guys. This is how you conduct a middle ground. Great video.
This project is honestly one of the best I've seen on RUclips! We’re more divided than ever-not just in the US but here in Europe too. You've created not only an entertaining video but also an educational piece that shows society how to connect with people who hold different views.
Europeans decided to use Twitter and Facebook as a news source they actually know less about what is going on in their own countries then they know of lies said about Trump and that is really sad
You are correct. We used to have competitions in our neighborhoods by putting the signs out front of who we supported. Now people are stealing them and most people dont feel comfortable even putting them out.
I’ve always thought it was weird for anyone of either side to put signs out.
@@randomtimessomehow México is going through that too
We're politically and racially divided to distract us from the fact that we're all economically f*d. And it's those who divide us that are benefiting from the fact.
Thank you for this series! Also big shout out to Christian and Micah for bridging the divide, not to mention their stamina! Skydiving and rock climbing in one day, wow...😅
honestly I was exhausted right before they put the skydiving gear on, idk how they did it LMAO my chosen event would been something low energy like a tea party or the spa
And then being forced to cook a whole meal, that neither were excited to eat 😅
The ability to joke around shows a lot about the belief. He knows he will be alright and jokes with her. He can honeslty look at his POV and see some issues. She did amazing at the same thing. I think the ability to agree to disagree in this country is what makes it so great. Keep up the positive content. It was a great journey to follow!
Things are going to get worse because parents are teaching their kids to dislike people based on politics.
Its is quite sad that it is seen as a brave and amazing thing to disagree and joke around when it should be the norm.
I agree, now if the government could reflect this and not be of the same ideology (I.e only one political party of lobbyists, loyalists), that would be great.
Good policies come from partisan discourse, reflecting most Americans. Authoritarian policies come from a unilateral government (be it Democrat or Republican) which is never good as it undermines the normal American, even should they resonate with policies made, given it allows politicians to go unchecked and pass things they did not advocate for. The nation is composed of multiple mindsets, let the government also be.
How things work nowadays, the Framers would be very disappointed at, especially the balance...they did not expect a bipartisan America to form because they expected each individual being of an individual mindset...if you read the Federalist papers that much is clear.
Christian is so kind. I really admire her patience. She was very empathetic and empowering. I truly believe coming together like this past all differences is helping us as a whole in uplifting the world. 💗
Very brainwashed with cnn but yes
It made me super happy to see Christian really open up. Even when she may have been uncomfortable, she went along with the plans and was a trooper. Solid video yall, great watchig all the episodes

Im a conservative, and one of my best friends is a liberal. The key to getting along with someone that has such conflicting views as you is to not talk about them, and when things do come up, make allowances and sacrifice some of your ego and pride by not biting back. My friend and I spent nearly the entire summer fishing and kayaking and having just an absolute blast because we found something in common. Lucky for us this is just the beginning of what we share as hobbies. And i think thats why we're such good friends. When we plan see each other, all it means is that we're planning on having a freaking great time doing something we both really enjoy with someone who shares the same intrest in fun activity.

What a wholesome video. One of the best I've seen in ages. As a Trump voter, I would absolutely hang out with Christian. She's seems honest (though a little misguided ;P ), caring, brave, and loving. These are all character traits I value deeply. And as the last quote said "Stop looking for all the reasons why you can't or shouldn't connect with someone, and start to look for the reasons why you can." This is what America needs more than ever, and I'm all for it. Thank you Discover Connection for putting this wonderful video up.

