Contrapoints' "Who do you think I am? Lindsay Ellis?" and Lindsay's "Well it appears that I have been summoned" still lives rent free in my head and I will always thank them both for that joke
Hearing her voice and knowing she's okay is great - and I very much may be subscribing to Nebula to hear her takes again. I really appreciate her insight. So glad I saw this.
What is she doing over at Nebula? I was thinking about how much I miss her content recently. EDIT: answered a minute and 30 seconds in, a show about lotr :P
It's pretty great over there. They can do a lot more over there without the typical worries of being on YT.
She posted a new video a month or two ago on Nebula, and I swear I got emotional when I heard her voice again after all this time 😂
I would like to subscribe to Nebula, but they only take credit cards :(
Nebula is a pretty good service. I would like to see more explicitly political / leftist creatoes there, but am mostly content with what they have.
Lindsay's discomfort with the spotlight is a big part of what makes her so relatable & leads to people demanding more public appearances.
It's truly a vicious cycle.
I'm glad that the youtube algorithm, despite all of its flaws, still knows I am in love with Lindsay Ellis and will listen to anything she appears on.
God I miss Lindsay so much. She was an incredible creator. MISS YOU LINDSAY!! Just happy to hear you're doing okay!!
" she didn't apologize for this problematic thing she said"... "is that the same thing as laying of thousands of people and lowering safety standards below the legal limit in your factories ?" ...... "... yeah!!!"
Dead.
I am dead now.
Like the French say, "mort de rire", Lindsay, you legend
I’m Asian. That unintentionally-digging-the-hole-deeper tweet, which I’m only aware of bc of the Mask Off video, made me laugh my ass off as well.
Peace and blessings to you Lindsay
You too, thanks for doing this interview.
I’m Asian too and this whole controversy is just completely asinine. I’m so mad it pushed her off social media for so long.
I spent a solid week trying to figure out why people were mad at her and couldn't figure it out. The explanation just didn't make any sense, it was so minor and taken out of context. Just insanity. Kept thinking I HAD to be missing something. Nope, just crazy people wanting to be mad and making up reasons to do so.
So many other people and channels also made the same joke without backlash
That's just Twitter. It's a dumpster fire. Every time I stumble in there I'm just bewildered by how insane everyone seems.
Sometimes, RUclips's algorithm isn't actually broken
a broken clock is right twice a day
Ahhh! Lindsay Ellis. I literally just rewatch your content all the time. Good to hear you are well.
Literally? You don't sleep or do other things? You literally watch her content non-stop all the time? 24 hours a day, seven days a week? That's pretty impressive.
@@HarryBuddhaPalm I literally mean 24/7. Literally.
HOLY SHIT I DIDN'T KNOW LINDSAY WAS PREGGERS AT SOMEPOINT. Good on her for keeping her private life!
Having this video be the first thing I've ever seen of your channel and just seeing "NDA Lindsey Ellis" I was really nervous to listen. But this was a very nice and interesting chat to listen to.
wait, she had a kid? Wow, congrats
2 minutes in, I would just like to say that the absence is very much felt and is probably going to be the reason I finally subscribe to Nebula even though I hate subscription services on general principle
Same, I’ve never even considered nebula but her presence alone is making me consider it
good to hear lindsay is doing fine :) can't necessarily help her out my pocket, but i do wish her success and lots of money in the near future
Just got recommended this randomly, never heard of this dude but he gets auto-credit for association with Lindsay so I hope more people see this. She’s been missed so much! Guess I gotta go to Nebula!
Knowing Lindsay Ellis is on Nebula might finally be the final thing that will get me on it
I missed hearing Lindsey's voice since she stepped back from the public eye. Many times I'd have her entire RUclips playlist in my background while I am working. I am happy to hear she sounds content and happy. Thank you for posting this episode!
Okay nothing else gave me the desire to get nebula more than hearing Lindsay has a new LOTR video
Probably someone already said this sooner, but i didn't know that "Patrick Willem's Agent" was also "the founder of Nebula."
That bit's a lot funnier now.
I could cry getting to hear Lindsay Ellis after so long.
I always learn something from her videos. My RUclips recommendations have felt very dumb without her presence.
"You made the classic mistake of being a woman on the Internet."
