Ep. 214 Premium - The Psychological Deep Drive of Aimen Gamin [VIDEO]

I feel like a crazy person, but I found the bright light comforting

Legendary double feature with the Donut Episode

@45:50 aimen im sorry bro get your eyes checked what

GEORG IS MY FAVORITE THING EVER

Came for the D&D, but stayed for this. What a masterpiece YO

William Angen

I actually really enjoyed this episode. It was interesting to see how everyone argued and tried to understand each other's perspective.

HawkNinjaMaster

Z wave light switch

Joey Cronin

Literally imagine this argument at any other office ever slime and Nick would be escorted out of the building by security cause they don't work there before the argument could even happen 😂

Sspyca

Them explaining to Aiden is how i imagine they’re going to have to teach ai about social interaction in the future

Nef Ramos

i definitely felt that there was a change in what nick brought to the records around episode 100 (when the nick is a misogynist joke was at its peak). nick started taking bigger swings and would hit these special few jokes every ep that i thought were truly spectacular (awesome sour ideas)! i definitely thought what he brought to the convo before that was cool/interesting but there was a barrier to me understanding what nick wanted out of the yard both comedically and more structurally. i think the crazy thing about the lights debate is that the division of labor in the office had nick take care of lighting, yes for the yard, but also for the broader office environment. but aiden doesnt really interact with nick as someone with some authority on the subject (doesnt try to find a compromise through him even though its ostensibly nick’s job), doesnt treat nick as someone with knowledge about this problem (more of a compromise between authority and the next point), and doesnt willingly consider nick as someone that cares deeply about the lighting in the office (instead aiden repeatedly decides to cut through the effort of setting up the ambient lights with a fluorescent axe). even when this idea of nick as ‘the say on lighting’ takes a more solid shape in the conversational flow it slowly gets danced around in a somewhat annoying/dismissive manner (at least for me). obviously the whole discussion got to points that crossed the yard’s usual self-regulation and presentation, so I apologize if my comment reads as a little too unnecessary to pile on, i was just confused why nick was getting so much backlash for this particular hyped up point of contention, it reads as bizarrely unempathetic behavior given what transpired in the ep.

ogrefucker on soundcloud

shittt lights are bright. i lost the light of my life last january. what pants brand is Aiden wearing? they are super sick !

Jesse Cain

Why are the comments so unhinged? Anyway whoever decided to add the audience noises during the Lights segment is a genius banger ep

Cody Plymyer

the bots agreeing with adin is actually more funny than the ep

kenny le

Not that serious

Gilb0

Exactly, it is a work environment and it does not matter how many people like or dislike the lights. If someone needs the lights on to do their job than the lights get turned on and there's no emotional responsibility to make sure everyone is happy about it or that they get turned back off for the vibe or whatever

ThebesNutsHaGotem

Yeah, bad faith arguing from Nick the entire time

ThebesNutsHaGotem

Wrong actually. Light doesnt show up on camera because it’s not physical

Aidan .

Do absolutely none of you understand how camera lighting and exposure works? When you expose for low light and turn normal lights on it will be overexposed, that's what you're commenting on at 45 minutes. Aiden is still right and y'all are still falling for Nick's gaslighting.

J

Yeah Nick gaslighting him is what is keeping the argument in limbo I agree.

J

Except in this situation that would clearly be Nick playing the music and Aiden is the bus driver telling him to turn it off and Nick is gaslighting him about it saying everyone loves the music.

J

like generally speaking nick arguing for 40 minutes about those overhead lights is valid. if i had the option i would also gaslight my best friend into thinking everyone hates him if it means i don’t have to sit under them at work

Potowama

Oh my godddddddddd kill me

Eden AR

kelboner

Braiden Owen

not at all what happened

Eli

"I think it's 43 minutes" slime what the fuck

Milk

Actually a pretty healthy conversation about a pretty dumb topic, solid EP

Pierce Obrien

This was my thought the whole time. If they got Aiden a reading light and he refused to use it, then they'd be completely right here.

Kyle S

Austin Maile

thank god for time stamps. I care as much about the lights as I do about league

fruite

exactly. Why not just ask

Spoon

no but genuinely i want nick suspended for an episode for this. something needs to be done.

Alexandra

i’ve listened to the pod since the start but just joined the patreon this month. amazing timing on my part!

Alexandra

we need ludwig back

Daniel Zhang

I feel like this is an issue that’s unique to a company with a lot of employees who are/were friends before and outside of the job. Cuz at any other company the owner or manager would just say “this is how the lights will be” and nothing would happen unless every single worker spoke up. You guys could also just do “homophobic lights” between 8-5 PM to keep a professional line and then the “vibe lights” afterwards idk bro this is insane for an episode topic 😅

Alejandro Lopez Ovalle

For some guys who constantly tell people on their advice show to "just communicate", it's insane that they can't just ask Aimen, "yo can I switch the lights to dim" when they're tryna catch a vibe at work.

Zack Schy

Okay, what’s crazy is that Nick and his beautiful mother created the problem. But are annoyed at Aiden for not creating the solution. Sure they give the solution, but Nick should just go out and get him the reading lamp if it’s that big of a deal.

Hunter DePretto

Better advice episode than the advice show

misterthezeem

It's so obvious Aiden is correct, and willing to work with the issue. But they just can't concede anything because its Aiden lmao.

Dankesse

$20 at an ikea would fix everything

outby16

please stop engaging with the dr mario guy 😭😭😭

NOOO

imagine if they had a dungeon master for this conversation tho and they were rolling for initiative and constitution saves

Taro

can someone please cast a hex on these guys

dj khaled

Aimen forcing the 4 soft light voters to wear an arm band so he knows when they’re in the room.

Reen

So after watching the ep and scrolling all the comment argument points, Aiden is probably technically right on the ‘work lighting for a workspace’ argument, but the actual office lighting we saw was fucking crazy bright and awful. Moreover, Aiden has a tendency not to go full ‘me before thee’ but definitely not to consider the needs of the many first or very much at all (in superficial arguments, I don’t doubt his moral compass lol). It’s very American of him, he just kinda goes ‘it’s my right so I’m gonna do it’ even when it’s not the considerate choice. That really takes the wind out of the sails of his argument here, it sounds more like it’s becoming a matter of righteousness and spite than an actual matter of practicality. A lamp solves everything, glasses would probably solve a lot. Also I think just in general they should buy softer bulbs for the overhead lights. Personally, I would never in a million years stand up and go turn on the lights when I know at least a couple people, if not everyone present in the room hates them, let alone regularly. I’d buy a freaking desk lamp.

