"why do you use a basket" that killed me, i was laughing for a solid 5 minutes
...other than it being super cute and all.
It made me cringe so bad, I can't watch that scene, I love Brad but omg
Is there a beneficial to using a basket? ;-)
7:55
it’s peak adhd i love brad so much
Look, I'm just going to be honest. At this point I don't know if I'm watching these for Brad, or the editing.
Brilliant.
Lol I love the captions 😆😆
both lmao
You can’t edit what didn’t get on camera. I’m in tears.
Doesn't everyone
Yes
Why is no one talking about the "natural selection" bit Matt put in after both of the mushroom guys said they were self-taught
That was genius lmao
crazycatgirl18 FORREAL! I was like “OOH- shots fired!”
This is the most likes I've ever had. Comments too.
This was truly a great joke 😂😂
Shows they must be good/right, at least to a certain degree
After he said they’re baskets were “super cute” they left him 😂😂
"a lil tart, lil sweet"..."just like us vinnie"
nadav herstik “what a tease” 😂😭
Who's better then us?
@@dramaturgically ûpuppppp8
I like how we get the subtle, Matt is the editor NOT Vinny, comment from Brad. On behalf of the It's Alive fanbase, we apologize for miscrediting these epic edits to Vinny. Matt you're hilarious and a genius! Vinny you take great shots! Brad... you're a big boy. Thank you for such great content!
For those of you who knew Matt was the editor, help the world be a better place and correct us misinformed heathens.
Oh goddammit now I have to look for Matt's instagram
Floral Stripes Matt Hunziker on ig
I personally don't get why they don't just credit him in the video description! Many other large channels like this do, listing shooters and editors and motion graphics artists.
maybe he uploads the videos as well as editing them and he is humble enough to not really care if people know who he is or not
alternative title: Vinny takes 3 golden retrievers on a walk in the woods
Matt the editor.
Vinny the camera man.
Brad the host.
Name a better trio.
@Lukas Villiger 😂😂 Good job! 😅

Lukas Villiger I know this was written like a month ago, but you forgot Alfred QnQ

"Whose better than us Vinny?"
I LOVE that Brad's standing alone in the woods, with a basket, red windbreaker, & talking about wolves...but can't remember the name of "Little Red Riding-Hood"...😂😂😂
he remembered that she wore red, he said it
This should be a whole new series. Brad and Vin going around with local foragers from all different parts of the states. Finding what ever they can, berries, mushrooms, and edible plants/flowers. Then teaching awesome ways to cook with them! You would have to go to the same places several times of year to see the differences in what is available based on season.
OMG You're a genius! I would so watch that. 😩
I would totally watch the hell out of that.
Catareen Queen vinny quit ba and we’re all quaking
The "why do you use a basket?" bit had me rolling. I cannot express how much good these videos have done me on days when I can't even bring myself to crack a smile.
it's alive make us feel alive :)
The *congestion* inhale had me weeping
he managed to confuse not one, not two, but three nursery rhymes... how... i’m honestly impressed
That's just one more reason to watch, he's hilarious.
• • “over the river and through the woods” is its own nursery rhyme about thanksgiving or christmas + goldilocks + little red riding hood makes for a grand total of three nursery rhymes and one very confused brad
hey i havent heard those goldilocks and red riding hood "nursery rhymes" before how do they go again?
tumatauenga you clearly know what they meant when they called them nursery rhymes, brad straight up calls them that in the pinned comment, no need to be obnoxious about it
Added to the fact that it's not even a nursery rhyme... brad never fails to amaze.
3 grown men freaking out about mushrooms... love it
Yeah, when grown men freak out about mushrooms it's usually of a more existential variety.
Dude with the hat definitely knows how to forage for a different kind of shroom too
Lol they all wearing hats
@@Hungryforapples Are you saying they don't all have some experience with magic?