OOF
Every time I learn something new about Lindsay's relationships with other essayists, it's always such a rising tide sort of thing. It's just nice.
This video randomly showed up in my recommended. I had no idea Lindsay had come out with any kind of new content lately. As soon as this video is over I'm going to go sign up for Nebula. I've been watching Lindsay's content from the very beginning, and yes Lindsay, you are absolutely right - it definitely was not your actual audience who turned against you. I can't wait to watch your new stuff on Nebula!!
I really enjoyed Lindsay's Lord or the Rings video on Nebula, it was so well done. I also recently finally read Axiom's End, so well written and captivating. I just picked up the sequel Truth of the Divine and plan to read it shortly. Her take on Sci-fi is refreshing.
I'm pleasantly surprised to see all the positivity in the comments section. Lindsay was one of numerous FilmTubers (a few others being Every Frame A Painting, Patrick Willems, and Royal Ocean Film Society) who really changed the way I view cinema as an art form, and I really miss hearing her thoughts on the subject. She had come a long way from her Channel Awesome years, and it showed in the professional quality of her post-CA videos. It's just a shame that she got harassed off of social media over an ice cold take on a lousy Disney movie no one cares about anymore. Also, listening to this podcast after watching Lady Emily's excellent The Return of Channel Awesome's Demo Reel serves as a reminder of how badly Doug Walker has stagnated by comparison.
I'm glad there's a place where we can get some of Lindsay's productions. I enjoy her work.
There are no words for how much I miss Lindsey Ellis :(
Really need to get Nebula if I can get some money put together.
If you're on her Patreon, she made a deal with Nebula that all of her patreon supporters have access to her Nebula content (only her content, no other Nebula creators), so that's a way to get it cheaper than the regular Nebula subscription :)
@@joannamarieart🙏🏿Thank you so much for this info! I really miss her content but I really couldn't afford a new sub service that I barely use.
If you find another RUclipsr who is on nebula, you can find a deal where you sign up for curiosity stream and get nebula for free. The curiosity stream sub is about $20 annually and pretty good on it's own.
Welp, I guess I should look at Nebula more seriously.
my Nebula sub was worth it solely for the sheer influx of joy I felt seeing a new Lindsay video appear after she left yt...her videos have become a comfort to me and I can't imagine a world without her voice in it. Thank you Lindsay for continuing to set the standard for online creators, and congrats on the damn baby!
Glad to hear Lindsay again and that she's doing well - I have a Nebula subscription, but rarely use it unless a YT video mentions there's exclusive content (YT's content discovery system is much better in general for finding new uploads, maybe this will improve on Nebula with time, hopefully!), but I'll have to check it for the LotR video :)
Have also been meaning to log in to watch Abby's play, if that's up yet. So glad that option is available so I don't have to fly all the way to the TERF Island, lol.
I don't think The Prince is on Nebula yet; I think Abby mentioned that it will be up sometime in 2023? And I feel that; I didn't want to go all the way down to London to see it so I'm so glad she recorded it.
I did NOT know Lindsay is on Instagram, let alone that's where she spends all her time! Thank you *immediately follows*
She's the reason I finally got a Nebula sub
Oh thank God she's OK. God bless Lindsay Ellis.
Listen, if Lindsay starts posting about her thoughts on the new Transformers trailer/coming movie on Nebula, I'm gonna HAVE to finally sign up...
I need her opinions on not! PAAANK arcee.
Oh man, it was driving me crazy that y'all didn't know the origin of Bitch Eating Crackers. Back in the earlyish Facebook days when someecards were all the rage, there was a pink one that said "Once you hate someone, everything they do is offensive. 'Look at this bitch eating crackers like she owns the place.'" That image has lived in my head rent-free for like 15 years and now it's just a generic saying. 💀
I am so glad that I am on nebula, even more excited that Lindsey can continue to make new videos for nebula. The LOTR video was terrific!
It's nice to get this little peek behind the curtains about Nebula. I sometimes watch and listen to creators and think, "*youtube creator* has a similar kind of vibe to *other creators* on Nebula. I wonder if they will be on the platform any time soon." And now I know that it's a process that takes time and vetting. So they may be on any day now. Maybe sometime I'll see Sideways, Folding Ideas, and maybe even Internet Historian and I'll be able to download and listen to them on my way to work (and maybe at work too)
Anyway, great info and I am very much looking forward to Lindsay's next videos.