Kenzie M

the lights are insanely bright and low in his defense

Make3333

if you watch the video of their office, the lights are stupidly bright

Make3333

yeah no this episode fucks idk what the fuss was about

Rowan

This was a fun episode and I mean that legitimately

Garrett Storm

thank you archie for making these 40 minutes more bearable with the editing

lorenzo

the only correct take

Caspian Bradford

There’s no way I can have any sort of input on this without projecting, so it doesn’t even feel fun to have input. I’d rather not have any more episodes like this.

Ismael

i think ludwig should've brought aiden his matcha donut

Manoo

ludwigless episodes are almost always basically one topic for the whole episode

steezfm

I liked this episode because what I'm paying for is a glimpse into friendship and isn't friendship little arguments?

Fae Petersen

I dont think ive ever skipped 50+% of an episode that i paid for before. feels bad man

Elvis

a 40 minute argument i payed to listen to could have been avoided by someone asking aiden to say something when hes changing the lights

Kaleb DeMuth

Nick: Presents valid point Aiden: Disagrees with invalid point Nick: Points out invalidation to Aiden Aiden: Argues against what he just said

ProjectShady

We’re paying for an off air argument 😭😭

Jared Costilow

Maybe who cares about my opinion, but I think this ep is awesome; then again I am a psycho

JT Rebel

the eps not that bad if you skip most of the middle

Yv

The perfect American employee can gaslight like Nick and switch-up as fast as Slime

tissue_b0x

Thank you for bring up the donut. One of the craziest takes

Why why

It's just common courtesy to let people know you're changing the lights real quick. Not unreasonable to need them on for a while when you need it for work, even with a 10-1 split. Just let your coworkers know and change them back. How did it grow to this large of an issue 💀

tybahza

the edit is awesome

Mettle Dawn

The only thing I hate more than those lights is the horde of AI techbro finance workers bitching about people not liking harsh lighting LMAO

tybahza

Holy shit that was a snooze

Bobby

my head hurts from just the VIDEO of the lights

avery blalock

On the 25ish minute mark a more genuine comparison is Aiden is the Office Manager, second to the owner. Slime is the owners son and Nick is the Contracted IT guy who comes in often to work on the system.

10 Tails

I’ve never felt the need to comment on a video ever. But this argument is insane. First off, If the light is over 8k then Nick and slime are valid. But if not, Aiden wins. It’s an office where people work and anyone who doesn’t actually work there doesn’t have a valid opinion in the slightest. It’s to work not to vibe. It’s very ironic that the two people who don’t work there have such a strong opinion on what light is on in the WORK area. Sincerely, 26 year old truck driver

10 Tails

for the eyesight in the dark my vison is around 15 out of 20 and i am very comfortable driving in the morning without my glasses and I literally cant drive at night without my glasses so you should check your eyes out

goodguy the

I LOVED this episode!! Definitely not your worst.

Carina Miller

I think they're talking about him plugging merch after the Streamer Games? There's a video called "the truth about my fight with Aimen" on the Ludwin channel and I think that's it.

Triplicata

Nick: It’s 10-1, use the softer lights! Also Nick: Oh so the indifferent opinions are on YOUR side? Masterclass in gaslighting throughout the entire lighting conflict

I'm Soraaa

does anyone know what video is referenced at 2:50 about a merch ad read?

Phanatic

No the fuck we don't do not speak for us

rina krebs

These lights had better be blinding UV lamps that turn everyone underneath them into Spongebob at Sandy's house the way Nick and Slime are talking about them

Aiden Howatson

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THOSE LIGHTS

Zach Setzer

Aiden>>>>

Josh Anguiano

Nickafy, word of the day, that’s all

BillyJohnson690

They spent a lot of time talking about the basic concepts of politeness and manners. It isn't polite to turn on a big huge light in a room of people without first asking or alerting. It is crazy and hilarious.

Gerzie

Why does nick think of Vietnamese people as animals he's masagonistic and racist that's crazy

Jacob Tower

Aiden is just so completely 100% right in this moment. There does not need to be a discussion about it. It’s a fucking OFFICE. Let the man work in relative daylight. Batshit behavior by Nick.

Collin

I was getting stressed until I heard the first crowd noise, fire

Snailmix

i love how the patreon ep starts the same exact way as the main one

Austin Green

Looking forward to the next episode

Will

Love the crowd noises 🤣🤣

Riley Naehu

I was such a big Aiden defender until those lights came on

David Gilbert

I thought Aiden was right for most of the episode until minute 46 and now I get they're points so much more

Kamerin McCall

Anyone who has ever chosen to kill ludwig, this is what you asked for

PotatoSnatcher

The problem aidens mad at is what he "needs" is being superseded in his eyes by something a couple other people "want" but if youre not turning them back on after youre done which would prove an even bigger point in your passive war then you're chopped huzz

Magnum Bork

Please god no.

Mynameisrow

Dude, shut the fuck up.

Mynameisrow

yeah the first 41 minutes were straight ass but the rest of the ep is a nice reflection at least

Jay-P

i was on aidens side from day 1 until nick turned on those same lights in the pod room that is just too much

FlamingOranges

Maybe I’m crazy, but I think if Aiden is the one working there and others come there mostly to play videogames and fuck around then he can do whatever he wants with the lights. Crazy 2v1 gaslighting going on here 😂

Turner

I was on Aiden's side so strongly on this for weeks; he's doing work, he has to read physical mail, there's not a crazy strong wave of opinion like Nick was arguing before. It all seemed fair and reasonable, to a degree (outside of the instance when he just turned the lights over just because)- until minute 46. Oh my god, Aiden. Oh my god... Just irredeemable. I hope you do need glasses and it's all put to rest after that. Or at least the reading light helps. Sorry I doubted you, Nick

Jason Zasserr

Loved the ep. Lol my bar has gotten low

Konstantinos Panagiotopoulos

this is also not something you put on a paid podcast

Make3333

it looks what

Sunny

watching this after the donut episode, i dont think i can handle this much gaslighting in a single day

Sunny

i may have shed a tear at the end

Darcy

this was somehow against all odds a top 3 primo

Darcy

I almost wasted over an hour of my life. Luckily main and Patreon had time stamps.

