Tyler without his glasses makes me understand how Clark Kent never got clocked as Superman
Right?? I didn’t realise it was him until he spoke!!
I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!
@@Catmum1998looks like an indie rock vocalist 😂
The lack of White hair plays a big part too. His hairstyle is different too.
Omg lm glad Im not the only one 😂 as soon as he spoke, oh shoot that's Tyler! 😅
i have so much gratitude for this, & to be included in this conversation. grace & kassem, thank you both for being so vulnerable, & anthony thank you for being a safe space, you get it. youtube audience... THANK YOU for the kindness & gentleness... if you ever wanna hang, i'd love to reconnect. come say hey & make my day
hi
King 👑❤️🔥
My farts are better than Anthony’s farts.
I loved watching your channel, Tyler! I remember going to the Seattle stop of your Slumber Party tour and meeting you at the meet and greet! Such a fun time with good memories! :)
I LOVE YOU HII
“We were like the first-born children of a dysfunctional family.”
Whew that hit on a personal level
"Hi everyone its Tyler Oakley" I instantly went back to those days in my head of me sitting and watching him with Grace and Mamrie and the British youtubers Zoella and Alfie and Marcus Butler. I consumed hours of of Tyler and also Grace's content. You tube has changed so much from the 2010's.
This is amazing! What a special episode Anthony 🎉

I never consumed Tyler's content bc I didn't relate to him but MAN is he relatable here! I like this real, raw Tyler. I too am an introvert and it's really hard to socialize when we are not social beings, but also starting out before the boom, didn't know it would REQUIRE us to be social beings 🙏
I highly recommend his season of The Amazing Race. He was on my favorite team that year.
"consumed" lol
@Naptural85 Such a pleasant surprise to see you in this comment section 😊 I watched a lot of your videos around the same time I would've watched Kassem G, around 10+ years ago when I quit relaxing my hair. As far as I'm concerned you have a place in this conversation! I also literally just bought some Melanin conditioner 2 days ago so it's cool to see you pop up as I'm scrolling lol.
Peace sis ✌🏾
@@aamir1290 "dumbass" lol
Thank you for your comment. I absolutely agree that Tyler is particularly relatable because he speaks from experience. Introversion can be very difficult and isolating, which is why it's great to see him connecting with his readers in a transparent way. It's interesting to me that people who are starting out in their careers might feel this way, because there is so much pressure to be social. But in fact, being shy and introverted shouldn't stop you from achieving your goals. There are many ways to network and make connections, and the more interesting and genuine you are, the more likely people will be to connect with you. Awn7mFktpB4
I LOVE this. It makes me want to sit in a room full of oLdEr youtubers and talk about our feelings.
I'm sure you could pull a few strings here and there 🤷🏻 maybe do a meme therapy group. Hope you're enjoying retirement.
Imagine if you could get HealthygamerGG to help you all in that process.
The legend has arrived!
ONGGG I LOVED YOU SO MUCH WHEN I WAS YOUNGER GIRL YOUVE IMPACTED ME SO MUCH I HOPE YR DOING WELL❤❤
I’m not a RUclips personality and I feel this too, I think it’s maybe because I’m of a similar age and saw this rise and fall of this kind of content and content creator
Crazy how the classic RUclipsrs subscriber numbers are ‘small’ compared to todays multimillion follower tiktok world, but the communities were so much more tight knit and active.
I always think about this when I look at Dan and Phil numbers. Like, their fan base was an army (both in a good and in a bad way)
100%!!!!!
I remember Ryan Higa was the most subscribed channel with 3 million subs, now many 3 million sub channels go unnoticed
It was a lot more wholesome and just light as well
an OG youtuber interviewing other OG youtubers, this is one of the best episodes Anthony's ever made

Well...
Except for the ian hecox interview
SEEING Anthony, Tyler, and Grace interact together again AFTER ALL THESE YEARS gives me so many feels. I feel like a piece of the golden era of youtube was back.
