I would have probably found those segments much more interesting if I hadn't heard Sam rant about this exact topic in his youtube videos a billion fucking times. He's so anal about that hustler mindset that it was a huge breath of fresh air to hear him shit all over David Goggins saying you don't have to be in abject misery 24/7 to be successful and that exercise is fun. He's never gonna ease up on the point about "wasting" time though I suppose. By that logic I shouldn't watch any of his content cause I'm losing hours I could've spent creating something.Also those Time Segments that bookended the whole thing just feels like 4chan depression core bullshit. "FREEZE TIME BY DOING MENIAL LABOR AND SUFFER" Yeah Sam I think Fry Cooks are generally happier than you.
I think on that Hodge Twins podcast he admitted he has like 8 projects going simultaneously right now and if he ever finishes too many at once then he immediately starts getting depressed. Crazy work ethic but I'm not shocked he doesn't get the idea of just being content with what you have in life and enjoying existing and instead seeing it as a waste.
In contrast to me bitching and moaning: I really do like that Erick construction sketch lol. The recurring drug dealer character whose entire gag is that he shows up and berates people for buying his products and then beats them up is gold. Erick has some serious acting chops as well, I'm more impressed with him in every sketch.
I also like Erick and Nick going all in on the stereotypical spic voice in the coffee sketch and then Sam opens his mouth and sounds the exact same as usual