Caleb Conner

i came here to say that the goatse candy is my favorite candy and i forgot about it until you guys brought it up, thanks

Yv

We really paid for this

Dylan Rexrode

Its not just about the work setting. It was them voicing out that he was being inconsiderate to others when he does it and him becoming defensive about it. It doesn't matter if it was a minority of people that didn't like the lights, its still inconsiderate to just turn them on without saying anything and it comes off as petty and on purpose because Aiden is a calculated person. It comes off as extremely selfish. The deeper problem is that Aiden gets defensive when he has moments that appear to be inconsiderate. It's like ya'll did not listen whatsoever...

Donovan Dragon

nick is effortlessly annoying

Clay Hatcher

Couldn’t yall do this off the podcast lmao

Andrew Foster

I didn’t think it was possible but Aiden won

Dylan Rexrode

Please shut the fuck up about the lights - Aiden is obviously right - you guys are capable of better content than this

Greg Bateman

Holy god nick was so annoying this episode, also rlly wrong

Owen

Banger ep but why is there a laugh track in the background 😂😂

Justen Dostal

Aiden 100% just needs glasses

Alex Hamilton

How the hell is this character studying when this is a completely normal thing to do in a work setting u guys are just weird

Owen

Slime and Nick are so unemployed hoooooly

Mario Perez

comedy compilations, i call on you. give us what we want

Qchecker 33

I was out til Aimen took his dick out

Antonio quintero

My favorite episode to date

Cody Hoerner

I just want a compilation of the entire lights saga, ending with this episode, so that I can show my neurodivergent, psych major younger brother. He's basically a straight, libertarian aiden, and I think this would be really helpful or at least insightful for him.

Cody Hoerner

I feel the need to say this after watching this show for so long. I don’t understand why Aiden always feels like selfishly taking whatever he wants whenever he wants is ALWAYS justified in his mind as basically receiving what he thinks he deserves because he perceives that everyone else has it better than him? That’s the only reason I can think of to consistently have the audacity to go against the majority the way he does. If you’re reading this Aiden, you live in a collective of energies with other people and you seemingly have no respect for that reality or for the people around you when you do things like turn the lights on. It’s a simple act but actions speak loudly

Daniel Lopez

as a psych major i absolutely loved this (and the matcha donut) episode! like slime said, it's very interesting to see 3 different approaches to the same problem & i enjoyed every second of it :D

tsugoth

If I were Aiden after Nick kept bitching about the overhead lights being on after the compromise of them being on when needed. I would have had them removed and announced that I removed them because Nick wouldn't stop bitching about the overheads even though the vibe lights were on most of the time.

ItsReidgd

The argument seems to be widening from both ends. Becoming more extreme over time lol although I guess thats just the nature of making it a podcast topic Idk the layout of the space but why is it set up in a way where the people who are working are in the same room as the people who aren't working? I'd probably get pretty distracted working like that.

AndrewVT

Man, a lot to unpack here. One could argue Slime and Nick's need for softer lighting is a byproduct of psychosomatic ED issues. And of course Aimen wanting brighter lights is clearly tied to his pro-nordic beliefs. It seems like Ludwig's absence clearly creates a vacuum for the "alpha" figure of the group leading to higher tensions amongst the other members. I think there's a lot of benefit to these issues being studied further by professionals

Will

aiden is just so right

lainey

who thought this would be watchable wtf

Make3333

People that think this argument was really about the lights 💀 this was an excellent display of communicating through issues between friends in order to learn about each other and their perspective. They kept dancing around the topic but I’m glad they finally confronted him about his behavior and him explaining where he’s coming from and them validating his feelings but explaining their feelings regarding it.

Donovan Dragon

love this

I truly believe Aiden needs glasses and they would solve everything. Embrace the frames Aiden

Great ep aiden dub

Jeffrey Yang

the divide between lighting argument haters and enjoyers is amazing, we also need to see the lighting

ethanthekeed

Make an episode like this again and I promise I’ll kms

G C

They need tierlists to hold the show together without Ludwig

Miles

I love how without Ludwig there's only like 7segments in this pod

REAPERKING

I love lamp

Brian McCandless

john smith

Andrew Uddin

best episode of all time. I took one (1) semester of psychology

WBiddy

Banger ep that’ll age like fine wine

Nick Rich

This arguement is insane. Ask him if you can turn the lights off in the moment and I am almost certain he would say sure. Saying nothing and expecting him to just figure it out and then being mad he doesn't is absolute insanity

John Smith

the reddit made this seem like the episode would put me to sleep while driving

asouo

Please just use my patreon money to get a reading lamp 😭

Tylah Hexen

It’s crazy this is even an argument. The gaslighting of Aiden is so crazy especially coming from someone who doesn’t work there. “I’m here everyday too” then leave? Why would someone need to show remorse about wanting light while they do their work lmao. Infuriating to listen to

Thomas Rodriguez

Was wondering if I was the only one that turned the ep off from annoyance that it kept going lmao

Harrison

Love him to death, but Aiden the type of guy to hop on the bus with a Bluetooth speaker, with terrible, clipping, DnB playing. Then act surprised when people would prefer to listen to terrible bus sounds the whole time

Sneakyo13

Seeing the posts about this ep made me think it would be insane, this is just really funny

Ginger Jotunn

Crazy people complained about this, banger ep

Gonzo

i feel like people who dont understand why this bit is going for longer than normal are missing what nick said during this episode. He was not a fan of aiden saying because you are not employed here you dont get to say/want the lights to be changed. He even said snarkily that "I did work here, i put in the work designing the office". That really is what is holding this argument in a limbo.

eleonar crimson

hear me out: the next 5 premium episodes are EXACTLY like this so we weed out all of the annoying people who feel the need to complain so much in the comments lmao

Logan Morrison

idk, i saw the lights on twitter and ngl i switched from being on aiden's side to nick's get that man a desk lamp

snoiny

Chad Aimen who uses something when needed. I can’t get past the idea of just asking “yo, can I turn these off or you working?” When walking into the office if the overhead lights are on. Nick and slime legit are giving shy as fuck coworkers who can’t speak up for themselves. As a student in grad school to become a therapist, I’m gonna diagnose nick and slime with fucking schizophrenia with how insane y’all are

Cooper

I liked the in depth analysis

Dylan Croft

I am on team Aiden here guys. As much as I am a fan of chill lighting, you guys have no idea what you are talking about. Even as a gamer myself who loves sitting in the dark... who also has a full time job and does music too on the side. GIVE AIDEN HIS LIGHT TO DO HIS REAL WORK. Also Nick is being dishonest, he did present it as if everyone is on his side and agrees with him 10000%. He did shift the goalpost to meet him in the middle but that is how he presented it for so long haha. I do think there was a lot of healthy discussion that came out of a ridiculous discussion of an argument perpetuated by people not working against people actually working though. And while in a broad out of context discussion Nick and Slime's point stands, in the working environment, Aiden's point is much stronger.

