Ian absolutely slapped this together at the last moment as a response to Sam's video. Ian doesn't even notice what he has in his own video.
Ian keeps whining that he has questions about "your comedy" and that Sam wasn't genuine with him so he didn't get to find out, yet during the interview with Nick while Sam is there both Sam and Nick are being genuine and explain the comedy.
Nick says, ". . .and it's 'not allowed', and anything that's 'not allowed'. .to me it's like

" and "super funny, uncomfortable, yeah I think I learned that from Sam, getting uncomfortable and stop worrying what other people think. It's not a big deal. It's really not, and I think I needed that."
Sam then describes it as "it's like showing your taint. It's like bombing onstage with a joke. If I show you my taint and no one likes it now I'm a fagot. Now I'm onstage in like more shame than I've ever been and I want no one to ever see this video."
Sam's point is that showing your taint is uncomfortable, and if you don't do it well and it's not funny then you just have your taint out for no reason.
Ian at the end of the video says the point is "to never show anyone your taint." Ian doesn't get it and thinks Sam was saying 'hide behind "meta-irony" so you're never embarrassed'.
It's really funny to me that Ian doesn't get this because his style of humor literally used to be showing people his taint. The entire premise of videos of his like 'LEGIT FOOD REVIEW - Dumpster Chicken (Ft. H3H3)' is 'I am showing my taint to Ethan to gross him out'. It's literally just do something uncomfortable and hope it's funny.
Really Ian should have not posted anything rather than this because he just comes off as either too dumb or too autistic to carry on a conversation and unable to see outside his pre-conceived notions.
Also the caption Ian put as to why he blurred the poster Sam gave him "blurred because it's got literal p rn and hardcore violence on it". He censored the word 'porn' in onscreen text. He's 100% Susan's cuck now.
Edit: Gee Ian, I wonder why Sam didn't want to talk to you after he said "Do you really think I fucking live like this? With a crackhead girlfriend, in a dentist's office, and I pour garbage and Legos all over the floor?" and you answered ". . .Yes?"