This was so incredible, although our channel is more from a middle wave starting in 2015, I could relate to every single one of these problems, from identity to anxiety, pressure to keep up and lack of prioritizing self-care. I want to really thank everyone in this video for speaking so honestly and vulnerably while putting words to certain problems I'll admit I hadn't fully vocalized myself. Every person here was someone I looked up to growing up, (for me personally Kassem G was a big one!) dreaming of one day being like them, then once I got here I realized that the experience is more nuanced than I'd thought. Continuing to find joy and fulfillment in the creative process however is what I have accepted as my duty and the "job" part that I have as a creative. Ultimately, the only cure I have found to most of this, is to make sure that the output matches my current state of maturity, even if it means changing and not delivering what the audience expects. Much love for this wild and unpredictable creative journey we are all on!
There's a quote from Zadie Smith I read recently that echoes some of this sentiment: "We want our artists to remain as they were when we first loved them. But our artists want to move. Sometimes the battle becomes so violent that a perversion in the artist can occur: these days, Joni Mitchell thinks of herself more as a painter than a singer. She is so allergic to the expectations of her audience that she would rather be a perfectly nice painter than a singer touched by the sublime. That kind of anxiety about audience is often read as contempt, but Mitchell’s restlessness is only the natural side effect of her artmaking, as it is with Dylan, as it was with Joyce and Picasso. Joni Mitchell doesn’t want to live in my dream, stuck as it is in an eternal 1971…her life has its own time. There is simply not enough time in her life for her to be the Joni of my memory forever. The worst possible thing for an artist is to exist as a feature of somebody else’s epiphany."

I remember watching yes theory back then. It’s amazing how you guys were able to develop that brand and idea while also keeping true to the original message. You guys rock just like the OG’s in this video do
what does og mean?
Great quote.
Thomas ❤
I waited 8 hours to meet Tyler at vidcon one year. It’s crazy to hear him say that because he was so friendly and kind. Meeting him was absolutely amazing even though I waited so long. I never would have thought he was struggling so much.
i just wanted to feel worth the wait, because so much of me didn't think i actually was. great to see you alive & thriving, i hope you're doing well over there. thank you for being so kind to ME back then, i know i needed it!!
I can relate so much to this. It was a really special moment to meet you Tyler and I promise that it felt worth it to us and that you also definitely were worth it to us
@@TylerOakley ur the man!!! thank u for opening up
it’s crazy how anthony is now balancing smosh, all of its side channels, AND his own channel, yet the enthusiasm and passion is STILL apparent in every video he creates.
my farts are better than Anthony’s farts 💨
I thought Anthony left Smosh completely? So this is his only channel.
@@kazarisato5607 they bought it back didnt you see the video with Ian
@@kazarisato5607 He rejoined recently by buying Smosh again with Ian. They've already posted two sketches together on the main channel.
@@kazarisato5607 There's no way you're following his content but somehow managed to not know he bought Smosh back
Tyler was such a source of happiness and laughter for me during my darkest times. I wish he knew how much he meant to the OG viewers 5-10 years ago
I think you and Ian should do a "We spent a day with Rhett and Link" to get their perspective of being OG RUclipsrs and their thoughts on the whole Smosh situation.
Agreed! That would be so interesting
I have a feeling that’s already in the works somehow
Did you see the announcement in the description of the newest video? 😁😁
But no guarantee Ian will be involved, so fingers crossed
And he did!
Its nice how Anthony isnt gonna ditch this channel now that smosh is back
my farts are better than Anthony’s farts 💨
@RomanIsRandomyou overestimate my will to live
Agreed! Smosh videos are fun & lighthearted but theyre never as intellectual and stimulating as these! I watch both but theyre completely different vibes
@@Futurebound_jpg YES!! i just hope he doesn't burn himself out tryin to keep up w both channels
@RomanisRandomwilling to risk it
I did *not* expect to see KassemG here. Props to Anthony for actually getting OGs in the video. I’m really feeling the nostalgia now
My farts are better than Anthony’s farts.
He’s got an acid tongue!
