    You’re an epic host and an even epic-er friend, I wish you told me this was being filmed though, now I have to look for cameras whenever we hang out 🎥 Thanks for the most fun I’ve had during an interview!
  • @carter_lovejoy
    Seeing Brandon do his characters without the wigs, makeup and costumes is so surreal to see.
  • @loxlle2317
    “cathy’s just my mom” IS THE BEST SENTENCE EVER HAHAA
  • @4_306
    Okay but Brandon is a VERY talented multitasker, he voices Helluva Boss Blitzo,Has his own YouTube channel, and a LOT of characters to act, sing, and just play around with, he's overall an enjoyable person and I wanna see him irl soon, :D
  • @hussissalmon
    Damn, Blitzo taking the time outta his busy day to voice Brandon in this video is INSANE to me
  • @SandiByrd
    I think Brandon missed the mark entirely when he referred to his real self as underwhelming. I find just him telling his story quite captivating. He's just an entertaining, fascinating guy. Love him! 🥰
  • @beautybard
    HE IS SO FUCKING SWEET. I saw him live and he was an absolute delight. Knowing he can be a fucking deviant during performance but is an angel when you meet them... You almost have hope for "you SHOULD meet your heros". Thank you for doing this interview. I love him so much and getting to hear his story. You can see the slight dissociation during certain questions... I may or may not have cried.
  • @Vikapediathat
    I just got into Helluva Boss a month ago and absolutely adored Blitz’s voice only to realise that he’s basically an internet video legend! I’m glad I found this interview though because holy shit Brandon went through a shit ton of trauma with being an outcast to get to where he is today. I’m not saying the end justifies the means, but it’s nice to remember that if you stay true to yourself you’ll find your way out of the night no matter how dark it is.
  • Never in a million years did I think that Brandon Rogers would have been involved with the case of Elisa Lam and The Cecil Hotel.
  • @TheRiotLights
    27 minutes of Brandon out of character is more than I've ever seen him in the 7+ years I've followed him. I love him as a person and his ideas, his thoughts, the way he views the world. turning the characters off and just being Brandon is so nice.
  • @kingpuppet5881
    Firstly, Anthony and Brandon are drop dead gorgeous. Brandon is an incredible artist and I adore him. So nice to see his true self. What a kind, beautiful soul.
  • @kay198
    we aint gonna gloss over the fact Brandon Rogers investigated for Elisa Lams case. That shit made my mouth wide opened
  • Nice to see Brandon in a more serious setting talking from the heart. He’s so much more than the costumes and characters, he is purely kind and funny <3
  • @Abby-dq2yk
    It is crazy that he started in 2006. I have watched him since 2006. Sometimes falling off but always catching up on him. 16 years as a fan. Thank you Brandon for years of laughs.
  • @arryhay
    Brandon's content has always made me feel happy but hearing how he felt like me at school has made me feel better about myself knowing that their are other people like me.
  • @themysticblaze
    I already knew Brandon was a genuine, hard-working person but holy shit. The fact that he was able to do a show after experiencing something so traumatic and awful is crazy to me. I hope he stays safe. Bless this man :( <3
  • @SoniasWay
    Anthony is the best host ever. He makes everyone feel so comfortable and always asks the right questions
  • @EdenTollefson
    I can’t listen to this without my brain going Blitzø when Brandon says certain things
  • 6:26 the way he describes this feeling made me tear up because ive never felt like someone got what it was like for me as a kid and someone i look up to just explained that feeling effortlessly
  • @peachganja6953
    I know this comment will get lost in the sauce but I really really hope that Brandon Rogers knows the impact he's had on his fans. I love this man so much and I have for 6 years. He's brought me smiles when I was at my lowest. Out of everyone in the world that I could meet in person he'd be in my top 5. I even made a top 10 Brandon Rogers slide show and presented it to my tech class. Brandon, if you read this comment, know that you are amazing and you inspire me and thousands of others like me.
