[ifscho]

[jlgbutt]

Very Interesting!!!

[richieq212]

its too weird seeing you from the neck down

[charlesislemons]

How could 68 people have disliked this? They must have missed the like button...

[Placeh0lder]

That was just awesome, talk about a nice guy starting with nothing but a webcam and turning it all into a Company that he loves to do and uphold and would not change it for anything. I only started watching Phil like two weeks ago, and I'm in love with his show(s), Sorry for the nice-rant, he just seems like a whole-hearted type guy who risked it to get the biscuit xD its just cool to see a nice guy win. <3 phil defranco

[ConjPronVi]

john =)

[EvaDestruction10]

I admire your work Phil! You make me want to go off and make videos. But then I soon realize that i have no camera to begin with so im just gonna stick with watching you everyday.

I didnt mean that to sound creepy, :)

Great Speech BTW.

[FuNGuRl102]

i got into youtube through funnyjunk a LONG time ago, i thought that everything was just so funny so i would look it up on youtube and i fell in love with youtube

[jessicajnsm]

I got into youtube because of you. I still remember that day. It was early in the morning (well, early for me) and I was watching Alexa Chung's show on MTV (it's been cancelled for years now) and you recorded a video for her show. And I asked myself "this is a guy on youtube talking about current events"? So I thought I'd check you out. I loved it. From there you showed me other youtubers and the chain continued. I finally got an account and have been a youtube nerd ever since. (:

[TawneyShea]

That fat guy is totes a dick. Who does that? So disrespectful.

[Rip4D]

I kinda wanted to punch that fat kid in the gray shirt reading the book for acting like Phil didn't exist.

[litblondie22]

@Rip4D agree completely!



[rakketakke]

Good speech, I liked it

[Nallecram]

@DaleyStarr I'm just trying to point something out. so why don't you stop worrying about me and stay in your own business.

[auti1997]

MY BIRTHDAY IS SEPTEMBER 15TH DAAAAAAMN :D

[futureespn]

Phil, thank you for uploading this video. I just started up my channel last night, but you gave me the "pep talk" i needed to make my first video and hopefully many more to come

[matti550]

[GZxModzz]

Phil I remember my 2006 account! That I forgot the password to haha! I was his 32nd subscriber. Now when you said something about your first 1K subscribers meant a lot to you. I wanted to fuck you in the ass until you foamed from the mouth. Can you guys please thumbs up so he can see this?

[KingOfTheNarwhals]

@GZxModzz Very nice. I hope Phil sees it.

[GZxModzz]

@KingOfTheNarwhals Why thank you I hope Phil sees it too!

[TheJakelers]

[Rybaka1994]

Ive had 4 accounts in the past twoish years, all of them have been subdivided to sxephil, probably subbing to this to

[MrKev1784]

Really interesting insight into Phil. Great talk :)

[LittledudeJrr]

I love stars.. they're so bright.. and hot..

[gurgleface]

You should totally TED talk this.

[Arwen2006]

[Spazazz218]

I love PDF!!!

[kidwithcurlyhair]

you gotta look up to this guy

[chsiao999]

I'm not used to seeing phil for longer than .5 seconds w/o cutting 37 times.

[CawubTV]

He should host SNL like a BAWS!

[twomanycatz]

So when he says "awful skits" does that mean is time spent with The Station?

[DANIELH23]

Lol I joined Youtube like a month after Phil did.

[burbidgestephen]

It's been a while since I've looked at something except your face jump cutting around the screen...

Congrats on the weight loss dude.

[C4shenanigans]

Sexy Phil. He's not sexy, sexy Phil he's SXC... (yeah he's definitely not sexy!) .. i miss that! 

[C4shenanigans]

@C4shenanigans I, no joke, would have that jingle stuck in my head for days

[YoshiIkagawa]

Seemed like a good panel, Phil. Was there any Q&A?

[RJSnax]

You are the first person I subscribed to and because I kept coming back to see your show I subscribed to other channels too. So thanks to you other channels got subscribers too.

[grayraider06]

3yrs and going strong. you're like the number 1 reason i check youtube lol

[joshbuck]

I created an account just so I can sub to this guy

[funny10134]

Your awesome phill

[Roag94]

Remember when he quit then came back then quit then came back then quit then came back and made NSFW and then threatened to leave and i comment "you always say you're giong to leave but you can live without us" then he just accepted it

[goatsmilk234]

i found out about sxephil by looking up a story i wanted to know more about. i clicked it and the first thing i did was click off cause i just wanted to know about that story and the first thing he was talking about wasnt it. like a month later i looked up another story and i clicked a sxephil video again. i clicked out. it took me 5 times to click a sexphil vid before i watched a full one and fell in love <3

[lawgirl613]

I didn't expect your body to look like this. I still love your face and dimps!!

[amordios21895]

Phil was the reason I made a youtube account!! it was about.. 3 years ago

[rvill004811]

Phil has a really odd looking body.

[ihaveafohawk]

Who was the guy from sports car racer?

[FisheyDude]

SKYNET IS COMING!!!!!!

