And perhaps because of this I was more perceptive of how "egocentric" he was. I mean, this is not a 'talk show' but it felt wrong for him to keep treading the conversation about himself rather than on Dodie, who had genuinely something to promote and deserves all the praise - or at least the time and consideration for her music to be talked about.
I dunno, I kind of think that's the whole point of it, it's meant to be obnoxious like what people assume YouTubers to be like, something something meta something. A veiled commentary on how things are so self-centred nowadays and people only wanna talk about themselves/promote themselves. If it's even that deep, I dunno, that's just the vibe I get.

Dan's interview response about Phil is simultaneously adorable and absolutely nonsensical. Buddy, those aren't full sentences. I don't even think they're full thoughts? And yet, they're unbelievably romantic.

my theory is he's pulling a robert pattinson in interviews that ask about phil now cuz hes running out of shit to say (not that saying nonsensical shit about being a tortoise with your Bestie is the same as fully fabricating a story about the circus but its the same energy imo)

I absolutely love Dodie so was very hyped to see her as a guest on DD. I do agree that for a lot of it, it was her sitting and being audience to Dan and his OTT act. I loved the song and when she had the glittery headband and sunglasses on. The Yamaha sounds were indeed major flashbacks to Y9 music, pissing about and getting threatened with detention for not taking 'hymn writing' seriously (catholic school am I right ladies) lol.

Also interested if it will just be Phil hosting xmas or the both of them. We probs won't find out or if we do it'll be Phil hosting himself. Either way, he's so grown up! I could never...

I'm eagerly awaiting the next AP vid, it seems like forever since the last one now haha!

Sorry, is there a prettier way to link this?

The interviewer is either a very thorough researcher or a phannie. I felt like it was unprofessional for her to say Dan’s answer about Phil was “so sweet”. I get so stressed whenever interviewers ask him about Phil or his relationship status.

She did ask some questions I had debated asking for my one question in my Q & A, so that made me happy.

Full disclosure: I was gohomohowell/relatablemood on here years ago, I just forgot my login. I did want to apologise for being messy back then - I was still v young and in denial of my ASD.

So, I wanted to get some opinions on something that's been bothering me. After reading through the transcript for Dan's show, as well as watching some of his videos, I've noticed a reoccurring bit on "dick good, ew boobs/vagina". I don't have much of an opinion on genital preference, however, it does rub me the wrong way when he presents liking dick as inherently gay, which isn't inclusive of trans men. It's just disappointing when he claims to be an ally to the trans community.

Dan announced that Viewers Pick My Outfits will be coming this weekend at the Q&A yesterday!
Trying to not get too excited, I really hope it's the in the same style as Phil's versions but it might just be a Dystopia Daily segment.

I'm tentatively ready for the VPMO video but also kind of afraid it's just gonna be Dan shitting on a video Phil made that we loved and doing it all ironically. I guess I'm taking the stance that I want zero expectations going in so that maybe I'll be positively surprised when it actually isn't as bad as I'm fearing? I just love VPMO so much and I want it to have some of that fun lightness.

Could he have said 'editing this weekend', rather than 'publishing'? :(
I was also hoping his head was in a American time zone, but I guess in Monday for you too now, isn't?

Maybe he meant next weekend. Or he just doesn't know what day of the week it is.

In the meantime, there was a tweet from Phil.
And a cursed Instastory.

Can you believe that it's the last week of the American leg of the tour? It feels simultaneously like he's been away for two weeks and 5 months

I wonder if he'll do another live stream before he goes back, or if we'll maybe (excuse the clownery) get a joint one back in London?

I do get that the whole reluctant youtuber, disliking an overly invested audience, doesn't really want to be doing this attitude is now his thing, but if you take out the intro and the last 30 seconds, it felt so much like a classic D&P video. The moments when the persona kind of dropped and he's just laughing really hard made the video.

ALL IS FORGIVEN, maybe it's because I had rock bottom expectations but I *really* loved that. So many parts I'm definitely gonna be rewatching!!

Hi! I have not been active on here for a good while. But I'm itching to talk about dnp stuff again after I saw Dan's show a week ago and have just been feeling so fond of him ever since :') Seeing him in person was such a strange feeling! (I didn't do a meet and greet because I am shy, but I sat 11 rows back from the stage and the first moment he came on stage was just such a weird feeling of wow this guy I've been watching on youtube for a decade is an actual person who really exists?!) Anyway, the show was a lot of fun and I am glad I got a ticket. I was perhaps a little hesitant going into the show because Dan's edgy introspection is sometimes a bit much for me, but the show was very funny and good.


re: the outfits video: I loved it so much! The Phil versions are favorites of mine, and this did not disappoint. I loved watching Phil fail terribly at throwing clothes (idk if I would have trusted him throwing things at me like that, lol). The last outfit made me almost cry-laugh, especially when he turned around! I haven't loved all of Dan's recent content, but this felt so much like old-school dnp content that I know I'll be coming back to watch it :)

I am down for D&P joint videos being rare if every new one reaches new Peak Gay levels because they are no longer containing themselves

All expectations have been exceeded! Granted, they weren't high, but I loved this video. Definitely rewatching now.

I’m really hoping for maybe another mukbang with Phil after the American leg of the tour. It would be such a great highly viewed video to post in December during Peak Season (remember those vids Phil hosted for Peak Season?)

VPMO - I thought it was funny on one of the tweets or something it was called Viewers Buy Dan’s Outfits. I mean we are paying for them in a roundabout way. What was up with Dan flashing the D? He sure looked good in most of those outfits. I didn’t like the sexy banker suit, but most of the rest were pretty good. I do like him in a wider leg pant.

The video was fantastic and I don't remember the last time I laughed this much at a dnp video! I'm side eying phil for not picking at least one actually good outfit, but I'm happy about the number of skirts.

And we got the origin story for the Shrek slut shirt, I wonder what else he kept.

Anthony was spotted at dans LA show and he seems to be alluding to a collab coming, I'm looking forward to that!

that video was incredible, i loved every second!

dan seriously pulls off skirts, he should include them in his wardrobe permanently, in my humble opinion :garbage:

some past phannie hysteria is welling up in me (i apologise) and i'm trying to decode what dan says at 2:15 (when phil throws the first batch of clothes at him). it sounds awfully like "[this was] the first relationship in your life" (he's admonishing phil after the 'twink' shade line - which was hilarious btw :lol: )

Edit: it's actually just before phil throws a coat hanger at him, my apologies

I died at the twink shade! :rofl: :rofl: Dan looked so insulted :lol: :lol:

I loved this video and have been rewatching it, but I am surprise how long engagements (comments) and views are, almost 22 hours later? Is it the algorithm's fault? :? or the normal performance now - which still surprises me because this video is GOLD

He looks amazing in the sexy bank outfit and as Daveeee.
