The episodes from The Neistat Brothers also feel the same. Van just has a knack for using video techniques and equipment when others would find them obsolete to create a deep feeling of nostalgia. (or anemoia for that matter.)
I disagree editing on this one definitely felt so much more disjointed but it’s to be expected he is producing a video to produce one. But some of his old videos that retain amazing if not better than his normal yt vids are his bristly brother series ones or some of his Tom Sachs stuff with casey
@@schrute8087 They started their career there. It was also a storage space for their camera gear. Casey explains in one of his vlogs before he leaves for California. I think it's the one when he builds the wall back up and 'gives' the space to another guy.
So true. When I struggle with my own editing, my sister is like, "but Casey put out a video each day, how hard could it be?" I wanted to throw something at her. People have no idea unless they edit these things on the regular. 🎞️
This is amazing. What a life well lived looks like, such a storied life before the internet was an identical part of our lives. This series makes me want to go out, make movies & art, to go on adventures with friends & learn about myself and what kind of person I want to be
there is one thing stopping you... but it's easy to overcome. Look at U straight in the mirror and tell him that the universe has granted YOU permission to plan a totally spontaneous day doing what ever YOU has wanted to do, see, experience, or complete... for one day. Be sure to return to the mirror and let U know how the adventure fared for YOU. and remember- U and YOU only have one life to live - now go do it:)
actually it was Tom Sachs that inspired and mentored both Casey and Van before the HBO special. The brothers just had different ambitions, trajectories and timelines. Van is making up in a big way! Loving his channel!
This is the only RUclips channel I only watch on the big screen. There's a texture I just don't feel with any other creator. Keep doing what you're doing Spirited Man. Even 1 a week or 1 a month.... I'll wait. Don't break the spirit chasing the grind.
the way you can take "behind the scenes" content and incorporate that into the focus of a video is outstanding! It's like getting to see the genius in the genius work!
Beautiful....its the material compiled on the archive proves he is the OG of vlogging; even it's wave, hit wayback before it is popularized on the so called social media flat form specifically in RUclips. worth watching.
I just loove these videos, Van! The pace, the cinematography, the subtile music and the personality of the Spirited Man, the openness and that calm narrators voice. Thank you, this is so refreshing after all other fast-paced and ego driven videos. Keep em coming and don't push it for the algorythm, do it for us, the people - i think you already have your audience. :))
I have figure out that when everyone talks about the "Casey" still of making a video, it's not the Casey style, its actually the Van style. Casey just took what he learned from you and made millions $$$ doing it. I think Casey owes you a big hug!
He’s a damn G! Love the Neistat Brothers and love him uploading older videos, showing all of us just how long he’s been excellent at what he does. Long live Van and Casey.
This is just stunning - thank you so much, Van. Brings me back to a feeling I have never experienced somehow, strange to describe. The Neistat Brothers is my all time favorite show, more motivating than any blow. I could talk for hours about this rare and unusual, yet beautiful feeling the show (and some of your videos on this platform and of course on vimeo) gives me. I sincerely hope you are going to release some more stories from the unpublished season 2. Thank you so much for coming to RUclips, I've waited so long for this to happen.
I can totally sympathizes. I made 1 video a week for 3 years, without such amazing production or story, and it was such a hard /rewarding experiences. Amazing work Van I truly appreciate the dedication to art and spirit and the family. I love your work and am a big fan. I could not keep up my channel as one kid turned into two and time with them become the priority. Keep em' coming and I will be here to subscribe!
I can already see that I am going to really love seeing more and more of your archived footage. So CRAZY to see some of the same people and places that Casey has covered/showed from a different perspective.
Well that made me pumped for a trip. Even the journey to San Diego looks fun. I am always amazed at that diagonal cross states journey and how far it is 2,800 miles. I Live in the south of the uk and a 2,800 mile drive would take me to Syria. A hole world away!
I love your videos! I remember feeling so inspired by watching Neistat Brothers back in the day and this is so awesome too! It makes me want to make videos myself!