Gabe

Aiden is 100% correct, right?

Michael LaManna

Wow

Brandon

First episode I actually couldn't finish, what are we doing here guys

Callahan McGinty

Glad this is the most upvoted comment i hope he sees it

Calvin Fullerton

This episode sucks and aiden is right. They are a bunch of man children who are used to having no lights on because gamers and when they actually get to a work environment they can't hang lmao.

Ernesto Gutierrez

By far the worst thing about this stupid discussion is the fact that they keep arguing past eachother. Aiden wants lighting that allows him to do his job in his office, Nick simply likes the chill lights more. I genuinely don't understand how this is even a discussion to begin with, as Aiden is so clearly right and Nick's opinion is so clearly irrelevant.

SrirachaGamer

Solution: no communal lights, everyone must get a personal desk lamp, head lamp, light strips, etc.

dust

Why doesn't aiden just get a little desk lamp

Jordan Borromeo

this is why we can't pick Ludwig to get rid of, it would turn into a pod about trinkets and overhead lights

bluestofblues

Loool! I was thinking about that, too. xD

Courtney J

Yes! This is my takeaway as well.

Courtney J

I'm pretty sure this episode is a great litmus test for the Yard fans to see a) who actually works b) how old/mature someone is c) who's parasocial

Byron

Lmao this episode is just a reddit shitpost

Gingerthoughtzz

This one is not nearly as bad as the matcha doughnut or the dogs in coffee shops argument

Kanen

This whole lights debate was honestly just a great example of how to navigate disagreements in a healthy way, engage in productive thought exercises, and learn how to better communicate with your loved ones by understanding their style of communication and clarifying everyone’s perspective/feelings instead of just assuming. Good shit, this is exactly why I happily give y’all my money.

ninjamuffin99

If this amount of light is a problem for nick then no wonder nick is so pale

linus woodrow cheng

Love this comment and sentiment.💗

Courtney J

Guy wants to do work in his office and 2 non employees crucify him for it

Truck Ford

Yeah, I agree on continuing the episode. Based on some of the stuff I saw pop up on reddit before I had a chance to watch/listen to the episodes I was expecting this to be awful but it's really not. Especially when some people can let their emotions get the best of them, they kept recentering themselves or each other which kept it from escalating and stuck through the conversation. I guess maybe younger or less emotionally educated people could see this as an awful argument but I agree with you that it was constructive and between friends who are allowed to disagree or not always get along swimmingly all the time. The fact they're able to have conversations like these with each other instead of just blowing up, shutting down, and walking away says a lot and in my personal life I prefer friends who can ride through the not so fun shit with me and not just around or only invested in the easy/fun things.

Courtney J

Go to 45:35 before leaving a comment about your thoughts on the lighting

William Ryan

Peak lawnmower content. Aiden pls just buy a desk lamp and keep being right for4ver king. Nick on his 547th time of being a chronic Californian and not actually on island time.

Norboar

And all while Aiden is there trying to do work.... If Aiden can respect the fact most people prefer the softer lights and only uses the brighter ones when needed for work then the others should respect the times he needs them on for work. I feel like Aiden was made aware and cared enough about everyone else to look into it and change his habits to respect the others and some of the others are refusing to meet him halfway. :/ I feel like I need to step in as a mom and teach them about sharing. If Aiden is there first and has the light on, the people coming in can simply ask if they can turn it off if he's done with them or if he still needs them instead of being upset they're on in the first place the second you enter the room. This is a shared space between work office space and fun time space and should go both ways respectively. I feel Aiden has already made strides in the right direction and instead of meeting him halfway they keep shifting the goal post. But I'm only a bystander to all of this. I'm not there or involved and all I know is what I've heard on the pod so that's all I can comment on. What's crazy is I HATE overhead lights and never use them in my own home so I totally get the side that doesn't like them so it's crazy it's gone as far as it has to where I'm siding with the one that wants them on xD but I am just a neutral unbiased outsider to all of this that ultimately has zero involvement. Just sharing my thoughts, takeaways, opinions, etc. that sparked when reading your comment 🫶

Courtney J

Also when slime dinked 43 minutes. that was insane.

Dimst

Worst EP of the yard easily. Worse than donuts, worse than aiden and Ludwig arguing about mapslop, worse than the 3 episode debate about who's more popular between the Pope and trump

Jepp

I usually listen to the pod audio only, but I am glad I watched this one

Cloudly

what about a lamp for aiden’s desk

ClockworkOwen

Get lamp man. :) Cute hip techy little desk lamp. take almost no desk space and controls your space without disrupting others. since others dont need the light. without doubt will still get razz, but it not bother other people.

Dimst

I ACTUALLY LIKE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ON THE SET. it looks sunny

2sub

I can't believe I spent 2episodes listening to the lights argument today .. and didn't lose interest

Zachariah Mirza

honestly team aiden throughout, but at 45 min holy shit those lights are blinding

arguably one of the most interesting eps of the patreon eps to date

Nick sounds INSUFFERABLE to argue with

Daniel Bujold

I stand with Aiden with this one

Ryan Nogueira

I can't wait for next week when Ludwig rips into them. The trinkets segment wasn't even bad and he did.