Giving Grace so much support during this difficult time for her health. ♥ ♥ Cancer didn't stop her from doing this. Go, Grace!
as a person who grew up watching smosh, dan and phil and all the other OG’s it’s sweet to see YT/social media become revamped with y’all grown up and making content that feels genuine from where you’re at as adults 🫶
Same🎉 I love this
They all sound so depressed and burnt out talking about youtube. Its amazing and insightful at how much a tool this took on their lives and no one knew or could understand since it was a new space and these guys are the pioneers.
Im so happy this channel is staying and Anthony is back at Smosh, I need my daily dose of Anthony

OMG TREVI !! AA ITS SO CUTE TO SEE ALL THE OG CREATORS COMMENT ON THIS
HOPE YR DOING WELL GIRL❤
I’ve been a fan of Grace for nearly a decade and got to meet her last year. What an absolutely beautiful and hilarious soul! She speaks eloquently, while still being comedic. I wish her well on her current health journey, she’ll always be one of my favorite OG youtubers, and I love that I still get to keep up with her and Mamrie through This Might Get Weird 💕
So impressed Grace was able to speak so insightfully with everything else going on with her right now. Love you girl ❤
What’s she going through?
@@maddijasnyyshe has breast cancer
@@maddijasnyyShe has cancer
im pretty sure this would have been before she knew
Can y'all give some context please?
The proof that Anthony is a fantastic interviewer is that when Kassem started talking about setting up the Multi-Channel Manager company, Anthony still didn't talk about his own experience... even though Anthony's story of conglomerate companies is one of the most famous out there.
Sheesh! Defy was a conglomerate?
hearing tyler's laugh after so many years of not watching his content honestly is so nostalgic 😭😭
As someone that's been on youtube for over 10 years, hearing names like Kassem G, Dave Daves, iJustine, Michael Buckley and ShayCarl, even Charles Trippy when CTFxC was a thing, then onto Tyler and Zoe & Alfie and that wave- that shit was my form of entertainment growing up. It was a hideaway for me in the bad times. I have so much appreciation for what you guys have done and how you all shaped my adolescence.
As someone who has been RUclips as a viewer since 2008 and watching every one of these creators go from zero to hero to OG is pretty intense… but this was cathartic and gives so much closure and insight.
My farts are better than Anthony’s farts.
Strong second! It's so surreal and cool seeing them reflect on an era we got to glimpse into as viewers. Love these interviews.
RUclips’s prime golden days will always be 2007-2015
Man, what an era!
2016 is the year everything fell off.
Just came here to say ur god dam hot!
You very right!
fr and in 2016 was the year ad apocalypse started so it was gunna be an inevitable downfall anyways
Honestly. the ads and commentary tanked it
100% agree, 2016 is when people started to just hop in it to make money, not in the same way the OG RUclipsrs got into organically… definitely miss it !
Watching Tyler on Twitch has been delightful. He’s so good with content. His community is nice and cozy. He also seems really happy and content.
Props to Tyler for being so real about how introverted he really is and his feelings behind the 'success' - really puts things into perspective!
As a long time viewer of Anthony and Tyler, one thing that's so evident and so admirable about both of you is the personal journey you've each taken toward living your authentic truths. It really shows how much happier and healthier you are these days, and I can't think of two people who deserve it more. Much love.
My farts are better than Anthony’s farts.
grace and tyler and mamrie and the green brothers and charlieissocoollike and jenna marbles freaking raised me. i have so much love and appreciation for them always.
Tyler’s laugh was so nostalgic and when he said “hi everyone!” I felt complete. I haven’t watched him in a few years and to see him on here and growing so much and realizing he was just living as a character is so heartbreaking. I’ve felt like an imposter in my own work but to have it to this extent is so awful. But just hearing him laugh again suddenly sent me back to 2012 and me watching his videos to escape and to know he was doing the same makes me feel for him.
People in the comments if you have the time please go send your love and support to Grace as she is battling breast cancer right now. I’m so glad she has the support system of her husband, family and best friends but please sent her your kind words and encouragement to support her through this hard time. ❤
Coming from an OG DailyGrace fan.