Can totally relate to this. I spent the last year and a half recording and editing 6-10 (20-40mins) videos every week for my university courses...production time wheeeewww. At least it was all familiar material. Great vid and thank you!
i knew of a guy that used to put out a video every day... his name was 'Casey-something'.... ;) (this is legitimately a very tough schedule - appreciate that you're striving to set a pace you can maintain and continue with! - loving your videos, love your voice here - thanks for all your hard work to share these!)
You do have to make time for your family. Totally understand if you take a few weeks off from making videos. Really enjoy the older video and look forward to your adventure to San Diego and Baja!
To some extent, there is an adventure in everything we do! I know you don't read comments Van, but this was fun to watch! Keep up the great work. Sending love from Cape Town, South Africa. Regards, Tony.
Crazy how old videos have the same vibe as new ones
The episodes from The Neistat Brothers also feel the same. Van just has a knack for using video techniques and equipment when others would find them obsolete to create a deep feeling of nostalgia. (or anemoia for that matter.)

It adds to the timelessness imo
Nostalgia is contagious!
@@anandramaswamy9810 agreed
this is why Casey can't leave that studio... brother love
I can’t understand. What does this have to do with sibling love?
@@schrute8087 They started their career there. It was also a storage space for their camera gear. Casey explains in one of his vlogs before he leaves for California. I think it's the one when he builds the wall back up and 'gives' the space to another guy.
I don't think he has the 318 space still , does he. are you sure?
@@hacklabdesign He still does have his office in NY. You can see it in her recent ones.
@@MisterBlue03 cool, love that lab
"was that bike expensive?"
"naw, I got it in a box of cereal"
😂😂
Perdue is never short of a quick retort.
A 10 minute video that felt like 37 seconds, over way too quickly. Only a Neistat can do that.
It’s so cool to see Van from years ago in the old New York studio.
thank you for being you van, i’m so grateful you started a channel! you’re like the brilliant and wise uncle i never had
So true…. Van is the greatest
Yea my uncle acts like we aint even family 😔
two per week is BRUTAL - way more difficult than people think
So true. When I struggle with my own editing, my sister is like, "but Casey put out a video each day, how hard could it be?" I wanted to throw something at her. People have no idea unless they edit these things on the regular. 🎞️
Yea, two a week is a full time job...Casey is just nuts.
@@sYnSilentStorm True that. I struggle to get out one per week. Editing is crazy, especially if you're meticulous, but I still love it. 🎥🎞️🎞️
That reversed merch clip at the end was so cool.
Genius, i might buy it just because of that😎
I'm so glad you said it's reversed cause I was trying to imagine how to use a leaf blower to lay those out and have them land so perfectly
I didn't expect to see Half-Asleep Chris on here. My 9-year-old daughter watches you nonstop.
rerun tho
Yeah I was wondering about it last time. Leaf Blower? Those things pack some heat.
This is like watching what a Jack Kerouac book would look like as a RUclips channel
This is amazing. What a life well lived looks like, such a storied life before the internet was an identical part of our lives. This series makes me want to go out, make movies & art, to go on adventures with friends & learn about myself and what kind of person I want to be
Do it!!!! You’ll be so glad you did.
there is one thing stopping you... but it's easy to overcome.

I feel the same 🙋♀️
Your life could be a Wes Anderson movie,keep up the amazing videos Van
Van- fun- the archive is lovely- Cheer, Steve aka TTF
This man was Casey Neistat before Casey Neistat was Casey Neistat
this man is van neistat who made casey neistat who he is.
@@bhavukchaudhary casey made casey van made van they are both unique creators
actually it was Tom Sachs that inspired and mentored both Casey and Van before the HBO special. The brothers just had different ambitions, trajectories and timelines. Van is making up in a big way! Loving his channel!
Psshh
It's because his the older brother. Duh.
The most important channel on RUclips
8:09 I first thought that was an advertisement for prime on the billboard
Pure, unadulterated awesomeness.
Absolutely love it. It's Perdue's jokes and Van's qualifiers that do it for me. Among everything else.