Gintas

"the animals are leaving" i immediately just thought of the cod edit LOL I didnt even realize how it sounded at first

Collin Brandau

I would like one (1) dollar back for this episode

YAGTNH

Can’t believe the resolution was making Aiden do a land acknowledgment every time before turning on the lights

Koazeee

Idk man, you’re a grown adult working at a company and you’re upset someone turned the lights on? Why not a simple “Yo Aiden turn those off once you’re done”, Instead of the weird looking around and silently being upset. Aiden can’t read people’s mind to know they prefer it off and once a poll was made he started being more conscious about turning on the lights people like unless he’s alone which is valid. - holy fuck matcha donut was insane.

IzPasta

Jesus Christ this is horrifying to see only 7 minutes in

365 dollars over your lifetime lmfao

The Yard

you have no idea what the environment is like day to day, the coo plays counter strikes 4 hours a day

i think you should find the confidence to be able to express yourself without emojis

The Yard

no

Nicholas Yingling

its not a co op

The Yard

The fact that there are as many comments as there are likes lol

NickJ

LMAO

Meeph Ez

Bro I started doing the same for my replays of Smash and its crazy how helpful it is to view yourself from a 3rd party perspective

Jason Queen

I just looked at the chapter timestamps and the length between 3 and 4 is fucked up

Jason Queen

Yes, I love psychology, this was the most engaged I’ve been watching an episode ever💀

Jacob Wolosik

I never understood why people didn’t like slime until now

Hutch Hyde

Nick is insufferable he constantly changes his argument too whatever will make Aiden look the least reasonable

Cole

This was hilarious

Raice Straub

This is definitely the worst episode.

Ryan Samaniego

They finally.made a worse episode than the basketball argument one.

butler18

I have my masters in social work and I’m pretty sure this is just cementing Aiden and slime’s autism diagnoses. “Strong sense of justice”, “rigid thinking” and “rules and routines”. Those are terrorist lights. I think they’re the same 10,000 kelvin walmart psychosis lights actually

surma

This is such a stupid episode and I love it

William Angen

I wish I pirated this one

Adrian

I am 1000% with Aiden on this one.

Zeno

Yeah Aiden just needs to get up and turn off the damn lights when he's done lol

Fletcher

i hadn’t thought of the matcha donut episode in so long…

brandog

Commenting to show my support for the dim lights.

Patters

Nick calling Aiden selfish for needing the lights a certain way, but not recognizing that them being so stubborn about the cozy lights thus inconveniencing Aiden is also extremely selfish. And to yell at him for doing so as well.

Max

I totally relate to nick’s comment on vod reviewing themselves. I realize I do this for my d&d sessions. I vod review to recognize things I need to do better as the DM

GreyGrayson

Since you asked for psyche people to chime in, I think it's just a courtesy thing. If someone is changing the environment with multiple people in it abruptly it's respectful to warn people before hand, and shift it back to the status quo when you're done. It's also respectful to acknowledge if you're in the space on your own and someone new comes in and you know they prefer the lights another way to acknowledge them and go "hey you can switch the lights if you want I don't need them like this" it's just always communication to remain respectful. This was a really fun episode by the way, loved the psychological deep dive into all of you as a psych person that was super fun to listen to.

The light fascist aiden hates freedom

45:35 that lighting is diabolical

Jeff G

aiden not getting a lamp is so fucking insane lmao

Richard Laszcz

turning the lights on is aura loss

emi

It feels like I’ve spent hours listening to this argument

Liana

Ep was good but this was Nicks worst bit

Hash

Announcing in some way you're turning the lights on is polite because lights being turned on suddenly can be an uncomfortable sensation. If "enjoying lighting of room and then guy shows up and turns on big harsh light" wasn't a universal annoying experience that everyone has been trained to reluctantly accept, then Aiden would be getting more pushback. Also this a great episode and the haters wish they could ponder the mundane this deeply.

Shawn W

Look out, Bully Nick is on the prowl

Will Rozak

Definitely on Aiden's side, but why doesnt he realise the cool aura of turning on a nice desk lamp to read letters like in a noir film.

Drey Dilley

100% you cant make anything of "indecisive" votes when the person asking is your senior in the workplace.

inflatablepenguin

The studio audience 🧑🏽‍🍳

DeeKayJay

this was my thought too, with my astigmatism it can really fuck my eyes up when light gets changed suddenly without me expecting it.

inflatablepenguin

3 adults spend several hours of their life arguing over lights.

Bilbo Fraggins

Respectfully what the actual fuck what this episode

Annavayy

It's just crazy he won't get a desk lamp

Tyler Pierce

Guy that can’t read the room complaining about the room, the trans community stands with Nick and the office on this one

Bridgette

the sound effects go so hard during the episode need this every time

Oden Tofte

Okay ultimately I think both the original criticism of Aiden, and his justification is fine. Buuut if you're going to go into the psychoanalysis space I think you have to do it from the lens of being impartial to the original debate imo. If you just pivot from criticism of someones behaviour with a smug tone to a deep analysis of that persons behaviour it feels weaponized to win the argument and doesnt pass the aita check even if you are right. I think the breakdown and investigation of why people act the way they do, is very interesting and engaging and you guys are incredible communicators, the resolution was productive to give Aiden strats to address his needs in a more personable way. Its a good ep as an exploration of communication in friendships and the ironic laugh track is fitting. Thank you for sharing, The Ill mind of aimen gamin' 5. I cant wait to go watch the main ep and lighten the vibe with a different topic of conversation..

Tasha

Okay I just saw the twitter video. Aiden is exaggerating a bit I think.

George Stathoris

I don't think changing the lights is crazy especially when It has use, turning them back off would be crazy because aiden turned them off because he needs them. Also it's totally understandable aimen prefers the overhead lights because it's an office, a workplace, they make you more efficient you don't want to be in Mahalo when grinding. Reading light is crazy

omelet

Dim yellowish lights are better for your eyes when you look at a screen for a long time. Also we, the audience, need to know how low the light actually is because if it's at the level of their podcast studio you can easily still read it I think. Anyway, I wish slime would share what he thinks about the new mgs3 remake and if he's gonna play it because I remember he really likes the MGS games.

George Stathoris

i think the company should provide the desk lamp

spella!

can't wait for the windows open/closed debate ep in the upcoming winter season

Tan G

I think even if you prefer the chill mahalo lights that its acknowledgeable that brighter lights are more conducive to a productive work environment to some degree. Theres a reason its the standard. or maybe im smokin balls and should die, but i think theres more to this argument than which we as individuals would prefer. what you want vs what you need type beat. yet aiden somehow still remains to be more absurd, even though i agree that turning on the lights is chill. hes just gotta admit that he's owned then turn the lights on. too much pushback when ur clearly owned here.

