It’s great to hear therapy has helped and of course you won’t be as emotionally vulnerable as you were - so it’s great you’re not falling to pieces - something we should all be celebrating. Do what makes you happy!
I am a die hard Renegade but I don’t expect anything from you except to enjoy good music. I followed you since Hi Ren & I laughed & cried with you. I enjoy live podcasts, or reacting with a guest, or going back & re-reacting to your best reactions…etc. Just be you.
The best reactions are the ones where the reactor is actually interested in the content and not just going through the motions of reacting to something due to viewers' demands so I'm looking forward to seeing how you grow and evolve this channel.
So happy to hear you speak on what makes JP McFly happy 😊 I will always watch you grow and learn from you! I think back to your first reaction to Hi Ren which led us both on a wild journey and helped us with self-reflection! I will always be grateful to Ren for opening the door to my self discovery and self acceptance! Thank you for expressing your thoughts and feelings on here❤
better must come. Until then, im just grateful that Ren does what he does in the way he does. I was there when you first started doing Ren reactions and your authenticity and your outlook are both tremendous. I'm still here and still a fan!
@@mcflyjpRight on man! Just stay true to you and keep on keeping on. It sounds cliche AF, but I'm glad stuff has been clicking. If you've never read it, check out The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski. It's a short poem but it says it all.
I remember your Hi Rwn reaction and how touched I was by your reaction. You must, of course do what makes you happy in whatever way is necessary. Love you brother.
Good morning you beautiful soul’ Holy crap I am a passionate RENegade, but more than that, I’m passionate about REN having an emotional effect on others, becasue this man changed my world, and I truly believe that if you have done a deep dive, more than 5 REN songs, you wil be affected(damnit, I’m struggling with affect and effect. Just saying lol. But becasue im so comfortable with myself now because of REN and you best reactors,) and I die to watch others having their lived changed also. From the first time REN told me that, “we are all just human beings,” I began to realize that I am great. My artwork is equal to anyone’s and all I need to do is put my all, into my passions, and the universe will let everything work out. I can’t describe what has happened to me, becasue if REN. I watch reactions every day and I don’t think that will ever change. I’m 18 months in, and feel like I’m just getting started But, the best part, I finally know I am not alone. I just found you, and your passion and genuinity was exactly what I needed today. I don’t know how I haven’t seen your stuff but I will be hot boxing all of your stuff, starting now, starting with your Hi REN. I know what I am going to get, and I know what I need. Thank you for taking this journey with me. I can’t wait to go through them all with you! Thank you! Let’s go! 😊
I’m so glad you’re still chipping away at the ol’ block. Keep doing you, however you feel like doing it. The #Renegade community fell for you hard and fast, and we’re still here in your corner. Stay strong, young man 💪
For me, it's kinda hard watching new or small reaction channels when a wave of renegades come on board and they start trying to please the commenters. It's just not possible, because there isn't actually a hive mind, it's loads of people with different opinions and preferences. I'd never tell a reactor they aren't emotional or sad enough, but apparently some folks do? I think most viewers prefer reactors do things true to themselves. I feel you've been a wonderful role model in recognizing your needs and tending to them, prioritizing your family, being honest with your community. Always wish you the best!
You’re saying what I’m thinking. All too often I see reactors, apologizing and defending themselves because of the critiques they get from renegades it’s not a Renegade-like thing to do
You are totally right too look after your self first bro! You do what ever makes you happy. It’s a lot of pressure doing reactions and making people happy every reaction! I appreciate your honesty i watch your videos only when you do Ren and that was from Hi Ren when you first started. I’ve wanted to have a RUclips channel when RUclips first started but never have so I appreciate all of the RUclips reactors. As a creative person since I was a child this has brought a lot of over thinking and pressure and mental illness all through my life. I’ve learnt too take time out of the daily grind and do things that I enjoy. You do what ever makes you happier all the best bro!
