I am very sorry and saddened today to relay the sad news that Robert John Shrup,

founder and personality of the Bob and Brad YouTube channel,

passed away Wednesday, August 6th as a result of his cerebral ataxia.

Now 14 years ago, Bob and I started the YouTube channel.

It's interesting, he just walked into the office one day and he said to me, Brad, let's start a YouTube channel.

We can help many more people and really do well with it, I think.

And I looked at him, kind of rolled my eyes, and I said, yeah, let's do it, kind of kiddingly.

And here we are 14 years later, 4,500 videos, actually more than that,

Bob and I created together and 5.3 million subscribers.

When Bob got sick a few years ago, unable to continue with videos,

we were very lucky and fortunate to have Mike step in to fill his big shoes.

And Mike would like to share some more information as well.

So Bob may be gone, but his presence will still remain with us.

His family, including his daughters, Jamie and Sarah, and his son, Matt, have been a part of this company for many years,

working hard behind the scenes to ensure everything meets Bob's very high standards.

They will continue to work with us behind the scenes

and make sure everything Bob has built will carry on into the future.

And Matt, Bob's son, would like to share an update on what actually happened to Bob

so our audience can hear it directly from the family.

Hey everyone, my name is Matt, but most of you probably know me as Bob's son.

I just wanted to take a few minutes here to talk about what happened, give the point of view of myself and my family,

and just share a few thoughts about Bob, my dad.

On the morning of Friday, August 1st, I got a call from my sister,

and she had informed me that my dad had a cardiac event due to his cerebellar ataxia.

Paramedics were able to get to him and get him airlifted to Mayo in Rochester, Minnesota.

He was in the emergency department for a few hours, and then they brought him up to the ICU.

It was clear to us that there was little to no brain function, and he was breathing somewhat on his own, but also with the help of a ventilator.

So over the course of those next couple days, we really made sure to spend a lot of time with him, sit in the room with him, hold his hand, talk to him,

and just kind of share stories with him and with the rest of the family around.

I know personally for me, I got to spend probably five or six hours over the course of the next days just me and him talking.

A weird thing trying to fit a lifetime.

Kind of an odd thing trying to fit a lifetime of conversations into just a few hours.

I got to share some of my favorite memories with him.

Got to thank him for being such a wonderful dad.

and I just talked and talked and talked until I felt like I couldn't say anymore.

And it was really nice.

Life is a funny thing.

For the last five years, as we slowly watched him decline, the only thing I would wish for is for him to be back to normal.

And then over those past few days where I was just sitting in the hospital bed with him, I would give anything just to have him back to the stage he was at before.

And now, you think you're done crying, but you never are really.

And now as I sit here, I would give anything just to hold his hands just for a couple more minutes.

Definitely one big life lesson there is be thankful for the time you have with people.

Because you never know when it's going to be cut short.

My dad wanted to be an organ donor.

The hospital does a really cool event called the Heroes Walk where they allow the family to walk with the donor,

my dad, down a hallway and down to the elevator doors that take him to the operating room.

And the hallway is lined with the staff that had helped him over the last few days.

And everyone was just so supportive.

It's just a really powerful event just how much reverence and respect there was during that.

To have that moment to be with my family

and for us to all walk together one more time as my dad gives the best gift that he could.

We were told once my dad got down to the operating room they had a moment of silence

and then they read a little bit about who he was

and really honor him which I think is just a wonderful thing.

So on Wednesday, August 6th, three people got life-changing calls that day saying they were getting a new organ from my dad.

I think there is no better way to say how my dad lived than to say

that he saved three more lives at the end.

You know, he's helped so many people throughout his life.

He is the most selfless man I'd ever met, and he would always do anything to help other people.

Before I go on any further, I just want to thank the Mayo staff for the wonderful job they did.

Obviously for the world-class care that they gave my father, but also just for how they treated us.

They were wonderful all the way through until the end.

I also think it's important to note

that my dad would not have been able to be a donor if it weren't for the life-saving efforts of my mom.

Thanks to the efforts of my mom, three people got life-saving calls that day, and several more may in the future as well.

Truly shows how much of a power couple my mom and dad are.

I think there's a few takeaways that I would like people to remember.

My dad lived a very selfless life.

He always gave without the expectation of receiving anything in return, and if we can all strive to do a little bit of that in our lives,

the world will be a better place just like with the impact that my dad made.

I also think it's important to say my dad was working on video scripts on the day

that he had his cardiac event

so literally up until the just about the day he died he was doing what he loved which was helping people.

My dad has always seen this YouTube channel as a family business.

I know I have been working for Bob

and Brad in some capacity doing content creation or video editing for a long time now.

And my sister has been running the company for several years and will be stepping into the role of president.

So I'm extremely proud to work for Bob and Brad and try to help as many people as we can, just like my dad would have wanted.

For the past few years, my dad had always told us, don't wait to live life.

I think that's an important message that we can take away from this is do what makes you happy,

treat others well, and don't save something for later because you don't know if you might lose it or not.

I hope this all sounded okay.

One last takeaway.

My dad loves sweets.

He loved desserts, his peanut M&Ms, his rippier floats.

So I've been told calories don't count when you're grieving.

so my message to everyone here is go enjoy a suite on Bob today

and live life to the fullest I know myself

and my family are going to remember my dad for the rest of our lives

and I'm sure a lot of people out there will also remember him because he has impacted

literally millions of people's lives and I am

so proud to be his son and I'm really going to miss him I love you dad Thank you,

Bob, for being an important part of our lives, for being a great role model and mentor to all, and we will never forget you.

That's right, and I just wanna add, Bob just loved doing this channel, it was his passion, but there's one thing he loved more and spent more time with was his family.

He was a family man all in all, so take care, Bob.

It takes more than death to separate family from the father.

And thank you to our audience for keeping track and caring for Bob for the last couple years.

It's very important to all of us and to him as well.

This is part of it Bob.

100

It all fits together doesn't it?

101

Well, we're gonna give you our standard line here Dan.

102

We can fix just about anything.

103

Except for that broken heart.

104

But we're working on it.

105

Right here we got the numbers.

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
