Bro, I wish I was as 'broke' as he claims to be! I haven't seen more than $1200 at one time in my life, and that's just when I get my fixed monthly income that I then have to budget $1400/mo in bare minimum expenses! And I would kill to have a tub like that & would use it every day!
He didn't even care enough to have Amazon pick up his unneeded sound bar to get $100 back! 🙄
I totally feel you. 100% truth. I could live for years off that one box of cards he brought to the shop. Of course, I'd auction them online instead of getting ripped at the game store, but still. Anyone without the spending habits of a careless loon would do better than okay in his shoes.
I feel like this documentary kind of glossed over his biggest problem. His lack of money isn't because he spent so much money on prostitutes or collectibles. It's that he irresponsibly invested way too much money in crypto and lost pretty much all of it. He had enough money to live comfortably even if he retired from youtube. But he pissed it all away in a terrible investment. They mention it quickly at the start and never touch on it again. Instead focusing on all his collectibles and all the prostitutes he bought.
Boogie isn't a victim of the youtube algorithm or anything like that. He's someone who made a mistake and has never been able to accept that it was his fault, so he blames everyone else for it.
No his real mystake is making bad videos. If he was just a good youtuber he would earn more than enough again.
This sad sack routine of Boogie's is draining, man. What a miserable person to be around. I know someone in my personal life who acts like this a lot, with this self-sabotaging mentality. You try to have patience and sympathy, but at some point you reach your limit and realize they're going to pull you down into misery with them if you let them. Talking to a person like this will ruin your day. It's damn near vampiric.
Boogie the emotional vampire
@@ConsciusVeritasVids(vulnerable narcissism - emotional vampires)
He lists off his diagnoses like they're a freaking list of achievements. Dude is so insanely stuck in self-pitty mode, it's ridiculous. He _says_ enjoy what you got, but he seems to be trying to "enjoy" the negatives.
EDIT: Oh god that girl. She needs to grow up, because if all she wants is to not be alone, she could not be alone with WAY better partners... In like, every way.
EDIT2: Eh, the mushies trip 'could' be real and they just picked really odd statements to try and string the trip together. If you do a crapload of them, they can definitely reset your outlook for a time. Boogie doesn't seem like the brightest, so those straight forward statements 'could' be legit: He clearly doesn't introspect in the self-analytical way normally.
And some of them are just like "Vitamin D deficiency" which like basically everyone north of Oklahoma has to deal with, "allergies" which I've never met anyone who doesnt have at least one, and at least one of his dramatically listed medications just stuck out to me as being the drug I hear everyone with anxiety seems to mention taking including me, Bupropion. Like settle down the pitty party my man, get some therapy
Didn’t he also run with the gamergater/skeptic crowd back around 2016-2017 and kinda implode with the rest of them like Sargon?
Yes. He was also the guy who was both sidesing Nazis all the time. He's the original Enlightened Centrist
@@SAVarXXI used to say that he’s the guy who’s picture should appear in the dictionary next to the definition of “enlightened centrist.”
I lost it when Jake started screeching like the Chamberlain from Dark Crystal 😂
😂
Listen, I am black, I do enjoy the occasional race joke, I think they can be funny. There's nothing funny about just saying the N word and there's nothing funny about SA, like wtf is wrong with this dude?
I don't have as much of a problem with the self-sabotaging stuff as some do. Depression can do that. You can be lost in doing all the wrong things for yourself because well, you're mentally unhealthy. You're not making the right decisions. My issue with him is stuff like the objectifying way he talked about women. I have no issue with sex work or wanting beautiful women, but just the way he frames it is dehumanizing. It's the kind of person he is, not necessarily his diagnoses or mood I have an issue with.
I've never been high, but I've heard that hallucinogens can be a good way to like introspect and learn about yourself in some cases, but I don't think going into it with someone who sees it as some metaphysical thing is the best idea. It can be an interesting like extra supplement/experiment, but like it's not therapy on it's own and should absolutely not be treated as such.
Building your expectations up like he did probably doesn't help either. My first LSD trip definitely changed my mindset in a big way, but I didn't come out as a completely new person, and it took a while to fully grasp the scope of it. Years even, in some aspects. Seeing the bigger picture takes a lot of distance and reflection. I also didn't hope for any of it, I just wanted to see some cool hallucinations. Maybe with the right guide I would've gotten more out of it, but still, you gotta give it time and let it do its own thing without aiming for a specific outcome. That's hard to do if you're already thinking "This could finally heal me from my trauma."
@@fiercerodent ye that's never a good way to think about it. It's never gonna be that quick and easy. I feel like it really got pretty well summed up when he was talking about his health issues related to his weight he said the doctor was like "you've had a bypass surgery, you've lost 200 pounds what do you want me to do?" and he said he was like "I want you to fix it, but then they're telling me I have to fix it." I feel like it's a safe assumption that by them telling him he needs to fix it, they probably told him he needs to like make a lifestyle change to work towards a healthy weight and like yeah that takes time and that sucks but it's how you fix that. It does really seem like with a lot of his issues he just thinks like there's a way to just fix it all like a flip of a switch but he just can't quite find it, even though the ways to fix things have been shown to him at like every turn and he just like avoids them cuz they aren't easy
Hallucinogens make you approach things you normally think about in a different way. But they do not fundamentally make you better. There are a lot right wingers that actually got radicalized further into fascism by their trip for example. They just make you introspect on what is already there, and when whats there is bad, then its just going to become worse.
