A modicum of effort to tie in a particular verse with some happening or moral quandary  could have been more appreciated. Nool is not even asked to give commentary and couldn't do it even if asked. Joah accepted the call

That's a really good point. It would even be funny/impressive if there was a person in the chat that could somehow find random verses of scripture to pair with something relevant in the stream. People would honestly try and find passages that make no sense except in context of the stream, call me an optimist.

Just literally anything with a tad more substance than a fortune cookie.

Hell, stream specific fortune cookies would even be a better gimmick
 
Didn't the Enoch thing start because Josh got asked what the price to read the whole thing would be and then jokingly told the guy he'd only do it superchat by superchat, probably assuming the cost and time requirement would put the guy off actually doing this? I could be getting Mandela effected but I feel like I remember something like that in a stream ages ago.

I'm actually kinda curious about a profit breakdown now. How much was made off the Enoch stuff, both the guy chatting Josh to read it and the people who sometimes outbid him for Josh to not read it.

im not a josh tier femenist, but even i can see past the "generic mens podcast where they invite random dumb whores that spout stupid shit and make fun of them/ look how stupid women are" its slop that incels consume to feel better about themselves

I just thought the All cultures are valid and Baby spikes are good was funny coming from someone whose nostrils are shaped like that.
 
@Null What doses are you taking your Vit D and Vit K2 at? I ask because Vit D won't fucking with your bones until your levels are very high. Vit K raises your risk of blood clots and subsequent stroke or pulmonary embolism. Considering your co-morbidities, the clotting risk from the Vit K is definitely something to be concerned about.

Regarding Enoch and readings in general:
Josh can do what he wants, he has the final say. However I think he is overestimating the amount of people who hate reading Enoch. I don't know what flow there is in the superchats, it has always been "Hey look at this" or "Please read this".
The pay off has always been at the end when the audiobook is compiled and produced. So if you don't mind Josh reading things in the superchat end segment just leave a like or reply and give your opinion so Josh's stance is informed: Should Josh stop reading superchat things? Is it just scripture? Is it just Enoch?

Dude I am pretty sure that it's just memes about loving or hating Enoch. Josh is running a business and is just satisfying the highest bidder. If someone were to send Josh $500 to read from the book of Enoch once again for September, he probably would in a heartbeat.

You're overthinking it. Josh is a moneywhore, as we all are.
 
Nice show.

Does anyone else get a message box below the episode (on YouTube ) with a suicide prevention notice and a button to press to call a helpline?

I haven't been able to talk about this sooner, but i'm kinda dissapointed at the poor characterization of the Brazilian censorship situation by @Null on September 3rd.
This isn't about Musk vs some random judge in a third world shithole, it goes far deeper than that.
Its not the first situation null talks about without research or anything, just his opinions, i mean dude, you run a website, against your health and your own sanity that is all about archiving and discussion.
There's retards doing bullet point posts on this thread or A&N or wherever.
Look dude, you're busy as fuck, i'm not asking you to look up 58 hours of X or Y or Z, but you could do a 10 minute rundown before you start your stream, or ask people here.

@Null I need to know why an IT teacher expelled you as you mentioned in the last MATI episode
Click to expand...
He ended up mentioning it in superchats, a different teacher had died a day before he used some computer feature he wasn't supposed to in order to message everyone some note saying he hated the school. Teacher's not having a nice time, since their long term friend had just died, and kicks Josh out of all the IT stuff. He was only there for IT stuff, so he just dropped out.
 
The interesting part was that the teacher then blamed Josh directly for the other teacher’s death, which is pretty fucked up regardless.

I introduced netsend to my school too and got threatened with expulsion over it (plus shoulder surfing an admin password).
 
If you didn’t use netsend to IM friends during IT class, what was the point of being there?

An old job I worked at years ago had an ancient UNIX program sandboxed in windows for patient scheduling and schedule lookup. I used it to check if my coworkers were idle and would send random messages to confuse them and ask why they were not working. Sometimes I would send fake gossip too. Fun times.

Joah should have been rewarded for trying to use humor to brighten the day of the school.

First the spergy anime letter that Josh salted and burned
Click to expand...
Josh can attest to this. I have never once sent Josh a letter, anime related or otherwise. I just started the project as a way to give Josh consistent money. It was just a fun project it being Enoch was just chance. I gave a choice of bible books and "or if you want something weird how about Enoch" because someone did the same thing with the Book of Matthew with Sam Hyde one paid verse at a time. If Sam Hyde had been paid to read Dune or something, I am sure I would have picked like Starship Troopers or a Warhammer short story.

I support Josh's work and because my card won't work on Gumroad I wanted to give him consistent money even when I had nothing to say. And read above reply. Recently a similar thing happened with Sam Hyde, so I figured it would result in some good fan content in a few years, so I offered "Want to make an audiobook one verse at a time like Sam Hyde did, I will send in Superchats to read them when I have nothing to say."

I tried to aim for 2 dollars a verse. I upped it to $3 occasionally if I felt it was particularly long and difficult. I try to group them so it might be one verse a show if it is long, or 4 verses if they are all like 4 words long. Spending $12 a week on average is not really an issue for me.