-- quite the opposite, I’m saying they are all wizards in that regard
"Washington.... The state." As someone who lives in Washington I understand all too well 😂
As a person originally from Washington who moved to DC, I relate to this on a spiritual level.
Haha me too!
As someone who doesn't live in either place i still can relate. Everyone knows
I could already tell by all the forest instead of Greek revival buildings and tourists.
You can tell those guys grew up here cause they have the accent that sounds they wanna die
7:54 when you need to meet your word count requirements in your paper... LMAO
BRs Anime Corner facts lol
BRs Anime Corner died when I saw that part lol
Lol
😂😂😂
WHEN THE CRAB APPEARED AFTER BRAD SAID "big boy" AHAHHA, love it
He's one of the boys now.
It’s because he kept using “big boy” to describe the crabs on the another episode of it’s alive.
yeah... that's why I thought it was funny lololol
I thought it was because they found an old porcini. When they get that old and mooshy, they smell like rotting fish.
Most underrated part of the whole video is when he’s trying to come up with the name of the Little Red Riding Hood. The grandma at the computer was me, way to go Matt.
I did not have to scroll far for this comment.
"Why do you use a basket?"
I still love Brad's little, shall we say, Ode to a question?
Matt thanks for not cutting Brad’s nature epiphany
Yeah, that son of a f***ing b****
I was so moved at that moment, that I wanted to just pause the video and go for a walk in the woods. And then he drops the F bomb :/
sounds like brad snacked on a special little mushroom
The real question is who is matt
"A little sweet, a little tart....just like us vinny" lmao
ikr
"Oh, ohh what a tease" had me dying 😂
Hey Brad, this was a great episode! I'm from Czech Republic and mushroom picking is our national past time. Czech people are crazy about mushrooms. Every fall the forest roads are lined with parked cars and everybody has a spare basket in the trunk just in case. An average Czech can recognise dozens of edible kinds and often many that are inedible raw, but edible after you prepare them properly. The lore on how to recognise them and how to prepare them as well as many recipes are passed on through generations. We love all kinds of Boletus mushrooms, but my personal favorite are Leccinum, those grow mainly under birch or aspen trees, and Armillaria and Clitocybe (or wood blewit), which are hands down the best mushrooms to pickle! I hope that Americans soon find their way to this amazing past time as well!
Klára Law Marešová That’s interesting! My paternal grandfather’s family originated from the Czech Republic!
From the other side of the Czech-Austrian border, at least in the Wald- and Weinviertel people are crazy about mushroom foraging, as well. Sadly when I grew up there was a lot of panic about mushrooms being contaminated from the Chernobyl accident so we only ever went foraging once or twice when I was a really small child. Sigh.
I saw this place you're talking about in a video. Side of the road, shrooms, czech girl. It's on youporn right?
You’d be surprised how many of us Americans do forage... I myself have learned a decent amount from forager friends of mine. Foraging can even make you money, especially during morel season.
I lived my childhood in Russia and spent summers foraging for mushroom with the fam. Those are my favorite ones (taste wise) and we called them podbereznik, where bereza is birch tree and pod is signifying underneath. Now i know the english name for it thanks for the memories!
Brad: “You can’t paint that! Can’t beat nature.”
Bob Ross: ”Hold my happy little tree”
Best comment ever
Brad Leone is the Bob Ross of cooking
he's right, though. you really can't
Wacking of paint brush intensifies*
@@sullypara2928 beat the devil out of it :)
16:43 I'm dead. Whatever you're paying Matt, it isn't enough.
I missed it the first time I saw it, but it killed me too
Okay shoutout to Matt for editing in Christy Carlson Romano and Hilary Duff in "Cadet Kelly" when Brad says "maggots". I'm sorry that was just too great of a touch to ignore haha
They all have a GREAT sense of humor & I love the ad-ins too.
The fact that we got the reference and remember the names after all these years is a testament to Disney's marketing. Literally couldn't stop laughing though!!!