Great to know you've found healing space. I don't often comment on reactions, mostly I subscribe and like (because I'm usually watching on my TV and have to open my phone to comment). I've always been a fairly balanced person and as such, have learned to accept, without too much judgement, others' responses to the world around us. Those easily triggered emotionally react almost unthinkingly (like a light trigger); I'm speculating but perhaps that becomes like a "fix" and they subconsciously seek out that show of emotion and feel a little empty when it's absent because you've learned to balance your inner self. My dad taught me early on that the only person I can control is myself, which has stood me in good stead all my life (especially when driving, lol). Thank you for your reactions which, I confess, have all been to Ren; at 71 I've experienced a lot of music and genres - Ren has reopened for me the beauty of music other than classical (Liszt etc), my other love.
I like laughing with you so I would definitely watch more Ted Lasso reactions. I’d also watch tv and film reactions, especially comedy. And the hangout streams are fun too. I’m sorry YT is so much trouble. Seems like it has gotten worse this year with their restrictions. ✌🏻💜
I’m a 55 year old dude and I fucking love Ren like a son. When I watched his “16 bar challenge” (it’s only 60 seconds long), I just wanted to hug him for being so adorable and cute!
Yo, You do not have to explain what you are going to do and how you are going to feel. Cry! be proud it is NOT weak! We are all human and have felt deep emotions or anger or giggly! Do what's in your heart always. I think broadening your scoop is great idea! Be YOU!
Maybe you will get emotional because of your joy over something? But I do not expect reactors to cry only to be themselfs. Please keep on going to heal! Do what is good for you.
Never sell ya soul 😝 you gotta do what brings you joy.. Thanks for sharing you thoughts.. Just keep being you don't change for anyone else but yourself ❤✌️ take care x
great video dude!! do what you feel comfortable with, youve built up a community where we are all able to share our views, where we found you from someone (ren) that we all appreciate (we have more in common than what divides us...) and thats great!!
I couldnt imagine being upset that someone is doing better and in doing doesn’t get Uber emotional over a song. Music heals,music helps and growth is amazing. I’m late to the ren train and only found him in July, and your channel is one of the only I have watched EVERY. SINGLE. Ren reaction, because I just love your authenticity. I am Ssoooo glad you are doing better and I absolutely miss your videos when you don’t post, but I get it we all have lives. Hopefully yt stops the bs and lets it be less stress on you again. You have an amazing heart (from what I can see through your videos) like ren said in Money Ties “Keep that kind heart kind, humankind are in need Never ever let this world make you bitter like me Because this world needs love, and love it leaks from you, see?” “this world needs light and you're the brightest I see" Ok I’ll end my tired rant here 😅 (almost 2 am and running on 5hrs of sleep in the last 48)
You've grown so much as a human since Ren first helped me find your videos. Now you need to make sure that you're doing things here that bring you joy, or healing, or that make you excited to share them with us. Yt make that so difficult and I wish it didn't. Look after yourself in whatever way is best for you. ❤
I'm glad the Ren experience really benefited you. I've watched a lot of Ren reactions and I've often thought that it's not fair to the reactor to see that particular art in front of an audience. It can be deeply personal and triggering, and it takes time to truly process what you've seen. I'm not sure that should happen with an audience. At a minimum, nobody should feel obligated to post that content, or any content for that matter. You do you. It's amazing that you're learning who that is and what that looks like. ❤
Appreciate your insights JP. I think YT is at the stage where it doesn't really care about independent content creators and small accounts and it's now a lapdog to it's big corporation paymasters. It's a shame that someone couldn't come up with a viable alternative on which all small independents, reactors and content creators could all come together and be better thought of (I know there are some alternatives but the ones I've seen are clunky to use and have limited content). I only watch YT for artists like Ren and other smaller, mainly independent artists (and the reactors to these artists) so I wouldn't actually miss YT at all if all these could be found somewhere else. Ren changed my life, as it sounds like it did yours, and many other peoples - not just for his music, but for his outlook on life and for his positivity in the face of adversity. I've been in some dark places these last 2 or 3 years, but Ren's music and positivity (plus that of the reactors and renegades) has definitely helped me out, and even encouraged me to go to my first music festival in 30 years a couple of months ago (Ren at SGP, obviously!). Hopefully, the next month or two of weekly and fortnightly drops by Ren, in the lead up to his new album release, will give you some more of those highs (whether you react to them or not)!