Grace if you happen to read this I love your content, listen to the podcast every week and as a fan I support through all of this. Remember meeting you at vidcon like 10 years ago and you where the sweetest person ever. Stay strong and we your fans will always support you. ❤
stop Tyler looks SO GOOD he's literally glowing
10:39 The transition from Grace's "Only Smiles here Always always always" to Kassem G's "We are the firstborn in a dysfunctional family" is amazing 😂 🙌 editing team is wild!!!
I remember meeting Tyler at Vidcon in 2013? I was fiercely closeted at the time and so nervous about meeting him. Now seeing him on twitch is such a joy especially considering how chaotic his fandom was 10 years ago
as someone who watched grace and tyler back in my teenage years it's really refreshing to hear them talk about burnout and identity crises, like these guys really do go thru the same shit we all do, no one's that happy all the time!
I genuinely think Grace is one of the funniest person in the world. She's effortlessly funny, so much so that I feel bad for people who didn't get to appreciate her back then. Stay strong, though times are nothing for though women ❤
I love when he interviews other RUclipsrs! It really feels like two old friends having a conversation because that's what they are lol.
My favorite part of this whole video is Grace wearing cheetah print shoes. All these years later, she is who she is and she likes what she likes, and she likes a cheetah sneaker.
I kept trying to see if they were her old worn out pair... or that pair that a viewer sent her because her other ones were falling apart. I just now realized that it's entirely possible she actually bought a new pair. It was like seeing an old friend and you know their backstory!
I don’t even mean to exaggerate but this episode is one of my favourites Anthony has ever done. There was something so raw and honest and genuine that I truly adore about the I spent a day with series. This one in particular I just appreciate so so much
youre a great interviewer dude, let people speak and shine. and that gives great responses, thank you.
my farts are better than Anthony’s farts 💨
grace was such a huge part of my growing up and she is one of my favorite people on the planet. i think a lot of my humor and humanity comes from traits i picked up from watching her videos. so happy she was apart of this video i wouldn’t be the person i am today without her and her content ❤
I really like the chiller guest intros, the old more hype ones will always have its place, but these give off a more chill vibe. Excellent editing as always
I loved hearing Tyler Oakely speak, and as someone who is still finding my footing with my career, I relate to what he said so much about constantly feeling this pressure to keep going and doing absoutely everything because it feels like it'll never happen again. Ugh it's so overwhelming. Him saying taking a rest day doesn't mean it's a day of nothing like, blew my mind.
ug this makes me nostalgic in a way. i remember watching them back when it was all so new and exciting. crazy to think they were going through the same human experiences that non-creators went through cause it seemed like they had it so good
Tyler must be protected AT ALL COSTS
Growing up with these people and seeing them back again is so awesome, thanks Anthony for this
I remember watching every single one of these RUclipsrs and feeling so at home. I am so appreciative of every single one of you for your content then, and being open about it now. I’m so sorry everything was so challenging. It’s so special to see all of these incredible people be vulnerable and share their stories. These guys were traversing undiscovered lands every day and that is insane. You should all be so proud of your journeys.
This should 10/10 be a series. This was fantastic.
It is a series
Way to get me all up in my feels . . . So many OG RUclipsrs have completely fallen off the wagon but the ones who grew WITH their content were the ones who had the biggest impact on me as I grew up. What a trip.
I love seeing all the people who I used to love watching grow and change, and become so wise and genuine, and open about their experiences. I appreciate it so much!
As someone who has watched RUclips pretty much ever since it started (give or take a few months), it feels so good to not only see this, but to be blessed with OG Smosh back again, thank you all for making my childhood so memorable, I'm 26 and you all were honestly what kept me going through all the bullshit of childhood in England
Very well timed episode, on the heels of Anthony rejoining and reacquiring Smosh. Helluva flashback from the past.
