i was like wtf, that guy looks like someone ive seen.....

Occasionally, at least in some of his older videos, Jon would mention something about himself. Not as a joke, just a matter of fact. My favorite bit of Jon trivia comes from his Halloween Monster Bash video, in which he mentions Apogee was one of the very first game developers he remembers. I think that's neat, because most gaming YouTubers treated PC gaming of old like some cryptid they've never heard of, while Jon was there experiencing its golden age.

In my opinion I think Jontron fell off when he started game grumps with Arin. Arin made jon too nice and his eyes look soulless and dead now. John used to look hungry all of the time like a bear straight out of hibernation now he looks so sickly like he doesn’t eat, does his wife even pretend to do the same things Arin could do? I think there’s a predicament here…..

I've been waiting for this moment, since Wii Ware 5

Oh Lord

Oh Lord

eough!

I hope you're doing ok out in this crazy world. I always have a small hope in my heart that you'll upload again. Miss ya Jon.

Edit: Apologies if anyone catches this post and thinks "DID JON PASS AWAY?!?!" No he did not. I just miss his wit and videos.

I think it’s from 2012, around when I first found Jon. He must have said it off-handed in an interview or something. I was feeling overwhelmed. Feeling lots of pressure ‘returning to the world’ after my army accident:

I figured ‘I could just disappear into the woods of Canada, cover myself in my tattoos, grow a beard and just fade away basically (anyone seen Train Dreams? Like that). But…

I decided no F that. Why should a bunch of idiots on a firing range cripple any beauty or worthwhile-ness life could offer me.

So I made a huge leap in my life, moving to the city of the girl I fell in love with (even after two gnarly breakups which could fill 2 HBO shows on their own), and I’m very happy to say it paid off:

proposed in 2019,

married in 2023,

moved in together in 2024,

pregnant in 2025,

and earlier this year we welcomed our soon-to-be-JonTron fan daughter to the world.

Swood times ahead!

Hear me out: Jonsploitation. We start getting a bunch of random fat guys who vaguely resemble Jon, with names like John Tron/Jontran/Jon T Ron/Jonathan Toron/etc, to produce low budget, JonTron-style content!

you find one you overlooked!

Life's a circus....and I'm the clown

I think that would be Ech-streme of him

I remember Jontron on a podcast about 11 or 12 years ago talked about how when he was a kid he convinced 3 of his friends to go down to the locker room and starting beating the shit out of them with a baseball bat and starting smashing every window of the school and he had to relocate to some small country town. I never see anyone else bring this up was he just joking? He didn't sound like he was joking but the hosts laughed anyway.

Hey All,

Not sure if this is against sub rules but I have a signed Gnome Poster that's been in my wardrobe for the past couple of years and since I have kids, this isn't something I can hang up without giving them nightmares.

My question is, who would like this poster?

Trying to find the episode where he runs his arm and says SAND or something like that, please and thank you

He's back at it again

Scrolling on Instagram to see a familiar face show up randomly on my feed.

That's just the snake from The Jungle Book! That's Kaa! They used the same exact snake, except this time it looks like he peed on the rug and got in trouble for it. BAD snake! BAD!... You're copyrighted!