Max

The most level headed and introspective comment in the entire comment section, well done Gabriel

Biggest Doorknob

Checking the time being only 20 minutes in to a 40 minute argument segment is now my greatest fear, thanks for the PTSD The Yard

This argument should be the catalyst for them to have an autism test episode, lol

Brandon Dale

Working in a hospital IT office all day- the bright fluorescents are terrible. So, we dim our lights and If we need to see, we do have our own personal lamps we can turn on at our desk.

flowrence

Honestly loved this ep and think it would be so funny if the boys got a therapist on as a guest to mediate conversations like this

Logan Bearry

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode lol, wild to see the comments.

Christina Fazio

Yea fr these people act like they're not friends or sum

Thomas

Slime binking the 43 minutes call after that insane conversation was great

Matthew Wilkes

These comments are crazy lmao Shows that many people cant handle mature conversation and automatically assume its hateful/awkward arguing. Its a silly subject, they are smiling and laughing the majority of the time. Y'all need to chill.

allither

Not to jump on the bandwagon here, but def on the side of Aiden. Except for the reading light thing, he could definitely do that and all problem's are solved. I don't think Nick is being malicious or "a dick", I think he's just curious but he went about it in a way that sounds really mean to some people (check the comments). If you stopped watching because of the argument, I implore you to continue watching if it isn't going to trigger any trauma response. It's honestly a pretty good representation of how you can disagree, misunderstand, and argue with your friends AND still love them for who they are.

Porridge

I thought this was a comedy podcast

Fred Summerfield

Archie, bless you for sitting through this and thank you for adding the laugh track.

Virginia Engroff

the comments/reactions to this episode are more insane than the actual episode

Seth Winslow

Just buy Aimen a really nice reading light as a gift, an apology maybe

Devan

haha wow isnt it so le crazy that when someone is grilled for something they defend their decision like a normal human being? le aimen is le psycho xD

Jepp

This shit sucks

Turning the lights on bright is maybe the hardest I have laughed watching the show.

Kevin B

Parasocials are eating good this week.

Chris Cole

nick more like prick amiright

Ross Calderone

This was such a good episode just because of all the discourse that’s being had. Personally I don’t care about the lights thing, I don’t know these people or work in the same space as them but it’s so funny seeing everyone get up in arms about it.

Alex treib

Ok I finished it, it gets better. Nick is right when he says his progression each year has been to become less defensive. Also right that this is a bad episode to point that out

BG

I dont think everyone has to be so upset… they are all friends and have gone through much more than what we see so this is just a very real conversation that happens when emotions get pent up. Perhaps it was a bit awkward to listen to at times but they all have a say in whether something is uploaded… yall don’t actually know these people, lets not be quick to judge please❤️

Anna🍓Bridge

Shit this was awkward.

Brandon Caulfield

nick is being a dick. aimen is completely in the right. working in the dark sucks. it brings down productivity and makes you sleepy/slow. its and office work environment it needs to be well lit.

Jack Cassai

I don’t know if I have the strength required to endure an entire episode of this 😭 Edit: it gets good at 33ish minutes nvm

Ryan

hmm i wonder why none of the actual workers have a strong opinion that directly opposes their boss?? can't fathom a reason

sequoia boy

Yeah, it literally is just normal lighting, 45 minutes to find out they're just shadow gremlins

Mynameisrow

i think they should be asking aiden if they can turn off the lights when he’s actually working buddy is actually trying to focus and work

cjam world

Nick you’re wrong and stubborn, it’s clear you’re too mad about this. Let Aiden have his productive lights. I’ve seen every episode and have never had to stop watching 20 mins in before. I like Aiden more than ever after this bullshit. Context, Nick has always been my favorite

BG

we are overlooking the fact that slime and nick haven’t watched the solo aimen episode— this needs to be addressed immediately?? repent for ur sins

Tayla

I like how they have no real argument, so they just bring up an instance where Aiden was wrong (the tea)

Mynameisrow

its probably better to just skip a week than to put shit like this out

bigsleep

Are these filmed before or after the main ep?

Sydhxyfhdrvtgsh

(i still luv aimen)

SVZN77

Haha ,aiden saying he’d “buy more lights to add “ to the set up people like ( actively ruining mood lighting by adding more lights lol ) instead of buying a lamp is hilarious. I cant tell if this is real or satire

D.C

aiden is literally the Green River Killer

SVZN77

big fan of aidens pants in this ep tbh

vhattheheck

This is probably the only time I've seen Nick draw out an argument that wasn't because he was unequivocally right, or he had a punchline, he was just wrong, and it could have easily been ended 5 minutes after Aiden revealed the poll numbers, this is like when Slime stole a desk, and demanded that he be allowed to be there despite not working there, and admitting to being annoying to the people actively working, at a certain point, the only thing that matters is the work, and if you're messing with the work, then you just need to find somewhere better to hang out at

Mynameisrow

I never wanna hear about the lights again. Nick please repent for your relentless targeting of Aimen!

Ethan Provençal

If Nick & Aiden were a couple, I’d say this is a toxic relationship. Nick is finding any excuse to stay mad, while Aiden is trying to explain he concedes and understands

seeing the only remaining light bounce off slime's bald head when all the lights went out was like a religious experience

Ross

I was on Aiden's side until Nick switched the lights

t_jerm

great episode lmfao

Ross

need to go back and someone save my lazy ass the search which episode is macha donut?

Alex Ameneiros

turning it off when you no longer need it accomplishes the same thing without putting the need for action onto the person who feels wronged

Shaun Potter

An episode ripping on Aiden, what's this the yard dnd.

Norovar

Idk I kinda enjoyed this ep

Jonah Terry

Ive seen every main and bonus ep and have watched since day one, love you boys please don’t ever do this again

Vinny Addieg

My only thoughts on the light situation is that it's crazy that Aimen wouldn't say anything as he's turning on the lights. I feel like you'd say something just for the sake of letting people know there's going to be a change in the brightness. I have an astigmatism though so maybe I'm biased

Sean Mason

Lights aside.. I would love if the yard dnd kept going and got another campaign! I’ve been loving it so far.