Kassem made a really good point. Both sides of my family, dirt poor. My Dad hated that and moved us into a really nice neighborhood. Obviously, the issue was that we were just poor people living in a nice house. He spent so much money and time renovating the house and cars that he barely raised my sister and I.
just wanna say that i really love the stylistic shift the series has taken recently! i've been watching "i spent a day with" since around the start, and it feels like you've really found the perfect tone and look for the show. awesome work as always :)
I’m too young to know the absolute OGs like Kassem, but I really felt it when he said, “You get to a point where you’re so unhappy that anything is better than your current trajectory.” I love hearing from Tyler again after so long. I never really watched Grace, but I’m wishing her so much care on her health journey. RUclips is really a form of expression and I’m hoping that all these people are able to heal from the unknowns of original RUclips.
All these youtubers made my childhood and watching them again after so long brought so much nostalgia😭. I remember fighting to watch them
hearing tyler's laugh fills me with so much warmth and nostalgia. i've missed you baby
Anthony!!! I’ve been watching RUclips from as early as I can remember- I personally didn’t start watching you until you started doing interviews! I just wanted to say now that I’m in school for journalism and communications studies, you inspire me! You’re so authentic and you ask questions we are all wondering (and more) thank you for your content, determination and hard work!!
Tyler was my very first “creator” I ever started watching! Before 2012 I only really used RUclips for watching the classic viral videos but then I found his channel and was hooked. It seems silly in retrospect but watching him really helped me survive some rough periods in college. He was like my nice pick me up at the end of a tough, draining day.
sending grace so much love and heling energy i know shes going to kick breast cancers ass ! she will always be my comfort youtuber
grace’s point about how public the view decline was is something i’ve never thought about. like yeah that would suck to have easy numerical proof that people don’t like “you” (your channel) anymore
honestly youtubers do not get enough credit for the confidence and bravery to take that on, i could never do that lol
cheers to the production! these jump cuts between different people have a lot of continuity and are super seamless
It’s so refreshing getting to hear all of these old school creators reflect on that life and how they’ve changed and grown. With how prevalent content creation is now, it’s easy to forget such basic things as “what you see on social media is a curated version of that person”. I never watched Kassem and only heard his name once or twice Back In The Day, but I really appreciated his insights and perspective.
I remember Grace a little bit but for me the symbol of OG RUclips is Charlie is so cool like. She recently privated her videos after her transition (which I completely understand) so I can't go back anymore to feel the nostalgia but damn do I feel it! Charlie was the first person I knew that had RUclips as a job.
Charlie transitioned??
It's really good to hear all of them are doing well. Grace has a journey ahead of her, but she's going to handle it beautifully. I know it. Tyler was one of the creators that got me through some rough stuff as a teen. I'm so appreciative of them. 😊
Tyler really has one of the best laughs ever, it's so infectious
Loved that camera angle during the MCN section for dramatic effect! Would love to see more of that
Tyler was the first RUclipsr I ever followed back in 2008 or 2009. I'm also similar in age to him. The kids might not have clocked it, but as a longtime viewer I could see the burnout and stress behind his cheerful persona when he was at the peak of his RUclips fame. I'm glad he's found a new passion in twitch. Tyler always thrived on livestreams - I'd know, I watched all the ones he did for his birthday fundraisers! He's a very charismatic person.
The NOSTALGIA. I would love to see more OGs talk about this!
I grew up alongside these guys when RUclips first started. Man times fly. I still remember the early days of RUclips, sitting in my highschool library, and the girl next to me asking, "what website is that?" and me saying, "Its called RUclips. You can look up videos"
This is crazy and amazing, and I'm so grateful to see everyone in this video. Really brought back some memories seeing these OG faces!
I've always loved Kaseem, and seeing how insightful and real he is here made me so happy.
This video was so incredibly well-paced and well done. I really appreciated listening to the various perspectives. I think in Tyler's case to see this raw side of him, it was such a refreshing change. It really shows he has so much more to share than he realizes.
this is a brilliant episode, so thoughtful and vulnerable and open! reflection is incredibly important, and not losing sight of what matters to you and what brings you joy. its much like their passion, their hobbies accidently became their jobs and then their whole identity. yet they started as fun.