On the comments on Nebula thing, I think the other reason that patreon & a creator's reddit get less toxic interaction than they would on say a video is that, those spaces are expressly for that creator and attract that audience specifically and more exclusively. Like, yes, Nebula is a paid service, but it's a paid service for a BUNCH of creators with a wide audience, and parts of that audience might not like the other parts, so you're just as likely to get the deluge still even if it is smaller due to a smaller subscriber base.
RUclips is not the same without Lindsay
Lindsey Ellis is BACK??????? THANK GOD. I can't wait to go watch that Nebula series!!!
Oh my gravy I was looking at your thumbnail, Dave, for all this time trying to figure out where I’ve seen your face. I couldn’t figure it out because I don’t listen to tech information. Then I realized your the agent in Patrick Willems videos! Ha!
Really glad to see that she hasn't allowed the Twits to completely run her off the Internet.
Lindsay Ellis is a treasure in the Video Essay / Reviewing Community. YT Bullies are the worst.
Lindsay's postmortem video on Game of Thrones is amazing. I highly recommend it to those who haven't watched it.
great conversation :) loved hearing from both lindsay and dave. hope you both have a good december and a great 2023!
All the love and support for Lindsay Ellis. Thank you for the great podcast (?) I’m definitely going to check out Nebula to hear more from Lindsay Ellis.
I miss her media analysis. There really hasn’t been much like it on RUclips.
Look up Pop Culture Detective, they’re pretty good!
F.D. signifier and Khadija Mbowe are great black video essayists
I hate to make comparisons, but Little Hoot reminds me a bit of Lindsay Ellis. Also, verilybitchie does great queer media analysis.
I didn't realize she was back on Nebula. That's definitely making me consider subscribing, but my budget is very very tight so I'm not sure when that will be.
I definitely missed her and kept wondering if we get a part 3 of Axioms End. Oddly enough Lindsey talks about lot`s of stuff I`ve never watched and still I found her video essays really interesting to watch.
Dear lord, I'm just glad, Lindsay is ok. I missed her soooo much 😭😭😭
Ahhhhhhhhhh it's so nice hearing her voice again goodness gracious.
Hopefully I can save up some money to subscribe to Nebula for a bit. Lindsay’s critical examination of media always makes my editor heart happy, and there is only so much the rewatches can do. Glad to hear Lindsay is doing okay, and I hope her next book venture goes smoothly!
I have such a big smile on my face listening to this. So great to hear from Lindsay again and I’m glad to hear she’s ok
Lindsay in her reputation era
So happy to hear Lindsay again
Woooo! Lindsay! We missed you. Guess I gotta get nebula now.
Always good to hear from Lindsay. We miss you.
Love Lindsay Ellis and still watch her videos regularly. Glad to hear from her again.
Man it was nice to hear from Lindsay again, glad that she's doing well. Hey, since she didn't plug Axiom's End, I'm going to. I thought it was pretty great, a compelling action sci fi with aliens that you could care about while still seeming entirely non-human. Consider checking it out!
Sry Dave, I see most comments here are about Lindsay, and this is another one. Great to see Lindsay's name in my youtube recommendations again, and still very much hoping that she can find a way to live with/make peace with/totally fking ignore/open up a gateway and send directly to hell, the army of toxic twitter shitbags who harassed & abused her for no reason, and one day come back and continue making the excellent content that defined an amazing an unique career. I always say - anyone who can keep me fascinated by an nearly hour long essay on fking musical theater has a rare talent for narrative & presentation. Take care Lindsay.
Looking forward to new content from her on Nebula. Watch her backlog often for thoughtful analysis and humor
Good to hear Lindsay is doing well.
The thing with Twitter is so many artists have to use social media for their work. They can't just leave. Lindsay should know this since she has an assistant running her social media for her book, but...like. Artists and writers alike can't get their work seen without the likes of Twitter or similar. That's where a large genuine panic is.
