Okay well shall we promote this?

This is Islander, it's a magazine.

I've heard it's worth your time, I have not read it but it looks pretty good.

Some nice artwork on there.

Check it out.

That's it, no more.

All right so we need to talk about Gary Stevenson, Gary's economics.

He's quit!

rejoice everyone he's quit after getting bodied for his documentary he's quit

or has he or has he

or has he he hasn't oh oh yeah okay yeah i've

spoiled i've spoiled it spoiled the end of my segment at

the start he's not actually quit my disappointment is immeasurable

and my day is ruined i don't care we thought we we thought we'd got rid of gal

but he's come back Yeah, so this big quite interesting turn of events really.

So yeah, so you said has he done a documentary?

Yes, he did a documentary

He did a documentary

and it was one of the most embarrassing things He's probably ever done in his entire career

and seemingly off the back of that.

He has now just quit.

What's the documentary about?

Resent resentfulness jealousy tax the rich Leftist economics economic theory.

Yeah, but I didn't watch it but what i gathered wasn't it

that even other lefties were saying bro you don't you're all kinds of wrong is that where

that clip of him talking about the wealth tax comes from i know he's always talking about wealth tax

but yes that is part of it yeah

and other leftoids were like what are you talking about mate he's getting bodied by even his own side

so it's been very funny

so i just i just want to go through it basically um

so this was his goodbye video part of it anyway posted this on uh the uh the twitter sphere

so we'll just play a little bit of this

here we go so i just i want to point

that out straight away i think he's put them there on camera right the biscuits

because he's getting told there's numerous comments about the biscuits clearly just being part of a set right

and i don't think i've ever seen him put biscuits on a plate before all right

so i just thought i'd say that from the off because i thought that was quite funny But anyway, here's his shifty, crackhead visage.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, this is it.

Last one ever.

Yeah, it's not, though, is it, mate? Is it definitely not?

No, it's definitely not.

Okay, right.

I think if there were comments about the biscuits, to really prove them wrong, he should have just...

Chad moved on the entire video eating the biscuits with a mouth full of biscuits, like spitting them out at the camera as he's talking.

Yeah.

Can I say I think one of the lamest things you can do is threaten to walk out

and leave the room and not.

Well, we're going to get to that.

I think that's so lame to do that.

Yeah.

I'd be ashamed to do that.

If you're going to walk out and leave one way or another, do it, though.

You're going to think he's very lame, then.

Okay.

From the end of this video, you're going to think he's very lame.

So let's just watch a bit of this video from...

Yeah, this should be a good starting point.

And I knew I was knackered.

And I remember going, I remember going onto Piers Morgan with my channel 4PR.

So how'd you feel about it?

And I was like, I feel like I'm going into the lion's den with two fucking broken legs.

You know, because I knew, I knew they were just going to come for me.

And, you know, the media has come for me a lot.

And it's one thing, I went on Piers Morgan last year.

If I can be honest, I think I can't fucking dance around him, to be honest.

And I just went back in as like the world's knackidest man.

I remember when I did BBC News, no, yeah he's really tired isn't he really tight he's just

the world's most tiredest person i'm tired i'm there i'm just i'm exhausted he must he's

so tired this guy they're like do you want to do makeup

and i said to be honest i want to look as

knackered as i am i don't want oh weird things i

want to look as tired as i am why are you

so tired gary what's wrong with his what is his physicality

what is it you know his jaw looks all wired like he's on coke

or something recovering addict is the image the aesthetic

that he gives yeah all right anyway we'll watch a little bit more

because it's genuinely fascinating i've been pretending to not be knackered

and um i went out

and did the press campaign really really really we landed it um we've got a lot of use um

but it's kind of been I've been looking I've been today I'm shooting this on 4th of July

and I've been counting down the days I've known

that this was going to be my last day shooting YouTube

and I've been counting down the days to it for ages basically um

and basically the long story short is I'm knackered

and um I've given right

so anyway this is a 48 minute video here's a quick summary of it all

because no one wants to watch 48 minutes of this

this genic telling you how tired he is

and I did actually watch this it is one of the most boring videos I've ever seen

so I am saving you a lot of time he starts out sort of chronicling his journey

and persistently saying how much you know he's there for people, he's there for this he's there and you know, he just wants to tax people because that's his thing but anyway,

so summary of the video uh gary's not quitting youtube forever

okay all right he's not he's not um all he's doing is ending one weekly video

so he's so tired because he's been doing one weekly video just just to throw

that out there i'm gonna take more time away with his family yeah no yeah

that is that is yeah He does want to take a long break, about nine months.