When you get on an airplane, and the flight attendant goes through the safety speech, they tell you to put the O2 mask on yourself, first. You have to be sure to take care of yourself, to be able to help those who also need care. The way I see it, you do what you need to do for yourself, and when you've lifted yourself up, you can keep on lifting up those around you, as well as everyone who enjoys your content. I haven't seen your videos before this, as far as I know, but I appreciate what you had to say. It's one thing to just sit and watch people doing sh*t on camera, but it's an entirely different thing when the creator can actually connect with the viewer. LOL I'm 57 and was raised on network television. Sit-coms, game shows, cop shows, doctor shows, etc.. .... lmao... all a bunch of bullsh*t! "Reality" television?!?! ... Nah. F that. Real people. Real emotions. Real dialogue. Real relatability, connection and understanding, between real people. Those are the things that channels like yours, provide to those of us looking for that kind of thing, whether we know it or not. Your audience will find you. You've got this! Cheers! 👍
Well done to you for 1 - for allowing yourself to be vulnerable 2 - for looking after your mental health & 3 for being so open & honest 🤍 Stay true & look after you 🩷 I adore #ren & love your reactions
@McFly JP I'd love love to see you do true crime reactions, sarah boones case is starting now and it's wild! She zipped her man in a suitcase apparently playing hide and seek a d was so drunk she fell asleep and left him in the suitcase all night. He passed away - she went to jail, went through like 9 lawyers bc no one could stand her, she got caught stealing 87 pieces of cheese from the jail, just hilarious- you would be amazing on this ❤❤❤
Hey McFly, not been around much been ill, just dropped by to say hello. This was a nice explanation video of where you are at with your channel. I am so glad you are in a better mental health space these days and glad you did what you needed to in order to get your life into a more balanced place, believe me it shows. You are looking much more on top of things now. I have watched your channel grow and enjoyed coming along on part of that journey with you. Anyway, you asked what we like from your channel content. My honest answer is i’m here for you as a person because you are a great guy, you are truly relatable, honest in your reactions and seek real dialogue with your audience. You are not the type of reactor to cover tracks just because they are the latest thing or they’re popular; and you are certainly not the type of reactor who fakes liking something just for the sake of it. Plus, if you don’t like something you’ll find a positive spin where you can. Personally, I pass on from the types of creators who fake their love of things very quickly, because I hate fakes! Anyway, content wise, for me it’s the music reactions I love. I’m personally not that into TV program or comedy reactions myself. I joined your channel because you were reacting to Ren and stayed because I liked your music reactions in general. I have to say I prefer how you used to do a dedicated post for each music reaction, rather than the live streams you have been doing. This is because I don’t like to commit to long live streams most of the time, so don’t tend to watch any content creators live streaming very often, unless it is a concert, or dedicated live performance gig. I have to say I like your computer channel and subbed because that content is good. Although, I’ve been cutting back my YT watch time as I was finding it stressful to keep up with the number of channels I’m subbed to these days. When I watch, I try to Share the love between them as much as I can. Ultimately, I think you need to do what makes you happy McFly, if you are putting out engaging, fun and informative content and being genuine in your reactions and interactions then you’ll grow your audience. Not everything will be right for me, but it might be for others. You have to be happy with what you are doing, so as the saying goes “you do you”. If it’s my thing too I’ll watch! I’ll always check in from time to time anyway just to see how you are. Sending love and hugs to you and your family. 💛🤗
Hey Beth! Most of the live streams for the most part are to give people the option to put in requests for me to react to. With or without them, my content is essentially the same. For instance, I have 3 or 4 video I want to do, I don't do them in those love streams. I appreciate you being in all my videos and always supporting. It really means a lot.