You are an amazing Storyteller. Don't lose that with quantity. 400k subs in 4 months is HUGE. I think I'll try the 2 vids a week.
When you watch Van's videos, you really appreciate Casey's year long vlog. EVERY DAMN DAY new video., new content, inspiring messages.
This is the only RUclips channel I only watch on the big screen.
There's a texture I just don't feel with any other creator.
Keep doing what you're doing Spirited Man. Even 1 a week or 1 a month.... I'll wait.
Don't break the spirit chasing the grind.
the way you can take "behind the scenes" content and incorporate that into the focus of a video is outstanding! It's like getting to see the genius in the genius work!
Thumbs up to Car Talk on the radio during your drive out of the city
And a shout-out to our statistician Marge Inoferr
Dear Spirited Man, I will watch every video you produce. Sincerely, partially Spirited Man
These videos are unlike any other in RUclips, they are distinctly amazing.
Beautiful....its the material compiled on the archive proves he is the OG of vlogging; even it's wave, hit wayback before it is popularized on the so called social media flat form specifically in RUclips. worth watching.
Please do a series on your unique way of organizing your office/shop/studio.
*files* / *asset management*
I love this. Such a Spirited Man thing to do.
This is sharp story. so good. third time im watching it
I just loove these videos, Van! The pace, the cinematography, the subtile music and the personality of the Spirited Man, the openness and that calm narrators voice. Thank you, this is so refreshing after all other fast-paced and ego driven videos. Keep em coming and don't push it for the algorythm, do it for us, the people - i think you already have your audience. :))
2:18 the music that transports us into another world
"the answer is in the attempt" this is what jumped out at me from this video and i'm reallly glad I heard that :)
2:09
You can schedule videos so they publish automatically in the future.
5:36 Cameo of Van's mentor, the one and only Tom Sachs. If you have yet to see his stuff...you need to!
Congrats for the 400k!!! The Spirited Man!
I have figure out that when everyone talks about the "Casey" still of making a video, it's not the Casey style, its actually the Van style. Casey just took what he learned from you and made millions $$$ doing it. I think Casey owes you a big hug!
This is one of my favorite videos of your Van :) Your old footage is so well shot and narrated.
Favorite channel based on: Storytelling, Original Content, the Remington Typewriter, and Spiritedness.
Wow you have stockpiles of stories!... I'm excited about your old trips, and excited about your future trip. Good luck!
The more I watch these videos the more I can see where casey got all his inspiration from.
He’s a damn G! Love the Neistat Brothers and love him uploading older videos, showing all of us just how long he’s been excellent at what he does. Long live Van and Casey.
this is my favorite one so far. more old videos PLEASE!
"Get off my property." Loved it.
Absolutely fantastic footage Van - You are truly an inspiration for spirited people!
This is just stunning - thank you so much, Van. Brings me back to a feeling I have never experienced somehow, strange to describe.

van will soon be huge!
"The Spirited Man prepares for the clip show, years before the show starts"
Great video. Hope that vein you found runs deep. Enjoy your trip!
So much crazy talent in one family - I can see why you're Casey's hero Van!!
Ah a little glimpse of the New York studio, makes me smile.
It's like a movie sequence , you watch the prestory, how everything started, the studio. Can't describe my emotions watching this
I can totally sympathizes. I made 1 video a week for 3 years, without such amazing production or story, and it was such a hard /rewarding experiences. Amazing work Van I truly appreciate the dedication to art and spirit and the family. I love your work and am a big fan.

Fantastic. Loved the footage, and the short car talk radio segment. I miss driving with my dad and listening to Tom and Ray
Brother, you are truly inspiring. Love the archive footage. Keep the nostalgia coming!
nice!
click and clack, the tappet brothers.
Hanging out with Nev from Catfish before he was Nev from Catfish
I thought that was him and came to the comments to confirm this ha
"Get off my property" broke me up.
Loving the Neistat Brothers vibe on this vid.