He's got severe burnout, apparently, producing one video a week entirely on his own.

It isn't on his own.

He has a whole team, which we'll get to in a minute.

100

Alongside a best-selling book campaign and a global press tour and TV documentary has left him very tired, apparently.

101

He also has format fatigue.

102

He feels the weekly format has gotten too scripted and rigid.

103

He's sick of the Gary Stevenson show i mean it's literally

104

called gary's economics okay okay oh he wants to shift to podcasts

105

is this not a podcast i don't i don't i mean

106

what what is the format what's the production like have you seen any of the other stuff

107

because i it's the this i've not watched now it's this what what are the subjects that he normally talks about

108

other than just being tired tax the rich that's it does

109

he go into any greater depth about like here's how the rich are able to get away with tax scams

110

and stuff like that no he just tells everyone how rich he is

111

and he made his money betting on poor people and

112

that they'd get poorer and he's amazing and he's an economist

113

and we need to tax the rich that's it this is

114

the format he just sits at this this is it this

115

is what he's tired of sitting at sitting at a table being filmed looks really hard really hard work

116

that does look i could see how that would be exhausting yeah yeah

117

anyway so he wants to shift it's mental isn't it it's quite insane it is quite insane

118

so he wants to shift to podcasts collaborative formats possibly a monthly video later on um

119

yeah that's kind of it really and that's his thing anyways a little bit more of his tour

120

explaining to people why he's quitting i am quitting yeah i am quitting quitting public conversation yeah i am yeah

121

because i'm tired paddy i'm tired i've been doing this for

122

years you know i'm tired of betting on people's living standards collapsing

123

and trying to tell people every year and getting called a liar by liars

124

and getting called an idiot by idiots it's tiring paddy you

125

know i don't need to do this right i do this

126

because i don't want this country to go down the toilet i see what's happening i want

127

when i come in here i want people to understand this

128

will get much worse this living standard collapse will get much worse i'm not just saying

129

that i've been betting on it for 15 years i've made

130

millions of pounds doing it you cannot allow a situation where the british

131

and it's not just happening here it's happening across the western world where the working class

132

and the middle class

133

and the government all very rapidly lose all of their wealth to one percent of people

134

because again so he is right in suggesting

135

that living standards are going to get worse right like um

136

if you want to watch uh a video on it dan

137

dan of this channel uh has a brokonomics on it right like he he is right in suggesting

138

that living standards are going to get worse he is right in suggesting

139

that uh wealth inequality is going to get worse

140

but his his his format for solving it is wrong his reason his identifying reason behind it is wrong

141

but he's right in suggesting that it is going to get worse

142

because it is going to get worse but again he's just a moron doesn't quite understand it

143

uh but he's just tired and he's just super tired

144

so it's not

145

that tiring at all to make a little bit of content

146

it's really not especially the amount he makes i mean our

147

grind you me our grind is way more than this the

148

content meal at lotus is way more than what he does way more it's not trust me it's not that time

149

when you've done a real job a real nine to five eight till six real job yep it's not

150

that tiring it really isn't and and if you're gonna leave just leave bro

151

just leave you don't have to announce it you can you

152

can just stop he's doing a pity party yeah yeah it's a pity tour

153

so come come and pity me please um

154

and yeah you're right you know doing the kind of work

155

which we do yeah it's not actually

156

that tiring to be honest you know it has its own trials

157

and tribulations don't get me wrong but it's not tiring compared scheme of things particularly

158

if he used to work in um whatever i can't remember

159

what he did do trading trading city bank trade now

160

that is i can understand that if you did

161

that into your 40s or something you could claim burnout maybe

162

if you carried a hod around you lugged bricks around for a living yeah okay real burnout yeah

163

but making a few videos no no i don't i don't

164

buy it oh he's tired mate okay all right he's sick

165

of it he's tired he doesn't need to do he's made his millions super super tired yeah um um anyway

166

so i thought what we'd do is just take a look at sort of the state of play

167

that gary has crafted for himself as he leaves right

168

so this was one year ago um i think we've got

169

the exact date here as well sorry it was oh i had it up it basically uh just click on

170

that just click on the description the actual date will show

171

up it says one year ago there's one year ago click on it 29th of december 29th december 2024

172

so i want to i want to just play this because he's he's he's a crafty little bugger

173

he's gary's economics so remember he said it's all him he's just doing it all by himself We contradicts himself numerous times, so this was in December.