Completely right! Criticizing your emotional response is outragous. It always gets easier the more you talk about it, experience those triggers, etc. THAT IS LITERALLY THE PURPOSE OF THERAPY. That means it's working.
Good morning you beautiful soul’ Holy crap I am a passionate RENegade, but more than that, I’m passionate about REN having an emotional effect on others, becasue this man changed my world, and I truly believe that if you have done a deep dive, more than 5 REN songs, you wil be affected(damnit, I’m struggling with affect and effect. Just saying lol. But becasue im so comfortable with myself now because of REN and you best reactors,) and I die to watch others having their lived changed aldo
A little suggestion. If you maybe try focusing on more independent artists similar to Ren's situation, you might face less of an uphill struggle. Many of them are grateful of reactors helping push their work, which you'll probably have noticed. So ppl like Knox, Chinchilla, Sam Tomkins, Viktus, some other artists you've seen independent artists collab with, then you'll probably face less things pushing you back the way. I don't mean exclusively, because I know some of the more main stream stuff will help your channel grow more, but you'll kinda know who you've had issues with, so who's best to avoid... There's an independent bunch of lads called 'The Skinner Brothers' from the UK, and I can guarantee they show love to reactors who help push their stuff. Ren pushed his Renegades their way, so they're Ren endorsed if that helps? A lot of their stuff is different from the norm, and it's insane they haven't blew up yet. Only a few reactors have covered their stuff, I'd love & appreciate if you added yourself to that list... I genuinely think you'll love them. If possible, and you do decide to give them a try, could you put 'Mississippi Mud Pie Blues' near the top of your list please?
Outside of Linkin Park and One Eminem doing I did, I've only done Independent artists. I've done Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, the Big Push. But I am always down to do more of them.
I’m glad to see you feeling good. We’re all supposed to grow and learn and move forward. I keep hearing reactors apologize, and defend themselves to Ren fans. It’s disappointing to see. It seems rude , ungrateful and not very Ren-like. I’m a 68 year old Ren fan. He’s helped me be a better person and have a better life. If Ren was at church, I’d be there every Sunday.😂. i love your reactions. I love seeing you evolving. It’s what we are supposed to do. It keeps us moving forward. Also, I’m down for wolverine and Deadpool. ❤
I have to say that it kinda is for attention, but not for your typical reasons. The topics and subjects that Ren touches on DEARLY NEED attention!!! Whether the forces that be want to admit it or not, these topics touch the majority of society. I know I can't speak for everyone, however, I think that us Renegades finally feel seen and understood....and Rens approach is perfection. He's our mastermind, our Einstein. His rapid growth is a testament to this. He has managed to bring together secluded souls that felt forgotten that were hiding in the shadows and gave us purpose and hope with just an extended hand. He's put words to real feelings and real situations that we're told are taboo and gaslit to the point of questioning our own sanity. So when we see other people/creators having visceral reactions we latch on to that, and are very protective of it. Every one of them are a hug that we've missed out on somewhere/ sometime in life. So yeah, it kinda is for attention...attention that this world needs it's eyes on. Thank you for covering this....much love to all my fellow Renegade brothers and sisters❣️🥰❣️🥰
I reckon you should do what makes you Happy, so why not do some comedy, British comedy is the best in the world, due to us all having a dark sense of Humour, Try some Ricky Gervais or Jimmy Carr, they should trigger a few , all the best to you bro.
pleased that you're mental health is improving, your reactions at the time were genuine for who you were then. If you're feeling more upbeat, let your channel reflect that. I couldn't think of anything worse than someone faking it. If you do keep posting, please do something about your camera stability, since you went to standing up, it's not good to watch.