Millennials
I was just going to comment on that. I was so shocked because I was an extra in that as a teenager and I have NEVER sen anyone reference it before.

Matt referencing Cadet Kelly was a deep cut I was not expecting at all.
underrated - to bring that in with the "duff" comment. *mwah* .. spectacular!
Brad really *LOVES* nature. How much more adorable and perfect this man can get. This was such a simple episode but i knew how much he rlly loved being there. i love this showwww
Yes! Me too!
"They're girthy. They feel nice."
"Oh you're just doing them both at once? Double fisted"
Are we still doing phrasing?
you would make Sterling Archer happy my friend.
I believe all the jump cuts in It's Alive are to cut out Vincenzo's laughs.
Why on earth is no one talking on how Brad growled like a dog at Vinny in the first bit? It was adorable.
Brad Leone
*has the software of a Golden Retriever, hardware of a human being*
I’ve never wheezed laughed harder than brad’s congestion smelling. Bless Matt for being the best editor ever!!!
the "big boy" reference was top. For those that don't get the crab in the corner, on the crab episode Brad kept calling the Alaskan crabs "big boys" XD
I'll never hear "big boy" and not think of crabs again.
3..2..1... "Natural Selection" I am DYING Vinny. Give this man his own show hahahahahaha
OMG if I only waited a little longer... WHY DO YOU USE A BAKSET... I am rolling
@@sarahgausman6431 right! The edits are amazing!
Vinny doesn’t edit the videos, the editors name is Matt Hunziker
Vince is the camera man. Matt is the editor. Brad actually calls him out in this video (the part where he's talking about mother nature's art)
we are Vinny
the part where he’s laying in the “field” had me CRYING
“Oh well.” - Foraging proverb 😂
by far the best quote of the video is "my favourite artist you ask? mother nature. look at that. good luck, you paint that, you sculpt that, you make that. you cant. shes got you beat every time." im stealing that
I like to think that nobody asked those mushroom guys to show up, they just sidled up to Brad and Vin and were like "Hey, did you know that the layer between the soil and the living plants is called duff?"
Afterwards, when the shoot was over, Brad turned to thank them for their help, but they were already gone.
All they left behind were memories. Memories and their beards.
Twilight Zone-y :)
that sounds about right for the mushroom foragers here.
They were magical 'shroom gnomes.
And spores 😂😂
Matt the editor is just as talented as Brad, one of a kind really.
That why do you use a basket had me in stitches
"Why do you use a basket?"
When you're trying to hit the word count
Leave the mushrooms you're not interested in, in this case anything but a bolete and chantrelle, to sporulate until the end of their life cycle. If you pick them but deem them unworthy to bring home, cut / crumble them up and spread them around the area to encourage spreading of the organism since mycelium can also grow from the fruiting bodies. Not mandatory practices, but it'll make your more experienced foraging buddies smile if they see you do them.
Brad "awh, I wish you guys could smell this" Leone
k a y l e e wtf i see you everywhere
Brad "Wourder" Leone
Tip for other collectors: Don't just rip out the mushroom, cut it wit a knife. this way the mycelum doesn't get damaged and they regrow more easily.
I was wondering about that! Thanks!
This is pretty hotly debated so don't freak if you do happen to see someone pull
And don't rip them out when you already know you won't take them.
I highly disagree. Leaving the stipe can rot the mycelium and risk destroying the whole colony. Twisting and removing the entire fruit body is much better for the organism.
Not true, its just Not relevant to the mushrooms if you Cut or Not, for many spezies its important to pull them out to identify
2:43
'So that's just a little bit of-'
''Exactly.''
7:55 when you need to fill up an essay lol
My favorite part of the video.
😂😂😂😂
Brad has such a great personality and the editor is doing an awesome job to bring it out and have a little banter war with him at the side. Also Brads affection for the mysterious Vinny,it's just so wholesome. I was never disappointed by these videos.