174

If we are going to be politically powerful, we need staff and I need staff.

175

I just don't think there's any way

176

that I can cope with making it significantly bigger than it is without any full-time staff, basically.

177

And that means we are going to need funding and that means that we are going to open a Patreon.

178

I spoke about it just before I went away.

179

We're going to open a Patreon and we're going to see what we get

180

and you know i don't know whether we'll get a lot i don't know whether we'll get a little but

181

if we want to be politically powerful down the line we we're going to need staff

182

and if we need stuff

183

if we need stuff we're going to need funding just help support me

184

and help us to to get a little bit more ambitious and

185

and diverse with the creativity of what we do help us

186

to work with different creatives help us to get different people on the channel

187

so it's not just like me every week in my no face ID.

188

So okay Patreon that's fine you know make your bread like

189

I've got no qualms about people getting Patreons setting it all up the terms of what she outlined

190

you know for the purposes of the Patreon was to improve the content wasn't it

191

Shall we have a look how that's gone?

192

Look at that pitch oh my god!

193

Shall we have a look at how that how

194

that has gone okay

195

so yeah yeah not not not a lot oh not a

196

lot has changed he did go on some some holidays day signing off that was a year ago

197

yeah you're saying there's no obvious change in the quality of

198

the oh no he's didn't no he's done nothing all right

199

okay he's done absolutely nothing at all literally nothing look at it

200

just to see oh we're back oh he's back oh because he took another break by the way

201

because he keeps taking breaks just as an fyi keeps taking breaks keeps coming back

202

but so this was that year ago here's what we're going to do

203

and he's going to open a patreon

204

and literally i mean less than a year out he took another break

205

and was like oh i'm back goodbye for now

206

right okay cool interesting

207

but remember he wanted he wanted your money to um improve

208

content didn't he wanted he wanted your money to uh to get people on get a team

209

so one it's not just himself he definitely has a team

210

which we know he does anyway because he's admitted to having a team before

211

so him saying he's tired of sitting down and being filmed is a bit of an odd one anyway

212

gary's taking a break what's next for patreon well what is

213

next for patreon what is next for patreon hi oscar here oh

214

so he's not alone then there's someone at least called oscar working with him uh

215

and oh is gary's gonna send you a message he's probably

216

not it's gonna be oscar i would presume what we're what we're gonna do

217

while gary's away oh so gary's literally just swanning off

218

just doing nothing right okay brilliant we're gonna start doing live

219

patron q a's again brilliant right your donations will keep the youtube channel publishing new content

220

oh right

221

so he's not quit he's not quit actually at all he's

222

just again he has just quit doing a weekly video

223

which he's tired of um oh we got funding from a big donor

224

amazing brilliant 16 new animated videos explaining gary's ideas of

225

dysgenic resentfulness brilliant can't wait to be lectured in animated format on rich being rich

226

and apparently there being a finite amount of wealth in the

227

world gary's ideas of a misplaced first year undergrad student politic pinko social champagne socialism can't wait for that

228

yeah 16 animated videos of that yeah wait yeah so in

229

that year by the way in

230

that year uh it was it was 2024 wasn't it right um

231

so he's been earning quite a good cross from patreon um at bare minimum at bare minimum

232

and that's if every single one of his 2000 plus members

233

were paying the lowest tier of his patreon he is earning just shy of 13 grand a month

234

i mean it's good man

235

if you can get it it's not too shabby yeah doing

236

one video a week good luck to him well he's tired

237

of it guys i'd say good luck to him you know

238

if you can get your money i'm i'm happy for people

239

to i'm not i'm not the one crying out for a wealth tax he is right He's already rich,

240

so if you could make an excuse for yourself to take nine months off so that you could go to, like, I don't know, the Costa Rica or something.

241

I know.

242

I mean, you would.

243

Come on.

244

I mean, if I could earn that money per month I would but I also wouldn't be crying about wealth tax.

245

Maybe you should start making economics videos.

246

I should shouldn't I yeah.

247

Don't tax the rich.

248

Give me all your money.

249

Don't eat the rich.

250

Oh literally upwards of three hundred thousand pound a year he's earning basically.