Myriapoda03

By your logic Aiden is wrong then. He’s literally the only one in the office that wants the fluorescent lights on. There’s an abundantly clear majority against him lol.

Jason Kellogg

To be fair, the camera and color balance isnt set up for those lights so its prolly a lil worse in vid than irl

Aaron Kerper

Fluorescent lights are the bane of my existence. I think the core of the issue is that aiden would rather inconvenience the people who dislike it than spend a little extra money to elevate the workplace experience for everyone (himself included). As he said, the real solution is to get more warm lights to properly light the area. A reading light is a really easy stop gap solution though. Also, as someone who has responded to these kinds of surveys before, aiden is pretty much everyone’s boss. They all know he wants the lights on… there’s kind of a power dynamic there that i would hazard potentially skews the results into a more “indecisive” area lol.

Jason Kellogg

I really gotta stop giving these people money....it's an office space, if work can't be done because the lights are too dim, the lighting is bad, if Nick cares so much he should buy the fucking lamp for Aiden.

Allen Gray

memes aside this feels like a normal entertaining episode if you think the maccha donut episode was peak then this shouldn't be making you reconsider your patreon sub

Jacob Gutierrez

i wisi wish i could take away my sub money when they talk about the lights. work takes priority. LA DEGENS with their dogs and no lights ass motha fuckas lmao

Payton Broussard

Wait the fuckin Patreon is lights talk too what the fuck guys. But what about my Thursday afternoon drive home from work ritual 😔

Kritur

seeing the "skip to 42 min" was haunting

Caitlin Kolodi

i was 100% on Aimens side until i saw the lights you’ll see during the rapture

marleyreese3

It's an office space turn the lights on and quit bitching. Crazy anybody even cares at all when its a work space.

Justin

yeah i agree. Yard has never made me actually angry or annoyed listening until the lights argument. Nick and Slime are mostly just rage baiting Aiden and calling this a debate. The premo was more of an actual discussion instead of just poking aiden, but the experience altogether was terrible and i ended up fastforwarding and skipping (havent done before)

cone

Dude aiden is going to walk into the office and just magically have a monitor light installed and this convo will never be mentioned again

Sam

How is Aiden always ganged up when he's just objectively correct most of the time

Eris

give aiden a separate office or schedule dedicated reading time with a cutoff and an alert system so everyone knows

Jordan Wright

No that's actually it. If Slime or Nick gifted Aiden a reading light and he refused to use it then that would just be insane but if he uses it than it solves everything.

Byron

This episode felt like a season finale. Special shout out to the live studio audience that takes this episode from A tier to S tier. Btw I'm on Aiden's side because at a company the ability to do your work should be the highest priority over anything else...but... y'all make too much money to just not get a reading light

Byron

Do you remember which ep that argument was, Patreon or YouTube? I’ve been trying to find it for sooooo long

Emma

aiden is forever vindicated, it’s an office space. the status quo is for it to be well lit.

Art3m1s

This was the best episode

Thatguynoe

LMFAO the majora's mask countdown is hilarious. this week alone about 50 mins among main and premo dedicated to the lights argument

Manacmul

Banger ep

Jacob Morrison

Aiden is so fucking right here

Mark B

For those that voted indifference I wonder if that is indifference to whatever the default state is upon arrival and if a change of that state would be something that they would have an opinion on. Like I don’t care what it is, but don’t change it because that’s distracting.

Motetote

I think you might be reading to deep into this. If it wasn’t low stakes they presumably wouldn’t have published it?

Sóley Nótt

Seems to that people could simply say to Aiden ‘hey mind if I turn off the lights?’ And fix it themselves. Aiden isn’t the only one that has permission to touch the light switch I assume?

Sóley Nótt

First fully skippable episode. Without Ludwig they devolve into animals.

Sunny D

career path is to end up a therapist and loved this episode for the record lmfao

ricardo

I think hitting a comment up front will also reduce your need and therefore tendency to get defensive afterwards, which from personal experience can be a load off even as someone who is also very communicative but afraid of being perceived as careless or selfish

ricardo

these are my favorite type of episodes, eating good this week

jessi h

Team aimen here. This is so incredibly normal of him to think that way. Nick and slime don't work there.

I get Nick, I would never leave my bedroom door open to the rest of the house, it wouldn't even occur to me and I wouldn't be able to relax if I did it. Sounds like he's worked on it though, literally and metaphorically, so good for him.

Jamie Hauken

Someone setup a Gofundme to get Aiden a reading light

Jacob Baatz

43:00 This is my favorite episode

Landon Ross

While true this entire argument can be solved by buying a lamp, it’s crazy to make someone do it when it’s a non-issue to turn it back on.

David Chen

Jesus Lord Christ almighty, I've never once felt like commenting on an episode until this argument. Aiden is right. I worked in an office where the lights on/off were a problem. The person who gets to the office first chooses the lights at first and the people who come later get to change them based an the majority preference in the room (indifferent don't count either way). If it's very often a 50/50 you just take turns. On top of this if someone needs to change the lights for a bit cause we are WORKING in an OFFICE then they turn them on and no one bats an eye cause we're WORKING in a fucking OFFICE. The assumption they need to get work done is built in cause we're in an office, no need to announce how sorry you are you need to work in an office.

C45

Personally i really liked this ep. Really gives insight on how they look at communication and how they act. :)

jbmen01

Great ep. No notes

P4Y

love this ep personally. Slime dinked it around the 40 min mark but i just like how blown out of proportion this has gotten

Jeremiah Newman

It’s over, lights out on the yard

Jacob Sharp

🤣🤣🤣

Liam Howatt

this episode fucking blows but i still watched it all what does that say about me

Jem Tootle

aiden buy a desk lamp that makes a really loud buzzing noise when it is on, like a giant construction lamp with 10k lumens and a ACOG scope

Ash Lee

The peanut gallery edits are S tier this week

Kismae

look i think nick and slime are being a little on his neck about it but let’s be real, when he flipped the switch and they all turned to ghouls 💀 reading light is the solution

Cade Schweitzer

I think Slime is right that Aiden should announce when he turns on the lights because it can be jarring if the light disparity is as large as they make it seem. I also think there is a power disparity between Aiden and everyone else to where other people would be hesitant to turn the lights on or off. However, I think it’s fair that Aiden turns on the lights when he has to work on a specific thing or when he gets in the office first because he does have a lot of responsibility at the company and wants to perform his job as best he can. Commenters might not find this argument entertaining, but I think it is interesting when they use the argument to pivot to a conversation exploring each other’s personalities and how they move through the world.