Spoiler: Vinny is on Instagram
"Goodluck, you paint that"
Bob Ross: Hold my titanium hwite...
Love the translation of Brad's long babbling about the baskets
Oh Brad, you're such a _fungi!_
I'm lost, please help. Badum tssss...
I knew this comment was going to be here. Lo it was the second one down. Choice!
now all brad needs is some fungus to party... 😂
Great dad joke. I’m glad someone stepped up to the plate and said it.
@@Madillusionist that's doesn't even make sense...
These are exactly the kind of guys I would expect to do mushroom foraging in Washington state.

"I'm R D and I'm tough because I like getting cold. Nobody else gets as cold as me, everyone that puts on a jacket is feminine"
RD It's been between 60-70 lately. VERY odd for October. Usually by now we've had some hard freezes and loads of rain. We had about a week of heavy rain last week, now clear, dry, and warm again.
Story time!
When I was taking AP biology one of the only units I remember is the one on fungi. This is because fungi are everywhere and are actually related more closely to animals than any other kingdom.
The mycelium (basically the roots of a mushroom and the main body of the organism) can be huge covering miles underground and you’re pretty much always breathing in thousands of spores.
Therefore I eventually came to the conclusion that if fungi evolved in the right way they could totally decimate us. (After all there are plenty of parasitic fungi like the infamous Ophiocordyceps unilateralis)
So in conclusion fungi rules us all👍🏻
brad's whole bit about mother nature actually got me teary eyed
I like how Matt is throwing shade at the mushroom foragers.
Right! It was perfect!
It's not Vin that does the editing
Bleep Bloop wait how and where
About them learning on their own, and natural selection definition. Pretty much by saying their going to kill themselves. lol
oh oh gotcha, thanks
This is my favourite episode by far. Their enthusiasm towards these mushrooms really sells it.
truly...his fungus friends are SUCH nerds
Oregonians my man
Brad: inhales

8:15 “How to elongate an essay” with Brad
Brad: "My favorite artist, you ask, Vince?"
Me: Oooh, don't you say it.
Brad: "You know, I've been saying this for decades."
Me: Goddamnit, he's gonna say it.
Brad: "My favorite artist?"
Me: Here we go-
Brad: "Mother Nature."
Me, groaning: Theeere it is. What a cheeseball.
He does have a valid point though
@@SgtAwesome97 agreed. that part actually made me tear up a bit. i really feel like there isn't enough appreciation for nature when it's so beautiful. really breaks my heart to see all the destruction going on
Yes nature is awesome. Who is mother nature? lol oh i forgot us humans have to make up and give credit somewhere it isn't due lmao
@@oShadowkun Ignore her and she'll f*** you up at the very first opportunity. Why do you think they call her a mother?
5:26 I love the call back to the crab episode
Still waiting for the Brad + Matty Matheson Noodlin for catfish episode.
Used to go pick chanterelles with my dad whm I was a kid. About a couple of pounds in a couple of hours. Then we would sauté them in butter and finish them up with heavy cream on some pasta. 2 part pasta to 1 part mushroom. Can't beat that
It's the best. Now days I forage winter chantarelles because they stay fresh much longer and even dried contain most of their flavour
Thankfully there's a bounty of them around my area in the summer. They are my fave fungi! I love to oven steam them (wrapped in foil) in butter/oil w white wine + just a touch of garlic - then put them over (herbed) pasta, of course. Heaven!
Brad gives off the hardest dad energy i've ever seen.
8:39 Dang, with the music and everything, I felt that sir
What song is this?

love the editing. the offended lady at the end made me lol =D
7:56.... best part of the video so far! XDDD I love this editing.
Oh wow, HAHA, the break down of Brad's rambling basket question into a basic sentence had me rolling. Brilliant.