@@nehriim3748 Right ye, it make you think but like doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna be a productive think
@@RawketSushi Pretty much.
Its odd because they want me to feel sorry for him yet I dont.

Hey remember when Boogie blamed Charlottesville on Anita Sarkeesian?
This is so pathetic. He ruined it for himself. I feel a little sympathetic but he should have gotten the help he needed a long time ago.
If you need help about the sympathy feeling, he blamed Anita Sarkeesian for Charlottesville and was still arguing against Gay Marriage in 2018.
@@SAVarXX Jesus fucking yikes Christ. Okay he's worse than I thought.
Why would anyone buy crypto?
Im sure this is rhetorical but It's just a form of gambling and it was in the peak he bought it when ftx was running ads everywhere. Point is boogie would have bought lottery tickets if it wasn't crypto. Gambling addiction to fill his time.
@@jordand5555sounds like he leads a very shallow and sad life. Be better off spending money on therapy.
this psycedelic angle was weird cause i swear like a few years ago pre 2020 a group of youtubers including mcjuggernuggests were with boogie and he did dmt and said that moment changed his live or something. that wasnt mentioned once in this documentary at all but that is 100% a thing and i remember boogie doing a story time about it or something. can anyone back me up ?
it's hilarious how xan was defending this guy and wingsofredemption and saying the trolls are the problem, and then this doc comes out and EVERYONE is just shitting on boogie (as he deserves). what a great timeline to be in
any concept that x may have contributed to y?
@@redearth55 not sure what you're suggesting. they have trolls because they are awful, terrible people. they constantly manipulate with self-pity and gaslighting and xan fell for it. when all you see is some clips of people trolling them, it's easy to take their side. when you actually look into it and see that they're both horrific people that have done terrible things, and they work every day to suppress that information, it's easier to acknowledge that they suck and deserve everything.
@@carcosa_tyrant9444 suggesting it's possible people like him became like that likely due to bullying and trolls exacerbated it
@@redearth55 but that doesn't excuse the fact that both of those people have been given countless opportunities and ridiculous amounts of generosity and they still just screw over anyone that helps them and squander every opportunity. lots of people were bullied, and lots of people manage to make something of themselves regardless. wings and boogie have had more second chances than anyone i've ever seen and fucked up every single one.
People really enjoyed the kind, sensible facade that boogie desperately tried to put on in his videos in the past. And so did he. At this point that seems so far away, and he just can't escape from being a shitty person. Those better be good mushrooms
He blamed Charlottesville on Anita Sarkeesian.
@@SAVarXX lol yeah, he's always been shitty but he definitely was more in denial about it in the 2010s
I hate that I bought into his nice guy persona for so long. I watched a few of his WoW and 'Francis' videos but I didn't keep track of him a whole lot outside of that; he was just "the nice dude who made goofy videos". I almost got whiplash when I learned he's actually a shitty person (wasn't that long ago either; maybe like 2017).
I bet he thinks all those sex workers actually like him and think that they are his girlfriends.
Didn’t watch that yet cause I feel like I’ve already watched a _Down the Rabbit Hole_ or something on him. 19:50, oooooh ouch, the buylist price for a City of Traitors is like $230 online.
1:02:39
"Is that your tenth aniversary?" would have been the joke here.
I for one love seeing more and more online weirdos be open about their humiliation fetishes, really clears the air on where people are coming from.
If he was too lazy to cook for himself, the least he could have done was just do something like Factor 75 so that he'll have healthy food already prepped for him ready to go. He really should have just paid off the house ASAP so all he had to worry about was utilities & taxes.
i remember when he had a mental breakdown on ur stream
Didn't know they ever had a stern together
I felt like that when i took mushrooms for the first time,but i fell back into my ahitty habbits a week later. Therapy helped in the long run.
I just scrubbed through to see the reaction of dating a 20 year old, it's so much worse the second time because the novelty of the situation is gone, my brain is just able to process what's on the screen and what I'm hearing.
Especially the quasi "Brag" about father issues. Good to see Boogie hasnt changed at all since his days of Blaming Anita Sarkeesian for the Charlottesville Nazi Rally and saying we need to stop focusing on gay marriage so much.
Therapy and some self-discipliner to lower weight: Nope
Taking drugs with a local shaman in the middle of fuck-knows-where: Yes
This whole documentary *feels* like satire but it's not
When they were walking it looked like a dad and daughter walking in the park
Rule of thumb, dont steal money from poeple you respect, that is your choice
That video is strange when it comes to timelines. Isn't Dez his ex wife from many years ago? He pretty much totally lost his mind after that.