[heretoview8]

there are wayyy to many empty seats, wish i had been there

[cameradiva12]

"SXE Phil.. He's not sexy.. SXE Phil.. You've just been filled in.. Yeah he's definitely not sexy" I miss that...

[thecultchie]

Phil and Boh3m3 were my first subscriptions

[unknownkbot]

Does anyone else see the ad in the top right that says "SXEPHIL, I AM YOUR FATHER"?

[BlackMagiK887]

you need to do a career highlights video showing all the high and low points of your youtube career, that would be boss

[AbsenceOfEnmity]

Phil i never miss any of your videos, you are awesome :D

[R00F1EZ]

Phil Had become, an inspirational person to me on YouTube. I'm not one of those kind of people who is like, " Oh Yeah, Justin Bieber Is an Inspiration to me". Okay what the f*** Justin Bieber Fangirl Type People?! I actually know what I am saying. Phil keep doing what your doing, and stay awesome.

[AwesomeSauce102]

you rock phil!

[Smidgeroo]

You're a really engaging speaker, and the dimples are too freakin' cute! Keep being awesome. :3

[Tronny232]

By coincidence I was just rewatching The Show with Ze, so I can't resist pointing out that Ze's audience were sportsracers, not to be confused with sports car racers. :)  For the nostalgic, check the Oct. 24th show. DFTBA!

[CoolLikeNerimon]

Daaannnggg Phil's lost weight!

[gregthebunny553]

I like how half the people look asleep and are reading books or playing WoW on their laptops.

[mattgellison]

Yay ze

[cityhunter04]

You know, at first I thought Phil was not only a complete douche bag but also a tool, when I initially saw his show years ago. Came back a year after and really enjoyed it and have been a fan ever since.

[othersideofthedoor99]

@thedarkrouge mine too i made my account to subscribe to him

[shadowzeek1]

that's grate being able to tell a story on how you started off instead of geting insta big because of minecraft -.-

[erinbates1]

I clapped and giggled hysterically when you hugged John Green. So much awesome in one shot! :D

[mestupgirl08]

Love that you posted this, love you and your show so much Phil. There would be no youtube for me without Phil. Plus when I get that notification on my ipod I can't wait to watch because you always make me smile :) and sometimes its the only bright point of my day.

[theworldeatswithyou]

Where was Crunkcoco? :B

[infiltrator7777]

Man, vid con looks like a half assed put together program.

[MrFrankthebest]

Vloging not the greatest job :/

[sthomas438]

omg was that the dude from vlogbrothers at the end of the clip? :D Was he the host??

[Saint3033]

I agree with TwoStupidGirls

I've had a YouTube account since around 2006 also, I lost the account info and signed up again just to subscribe to Phil's channel. All these years and he was my first sub. Nice.

[Lovely2291]

You're right, I learned how to crochet by Youtube. Now I have a client who hired me to make a gift for her sister-in-law's birthday. :)

[H20hottee]

You're the only person I always watch who produces their videos like that, everyone else I get pissed off or bored with and am not bothered about trying to catch them

[Tweeb]

Haven't watched your vids in a while, you've lost weight Phil :) lookin good, keep it up

[SamuraiTheory]

OH-Mah-GAAAWD! Phil is such an inspirational individual and just overall awesome!!! His speech was just amazing! BRAVO!!!! ^_^

[caradesalsa]

You are too cool phill... Thumbs up

[CriticalState]

I'm pretty sure in 2008 when I found out about Philip DeFranco, I didn't have a youtube account. I'm pretty sure the only reason I made one back then was to be subscribed to sxephil. <3

[GoldennHawk]

Lonelygirl. I still remember when you did that web series with her back in 2008. You made me so excited for YouTube back then.

[eagleman328]

Phil, you remind me every time you upload a video why I subscribed to you. Thanks!

[FreewheelinLibertine]

What's monitization and what did he mean when he said it's all for web at the end? I really like the way he analyzes youtube and the internet and his business sense.

[Geoshi]

Phil I distinctly remember signing up on youtube just so I could subscribe to you.

[KiddsockTV]

Why is my video related to this. Tags and Titles are so different.

[YourLongLostLoner]

phil would have to be one of the nicest guys, and that audience didn't show much respect.......................­....damm you audience *shakes fist*

[ashleypaigeparamore]

Inspiring, Phil.

I'll never stop watching. :)

[Malkintosh]

Your real life audience seemed enthralled.

[ckkrazy]

Out of all the subscriptions I have made over the years, Philip DeFranco and all his other related channels have remained my favorite and most viewed.

[benjyp1223]

Phil was my first sub too lol

[AriannaBeauty]

Awwwwwww! I got a little teary!

[o0OreidanO0o]

"The Phillip De Franco Show. The show that isn't really a show, it's just me talkin' to a camera for 3-4 minutes...Yeeeah" God I miss that!! :D

[robofish10]

@o0OreidanO0o I think you mean "The Philip DeFranco Show, the show that is the best show thats not really a show but its me talkin to a camera for 3-4 minutes... Yeeah.

[freethechronic]