This series was absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much for telling this story!!
Coming from my perspective as a still-undecided voter with a mix of liberal and conservative views, and as a Christian as well with friends on all sides of the political spectrum.... This video sheds light on the unity that does exist in the states as a baseline. The division that is center stage is, well, like theatrics on a stage, not the full picture. Division is fed to us on social media, news media, from our politicians, and by proxy from our friends and family...
Division sells, but Unity Strengthens...
I think we really witnessed something crucial. When politics are center stage in a discussion, division is easy. Yet when we set it aside, connection and unity are real. When Politics are the only defining feature of what one makes one's self to be, division and arguments are incredibly common. But when we choose to focus on the other things that make us ... us... we can find plenty of common ground and cause to support each other.
In a world that is more "connected" than ever before via the internet... that same medium removes that human element and facilitates a mentality of assumptions about the other people. It makes it easier to sow hate and division.
This series shed light on a light, and truth, that if more Americans were able to see, our country and society would be much better off.
Some say Trump being president will solve it all, others say Harris will. Others say Stein, or Kennedy... But no politician is going to fully heal the divide. We need a paradigm shift of how folks connect with each other and this is an amazing step in that direction.
Thank you to the storytellers that are leading us towards healing!
As Christians we should know that there is only unity in Christ, neutrality is a myth. in Christianity there is not common ground for her heretical views on abortion and gay pastors
While it puzzles me how anyone is still undecided at this point, I do appreciate and agree with your perspective. The truth is that we have more in common than we have differences. While those differences are likely sensitive and significant, we should work as hard as we can to capitalize on the things we agree on.
No Democrat supporter can be a Christian. Oil and water don't mix. God has no accord with Satan. Jesus doesn't support abortion, homo, pedo, t-rans. To vote for people who support that is to go completely against God.
Well said.
I voted for the same person 3 times, yet I can still understand how people are undecided. Do you see how many switched parties?
Wait the channel is at 1 Million? Let’s go! Congratulations!
Wow I didn’t even notice, I remember it was pretty small like 20k and couldn’t believe it wasn’t bigger … well here it is 1mil 😮
Both of them were shocked at how Normal the other person was. Thats the truth. We weren't split like this as a country until Occupy Wall Street. We got too close to the money (the real problem) so they used the news to make us fight each other, instead of focusing on the REAL Problem... big corporations who fund the politicians, so the politicians do what their donors say. Even if it is bad for our country.
Obama divided nearly everyone.
The crazy part for me,is how I have had friends from different walks of life without full issue for decades until the last decade. Now it feels like we have to make friends based on our politics. Obviously we do not have too,but it feels tht way. This energy is probably why I only have 2 good friends,where can talk about it all without issue. Even with different political views,we still see eachother.
Hi Brad,
I’m a guy from Mauritius and I’ve watched every SINGLE one of your videos. I wanted to share my wholesome love for this one-it’s absolutely fantastic. Keep finding more sponsors and pushing forward, you’re not far from hitting 50 million subs.
Lots of love and support from Mauritius! ♥
Also love Liam such a genuine guy.
I really enjoyed this series! I am a firm believer that we should all get along despite of our differences. However, I do wish that we could talk about our differences without getting so emotional. I truly like to hear why people think differently then myself but everyone assumes that I’m trying to start an argument when I ask them a question. The important thing is to not throw insults or derogatory remarks because that only escalates things. Also, don’t try to back someone into a corner just to prove a point. We have to respect each other.
I was impressed by how Micah & Christian acknowledged when things were getting heated and put a stop to conversation until they calmed down & became grounded. Great job by both of them!!!❤
The issue is when you refer to one side as racist, misogynistic, transphobic fascists as the Media has done, it makes it very difficult to find that middle ground. If you're on the left, you can not be associated with that at all while if you're on the right, you're going WTF with those labels...
@@davidtsang4949 if the shoe fits? Obviously its hard to admit to underlying racism but its built into the very fabric of America. We were run on racism lead by the ultra wealthy.

I cannot believe you guys dont get more attention, this has been a beautiful series, thank you for what you guys do, and thank you to both Christian and Micah!
What’s dope about this is I didn’t clock them as fighting or not getting along. Talking through discomfort and differences without tearing each other down is how we grow as humans. This was beautiful to watch, thank you

Dude, they are both awesome people on different political spectrums that came together at such a divisive time.. they are awesome.
Yo, DC. First, I love your content. You showed me how simple citizens of USA live and dream. Second, and moreover, you successfully proven a point to me, a thing that really concerns me as a young man living in a country at war. That despite the political differences and ideologies, we shall not ever forget that the person we are standing next to is not "name"-supporter, but first and foremost a Person. There's a strong age gap in politics in my country that tears families apart: old people lived in my country for so long that it's hard for them to imagine the other, not theirs, say of living. On the other side, there's young pals like me who were shown better lives when we were growing up, just to see how everything can go wrong in less than a decade. Thank for reminding me and all the people out there that unconditional respect still exist and thrives - all we need is just look closer. TY so much
Let me just say this, I'm queer, I'm trans. I'm as far from Trump as possible but I like Micah so much more. He's genuine, down-to-earth, he's honest, he isn't afraid to admit when he's wrong or upset someone. He's always up for a challenge and putting his best foot forward. It doesn't matter his views, political or not, he is a good man.