It’s very strange how the tube works. Or doesn’t work. Do what you want with your channel. You don’t need our blessing 😊. It is very nice of you to ask, though. Do you know that Ren is dropping a new tune in a few hours, called Money Ties ?
criticism should be constructive. Just demeaning people is never a productive way to be. You will notice within the renegade community is motivational and constructive. Only good things come from constructive thinking.

It’s great to hear therapy has helped and of course you won’t be as emotionally vulnerable as you were - so it’s great you’re not falling to pieces - something we should all be celebrating. Do what makes you happy!
I think Ren effects everyone who finds his music. Thank you for sharing yourself with the world.
Your transparency is a blessing, still enjoying your videos.
Thank you so much!

Cheers! 👍
Thank you so much! The community has been great and they have always helped lift each other up. It's why I love doing this.
Well done to you for 1 - for allowing yourself to be vulnerable 2 - for looking after your mental health & 3 for being so open & honest 🤍
Stay true & look after you 🩷
I adore #ren & love your reactions
@McFly JP I'd love love to see you do true crime reactions, sarah boones case is starting now and it's wild! She zipped her man in a suitcase apparently playing hide and seek a d was so drunk she fell asleep and left him in the suitcase all night. He passed away - she went to jail, went through like 9 lawyers bc no one could stand her, she got caught stealing 87 pieces of cheese from the jail, just hilarious- you would be amazing on this ❤❤❤
Lol wtf is that case! Where can I watch this?
❤❤❤
Thank you for this.
I'm so glad you're prioritizing your own well-being! That's huge, and my heart is happy for you 🙂
Hey McFly, not been around much been ill, just dropped by to say hello. This was a nice explanation video of where you are at with your channel. I am so glad you are in a better mental health space these days and glad you did what you needed to in order to get your life into a more balanced place, believe me it shows. You are looking much more on top of things now. I have watched your channel grow and enjoyed coming along on part of that journey with you.
Anyway, you asked what we like from your channel content. My honest answer is i’m here for you as a person because you are a great guy, you are truly relatable, honest in your reactions and seek real dialogue with your audience. You are not the type of reactor to cover tracks just because they are the latest thing or they’re popular; and you are certainly not the type of reactor who fakes liking something just for the sake of it. Plus, if you don’t like something you’ll find a positive spin where you can. Personally, I pass on from the types of creators who fake their love of things very quickly, because I hate fakes! Anyway, content wise, for me it’s the music reactions I love. I’m personally not that into TV program or comedy reactions myself. I joined your channel because you were reacting to Ren and stayed because I liked your music reactions in general. I have to say I prefer how you used to do a dedicated post for each music reaction, rather than the live streams you have been doing. This is because I don’t like to commit to long live streams most of the time, so don’t tend to watch any content creators live streaming very often, unless it is a concert, or dedicated live performance gig. I have to say I like your computer channel and subbed because that content is good. Although, I’ve been cutting back my YT watch time as I was finding it stressful to keep up with the number of channels I’m subbed to these days. When I watch, I try to Share the love between them as much as I can. Ultimately, I think you need to do what makes you happy McFly, if you are putting out engaging, fun and informative content and being genuine in your reactions and interactions then you’ll grow your audience. Not everything will be right for me, but it might be for others. You have to be happy with what you are doing, so as the saying goes “you do you”. If it’s my thing too I’ll watch! I’ll always check in from time to time anyway just to see how you are. Sending love and hugs to you and your family. 💛🤗
Hey Beth! Most of the live streams for the most part are to give people the option to put in requests for me to react to. With or without them, my content is essentially the same. For instance, I have 3 or 4 video I want to do, I don't do them in those love streams.
I appreciate you being in all my videos and always supporting. It really means a lot.
I would love to see you reacting to other things!

Completely right! Criticizing your emotional response is outragous. It always gets easier the more you talk about it, experience those triggers, etc. THAT IS LITERALLY THE PURPOSE OF THERAPY. That means it's working.