I know for me any comments about her doing ok was just wishing her well on moving from how public she'd been before and all that. However, I fully appreciate her feedback that being completely inundated by variances and intense 'i miss her i hope she is ok' does end up being what she described. It's one thing to be the commenter and it's another thing to be the one who the comments are directed to even if that are positive. The internet can be a deluge, even if it's trying to be positive.
Always great to hear Linsay's voice, and also how wonderful to hear people with disagreement that can have civil dialogue. This is what the internet should be.
Thanks for this
I'm glad she's doing well!!!
I'm getting Truth of the Devine for Christmas, loved the first book
Does Lindsay mention in this podcast if she's still working on the Axiom's End series? I don't have the hour free to listen for a while probably, and I'm personally invested in the answer to that.
She's still working on it, yeah!
Not to take anything away from the successful nebula exclusive but another big reason for the success is undoubtedly due to it being on LOTR. I fucking love paratext (reviews/analysis) on LOTR.
Writing and not releasing video essays is the best kind of art.
Reminds me of John Danielle talking about how he thinks the perfect record is something recorded, mastered and the never released.
It's really sad the way the internet works.
26:00
'The going after a target you can take, over 'the actual enemy' '
yup.
That's not an exploitable human trait at all.
Thanks
Absolutely wild that the other NDA videos are sitting at under 500 views, even the Wendover productions and Anita sarkeesian ones. But then there's this one. Almost at 40k.
Thanks for making me aware that there is a Wendover one!
What happened to Lindsay Ellis is one of the most disheartening things I've ever seen.
11:20 i miss lindsay because she uses the word myriad correctly in conversation 😢
Lindsay Ellis did a LOTR video? This is literally the one thing that is going to make me buy nebula
I needed Lindsey! I miss her voice so much
I just hope Lindsay is feeling a little happier, feeling ok.
Joking aside, I did join Nebula just for Lindsay's video essays. Totally worth. Best video-essayist out there.
It's great to hear from Lindsay but at the same time it's sad that the whole cancelling affair is still so present in the way she is viewed. When it's about someone actually doing reprehensible things I get it but here it's just petty nonsense and hopefully it'll just be in the past for her eventually. That being said I understand why it's still a topic in conversation now. The last "interaction" the audience had with her was her RUclips retirement so in online terms it all happened yesterday.
THABKYOU
It’s so nice to hear Lindsay again
If Lindsay's reading this: Loved the second book!
Gonna throw in a weird perspective - I'm ALSO someone who reads literally every tweet in his timeline and I'll tell you the secret. When you're not a brand, when you're just someone using twitter you can totally just follow your friends and then maybe a few creators. After 15+ years on twitter I'm following under 100 people and most of them aren't brands looking to promote stuff. They're friends form ye olde forum days. I'm off Twitter now, but it never really got terribly bad for me personally because I was using it "the wrong way."
OK but we were promised an argument.
the return of the queen
what a brilliant mind. may she only prosper ❤️
im going to cry i miss her. the old vids are nothing without the hope of new real vids
"It can't be worse"
Star Wars fan in corner grabs popcorn
As much as I loved "Raya and the Last Dragon" for what it was, Lindsay being cancelled over it was too much and the way she was treated by everyone was too toxic. The people on the left who think are righteous gave the other reactionary side ammo to say "LINDSAY THE QUEEN OF WOKE GETS EATEN BY HER OWN AUDIENCE SHE WENT WOKE AND NOW SHE BROKE" that just made Lindsay look worse and I agree with her that the reaction was because she was a woman with an opinion on the internet. People have proved that many had made similar takes about the film and no one batted an eyes. I admit I don't always agree with Lindsay's takes, but I wouldn't go as far as to ruin her life or harass her because at the end of the day her opinion won't affect my life.
That was so frustrating, Lindsay Ellis got canceled, but not Honest Trailers? When she made that “Last Airbender redux” comment I immediately thought of Children of Blood and Bone, which is certainly not set in an Asian fantasy universe but has similar themes
"I can't be Dolly Parton about this," is such an identifiable statement.
Maybe i should get nebula already
Yeah get on that
maybe I'll ask for a nebula sub for christmas or something
well im staying on twitter for two reasons 1)I have a lot of friends there 2) im addicted.
I want her to return to RUclips so bad 😭
Love you Lindsay x
Oh lord. I missed her.
