StyroPyro: “btw this table I’ve been using for the video? It’s great, they sent it to me free. Watch me try to light it on fire!!”
How can you skip that?!
PS: big F U to US health insurance industry: I'm sick in a bizarre and horrifying way
The sponsor ads work when they're neatly aligned aligned with the video's concept. It wouldn't budge me to see a manufacturer sponsor a PC build video where one of their products are being used. Or channels like GradeA where they advertise the sponsors in a similar way to their vids.
What breaks it is when you can feel the ad clearly feels like a last minute insert (which it feels like almost all the time). Even the bigger creators out there do this.
Love seeing on the timeline where right after the ad is the 'most played'
this is Drew Gooden and The Yard for me. i have whitelisted them on sponsorblock because their ad reads are so fucking funny. also obligatory shoutout to Internet Comment Etiquette
I whitelist tomatoanus in sponsorblock just to follow his ad-read lore. Thats peak advertising.
MapMen. I still rewatch some of their ad skits just because they were catchy and fun.
The sponsor segments in GrayStillPlays' videos are the only ones I remember, mostly because he ran the sponsor merch over with a lawnmower.
Ordinary Sausage occasionally makes the ads amusing.
Bringus Studios had a video yesterday on the alpha I Dec kit for the original devkit. Not only was the segway pretty slick but it had his signature humor included which actually made me watch through half the ad. First time I didn't skip the sponsor which I think says something about his writing and delivery
MiniMinuteMan did a bit where he just juggled while talking about the sponsor and you know what, it fucking worked on me. Jangle those keys for me.
I like Steve Mould's ad reads. He does science content and seems to only advertise products and services he uses, so his ads are mostly straight "this is what I like about the product, what makes it different to alternatives, this is why I use it, this is the stuff they told me to say"
He's one of the few YouTubers I actually believe when he says a product is good
Even though he reuses a particular gag format in his ad segments, I do like TheWhyFiles ads
For me it's calebcity
Advertising shits in your brain.
Honestly, Grim Kleapers ads are almost a highlight to me. Such a memelord, wacky and entertaining.
Squire's ads are better than the actual vids of some other YTers...
Acerola has cat videos on the side while he talks about his sponsor. I have sat thru it to watch the kitty.
savagegeese are great at this.
