Controversial opinion: Jack does not bother me whatsoever. He always brings an energy to the group, even if he's not really contributing anything other than his reactions (which are typically filled with laughter).

Also ... Jack was part of my most-favorite BOTW moment; he can't be THAT bad:


Josh, on the other hand ... Total buzzkiller. Definitely a dude that takes himself too seriously (at least on camera ... Maybe he's more chill off-camera, who knows)

I think I could get along with just about anyone on RLM except Josh. Even Jack, I'd still have to be more guarded than with the rest, but I can imagine I'd still have a great time hanging out with him and the others.

Josh, on the other hand, if one "faggot" slips from my lips, I wouldn't trust that guy to not call my job and report me. He's the only guy whose appearances I always skip.

I didn't know the Great and Famous Rich Evans also draws. He's a Renaissance man.

I always got Jack mixed up with neck beard Josh. I don't mind'm he's kinda like an energetic dog; one of those mousey yappers. Josh though, he kinda sucks the fun from the air and doesn't feel genuine half the time. Always sitting or looking like he's hiding something. IDK, never liked'm. Wouldn't be surprised if Josh turned out to be a RLM Vaush.

I have a soft spot for Jack for his "growing up on the farm" joke in the supergirl BotW episode. He could have his moments.
 
Maybe the hate for Jack started with Previously Recorded?

Honestly, though, not even Rich passed the "vibe" check with me in those videos. I can easily see why they ended it.
 
jack's an annoying spaz that constantly soyjaks at the camera

we go through this and the prequel shit once a month in this thread
 
Jacks annoying, but I think he only got *really* bad when he started getting a taste of e-fame through RLM. He seemed to get a lot worse as Pre Rec went on, and I assume he is at his worst with all the escapist rejects.

But Josh is a fat faggot so he's still way way worse.

When Rich Evans is allowed to freestyle for too long, the fedora tipping eventually comes out, and all that "his laugh is the most wonderful sound in the world!" stuff flies out the window as you realize you're listening to just one more shrill know-it-all asshole.
 
While I agree that Josh is the worst regular on average, I like his appearances when the subject matter is extremely autistic, like the Twin Peaks content. Jack's stuff is never so bad I don't watch a video with him, but I'd live if he'd leave for good.
 
I think Jack is best when he's the foil/butt of a joke. Especially because he seems to get how to ham up his reaction to make it even funnier even if every once in awhile he'll go a bit too far into cringe.

Everyone stealing from him and never letting him drop the plinketto ball was great.

I wouldn't want him on there more often, but he's fine now and then.
 
See, I only know Jack from the RLM and Previously Recorded videos. Haven't bothered to look at his social media or his other endeavors or anything.

If he's an insufferable soyjack outside of doing RLM videos, then I'm cool with just being familiar with that side of him. Haha.

Streaming actually does take some level of "skill" or "extra charisma" to pull off. You're kind of forced to be entertaining for hours on end, which is especially difficult when you're multi-tasking with video games as the chat blows up about how much you suck at playing the game, haha. Very few streamers manage to come across well, if you ask me. Sadly, Rich Evans was not one of them.

And yeah, as much as we all love Rich Evans in RLM videos, he wasn't likeable in the Previously Recorded videos. He seemed to act as if he would have rather been anywhere else but there ... Which is guess is why the channel was short-lived. lol.

Yeah Josh is fine on Re:View because that series is about seriously discussing movies, he sucks on BOTW because he's too autistic to read social cues and will repeatedly try to take shitty B movies the rest of them are riffing on completely straight.

I never watch the livestreams. How bad did Rich get?