Love how the editor always takes the piss out Brad 😭 best part of the whole series
I didn't think I could love a duo more than Brad and Vinny, but life comes at you fast. We stan soft hats, spore friendly baskets, and fungi facts.
8:00 I'm worried one day brad might be having a stroke and no one will notice ^^
This comment made my day
“Is there a beneficial...” I been laughing for the last 3 minutes!! Lol! Beautiful editing. I really enjoy theses vids; keep em coming. Brad, you crack me up!!
The mushroom Brad found by himself growing on the decaying log is a species of Russula, some edible and some will definitely make you sick, he was smart to leave it alone
But he shouldn't have ripped it out in the first place. Nothing spells out "city dwellers" more than when you see perfectly fine mushrooms ripped out and thrown away. Russulas are wonderful for soup but you need to know what kinds grow locally.
Wish he’d snapped the stalk, it looks like a leucopaxillus amarus to me- “too bitter to eat” according to David Arora
It is definitely genus Russula, not Leucopaxillus. Notice the 'brittle gills' (the moniker for this genus) when Brad drags his knife across them. Some Russula species are extremely spicy when raw and need to be boiled in a change of water to make palatable, but there are no toxic members of the genus Russula. Even the species Russula emetica has actually been proven to be non-toxic, just unpalatable unless properly prepared.
I've been binging this series from the beginning and I have to say, this is my favorite episode yet. The Brad + Vinny + Matt trifecta had me absolutely rolling. A+ entertainment right here
50 years from now, Vinny dies in a freak hoverbus accident. The funeral is halfway through when Old Brad lets out a gutteral scream, runs over to the hovercasket, and starts yelling "WHO'S BETTER THAN US, VIN? WHO'S BETTER THAN US, VINCENZO?", hover tears streaming up down and sideways along his half-robot face.
The funeral director presses the button to launch the hovercasket into the sun.
Ironically, the It's Alive music plays.
Jeez
Did you get the wrong mushrooms?
All mushrooms are edible, some just once.
No, they are not
Please learn the definition of said word before you kill someone
Kenny Rupert it was a jokeee
Everything is edible... Somethings you just shouldn't eat.😂
@@kennyrupert1402 you must be fun at parties.
"We're out here in Washington...the state!"
Thanks for clearing that one up, Brad lol
The stress-relieving properties of It's Alive are life-changing
Vinny has an instagram account, I kinda feel bad looking at it. I liked the mystery of not knowing what he looked like
Ok but what is it
@@deniserodriguez8689 "@vincentcross" your welcome
What is it!
IAMTHEFISHFIN @vincentcross
I know right
I'm laughing so hard at 16:44 this video is a masterpiece.
Lmao! I was going to comment the same thing. 16:44 is a hilarious little innuendo with that video clip edit. XD
8:16 is just savage editing 😂
the mother nature part was actually inspiring
"Here's a little treat for you." *eats huckleberry*
Can't forgive the fact Brad didn't say he was joined by fun-guys
He didn't because he's a PROFESSIONAL!!!
I guess he really wanted to get on with foraging so there wasn't mushroom to make puns.
Do you want to know where the door is? Or will you see yourself out... of the room?
(I don't know if the joke works xD)
Notus he said they were the fungus friends
i love how brad makes everyone around him laugh. you can tell the mushroom guys love him
Me watching the first 5 seconds of this video: Sees Brad growl at Vinny. *Smashes that Like button*
THERE'S THE COMMENT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR! He growled like a dog 😂
Confirmed: Brad *IS* a Golden Retriever
@@gwenzeezee I was thinking bear, but I like your energy.
Best outro outtakes yet. That stock footage insert when Brad flubs recalling which tale "Goldilocks" was from. 🤣🤣
Pay the editor more LOL
arrrbooey it’s vinny so true
He said it was someone named Matt in this video.
omg at 5:22 when he says big boy and a crab pops up in reference to the Alaskan crabs video
“ lil tart lil sweet .. just like us vinny” 💗
Brad's personality is so ridiculously amazing that I feel like he's one of my friends. I feel like I know him, and we've bonded over so many things but when in fact, he's probably reading this and thinking I'm a crazy mentally ill person.