When I was a kid, the word "queer" was a hateful slur for homosexuals. Language has changed so much in such a short time, which is another reason for so much division. People are unable to communicate effectively when they speak different languages and have different definitions for the words they use.
Most of us are like Micah. People only pay attention to the loud ones. On both sides ... I miss the 90s and earlier when your political leaning was a private matter

Got recommended this series from the algorithm and I'm impressed, awesome idea and channel, subbed
Micah and Christian were both awesome, kudos to them for partaking in this video
I remember in high school hearing a very civil conversation between people who heavily disagreed politically. Basically they were both like "I disagree, because..." Very polite, they took time to listen to and even try to understand the other person. It was very satisfying and not something you get every day.
Major kudos to Christian. It must have felt like everyone was against her including the skydiving people, but she held her ground fairly well. Plus, she was a woman hanging out with only guys. That can be intimidating too. I am a woman who voted for Trump, but I can tell that Christian is a lovely person. We need to close the gap amongst Americans. Much love ❤
Kudos to BOTH.
As a woman and someone who has voted Trump since 16, I had the same thoughts. Being surrounded by the opposite gender can be a little isolating and as a female surrounded by males has a bit of an intimidation factor.
Everyone seemed like quality people that were concerned with others' well being so that helps.
Yes, both Micah and Christian were great about being open to find connection despite political differences.
Christian was not only very bright, but she was the positive one between the two. If it wasn't for her graciousness, the day would have ended early. A true Kamala supporter.
@christinewhite6879 A true American 😁
@@christinewhite6879I understand her logic with the hate, but I thought it was odd she could not understand the message about government on the window of the Ford.. Really strange.
They both seem like they have good hearts.
Ohhh you’re the cooking guys!! Glad I watched those videos so that this came up in my feed.
What a cool series. This one went about as well as I expected it to. Gotta admit the rage against the machine shirt had me rolling, but I'm glad it at least mostly worked out.
That was an awesome experiment!!! It’s what the world needs more of! THANK YOU.
I saw healthy conversations and light poking fun. Without having an honest open dialogue, we get stuck in our bubbles. I would consider it a problem if we didn't talk to one another due to political differences. What makes America great, is being able to have differences of opinion and lifestyles with the freedom to do so. It opens up more dialogue, and understanding, and viewpoints can possibly change, but most important, to build a relationship with one another, and not creating a civil war amongst each other. Without conversation, pent up anger and rage towards another is inevitable, and hate for each side starts to form. There is a lot more in common between both sides than we think. Both seem to care about their families, friends, and the right to think whatever they want. That's how it should be.
That experiment was so brave of you. I imagine there's a lot of things that could go awkwardly bad... But It turned out really good, I'm amazed that the whole thing was even possible. In short, great job!
The irony of a Conservative wearing a Rage Against the Machine shirt and actually pointing it out himself with pride is wonderful
THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOURE DOING! This work that you guys are doing is SO important to the world right now. Beyond you can imagine!!! I got emotional at one point. You guys are amazing!
Fantastic series! I was disappointed last night when I finished 1 and 2, that 3 wasn't up, and happy to get to watch it today. I honestly don't remember being that excited about watching a documentary series for years!
Not taking sides but just wanted to point this out:
1: I love Micah’s rage against the machine shirt because they are a kickass band
2: all 4 members of the band are left and think trump is the machine so he is kind of incorrect and it’s funny at 8:55
Yea that’s why I though it was funny
Yeah…they are a super left leaning band that sings about condemning fascism and authoritarianism…which is exactly what the Right stands for. I was in college in the 90s, and politics were ENTIRELY different than today. Kinda funny that now the Left is the fascist totalitarian party!
And they're not just kind of left.. They're VERY left. The whole band is based on left leaning ideologies more or less.
I think that's why so much of what Micah says in this video annoys me. I don't know all the struggles he's been through but so much of what he likes and says just seems ironic. Same with that skydiving instructor. "We call you a parrot." Then multiple cuts of Micah parroting right wing talking points like abortion and being wrong about what's in the bible, even when Christian tries to correct him. "Only Democrats kill people" as if Trump's violent rhetoric, January 6th, and two Republican attempted assassins don't exist. Christian's surprise at a Mexican being a Trump supporter really sells it.
How can you politically debate people that you can't even take seriously because their whole worldview seems like a South Park parody on logic?
Yeah….i think Trump has to pick songs from dead people, too many musicians got pissed I just went to a Green Day concert. That was awesome….felt connected
Congrats on 1 million!
Great video! Connecting with people outside of politics and really listening to their side is key. We dont have to change each others views..just get to know them better!
Just a heads up… I almost didn’t click on this video because I was looking for Micah and Christian, not the two random people you show with the thumbnail. It threw me a bit. I’m glad I did but I wonder how many people are waiting for the follow up video of Micah and Christian and don’t click on this because you show these 2 different people at the table?
It was a nice ending. Thanks for doing what you did.
