Alexander Jahan's Fashy Gainz

All the content that we've shared for daily shoutouts so far have all been podcasts, but I've said from the beginning that the FAM Network will be video as well as audio.  Today, we highlight a YouTube channel named "Fashy Gainz."  Gainz just released a video that starts off with a nice clip from Alex Jahans, better known as the "Get Rid of All the Guns, It's Not Worf It" kid.  He is quite a card and I've been struggling to find the much referenced video of his for awhile, so kudos to "Fashy Gainz" for taking the piss out of this kid and helping me to finally find him.


The video Fashy Gainz critiqued was Alex rambling on incoherently about the "Alt-Right" and himself.  Referencing "The Daily Shoah" by name, Jahan's stammers on.  Apparently, the poor kid hasn't done well at coping with his newfound fame with people who disagree with him on just about everything as well as find him ridiculous, which he really is.  Advice to anyone in the future who find their self in Alex's situtation:

Just take it in stride.

Even if they are laughing AT you, if you're a good sport about it, you can harness the attention and turn it into new subscribers and money if you monetize your content with AdSense or take donations with Patreon etc.  Alex would the a PERFECT "Chateau Autiste" star that we've been missing if he wanted to.  According to Fashy, the guys have been considering getting him on "The Shoah" which I think would be a great idea.  Not everyone that appears needs to be fully versed in 1488 philosophy to make for good radio, and this guy definitely is famous with the Alt-Right for all the wrong reasons and I love it.  I thought it was great to have Tila Tequila on "Fash the Nation" and disagree with the people who were critical of McFeelz for having her on.

Features a blast from the past in the form of an incredibly catchy diddy from "Mario Paint" from SNES.  Although I haven't owned a system since the original X-Box, I do enjoy classic gaming and when a piece of nostalgia is expertly chosen it really sets the piece of content a part.  The video is worth watching for the background music alone.  It's crazy to think of how good at arranging songs for such a simple 16 bit system that were incredible and engaging and not annoying even though the limitations of the technology meant songs had to be very simple as well as repetitive.

IT'S NOT WORF IT!