Gabriel Kilwein

this has been one of my favorite episodes ever.

bub

lmao these are the same guys telling you to "communicate" in the Advice Show

Logan Kelso

i can believe i spend money to listen to three thirty year olds arguing over fucking lights

Austyn Manning

The lights aren’t the issue, the issue is Aiden not caring he’s the ONLY one that wants them one way and is/was turning on the other lights only because HE wants them on. If he’s the only one in the office whatever, if he asks the others in the office if he can turn them on or if anyone cares before doing so then fine, whatever, but that’s not what happens it sounds like Aiden just assumes it doesn’t matter and since he doesn’t care then it’s fine if he just puts the lights he wants on because he prefers them or wants them on to do something, etc

Garrett Storm

Aiden clutching with the dick out argument

SquirtleSquady

I thought this whole saga was all jokes. In reality kinda makes both nick and Aiden seem a little weird. The space they are chilling in is an office not a living room so it’s weird to expect something else. But on the other hand if it does bother people as much as nick and slime say, why not order a couple lamps to light up your area. There really is no friction to going to the store quickly or even giving your money to Bezos.

Daniel

also yeah sure it’s annoying that aiden doesn’t just get a personal reading light but the implication that overhead lights make the office a completely unworkable space is ridiculous lmao

zaina

and the people getting all up in arms about this stuff need to shudup. if listening to this made you uncomfortable in some way thats more representative of things going on for yourself that are yours to deal with. it isnt your place to comment on a friendship that is clearly healthy if you watch any other episode where they get into it like this. even on THIS episode (the most egregious "offender" of the 214) you can tell by how the argument resolves that their dynamic and friendship isn't suffering and will not suffer because of something like this. if you really have a problem, skip the ep and wait for next week's without commenting on a relationship that isnt yours to comment on. calling the ep bad is fine or not fun to listen to is fine thats ur opinion u can share, but if youre mad enough about the episode that makes up 1/4th of what your 5 dollars this month has gone towards to pipe up about where your money is going, implore you to dig deep and ask yourself, is it really worth getting upset about?

Max Dowell

they keep saying low stakes lol but this feels so obviously deeper than office lights and maybeeeee should’ve been discussed off pod idk

zaina

I thought this was a fun little argument, and wasnt half as heated as the macha donut one. Yall overhyped how "bad" this episode was gonna be

PotatoSnatcher

Well no we need to hear luds opinion on all this still so i figure we got another episode or two about the lights coming

PotatoSnatcher

i was so surprised to see people hating on the main and this ep this week. as someone who has taken part in many a stupid argument with friends i loved listening to these, i didnt even register that they felt different than a normal episode.

Max Dowell

The chapter overview is so funny.

Jamie Hauken

Slime doing Swiss instead of Swedish makes it way funnier

Jamie Hauken

first episode I actually couldn’t make it through

Shawn

this made me laugh hard af - aimen

The Yard

Aiden gets the lights but he has to dress up like C. Viper once a week. Boom solved

JK

How does Slime keep getting the autistic allegations when Nick does this?

Jojo

To unemployed boys bully an employed man for 30 minutes

Jalen Knowlton

What’s also wild about this argument is that the soft lights are relatively new so everyone else has worked under Aiden’s lights for years but now it’s an issue?

Cameron

42:549 That was crazy

SnorlaxBTW

Aiden is right about turning the lights on, but should acknowledge when he does, and also it should be reframed because aiden isnt turning the lights on just bc he likes it. The job says lights have to be on to read and aiden has to do his job. Just blame the job. Also im with him on the reading light because principally he shouldnt have to spend extra money to do his job at work because other people want the lights dimmer lowk insane lol

Avery Schrader

this argument has to end with nick and slime getting aiden a reading light for him. peace treaty for better content

Jak Sanzo

Thats just not equivalent what the fuck are you talking about dude

Sam F

it's so fucking funny, i forgot i read a comment about the audience track and it caught me off guard. my favorites were the "Mm"s when Nick was spitting some points

Squillz

exactly. Aiden even admitted that when they first had the new (low level) lights installed, he was inconsiderate about leaving them on all the time and now he's more diligent about it

Squillz

I'm only a few minutes in but I keep thinking of the argument by replacing lights with playing music on a speaker. It would just be strange to blast music in an office when you need to work instead of just buying headphones.

Sean

Aiden won me over with the dick out argument.

Cadel Hammond

oh boy

throatygoaty

Also, you guys can just build him his own office. Get him a little glass office so he can feel like a big wig

Wompie

It's funny the split of people that thnik Aiden si right vs. the other guys. It's a very cut and dry thing if you have ever worked in an office. Aiden is being incredibly selfish and thinks that his way is the way that is completely logical because why would anyone else want lights in the office that aren't office lights? I think for a quick little experiment they should make Aiden work in a real office (not in gaming) for a year.

Wompie

peak slop. this is EXACTLY what i paid for

Anisa

everybody commenting about the argument but we gotta address the live audience track is actually perfect

Caspian Bradford

please god let this be the last we hear of this

Bailey Cook

This is so real

Chodd

The craziest part to me about this whole discussion is Nick framing it as Aiden constantly having the bright lights on and Aiden saying he only ever does it for work, if Aiden is being truthful here then Nick is a crazy person for having any issue with it

Cameron

harkonnen ass lighting

Adrian Dupre

that lighting switch was brutal

Tyler Yatos

Aiden is right about the lights and I'm so tired of hearing two unemployed guys harass him about an office having overhead lights on.

Chuck

so 2 guys who don't actually work at the office unnecessarily clowning on the guy who does work at the office needing to use the office lights to do some of his office work. Why are slime and nick trying to psycho-analyze Aiden over something so incredibly simple? "Hey, maybe be more considerate about the office lights and when you use them." Is as far as this debate realistically needs to go.

Squillz

Nick is a child of divorce he split the pod apart

Jacob Gutierrez