Another amazing video
I can already see that I am going to really love seeing more and more of your archived footage. So CRAZY to see some of the same people and places that Casey has covered/showed from a different perspective.
just when i start thinking positively about my life, considering it interesting and full of adventure: another Neistat's video drops
Thank you for sharing the fruits of your journey
This is my new favorite channel on RUclips
I'm commenting before the video starts because i know Van wouldn't disappoint us!
Lessss gooo SpiritedMan
Great story Van. Can't wait to see past Day 1.
On the “Visibility” tab, select Schedule.
Then set the date, time, and time zone that you want your video to be published. Done.
i think he is smart enough to know that.
@@amp776 i haven't seen any comment he liked or replied...so slim chance of him reading this one.
@@bhavukchaudhary he said he has taken the joe rogan route and doesn't read the comments but on some earlier videos he has replied to comments
I’m reading! I sent him a screenshot of the recommendation - it’s helpful!
@@isabel-rj4kd nice!
Well that made me pumped for a trip. Even the journey to San Diego looks fun. I am always amazed at that diagonal cross states journey and how far it is 2,800 miles. I Live in the south of the uk and a 2,800 mile drive would take me to Syria. A hole world away!
Love the weaving of old and new video videos 🤩
Wow, that's Casey's studio from the very beginning! 6:30
I love your videos! I remember feeling so inspired by watching Neistat Brothers back in the day and this is so awesome too! It makes me want to make videos myself!
I feel like more life will be lived in this video series than the last two years of mine
Loved hearing Click and Clack from CarTalk in the background
Car Talk best radio show of all time.
2 things I like forward to; Christmas and Spirited Man videos.
Can totally relate to this. I spent the last year and a half recording and editing 6-10 (20-40mins) videos every week for my university courses...production time wheeeewww. At least it was all familiar material. Great vid and thank you!
All the old clips has similar spirited vibe as the new videos🙌 legend
The father of "the vlog", I loved the copyright bit at the end, -- Great video, Van!!
Thanks for inspiration Big Man!
Pure gold indeed.
Your videos are so rousing. Too bad I can't watch them daily! I really enjoy them :D
Van, one of your more creative vlogs, I very much enjoyed it.
I was all strapped in for the full trip across the country - I lost my sense of time as I was drawn into your video.
I can't wait for my new XL Spirited Man Pentel Pencil t-shirt!
The adventure before the adventure begins!
This was an amazing video, feel free to drop more of them any time. P.S. Van, you have the most beautiful eyes!
My favorite video yet! Thanks!
7:40 THE OFFICE OF LEGENDS
Hey! You should do 5 days a week of content. The creativity is inspiring
Sooooo good!!! Well done Van
i knew of a guy that used to put out a video every day... his name was 'Casey-something'.... ;)
(this is legitimately a very tough schedule - appreciate that you're striving to set a pace you can maintain and continue with! - loving your videos, love your voice here - thanks for all your hard work to share these!)
You do have to make time for your family. Totally understand if you take a few weeks off from making videos. Really enjoy the older video and look forward to your adventure to San Diego and Baja!
This is the kind of video that you should make and are so good at! Keep up the good work!
7:09… glad you’re still with us after carrying two gas tanks while smoking a cigarette 😂
Fuck yeah man! So awesome see someone who was a "content creator" before RUclips and show everyone how it's done. Keep it rollin Van, fuck yeah! 👍
To some extent, there is an adventure in everything we do!
I know you don't read comments Van, but this was fun to watch! Keep up the great work.
Sending love from Cape Town, South Africa. Regards, Tony.
"Dude, those tyres are totally gnarly!"
i had a GMC sierra just like yours as my first truck, the odometer broke at 175,863 miles but that was back in ‘09 i’m still drive it around prn
I like watching these old videos of urs when you lived in NY! Ur brother has showed some of them on his channel, really interesting stuff!
Gold. Pure gold.
4:52 Was that bike expensive? NO, I GOT IT IN A BAG OF CEREAL LOL
More old footage mashed together with your epic storytelling pls! Love seeing peculiar things like the DMV decades ago. Nostalgic mmmmm.
Honestly looking forward to part 2. This motivates me to do something like this
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