251

If you're taking it all into account like the sort of

252

well the video made it sound as though he's using the

253

patreon money to pay his staff members no no like he

254

said it's all by himself though like oscar here he might

255

be on 13 grand a month you never know he might

256

be the only staff member might all be going to him i mean maybe in

257

which case gary are you are you taking applications for new

258

assistants well no there's an animator like alex check check here all right that's still about six

259

and a half grand a month so you know sequo split between two people maybe

260

but remember he said it's just all himself in it unless oscar

261

and alex are different personalities maybe maybe how do we know

262

how many are living up there maybe it's all gary it's

263

all gary you're gary i'm not gary anyway i'm gary and so is my wife So why did he actually quit?

264

Well, he quit because of stuff like this.

265

And remember, he's quit a lot.

266

He's quit many times.

267

But why did he quit?

268

He quit because of this.

269

Sorry, I know it was a long clip, but I had to play it.

270

Because that is part of his documentary. And he's getting...

271

And that's someone on side.

272

That's someone that is actually on his side.

273

I was going to ask who this bald guy is.

274

Because also, like, everybody says that Gary Economics looks a bit weird.

275

This guy also has an incredibly off-putting face. and mannerisms

276

but he seems like a twat as well frankly it's a

277

really really simple thing i mean sort of a gcse

278

or a level thing in economics of uh the flight of investment

279

if you overtax people it's it's really really sort of 101

280

stuff we've already seen it now the figures have come out to say

281

that like we've got some of the lowest millionaires we've ever had in this country now they're all just gone

282

if you've got a lot a lot of money to invest in something

283

and you can do it anywhere in the world yeah why

284

would you do it somewhere where they're going to tax you you just simply don't pick

285

that place yeah it's it's very very straightforward stuff

286

but i mean gary doesn't seem to it really is the

287

politics of resentment isn't it it really really is the politics

288

of you were told at some point in your formative years

289

that it's just simply not fair

290

that there are ultra rich people in the world the wealth is a finite thing

291

and the more that's in their pocket is the less that's in the pocket of poor people

292

and you just never questioned that profoundly you never changed your view on

293

that and that you must simply steal from the rich to give to the poor

294

and well it's just not how the world really works how

295

the world goes round it's not really how the distribution of wealth works

296

but okay okay gary's got his 1.6 million

297

and uh 13 grand a month on patreon well what can

298

you say good luck to him there's a lot of stupid

299

stupid people in the world he's not actually quit okay that's

300

the take home from this he's not actually quit it's just got burnout this is all performative nonsense

301

well i mean one of my issues with uh what gary

302

economics was talking about what gary was talking about in in

303

that there with the whole wealth tax thing was

304

that yeah i mean for one the

305

that dan guy um the other weirdo uh just saying like oh you can't do this tax

306

because it'll take a

307

while to do isn't that's not really an argument the much stronger argument was the one on foreign investment

308

but i've i noticed when you were looking through his uh youtube page that he's spoken to an economist called Hajoon Chang,

309

who I've read some of his work and it's actually quite interesting because Hajoon Chang is a progressive, but he's also kind of like a realist as well.

310

And he's got some arguments against things like foreign investment, where he's saying that, you know, if you have foreign investment,

311

most of the time it's going to take the platform of like transnational corporation coming into your country, potentially siphoning itself away from all of the rest of the economy.

312

So it's mainly just taking up land and labor

313

and the rest of the money that they're making isn't going back into the rest of it.

314

It can take away opportunities from local business owners or just drive them out.

315

There are actually some interesting and effective arguments against it, but Hajoon Chang keeps like running up against the idea of protectionism.

316

And essentially the logic of it ends up with, well, you need to be a protectionist country in that case

317

and have strong tariffs to be able to protect against foreign encroachment into the economy.

318

Like Gary Economics and even Chang himself, they're not actually going to push for that

319

because ultimately they are still a form of globalist progressive type

320

and if you have protectionism then you can't justify massive flows of people between countries as well

321

because ultimately the logic that they're pushing is contradictory internally

322

so that's that's one of that's one of my issues is just

323

that like if you're gonna

324

if you're gonna make those arguments just go all the way

325

just be like yeah the the UK should close its borders physically

326

and economically and we should take another 50 years to be able to build ourselves back as a self-sustaining nation.

327

But he won't do that.

328

No. No.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.

ShadowingEnglish.com – Pratica di Shadowing in Inglese

Parla inglese fluentemente usando la tecnica dello Shadowing. Ascolta video di YouTube con madrelingua, ripeti frase per frase e costruisci una pronuncia e fluidità reale — usata da studenti IELTS in tutto il mondo.