Good morning you beautiful soul’
Holy crap
I am a passionate RENegade, but more than that, I’m passionate about REN having an emotional effect on others, becasue this man changed my world, and I truly believe that if you have done a deep dive, more than 5 REN songs, you wil be affected(damnit, I’m struggling with affect and effect. Just saying lol. But becasue im so comfortable with myself now because of REN and you best reactors,) and I die to watch others having their lived changed aldo
A little suggestion. If you maybe try focusing on more independent artists similar to Ren's situation, you might face less of an uphill struggle. Many of them are grateful of reactors helping push their work, which you'll probably have noticed. So ppl like Knox, Chinchilla, Sam Tomkins, Viktus, some other artists you've seen independent artists collab with, then you'll probably face less things pushing you back the way. I don't mean exclusively, because I know some of the more main stream stuff will help your channel grow more, but you'll kinda know who you've had issues with, so who's best to avoid...
There's an independent bunch of lads called 'The Skinner Brothers' from the UK, and I can guarantee they show love to reactors who help push their stuff. Ren pushed his Renegades their way, so they're Ren endorsed if that helps? A lot of their stuff is different from the norm, and it's insane they haven't blew up yet. Only a few reactors have covered their stuff, I'd love & appreciate if you added yourself to that list... I genuinely think you'll love them. If possible, and you do decide to give them a try, could you put 'Mississippi Mud Pie Blues' near the top of your list please?
Outside of Linkin Park and One Eminem doing I did, I've only done Independent artists. I've done Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, the Big Push. But I am always down to do more of them.
I’m glad to see you feeling good. We’re all supposed to grow and learn and move forward. I keep hearing reactors apologize, and defend themselves to Ren fans. It’s disappointing to see. It seems rude , ungrateful and not very Ren-like. I’m a 68 year old Ren fan. He’s helped me be a better person and have a better life. If Ren was at church, I’d be there every Sunday.😂. i love your reactions. I love seeing you evolving. It’s what we are supposed to do. It keeps us moving forward. Also, I’m down for wolverine and Deadpool. ❤
I have to say that it kinda is for attention, but not for your typical reasons. The topics and subjects that Ren touches on DEARLY NEED attention!!! Whether the forces that be want to admit it or not, these topics touch the majority of society. I know I can't speak for everyone, however, I think that us Renegades finally feel seen and understood....and Rens approach is perfection. He's our mastermind, our Einstein. His rapid growth is a testament to this. He has managed to bring together secluded souls that felt forgotten that were hiding in the shadows and gave us purpose and hope with just an extended hand. He's put words to real feelings and real situations that we're told are taboo and gaslit to the point of questioning our own sanity. So when we see other people/creators having visceral reactions we latch on to that, and are very protective of it. Every one of them are a hug that we've missed out on somewhere/ sometime in life. So yeah, it kinda is for attention...attention that this world needs it's eyes on. Thank you for covering this....much love to all my fellow Renegade brothers and sisters❣️🥰❣️🥰
I reckon you should do what makes you Happy, so why not do some comedy, British comedy is the best in the world, due to us all having a dark sense of Humour, Try some Ricky Gervais or Jimmy Carr, they should trigger a few , all the best to you bro.
86% .. you forgot to count me
❤🫂♥️
pleased that you're mental health is improving, your reactions at the time were genuine for who you were then.
If you're feeling more upbeat, let your channel reflect that.
I couldn't think of anything worse than someone faking it.
If you do keep posting, please do something about your camera stability, since you went to standing up, it's not good to watch.
It’s very strange how the tube works. Or doesn’t work.
Do what you want with your channel. You don’t need our blessing 😊. It is very nice of you to ask, though.
Do you know that Ren is dropping a new tune in a few hours, called Money Ties ?
I did not! I will make sure to get that reaction up soon as possible!
criticism should be constructive. Just demeaning people is never a productive way to be. You will notice within the renegade community is motivational and constructive. Only good things come from constructive thinking.
