Blooms Interview (2024): The Halcyon Show
44My interview with content creator and YouTuber, Blooms.
"Ladies and Gentlemen of the class, please settle down and thank you for joining me for today's lecture. I hope you all came prepared and ready to DAMMIT LESLIE PUT A FUCKIN SOCK IN IT!!!
...Ready to learn all about a YouTuber and creator who I have become a big fan of recently. I became aware of him like I suspect many of you through his coverage and video essays on the iconic American animated series South Park, and while he's clearly a South Park fanatic, given some of the most successful videos he has produced surround the show and its history, plus he may have even given the creators some inspiration in a previous video, there's more to him than that. Much more in fact.
Having amassed over 330,000 subscribers and well over 50 millions views on his YouTube channel, in all his videos you'll find a flourishing intellect, a witty yet thorny sense of humour, self awareness and an insightful look at not only the topics he covers, but slowly he's showing more and more of himself too as he seeks to branch out and take root into other subjects, topics and genres.
Let's meet the man behind bouquet shall we, please welcome Blooms."
