I looked and there are no Hallmark gift cards for congratulating 40k subscribers. Appreciate all the content you put out, you’re the Don Perignon of YouTube videos. In the parlance of Kanye who speaks ever so eloquently, “Your videos are dope and you do dope shit”.

[dhananjaypatil]

May your channel grow more and may many more benifit from your insight and wisdom.

I am sure that there are many more who appreciate your awesome videos. 🙏

[taasinbinhossainalvi]

I discovered your channel a month ago, and I have been hooked and intrigued
By a all the philosophical ideas you talk about. I wish you were my grandpa it would've been fun
Amazing work sir 👍

[lukeh]

I think of you as a cartographer of life - thanks for giving us your beautiful maps :)

[lyndao]

Hot dam, Prof Dodson! Live long and prosper. I came upon your channel not too long ago, years of philosophy and psychology and I find you now. Your the umbrella in my martini, the living' end. Bless you, sir. Hugs.

Congrats. I'm not sitting in my underwear covered in Doritos dust, but I do want to search for truth and meaning. Thanks for helping with that and proving that it is worth it.

Nice video Eric.

Sometimes I kinda forget whats it all about.

Your videos act as sort of guidance in dark times, as a reminder to open up and to never stop being thoughtful, passionate and loving. (etc.)

Anyway thank you for sharing!

I especially love hearing your prose. It adds a quality to your videos that elevates the concepts beyond an intellectual understanding and into that experiential place of knowing. Your lectures are an aesthetic experience for me. I was a grad student about 15 years ago at UWG. I remember leaving your classes wishing everyone I knew could be part of the experience. Now everyone in the world can! Thanks for sharing your creativity, Eric!

A very well deserved if not under subscribed channel. One of the first I subscribed to & one I learn massively from. Great way of presenting your material..like you’re most often talking just to me! Thank you

[coryhudnall]

I intend on watching all of your Youtube videos. You're so inspirational, I wish I could tell you how important these video's are for me. It almost feels like you make some of these videos specifically for me. I am at a loss of words for your Heidegger and Sartre lectures... I've watched them so many times :) -Cory

11:49 someone who adds the video to "watch later" for the car ride home, only to sit through the whole thing while at work

[thattimestampguy]

Your thanks display of kindness come *fresh* .

[HieuNguyen-bxlo]

Thank you. Appreciate your gifts to the world. Priceless…. Thanks.

[leonahearted]

Congratulations and thank you for your channel! I've learned so much from your videos

[mayyiiieeets]

Happy 43.8k subscribers prof. dodson.🥳🎉 Im always grateful that I find your YouTube channel. 💖❤️

[MrDanielpi]

Thank you Eric!

About your final thoughts, I asked myself are we a tribe, are we the symulacrum of a tribe connected by Ytube?


In any case loved your words, I associate what you said about wisdom with paradoxical logics, subtelties, Grey areas, nuances, humility and the appreciation of awe and mistery

[Bobotv]

Congrats Eric!

I actually did have some Doritos this evening, haha

[leahcotton]

This is the YouTube channel I’ve been looking for my whole life. Keep it up!