Loved this so much. I realized recently i joined youtube in 2008 and its been so fun to see all my favorite creators grow and change over the years. Was good to see all three of these guys but i vividly remember watching Kassem do California On and Askassem weekly and getting into Tyler's videos/reading his book. What a golden era of youtube ❤
Thank you for reminding me of the humanity of those in the spotlight, I appreciate it
The blooper at the end was GOLD. Thank you for including it!
The strive to stay relevant, grow and be "successful" is so exhausting. I'm a VTuber who started right before the 'boom' happened and I grew to 100k SO quickly.. and then when it started to become oversaturated, I lost it all. I'm still fighting, and a lot of what was said here were things I DESPERATELY needed to hear. Thank you so much for making this & for Grace, Kassem and Tyler for their openness.
Would love to see a part 2 with more OG RUclipsrs
I grew up and wiser with all of you and the amount of impact and awareness you’ve had on us especially now with sharing what u learned is unmatched. Love u guys and hope u always continue to grow ❤️❤️
I would love to see more videos like this, but in a roundtable style! Having these creators connect to each other in real time would be awesome
The nostalgia this episode hit me like a brick, these people were there for me growing up, now im doing my masters in college…
Grace, youre so strong and a role model for many. WE LOVE YOU!!
This awesome. Older RUclips was such a simpler time and glad you could bring some OG's on.

Its so nice seeing that they get the same recognition to this day! So nostalgic. Thank you Anthony!

Listening to Tyler talk about his RUclipsr voice is actually kind of cathartic. I enjoyed his content back in those peak days, but I always felt a certain level of cringe at how upbeat and exciting it was, and then I felt bad about thinking that because it felt rude even though I never really voiced that thought. And now I can see that I was picking up on that discomfort underlying the performance, and it’s a bit melancholic, but I’m so glad that he’s able to be more himself now and even let the world know about this darker side to what was going on.
bruh this video is wild for me because i watched all these creators at different times in my life (including anthony, lunchtime w smosh gang). the station is one of the first channels i subscribed to like i remember when they first started and what got me watching youtube in the first place and now fourteen years later i’m still here. i’m glad kassem is doing well. i adore tyler and grace but kassem was just SUCH a throwback
It scares me to think that probably a good number of people watching this didn't know who these three were before the video
My farts are better than Anthony’s farts.
Its still hard for me to comprehend that, you know? I'm barely an adult and yet I feel old for knowing who these RUclipsrs were and now these same OGs are being reintroduced to a new generation because of this video
@@p-__you’re weird asf bro
I'm old enough, but I wasn't on that side of RUclips. I watched charlieissocoollike and ethoslab.
I met Kassem when I was in high school walking around Venice beach. I think the video he was filming was California on drugs. He was so incredibly nice to me and my mom, I love seeing him thriving still.
I loved Tyler’s book Binge; reading that in high school was such an amazing experience because it was so raw and honest.
I love hearing from older RUclipsrs that I watched as a young adult. Their content helped me through my teens and twenties.
I couldn’t recognize Tyler without his glasses
11:47 - 12:09 is what people say about mothers all the time, too. "You chose this life, it's something so many people want, it's a blessing." It doesn't mean it isn't hard at the same time as being a privilege. And we still feel all the time like we can't express it bc we'll be judged. So it happens to so many different types of people who "have" what others perceive as something they want.
This felt like a highschool reunion. Seeing those faces and realizing how much times has passed. Tyler is unrecognizable, in a good way, my man is stunning. His laugh slapped me 10 years in the past it's crazy. I hope we get to see similar content with OG's that are both still in the game or out of it (if ofc they are comfortable and willing to come and talk).
RUclipsr voice was a thing, it changed but it's still around !
It is so refreshing to see the perspectives of these 4 people who so greatly shaped me in the early days of my RUclips consumption. I'm glad to see that so many of the people who I started watching and faded away from nearly a decade ago are being truer and kinder to themselves. Congrats to all on their future endeavors.
