@@AbbStar1989 I guess Midnight Oil really did fuck things up there. It's been a few decades since my last visit and I recall some old fart bitching about that band being the downfall of the country. LOL
I think Big Time is the US MCM in the fact that I think when they came to see you in Australia it got their gears turning. They weren't happy with the format at Donut, and seeing you and Marty be successful they are following your lead. You and Marty are living the dream because of your hard work and creativity. Thanks guys.
I'm enjoying the Auto Alex, All The Gear and Top Dead Centre channels... It seems like they're having so much more fun than when they were working for CarThrottle. To me, it looks like controlling your own destiny is key...
I’m taking a break from Alex, I reckon I've had enough of him for a while after getting pumped on CT for so long. ATG and especially TDC I'm really enjoying.
Fabulous comments Moog. Your observations are true for all smaller businesses. Once you take the personal identities out of it they suffer a crisis of who are they until a new personal identity appears. It’s people that matter
Imagine Moog just chillin working on a shitbox down at super garage and a tow truck just shows up with another shitbox Marty bought sight unseen from overseas
I am from Canada, and you probably think I watch mainly USA-based car channels but in fact, I put MCM and many other Aussie automotive channels at the top of my list. Australian automotive channels do punch above their weight and cover cars I am more interested in. In Canada, we could import JDM cars 15 years earlier than the USA, so Australia (Motive, Haltech, MCM, Skid Factory) has always been my main source for info on modding Skylines, doing engine swaps, installing turbos, and solving problems. Thanks for years of hard work and for sharing all of the ups and downs of working on nuggets with your mates!
Mcm has been my go to ever since I was a med student here in the Philippines. It helped me through a lot. I'm a surgeon now and I still have the same E36 since meds school. It's 316i but now it's a supercharged S52B32
17:15 I've lived in Spain for almost 2 years. They also have weird driving laws with fines associated. Driving in flip flops, barefoot, shirtless, having your arm out the window/elbow on the window, or wear a hat that covers your ears: €80 / Drinking water or eating ice cream while driving, or your passenger has their feet on the dash: €100
I actually like you guys doing weird awkward shit it's definitely part of the humor, so random awkward unicorn circuits are definitely hilarious. Martin's turn next
I heard he's starting his own RUclips channel on electric cars called Clean & Green Car, the channel that never was and became that other show run by 2 blokes called Marty and Moog? Poor Martin, he's changed man. I can't believe he's done this.
I thought he went off to start a sugar cane farm to make more ethanol to fuel a turbine powered Giga-Gramps. That or he's on holiday after pulling too many hours working on the next epic nugget...
There's been massive corporate takeovers in America lately, mostly having to do with the restructuring of our economy post covid. I'm pretty sure all of that has hit a plateau, and it's about to change pretty soon.
10:04 and not just "car" specific content. There's a ton of Aussies in my subs. Marty T, who is a lovely individual who fixes just about anything and everything, we have the power triumvirate of Karen, Kurtiss and Homie from CEE... probably one of the best machinist/repair channels at this point in time, Primitive Technology, which even tho he only posts in a while, he's still the OG and it's still interesting to watch. Then we have I did a thing, which is nuts... but fun. LifeOnTheHulls with Ross and his missus who are building... what is THE best catamaran ever made (those who know what's inside multi$ cats know). Two set Violins to sate one's classical mind... and more. Honestly, Australia is one of the powerhouses of entertainment for me and they have been, consistently from the first years of RUclips. MCM aside, there's a few channels that moved on that were early on and their content was ahead of the curve.
I was glad to hear you mention Bennett's Customs. Awesome channel. I would love to see an MCM collab with Jordan and maybe even Karl from Make it Kustom. The styles of content don't really match but it would be fun to see you guys interact in the shop. David Lee Roth. He's the king of the lions after all.
Seeing people like hert, vin, and the ex donut boys being able to do their own thing has been so refreshing. Also shout out to Doug demuro, his content has changed since he sold part of cars and bids but it’s just him goofing of talking with his best friends. He knows it won’t pull big views but it’s what he wants to do. It’s refreshing.
I think Donut can survive, however Car Throttle is another story completely. They had 1 fairly good video in the last month and outside of that nothing to really write home about. The comment section on their last video is also just tons of negative feedback. I honestly find it refreshing to see our favorite hosts doing something enjoy without a big corporation dictating what needs to be done. Also find the content a lot more relatable.
