Do people have opinions on it?

Like it's cool to see how the man lives, and vlogs are addicting in nature, but I feel like I know him too well now. Like I'm sick of him, but I'm still probably going to watch the next one because his life is absurd. He lives in a different reality, where his "work" is really not work.

I love his Vlogs but at the same time I think he should do maybe two or three a week. It's awesome and all but I think he may ruin his relationship with Janni (I know its none of my business). I mean it is probably really annoying to have a camera around when you're just trying to go for a jog.

I'm not really stoked on people who dedicate their lives to showing the world how rich and cool they are via social media. I haven't watched any but I'm guessing that's what they are right? with the kind of resources that Jon has he could be doing great things like hosting JOSS but instead he just wants to be like "ayy check out how fast this supercar goes"

havent been on his page in a long time so took a gander. fuck it was awkward. his girlfriend is smoking hot but then there is this super awkward fanboy filmer following them around. the fuck?

i am sure hes getting a huge payout for every minute of video he puts out though or whats the point of doing it other than some vain idea that people actually care that much about your life.

Janni is dope. It's nothing without the filmer dude. He's definitely not a fanboy. He's just a 20-something killing life and traveling for free. Also his filming is on point.

A large part of the vlog is showing off but I feel like you don't have to be into his lifestyle to enjoy watching it. Like my girlfriend is into the fucking kardashians but I'll peep that shit just to see what it's like

just watched a couple of em, theyre really well produced but its really weird watching them do such mundane things like eating dinner, sitting on the beach, buying groceries... it just seems super vain but I guess thats the idea with a daily vlog. I'm kind of a minimalist so it's weird seeing how much random, unnecessary shit Jon buys.

Not my cup of tea but they vlogs have been getting 40-50k views so I guess it's working for him.

He started one too!? Fuck, here we go.

I will say that I tried watching Casey Neistat's -- which is apparently the inspiration for all this nonsense -- and I think that dude is lame compared to Colby and Jon

Naw, Jon had the OG video blog in 2010. Neistat's only being doing a daily video blog for a little over a year. Maybe he's inspired Jon to bring it back.

I like some vlogs, but not his. I like to watch them if the people are chill and humble