Jen. Australia. ❤️🙏🕊️❤️
Agreed, they definitely need to change the thumbnail to Micah and Christian, seems pretty obvious, I didn't click the first time I saw it but luckily read the title when it popped back up in Recommended the 2nd time around👍
VALID. If I didn’t assume this was the follow up video I wouldn’t have clicked for the “new” topic….. should definitely use them in the thumbnail which I think would be more fun to not just have you sitting at a table with stand-ins
but I am also preprogrammed to click every DC video at this point! Lol so I’ll still end up watching
Just stumbled upon your channel and watched all three episodes the night before the election. I’m Canadian so it’s not even my election, but I’m invested. This was a great experiment and so well executed!
Congrats on 1 million guys you deserve it.🎉🎉
The comment on alien life was an amazing argument, I haven't heard the one before. Great job Micah
Saying mexicans/foreigners cant vote for trump is weird because most foreigners are more conservative then the average american
White ppl acting like they know best what a Mexican person should be voting for is nothing new unfortunately
Trump is not just conservative, he also insults Mexicans and foreigners and says he plans policies against them.
Illegal ones and ones who hurt this country @@nasuresessense
@@nasuresessensefalse
Just be cautious when you say “foreigners”, there are many countries that are more liberal than you think you know.
That moment when it was 3 men vs Christian, she handled that pretty well.
Me and my spouse are opposites in choice of party candidates, married 14+ years! We have lots of friends even neighbors that hold different political views and we are all kind and polite to each other! We exchange food, pick up packages for each other, help each other, visit each other in hospital, In reality majority of people with opposite views are more kinder and polite and nicer to each other than the media portrays.
My mom and late father are also opposite ends of the political spectrum. We have mail in ballot in our state. When I was a senior is hs, he watched us fill out our ballots and told us if we didn’t vote for McCain that he’d kick me out of the house and divorce her. I think most of the time, relationships like that just don’t work. Didn’t matter to him that what he did to us was illegal.
@ Respect is very important in a family, especially respect in difference of opinions. That is unfortunate that your father let political views drive family apart.
@@Bobbyheebee Seems that he was blackmailing you and your mother and was psychologically abusive towards you both in different ways, which is beyond basic differences in political views. He was just using the political differences as a wedge in his psychological abusive behavior to hurt you! Which is unfortunate!
The media is a big reason that we are so divided.We don’t have honest none bias news anymore.
My wife and I generally vote the same, but we have pretty widely different views on things.
Thanks for trying to do something like this. In a world so divided, it's more important than ever that people look for ways to connect. We all want a better world for our loved ones and future generations. We can get there together.
I've loved every moment of this series. This is not only enlightening and engaging content, but important right now. I've admired you guys for a while for your belief in the power of human connection and the only way for people to overcome their differences at times of such huge divisiveness like this is by genuinely connecting and sharing ideas.
It's incredible that a pair of Canadians are the guys making this content in the US, but I'm so glad you did. This series was such an excellent idea and you executed it perfectly. Micah and Christian were such great finds too, they're really the ideal people for this.
I really hope you're proud of what you've created here, you totally deserve to be.
Thank you so much for doing this experiment! I loved all three parts. When it comes down to it, we're all just people who want/need connection.
This is so beautiful. This channel reminds me of the old Yes Theory, when they were actually good and went out of their comfort zone.
It's really nice to see that two completely opposing sides can get along with each other, and is a true testament to human connection, thank you for making this.
I’m glad I got to watch this! Both of are awesome 👏
Wow this is so raw, real and honest. Gives me tears of hope. Love to everyone discovering connection❤🍀
1 minute in and i already feel super anxious for you guys, hope it works out :)
This is the most enjoyable video series I have seen in a long time. I was smiling and laughing during the whole video today. What a joy to watch! The media and politicians are the ones dividing the country, and generating this hatred toward one another, but this idea you have "introduced" in this delightful video series by bringing 2 people together with opposing views is the true way to begin the process of ending the division in our country and the rest of the world as well.
Please do more videos like this and little by little our country can be united once again.
I love that you guys did this ! promoting unity and respect for one another is most epic.
I love your channel guys, I have been following it since your first video and I just want to say you're doing an amazing job. The content has improved and it's great to see regular uploads. Keep up the great work, I'll always continue looking forward to your videos and perspectives on life!
“Only Kamala supporters try to kill people” had me DEAD. The look on the instructors face 😂😂😂
😂
It's true.
@@lynda74😂😂😂Sure
@@lynda74it literally isn’t
@@lynda74it’s not..
shoutout to papa roach for always bringing people together @19:30
I'm not a big fan of that band. But I will say I saw them about 20 years ago at a crawfish boil with a bunch of 90s bands. , and that singer had the crowd whipped up in a frenzy that honestly shocked me. He had complete control of that place. Crazy. I don't care much for their music, but that kind of skill fronting a band was just unbelievable.
I think Micah and Christian found more commonality than opposition…and we are ALL Americans…you guys picked 2 great people..this was really cool to watch!
