If you want to share, I'm curious why you think the delay? I looked up US Thanksgiving, it was the 23rd, so plenty of time before the holiday rush period started. It's not like he was building it up in the meantime to try to build anticipation in hopes of increasing viewership. He didn't even give the exact date until late. Do you think they were waiting on someone's availability?
I was so surprised to read the comments about monetisation as I watched it live and there were no commercials in it at all for me. I don't pay for ad-free either.
BTW, I know a funeral I attended once, no one was aware in advance how muffled/scratchy the microphone was until the main eulogy was over and the next person was able to correct the issue when it was their turn by angling the mic differently.
That's interesting, I have felt such a disconnect in his videos as if they surely can't really represent his true emotional state. Given how much he loved her, I was not expecting so much "happy happy" content. Based upon how he's presenting it, he seems to think Jenny wanted him to do an objective dissertation on grief. Instead, I think she had wanted him to go through his own visceral healing and recovery process so people could continue the journey with him in the aftermath of his loss of Jenny.
Yes, he's shown a couple vulnerable moments (that people here roundly scoffed at) and mentioned a couple times how difficult it was and how much he missed her. I was actually expecting a much more candid portrayal of how overwhelming it must be. I was surprised how disconnected he seemed from the circumstances. I envision myself being so much more devastated than he presented, I would have been knocked to the ground by my grief at times. Not that I expected him to show it, especially if he's aware how much he's ridiculed on here, yet I didn't hear him even so much as mention that level. Given how many times they drove filming together, I probably would have been having a reaction whilst driving and have had to pull myself over to steady myself. I would have mentioned that. Or could he be experiencing relief that her suffering is over given how difficult her journey had been? See, this is the type of thing I wish he'd explore, not just film for filming sake.
Perhaps it is his awareness of the critical reactions that has made him much more circumspect and inhibited in what he discloses. I know it would have affected me as well if I publicised videos of myself, the reaction I received. An unfortunate consequence, the likelihood the audience ends up impacting and driving the substance itself.
Oh my, with such individualised cancers, how on earth can any clinical trials reflect any reliable results that can aid others?
Wishing everyone the very best in 2024!
