god i KNOW. that video made me so uncomfortable. i truly cannot tell if louise is acting uncomfortable or if she really felt like that. i don't want to get weirdly parasocial or anything, she's a grown woman and i'm assuming she watched dan's recent videos before agreeing to be on his show, but it felt really wrong to me. i feel like the persona dan puts on for videos has changed in a way that just isn't my thing anymore. i don't mean that he has to like children or anything like that, just don't be weird about parenthood to a mother of two. i have no idea what he's going for with this.
^^ exactly! the fact that we’re unsure if louise is in on this or not makes this so much worse. i feel like he’s becoming more and more unlikable every video. it’s difficult to enjoy his videos when they’re filled with anger, screaming, complaining over everything, making fun of the guests, over the top sexual jokes etc. i get that he has created this persona but it’s just not enjoyable anymore, and you can’t call it ”just a joke” when it’s clearly at the expense of his guests. sad to say but i’m losing more and more respect for dan each day.