I read that as 'boned' over so many things
I completely agree. Every time I go fishing with buddies, I wish I could invite him with. Haha
As a Latvian, it is so weird to see people go mushroom picking and not recognizing them, because for us it is like a national sport haha. Everybody goes to the woods since they are, like, little children and the best mushroom spots are usually kept as large secrets, even from family members lol. That mushroom at around 9:32 is called "Bērzlape" in Latvian. I dunno how it is called in English but it's Latin name is Russula claroflava. They come in all types of colours and here, in Latvia, the red one is more common. ALSO a BIG NOTE: you are supposed to use the knife to CUT the mushroom, not just wiggle and pull it out. You are not using the end part of it anyway, so leave the root part alone so it grows soo many more mushrooms out of there.
^^ This. Fellow mushroomer from Sweden :P
I am not even able to identify mushrooms in the shop but I have always heard that you should cut them to avoid hurting the mycelium...That's the very reason you can find mushroom knives with specific curved blades
Juan---People are very divided on that issue. I'm a "cut" person, so you're not damaging mycelium, but also so that you put less dirt in your basket/bag that you're gonna have to clean off later.
some mushrooms you can cut but we prefer to pull this one as much of the delicious stem is underground. this does not harm the mycelium in any way. there have been multiple studies on this. no difference whether you cut or pull.
The editing on all these videos and the little sound effects and add ins are absolutely hilarious and make my day every time
"It's so quite.. And that air! MA! MA! MA!!"
that's it, found my favorite Brad qoute
Isn't there a saying like,
all mushrooms are edible, but some are only edible once
Hey that's a great saying! Haha
Nope
There's a mushroom that's both edible and inedible at the same time
"There are old mushroom hunters, bold mushroom hunters, but not old, bold mushroom hunters."
Lyfted Legend---The psychedelics? Or Amanita muscaria, which is likely what Brad was talking about? The red caps with white dots? Eaten raw, they'll make you puke...then high. Eaten cooked, might still make you sick then high. Boiled twice in salted water, sliced, cooked, and eaten, supposed to be safe. Dried, made into tea with a little lemon...get you high. And they're perfectly legal.
Don't eat random mushrooms, make friends AND don't die. This is entirely too much pressure.
3:17 "its earthy and mushroomy"
HMM YES. THE FLOOR IS MADE OUT OF FLOOR.
These guys seem so chill I’m 😌☁️☁️☁️🌳🌳🌳 listening to them!! I can’t describe it in words
Small addendum to the whole about being careful with mushrooms, and making sure you have someone with you who knows what they're doing: Please be aware that sometimes even professional mushroom foragers can be wrong, so please be very careful when foraging for mushrooms, if you're even slightly in doubt about a mushroom, either throw it out, or eat it while someone else is with you who doesn't eat it. Mushrooms can be lethal.
Anything can be lethal. I could die today. Anyone could die today. STAY SAFE. 😉
True, but there's a difference betweeen eating an unknown mushroom, and taking a breath of air, one's significantly more dangerous than the other.
op4000exe Yup, but air isn’t the only thing we have to worry about. All the dangers of the world are more dangerous than a mushroom. Just be careful, everyone.
I'm not sure what your on about. Like, I'm fairly sure a bee that will sting me if I provoke it is less dangerous than a mushroom that will straight up murder me... mushrooms are no joke
L Pharmer I’m kidding, lol.
Is it weird that I only watch Bon Appetit just to watch It's alive? I mean let's be honest, it's a pretty great show.
Nope!
It's the only reason I watch.
Seriously one of the best Its Alive Episodes. Could rewatch a thousand times :D 🍄
always entertaining and a delight to use the recipes ! thanks Brad!