Cant find the Marty video mentioned. Absolutely chomping for some RX7 content. Inb4 Moog sells the datsun for an old rx something :) Or 13b converts it MUAHHAHA
I owned the hooptiest hooptie that ever hooptied. 1994 Ford Topaz automatic that I had to block the front tyre in order to exit the vehicle in order to place the vehicle into park manually.
@@edwardfletcher7790 no dramas! If you asked me about (probably a lot of) AUS delivered models that we didn't get in the USDM, I'd be fairly clueless unless MCM has taught me about them!
Yours, Matt Armstrong's and Vicegrip garage are probably the only ones that will be left because you guys are real enthusiasts And yes, being picky when it comes to sponsorshipdeals is definitely important
15:34 never been brand loyal. I think... the only bit of what could be called "brand" that i ever got from YT was ... oddly enough, your car book. But that's more like a celebration of cars. As you said in one of your older videos, great coffee table book. Brands have no ... substance for me. They're not worth the hassle and often enough, the stuff they provide is lost on my ears. I look to the people, their personalities, their interactions. My subs here are people first, content second, and everything after that. And it's the same in my life. I don't have a special screwdriver for my PC, i don't have a confectionery branded T-shirt, there's no stickers on my vehicles other than tax, and i'm generally not brand loyal in anything i own or do. The product is good? Ok. Then we talk.
From ChatGPT: «Building sandcastles on beaches in Spain is not universally illegal, but some regions and municipalities have specific regulations and restrictions. In some tourist-heavy areas, local authorities have banned sandcastle building due to safety and environmental concerns, such as the potential obstruction of pathways for emergency services or the disruption of natural habitats.» So there's that!
Dude...everyone. DDE...shmee 150....tarvaish....mat....jww....all the car guys...but you guys ate incredible and I look forward to your videos all the time. ❤
Yeah the thing with youtubers vs. actors is that with youtube you have to assume somebody isn't just acting out a script that they don't really support or care about, for money. You MCM guys, ChrisFix, audio reviewers, tons of Japan vloggers, etc. aren't just faces given a script in front of a camera. The vast majority of youtubers aren't doing acting gigs, it's people with a passion about something and they start making videos about. When that genuine grass roots factor goes in the bin some people would feel rightfully deceived. I wouldn't throw a fit over it, but this is what makes youtube relatable. As you put it the music/band analogy works great here. Didn't realize people were THAT upset over the whole Donut thing since it felt like a big team production from the get-go.
It seems to me all the good car stuff is still on RUclips, a couple of presenters, some sponsors, some great builds; all those multitudes of TV shows - let's call out Orange County, Gas Monkey and so on, but there are plenty of others - have basically disappeared in favour of Drive to Survive and its clones. The money makers will always be looking for the next big thing, but all we have to do is watch and support our channels of choice.
I’ve been watching you guys for like 15 years (I was in highschool I’m 29 now). You guys may be the only channel I’ve kept up with. I remember you guys getting after it in someone’s moms garage or something testing those garbage $15 electric “turbo chargers” I still say “get chopped” to the boys because you guys haha Don’t change Marty and moog (and all your recurring m8s) you’re literally the best channel out there. Love from America
As someone just 6 months into having a RUclips channel some very interesting commentary thanks for sharing your thoughts Moog - huge respect for what you guys do.
Dang it, I was about to go to sleep. I wonder if you guys could make this into a podcast. I think that with adding the episode into a podcast playlist, RUclips does it automatically.
I “rewatch” or occasional first watch as just a listen. Quite frequent for a white noise at bedtime. The tube lets me lock my screen so I’ll listen at work too.
I was a bank teller for a well known Aussie Bank and weirdly looked like the actor in an old popular TV commercial. So many people would seriously believe I was the dude on the TV ads. It wouldn't matter what I said it would not convince them it wasn't me. In the end I would say, "yep, thx that's me!". 😂
If you haven't already you should talk with The Exponent podcast guys. They cover this walled garden and platform creation, curation, and market building a LOT and have some great takes oni t.
