My 17 year old son kept scolding me for laughing so much while I watched it on my computer with headphones on, but I'd love to get his take on it.

 

I also sent a link to this video to a friend who's about Linus' age, and I'm waiting to hear her reaction. 

 

Thank you to everyone involved in doing such a wonderful job on the video, and that includes all the talent, and the editing (nice flow).

Seems nobody has mentioned it thus far but Linus already addressed the #HireMadison thing blowing up on FP and then YouTube. I'm sure he'll address it again tomorrow on WAN show but in case anybody can't wait he talked about it on Awesome Hardware on Tuesday.

(Timestamped 34:17 or so)


TL;DW
He can't discuss HR related things including the hiring process so you won't hear anything about it from them directly. If you want to watch for news on whether she was hired check for her portrait to appear on the staff section of their site.

I was thinking: it's been said they'll bring back Channel Super Fun right? Now imagine Madison doing videos there!

I mean she'll probably have to dial down the potty mouth - Linus did said several times this is a thing on LMG videos - but hey I think it would still be great! ?

 

BTW: not sure if those 'just registered to say hire her' are legit but… Whet if most really are? ?

It was indeed an Awesome video, they really looked very Funny.

It was indeed one of the videos i most laughed.

 

"Once there was an explosion, a bang that gave birth to time and space. Once there was an explosion, a bang that set a planet spinning in that space. Once there was an explosion, a bang that gave rise to life as we know it... And then came the next explosion. An explosion that will be our last"

 

"... To see the world in a grain of sand. Heaven in a wild flower

Hold infinite in the palm of your hand.  And eternity in an hour ..."

She may not have applied for the 'right' position at LMG. But I'm not sure they were looking for the title of "incredibly amusing bane of Linus's existence." This position needs to be created for her.

You're hilarious without trying to be. That's a gift. If LMG doesn't hire you, start your own Madison's Life Tips channel or something.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Great video very funny she has a  great screen personalty and I think that Madison would be an awesome addition to LTT. I would like to see her in scrapyard wars or a tech tips and/or quick bits video she would be very upbeat and entertaining.

Haha, definitely! I haven't laughed as much while watching an LTT video since the Linus Roast.

I watched some of your stream after Linus sent the hoard, your reaction was hilarious ?

i bet linus will milk the current situation for whats it worth, but we will have to see how it all pans out.

first off, where does this girl live?

maybe she is busy with work

In Win 805 Infinity   

 

Is what I found on google.  But not sure.  Never disliked a LTT video before, but since I am currently seeking a new case, and loved this case and LTT did not list it, but did a mousepad, video disliked until he links the case(Case matters!)

Just to add this into the mix, Linus was on Paul and Kyle's "Awesome Hardware" show a couple of nights ago. In their superchat section at the end, someone donated with "#hiremadison".

 

Linus replied that they are staggered by the reception that the video (which at the time was still FP exclusive) has got, but that they "do not comment on HR matters publicly" (or something to that effect)

 

The only way we'll know is "if she appears on the roster at linusmediagroup.com."

 

It wasn't an outright "no" - I'd love to see her energy and her female touch brought into the mix too - but let's not get our hopes up here.

I may not have done it with a fancy timestamp, but I did in fact bring this up.

I am there for the video, not the comments.  And yes I did, I stopped reading after I seen it was filled with sexual remarks about an underage girl.  I mean Linus puts a mouse pad, but not the case?  Only reason it annoys me, is I am currently looking at cases, and when I found one I liked, he doesnt give the name or link
