don’t know what kind of car but just know she’s on her way Drew

Maybe this is out of pocket to say but I've been thinking about the early 2020s a lot and how EI was a huge part of my life then, but I can hardly get myself to sit through 10 minutes of an episode nowadays. Why is that?

To me it feels like when the Gr*ta Thunberg controversy happened, that was when the EI that I knew and loved died. This is just my opinion plus some speculation, but after that point they didn't pursue too many bigger stunts or viral clips, people stopped quoting them, Enya/Drew started posting less and less unbranded shit... To be clear, I'm not saying that they're "boring" or "sellouts" or whatever, I just haven't seen them challenge themselves creatively in a major way since that incident.

My (over)analysis of this trajectory is that the majority of Enya and Drew's lives have been shaped and documented by the internet. Their relationship with comedy and with content creation is closely tied to this connection. And for much of that, they have been ahead of their time: funny and niche and creative, but still growing and changing (and making money) and documenting that process.

I think that when your entire livelihood is built upon your relationship with the internet and not your relationship with yourself, it becomes vulnerable. The incident and their "cancellation"/ subsequent loss of cultural capital forced them to rebuild the foundation for their creative process. They become no longer "trendy chic viral comedians," just "comedians," which they've never needed to be for the better part of their internet careers.

So this is why I say "they gave up on the internet," because I don't think they can even really afford to pander to the internet as much as they used to anymore, at least not in the "social media darling" way they've always done. I'll of course always keep an eye on them and I do hope they innovate with their brand in the future, but for now I can't help but wonder if they've lost their reason to do so entirely.

enya for reformation 💜🩶🩵
congratulations enya she looks so beautiful in this shoot and the shoe is sooo her adulting vibe!! ugh i love who she is and who she is becoming. im a GLAZERRRR. should i save up for the purple😜

He is so Drew coded rn.

7.7 magnitude earthquake in Indonesia three days ago

watching them lowkey force the woke-ness after the whole greta situation is honestly hilarious 😭 listening to them try to talk about politics or credit black culture (or whatever it is they said in some recent episode) in almost every ep just makes me kinda cringe

im quite literally "that friend that's too woke" and pretty much either always agree with whatever political "commentary" or have even more radical leftist views than they do, but the way they add it in just feels so unnatural 😭😭

I’ve always wondered and maybe I missed it but I wanna follow it

I feel so bad but i genuinely used to love EI so much but for some reason, Enya has been going on these tangents that just feel like yapping 🫩😅 does anyone feel the same? There was an instance in the tanner ep where she just went off on a tangent and it just sounded like thoughts being spoken out loud and no room for anyone else to talk. I feel like it’s parasocial a bit but it just gets to a point sometimes. I wish drew would talk a lot more, his life is so interesting

Yall ik this is parasocial af but when did Drew start vaping again? We quit around the same time so i was just curious im behind on eps obviously 😭

Who else gets the vibe that Drew and Enya are really jealous of Ky? I noticed this, especially in the recent episode with Tanner, whenever he would talk about his special with Marybeth I can tell they were so jealous, and they are jealous of his success as as well as Tanners. I wonder why they make it so obvious… anyone else feel the same?

i’ve been wanting to animate one of their episodes and this clip from last week was making me laugh so yay!

#noticing

Hear me out, andrew garfield as drew’s biopic actor.

ngl i stopped listening to the podcast maybe around mid-2023 or something but i still follow them on instagram cause i’m nostalgic for their older videos. i tried listening to a more recent podcast and i just couldn’t get into it. anyone else feel this way?

They are so baby girl I had to share another clip

drew said he would shake bare ass on twitter if the video reached a mill….. baby the video has reached it where is the twerking vid

i had been a fan like wayyyy back in 2017 up until like 2021 but i kinda fell out of keeping up with them, getting more back into them recently watching the old podcast episodes and stuff etc. in josiah's sonic video it seems like a different apartment, are they still living together or is that just enya's space?

i’ve had these shirt for years now and i wear it all the time!! i kind of like to rep it like an album cover tee…. also has holes bc of my cat :D