For me I feel I want to be entertained (and possibly educated) by a form of media that is honest and upfront about what it is. Call me naive but I like to be able to enjoy something at face value. For example I watched Storage Wars for ages before I found out it is all made up. Actors playing the bidders, ‘bins’ (storage lockers) completely staged etc. I instantly stopped watching and felt cheated, lied to and manipulated even though it is kind of obvious when you actually think about it. I now watch many programmes wondering if they’re also staged more than just the usual stuff media does to make something entertaining. My point is; media, content, tv shows, news outlets etc shouldn’t pretend to be one thing, while they are actually something completely different. To me it’s fraud and a form of manipulation that leaves a fowl taste in the mouth. Anywhere else in society it would be called out for what it is. (you hope!)
Clarkson, May, and Hammond are the goats of top gear. I haven't watched since. Now that you are a host , I will watch it again. Good luck, Sir, and I look forward to your future content. U.S.A!!!
@@oliverwange8264 best I can figure is it's a case of grass is greener on the other side sorta thing. But with the Holden swaps over there you could argue that that's how they're supposed to be, as they were built here by holden
You tube messed with some settings on people's settings and they need to put it back to seeing all content which got switched off. This is why a lot of people aren't getting the notifications.
someone on another youtube channel said the 'rumor' about roadkill even starting on youtube was because youtube offered them a contract worth millions to produce content,(mainly roadkill,but this spawned into roadkill garage,engine masters and a few other shows) and when that contract ended ten motorsport (ther production company) pulled the plug. also some of my other youtube channels that i watch have stated RUclips are giving out less money and trying to push content makers into shorter non profitable tic tok style videos, making youtube unviable or viable only with merch sales and sponsorship deals
The band analogy you raised is so true. I cannot reconcile the changes to TSF. I should not be so affected by it. But I am. It should have had a name change.
Same here. It really hit a chord..... Seriously tho, Al was the lead singer and woody was barely even a rodie. I haven't wantched an episode since he left.... I just can't do it.
That puppet reminds me about a talented female ventriloquist singing with this puppet (or look-alike). She was for months in my IG feed, but disappeared. I guess she moved on and left the bigger company 😂
Thanks for information about how long you guys were together I was one of the people that thought you and the top gear boys we’re getting better and better 😂 love Marty’s input this episode
Also with folks leaving they are using their notoreity and likeness to their own benefit instead of someone else's. You cant fault someone for that. On top of the creative freedom. It will be interesting when these channels start making actors sign non-compete agreements with their contracts....
I'm surprised they don't already. I'm sure Linus media group have openly stated they have non-compete clauses on their employees for years. Maybe that's changed since

said the 'rumor' about roadkill even starting on youtube
was because youtube offered them a contract worth millions
to produce content,(mainly roadkill,but this spawned into roadkill garage,engine masters and a few other shows)
and when that contract ended ten motorsport (ther production company)
pulled the plug.
also some of my other youtube channels that i watch have stated RUclips are giving out less money and
trying to push content makers into shorter non profitable tic tok style videos,
making youtube unviable or viable only with merch sales and sponsorship deals
Yeah could be, things changing is a certainty!
The band analogy you raised is so true. I cannot reconcile the changes to TSF. I should not be so affected by it. But I am.
It should have had a name change.
Same here. It really hit a chord.....
Seriously tho, Al was the lead singer and woody was barely even a rodie. I haven't wantched an episode since he left.... I just can't do it.
That puppet reminds me about a talented female ventriloquist singing with this puppet (or look-alike). She was for months in my IG feed, but disappeared. I guess she moved on and left the bigger company 😂
But we watch you guys because you are yourselves.
Simple honesty is rare on RUclips
Thanks for information about how long you guys were together I was one of the people that thought you and the top gear boys we’re getting better and better 😂 love Marty’s input this episode
Wow, this was familiar, yet very different for sure. Loads of super interesting pondering and just straight facts packed in the video too 👍
Now this is rare to see. Marty agreeing with everything Moog says.
Also with folks leaving they are using their notoreity and likeness to their own benefit instead of someone else's. You cant fault someone for that. On top of the creative freedom. It will be interesting when these channels start making actors sign non-compete agreements with their contracts....
I'm surprised they don't already. I'm sure Linus media group have openly stated they have non-compete clauses on their employees for years. Maybe that's changed since
The background behind Moog should be on some merch. Please!
Kind of surprised how well Moog did this by himself without making it awkward. Good job, moog! 👍
Puppet? I thought he was sulking.
I looked up the Spain thing… Yo, it’s sandcastles, bonfires, also wearing your swimwear off the beach can catch you fines.
