The old man is starting 😂

Yelling at the clouds ☁️

Van is going to be such a legend when he's 80. He'll have the saltiest takes. The wildest hobbies. The most perfect eccentricities. This is like the first sprouting of some seriously good shit in the years to come.

[MayBeYouTubin]

Low Key waiting for the Spirited Man App.

"No more shorts" Bro here in Texas we are entering the 100+ degrees for two months straight territory and y'all are lucky I'm wearing anything at all.

[eyesontheinside]

I see a video of this guy and i get some sort of buzz in my neurons that tells me i need to clean my room and start working lol

[geejayhey]

"Apps are f***ing stupid". I think Casey might agree nowadays, too.

[neilk]

"no more cheap anything, except for this baby monitor" 😂 im here for all the spirited contradictions - great channel!!

[krsp]

Not being 40 in 2008 makes an appreciable amount of ‘the world felt better’ difference.

That QR Menu line was Gold! Van treat yourself to a nice pair of Whites Boots I like the 8" packer or smokejumpers and you'll never need another repair. They are the Toyota of boots!

[TerrificFlow]

You might have crossed the line of snobbery a couple of time here, sir. Sometime you gotta do what you gotta do.

[sstorholm]

I like that these are rules if they only apply to you and preferences as soon as others are involved. Very considerate.

[minty]

Thank you for your tidbits of wisdom. They are much needed. Take care man.

[sivarapu]

Hey man, I saw you at Venice Beach biking and I was really awestruck lol. You were with your kid so I didn't approach, but thanks for making videos that actually mean something.

[tbreak]

i've been in recovery for two years. my life was very directionless in a lot of ways. people like van make me.. sort of excited to get older. to be in my 30s and 40s onward. life was so empty before i can only hope that moving forward i'll find a life that's so much more active and focused

[LoosiuFlying]

Soooo true - I despise apps for ordering a thing when You can actually see the person or the item.

[jaredt.murphy]

I have similar takes about useless apps.

During college orientation (2021), they had all the prospective students open their phones and download an app and then take a long intake questionnaire that was little more than "what're you into kids?" or "Rate your experience" - I pulled out my BlackBerry Classic and shrugged.

I then got to sit on the bench and watch the clouds go by for a few minutes while everyone else sat silently on their phones rating the nothing that had happened yet.

no sneakers is a crime, i’m just trying to be comfortable grocery shopping

[chadbaxter]

This guy is an awesome you tuber. funny how we get older and we realize what’s actually more important. Most of that is our time. This guy gets it.

[jonathanroberts]

I love your work and always envisioned us likely having a lot in common. I can't get behind the majority of this list.

[jbratt]

I don’t wait for a seat at a restaurant.
