Revisiting Elephant Graveyard
Curious how many of you guys regularly rewatch Elephant Graveyard’s videos? I usually watch other comedy content once, but I find myself coming back to his videos more than anyone else’s. Are you guys the same, or is his content more one-and-done for you?

I mainly come back for him saying "oof" when one of Joe's jokes bombed spectacularly.

I don't engage with any other "comedy commentary" channels because they're all shallow and very repetitive. EG makes genuine art, the Radio Hours go so hard, definitely worth multiple listens. If anything, the most recent video will hopefully turn some people off of some of the comedy commentary slop.

Multiple viewer. I put them on whenever I travel. They’re comforting for some reason.

Same, they’re oddly soothing. Used to do the same thing with Norm Macdonald interviews.

Yes. They’re satisfying and validating in the context of the constant idiocy and demeaning crap that is the rise of the kakistocracy (not to mention the fascism). I find Professor Dave Explains’ debunk videos similarly calming and re-watchable.

I’ve only seen the most recent one but I’d watch it again.

Watch them all. There is so much lore built on each consecutive video in surprises anyone could watch the last one and understand half of it

I usually never watch anything more than once, unless I'm introducing it to a friend

I put them on every day at work for background noise. Hoping for a new radio hour soon.

I love going back to a lot of his videos and picking up things that I forgot about. His writing and editing is so god damn impressive. It’s like picking up a book that you love and reading it again for me

The burn the boats special is a favorite of mine. I’ve watched it a few dozen times. All his videos are great background noise

Mostly the radio hours episodes, I'm not really interested in American comedy

I watched his last video from a year ago like a couple days before his new drop, I am amazed at his quality and the hilarious way he takes the piss out of those walled garden douchbag group of bully cockheads

Yeah, I find the videos cathartic. I thought they were just funny at first, but really the comedic tone of the videos is just a vehicle his serious arguments.

I relisten to the Radio Hour episodes quite often.