Yes, he is now dating a new woman who is also named Dez. Man's got a type.
@@kendlebeep4396 Wow, okay, that explains my confusion then. Thanks for clearing that up.
He enjoys hurting that girl because he made her dependant on him, and oh, he might die soon. Idgaf that he fucked up his own life, but he's completely intentionally indenturing this poor neglected (def sounds emotionally neglected) girl.
Everyone going on about Boogie and I can't get over the spelling mistakes in the documentary.
A narcissist with learned helplessness. I don't feel bad for him at all.
If Boogie has all those health problems, the house he has is way too big. I don’t even have half the problems he has and MY house is too big, and I’m in a wheelchair.
Bro needs to get his priorities straight.
Edit: Tbh, I had a trip on edibles that kind of helped me a lot. I had a mindset a lot like Boogie, very nihilistic and depressed. After that trip though, it gave me a whole different outlook.
Anti-depressants probably helped too.
Like normally I say it could not have happened to a worse person but like... this is just sad. He broadcast himself as pretty happy and wholesome and I thought _"Man he avoided the dark"_ but no he was part of it in the worst way.
Like I was a gay... escort at seventeen so I went into the darkness real hard. Boogie went from not tripping the wires to just rolling on them... like this is bad. 0/10 do not recommend.
First to the Clum sesh.
What a NUTTY statement.
as many have already said he's actually bojack horseman with less charisma
It's hard to have sympathy for this guy for so many reasons, but his warning about his health to his current girlfriend feels more like him trying to make certain she wants to be with him badly enough rather than it being purely emotionally manipulative. I mean, it's still consequentially abusive behavior to always test someone's care for you, but I don't think that one instance was as intentionally sinister as a lot of people are making it out to be.
HE GOT A BANG MAID!!! FUCKING WHAT? 🤮
this is exactly who i picture when i think of large crypto investments
The healthcare stuff is super shitty and it does suck. I also have debilitating health shit that costs me waaaay too much money. But I get up every day and push to make my life better rather than "waaaah! Poor me!" shit. I'm looking at going on disability in my mid thirties cus my body is just breaking down on me at a rapid pace, and I whine less than this guy.
And even if I do go on full disability I still have plans to keep pushing to make my life dreams come true.
My friend is avoiding going on full disability because she's worried it'll trap her in her mom's deteriorating house without a way to move (her abuser used the police as a means to kick her out of her apt). And she's still pushing through day by day, trying to figure out her life and transportation. I'm still trying to figure out life and may even have a major move to help a family member and I'm not always so, dare I say, bleak all the time. Pessimism happens and then ya gotta make yourself do something else to take your mind off intrusive thoughts. It sucks but you gotta do.
@@bleakautomaton4808 this exactly! Sometimes life gives you a raw deal. But you can't just wallow in self pity or nothing will get better.
@@DarkBangle Granted it took time to get to this point, so it is tough to take yourself out of a bog of spiralling-worst-case-scenarios. You can still get there.
@@bleakautomaton4808 that's true enough. It's not easy to pull yourself out and sometimes you do need help and that is more than okay. So long as you are trying to move forward. It just frustrated me when ppl give up on themselves and refuse help while whining that no one helps them. I *may* have personal experience with such a person in my own family. 😬
@@DarkBangle That's fair.
Nothing wrong with escorts. Its a perfectly normal transaction should be legal everywhere. But the way boogie describes it is definitely wrong😂
...sigh...the attitude and the everything-else is what is sometimes called NEET, but even that would be too harsh to say probably. Also the mysogyny, not new certainly, ffs jeez.
I wish my cup size would shrink to zero around creeps with his attitude on women ("meat market" 🤢) gross.
That "shaman" had me cringing
I had to skip that job interview, too much secondhand cringe 🫣
Maybe your opening paragraph to someone shouldn't contain the words, "I beat my ex-wife."
I absolutely couldn't, I. could. not. trip with someone just standing over me the whole time.
Y ghh B
Sv
the psylocibin bit is super hard to parse cause like i wouldn't put it past someone as manipulative as boogie to put on an act and still be able to white knuckle death grip himself into keeping his guard up while tripping, especially cause of how big he is - not to shame, just like chemically i'm also a big dude, i eat more shrooms than my little brother who's like 2% body fat.
however, i've looked into psychedelic treatments a lot and basically the real medical psychology effect of a psylocibin trip is basically the loss of ability to put true weight into things, to cling on to emotional loads - you can absolutely have a bad trip, but its reactive, in the moment. Boogie is mirroring a lot of 60's and 70's PTSD trials, its actually nuts how immediate and effective it is with the proper questioning. Soldiers really did describe and play out on film their experiences during trips as being directed to think about the horrific shit they'd had nightmares about for years and it just didn't seem like a big deal when presented gently and with reassurance that everything was safe. They were almost immediately able to move past their trauma
then ofc drug companies got it made super illegal.
but boogies next morning act is fake AF so, probably all fake.
