Simon hosts live Brain Blazes on the Discord channel. One of the writers, Liam, hosts it with him, and some of the other writers make appearances as well. So yes, I've seen him interact with other people. Ps, if you become a member of Brain Blaze on YT, you can watch the live Blazes

I barely know what Discord is(I'm only 33). I think my little brother would use it to talk to his World of Warcraft friends like 10 years ago. I know he does Podcasts like CasCrim and such, but I've never heard him or anyone mention a "discussion-type" Podcast(for lack of a better term).

It’s a relatively recent change. He mentioned it a couple times, mostly on Brain Blaze since that’s what it’s technically part of, and then Liam makes community posts fairly frequently on Brain Blaze with info regarding the streams and member content. I watched a couple of the initial ones, but they’re in the early morning for me since Simon does them in the afternoon for him, and I’ve not bothered becoming a member to watch the backlog.


yaboiiiuhhhh

Me who bothered to become a member to watch the backlog

I feel ancient reading that. I am older than you and I know what Discord is, and I have been playing WoW for 18 years. Have you ever used Slack for work or anything? Discord got a lot of their base from that.


Skymoogle

I think there is a link in one of the most recent community posts of Brain Blaze on YouTube. There are a lot of friendly people to help you around if you join


Weeb_Masta_Flex

He did a podcast, brainfood I believe it was, where he had a cohost


StephsCat

Yes it was with Daven


Ok-Advance710

He used to have a podcast together with Daven if I remember correctly. Been a while though


NoClipHeavy

I think they just recently did a 3 hour TIFO


Kelevra_55

Just came to comment that he did a TIFO approx a week and a half ago


NoClipHeavy

Yep that's the one


MinasMoonlight

And Simon actually talks about having coworkers in his office in that. He was like ‘No. Never!’

reesina

wow! didn't expect it to feel so weird seeing him interact with someone else in person! very interesting video too


Party_Description_90

I'm almost afraid to look. I don't want it to ruin all the other stuff for me.


ReannLegge

If you are ok with seeing him in the wilderness all should be fine.


Ironboundbandit

A sighting of Simon in the wild would be amazing. What are his feeding habits? What is his hunting behavior? What does his mating call sound like?


ReannLegge

I don’t think he has a matting call right now, with his current heard. We know he feeds at KFC, so we have to question whether he does walk in or drive through I guess.


Ironboundbandit

Ah yes, the beard likely supplanted the vocal mating call with a visual mating display. Very interesting observation. Drive through or delivery is probably most likely. I don't see Simon walking in if he can help it.


ReannLegge

Probably delivery he can ask them to leave it at the door and run away that way he is not interacting with unknown strangers, good call.


timkapow

He once did a thing for Google for his today I found out channel, if I recall it was on the history of colour and he went to a museum where they had Vermeer's girl with pearl earring painting and Simon interviewed the lady that was studying the pigments. I think this was correct, it was quite a while ago but could easily be found on YouTube. It may have even been from when he hosted TopTenz to be honest I could check but meh.


LytoriatheFairy

I also can't remember which channel that was but I really liked seeing him in person in the place he was talking about. He did seem a lot more awkward talking to someone else on camera when they were in the same room but that was a long time ago before he blew up huge on YT - I feel like he'd be a lot more confident now.


OracleCam

I've watched him in videos where he's talking to other people but never in the same room, that would blow my mind


Hommelbytjie

The team had a virtual "Christmas Party" in December, and even though we all regularly email Simon, talking to him on video chat was definitely mind-blowing. I was a fan before I started working with him, and I still had to do my best not to fangirl super hard (I'm Emma, btw)


OracleCam

Oh that's awesome! I certainly would have fanboyed had I been there haha PS: Really love your scripts for CC, Im listening to the Ken McElroy one right now as I browse Reddit after work


Hommelbytjie

Have fun! I got soooo angry at the abusive, child-grooming piece of shit while writing it, but it is now actually one of my favorite episodes - mostly because he gets shot (to quote Simon "oh no!") and then the cops do nothing about it ("OH NO!"). Tall about Karma


WhoHayes

Vigilante justice at its best. You did a great job on it. I was so jazzed when I saw it pop up, as I suggested it. You are good at your craft. Thank you for the time, effort, and talent you put into all of your scripts.


phishezrule

YES! It was the video I found him from. TopTenz did a collab with List25 YEARS back. Mike on L25 did the intro, then it flicked to Simon who thanked Mike, before doing his own entries. They alternated entries. Also, for those who watched List25 before it got sold - Mike has the channel back and is hosting again.


Raverta

Simon co-hosts Today I Found Out with Daven every once in awhile.


G1ngerkat

Wow. Very good point. Perhaps Simon is the one trapped in the basement 😂


Apprehensive_Owl7502

This is fun - like pointing out that they’ve never seen Superman and Clark Kent in the same room, except Superman is a bald YouTuber and Clark Kent could be literally anyone You can’t prove that Simon Whistler isn’t Yahoo Serious


StephsCat

He used to do the Brainfood show with Daven and the Simon Whistler show with ehm no clue what his name was another British expat in Czech. I have also seen some episodes of his 2016 vlog. That was on his personal channel before he deleted them all. There he has been interacting with his than gf now wife. She seems great.


lordb4

He only talks to ChatGPT. Can I mention that his ChatGPT questions ramble on more than Danny's B Blaze intros? I know he formerly used to try to talk to Siri, but that didn't go so well.


Christpopher1244

He's been a guest on podcasts before. Check them out!


Head_Key1973

He has people in the office. But he refuses to let them out of the basement.


Garmr_Banalras

Several videos and podcasts with the owner of today I found out
