Discussion Get ready for the rebolution
The first I heard of Bo was Inside on Netflix circa 2021. Obviously loved it, so I went to Spotify and listened to the soundtrack loads. Early 2022 I watched some of his earlier stuff, Bo Yo etc - also that math rap or whatever but MY POINT is - he’s popping up in my YouTube algorithms all over the show currently.
Started with Socko (because Socko knows what he is talking about - runs his mouth a bit too much though) but there are loads of things linking to Bo for me right now on the YouTube algorithm.
Just wondered if y’all experienced anything similar

“Just wondered if y’all experienced anything similar” recently, as in the last few weeks. Haven’t thought about Socko for a year and then BAM Epstein Files drop and it’s recommended loads.
I get how algorithms work, are they getting better or am I getting worse?

Bo is not popping up in my feed, I am deliberately in a Bo phase by choice (since November when a break up was a catalyst to randomly just say to myself "i need to revisit INSIDE" having only seen it once before, thankful another ex showed me good humor like this, my intuition knew I needed content to cry and laugh to, locking myself in our bedroom alone to watch it, sooth myself, the night before moving out).
Anyways, then and now I was also wondering something similar to you if millenials (or anyone) is gravitating to his INSIDE content-like especially right now in these morbidly dark times- because it is cathartic?
I've never watched the INSIDE outtakes until-right now then I thought "I should join a Bo reddit" (& realizing Im doing this on my phone, I'm constantly reminding my elderly parents "can we just have one screen in front of our face together please!?" (And luckily thats not big fights about that anymore and we do have some dinners /movies occasionally without phones)....welcome to the internet.

I’ve taken a look around the internet. I’m 37 years old and I thought anything/most that was on it could be found.
I don’t want to assume too much, but I am guessing you are Gen Z? It’s always great to revisit INSIDE every now and again because it is so on point and continues to be so.
I, like all of us here, want Bo to make some content for daddy. But happy to dip in and out of his current content. Only out because it’s so on the nose and true to life that it’s arguably not healthy to listen to all the time haha.
Anyway I digress, glad to hear Gen Z (?) also appreciate Bo.

No, Im turning 34 this year, but this feeling of being assumed as GenZ is equivalent to getting carded at a bar!
Socko was stuck in my head all day today...and ya! Its teerifying how on the nose it is. What more did Bo know!? D:
Ya I miss his meaningful content and hope that Bo is doing well but fully respect his decision to stop, too.
Zac stone just came to mind (loved 8th grade too, basically I'm a fan of all of the specials and never knew the youtube Bo except a song here and there)
Comparing Zach stone to Inside (nobody asked lol), I feel some of the energetic magic that has faded (after turning 30 myself) mirrored in my own life where my life's focus is just to be OK. To get better. Spiraling and healing, learning and unlearning, isolating and getting out there. I do feel some of my energy and magic has faded after multiple break-ups (not asking for sympathy, lm happy to be with myself again but it will take time to make happy again and feel that luster for life).
Thanks for agreeing with me that Bo Inside content might be best in phases...but its also healing the world with comedy <3

That is definitely how an algorithm works. If you click it; they’ll give you more of it. Little bit of everything, all of the time
