>> About just being a filmer, though. Low

key, Gabe was still slotting even as a filmer. You guys tell me who you like.

filmer. You guys tell me who you like.

We're now we're actually going to go back home and probably spend another 5 days shooting like 300 DMs to to cast for next season of House of Feelings.

So, I'll see you guys back at home. On

some nights, I'll be out in the streets.

On some nights, I'm I'm spending 5 hours on Instagram shooting out DMs to make season 2 happen. Yes, I did [ __ ] up my explore page, bro. After 100 DMs, I think I broke this [ __ ] down to a

science. So, first message, I go, "Hey,

science. So, first message, I go, "Hey, I got a question for you." That question alone probably gets about 50 to maybe 70% open rate because you got to think, it builds intrigue, right? If if you're

a pretty girl, right, like you're getting hit up all the time and boom, there's a message in there that's like, "Hey, I have a question." Sandwiched in between all the, "Oh my god, you're so

beautiful. You're so beautiful. You're

beautiful. You're so beautiful. You're

so pretty." It's like a Jimmy Zang like 200,000 followers asking, "Hey, I got a question for you." Reputable creator, right? It it's going to build some

right? It it's going to build some intrigue. Followup is, "Would you ever

intrigue. Followup is, "Would you ever consider being on dating show?" I don't put I don't do the pitch right away.

After [ __ ] 50 DMs, I'm like, "Okay, maybe the pitch is wrong." Now, I'm no casting director, but call me out the gate with a full paragraph of like pitching the show. It was just, "Hey, do

you want to be a part of my like like chill, let's let's let's have a conversation, right?" So, second

conversation, right?" So, second message, would you consider being on a dating show? Sometimes I'll get a hey,

dating show? Sometimes I'll get a hey, that actually been on my mind for a while. Cool. Oh my god. Then third

while. Cool. Oh my god. Then third

message, we we we figure out logistics.

Where are you from? Like, you know, how old are you? Like I'm Then I do a small like like a soft pitch, right? Hey, I'm

producing like a dating show out on YouTube. You're down to be on it.

YouTube. You're down to be on it.

Simple, right? After that, I'll probably get them on like a Discord call or like a Google Meet call and then that's when like I tell them about the full premise of of what I'm doing.

>> What do you think you bring to like a like a group dynamic?

>> I'm honestly I'm a goofball. Usually I

get along with people who kind of have like like that black cat energy. I feel

like I'm like drawn to them cuz they're like so mysterious.

>> How hot is it if a guy is like like nasty about >> Oh, it's super hot. Yeah. If he's also toxic, then yeah, it's hotter.

>> Oh, you like toxic ass?

>> No. Like toxic on Valerin like [ __ ] on people, you know?

>> This is who we've casted so far. Looking

at everybody here. Let's just go down the list. So Sarah is somebody we found.

the list. So Sarah is somebody we found.

She was in my stream and just shot a DM.

Cold DM. N well that's you know what I'm saying. That's

saying. That's >> that's my friend.

>> That's your friend. Right. Right. Right.

>> Uh Drew Woo. She is um >> Yeah, she she fired. Erica has appeared on my channel one time in like the Uber

driver delivery >> uh thing. Now, unfortunately, at this season, we we couldn't get a a lineup as handsome as last season, you know, with

with me and Fash carrying the show, but I feel like this is this is a close, you know, close runner up, >> Mr. Vit Trap himself.

>> Mhm.

>> We got Brandon Kim, 6'2, Korean, very bubbly, very sweet, but also very calm.

>> Then we have Prosper. He He's been blowing up recently from from Tik Tok.

And then we have Jerry. Now he's the Jerry. Jerry the the older I think he he

Jerry. Jerry the the older I think he he my age and >> you my age too. It it even says in the notes similar to Jimmy in the first half

but more loyal in the second.

>> Yeah.

>> You like my notes? All right. If I had to predict, >> we got a personal profile, like ice breakers, uh, dating history, preferences, >> even the survey, we we had like 22

responses.

>> Last time we just picked the first eight. And like looking back on last

eight. And like looking back on last season, like one of the most impactful scenes was Fash, you know, just telling that story about, you know, one of the most like the hardest things he he had

to overcome that year. Now it's like what if we knew all that information going into the show and basically direct them at at points of like okay this is this is when everybody could get a

chance to talk about that right as opposed to just like it happening. So

hopefully when we do it when we go about it this time around the show will ultimately be a lot more successful.

>> Uh this is Max our our producer.

>> How you guys doing?

>> Uh Max you want to give a quick introduction to the peoples? My

background is in reality TV and I literally just hit up Jimmy after watching How's it feeling season one. I

thought it was a great show and I think like a huge opportunity to like make it a lot better. I I love how it really spotlights, you know, Asian people. And

I think uh that's not discussed about enough on, you know, at least in traditional media. A lot more of this

traditional media. A lot more of this audience needs to see this kind of content.

>> Now, now granted, you're you're from reality television, right? Why would you leave your comfortable television job to come work for a stupid YouTuber?

>> That's a good question. I mean, reality TV is like as we know it is is kind of on the on the downtrend. At the same time, YouTube is trending up, and I want to be where the future is. So, I want to show you a statistic. Why focus

everything on YouTube? You could get a real job in television. A 60-year-old TV executive said this to me recently. I

own three companies on YouTube space with 20 plus people. I still feel a lot of people are not seeing what I'm seeing. YouTube is the new TV.

seeing. YouTube is the new TV.

>> This is why I make him read right before.

>> It's the prayer.

Y'all got to understand to self-make and self-fund and self-cast Netflix level dating show. This [ __ ] ain't easy, bro.

dating show. This [ __ ] ain't easy, bro.

It's just a threeman team. Me, my

producer Max, and Gabe. Like, it's just literally a threeman team manhandling this Titanic project. We're uh t-minus

24 hours till we uh house.

>> Obviously, I'm not participating no more. This is my director's reel.

more. This is my director's reel.

Someday I'm I'm going be able to to to show them how how I run things around here.

>> So, we have uh Jerry right here.

>> How y'all doing?

>> How you feeling coming into it?

>> I'm feeling nice. I'm

>> nervous, though. Definitely. Are you?

>> A little bit.

>> It's always nerve-wracking to like come into a a a place with all strangers, you know?

>> You just don't know what to expect. You

don't know what tea you're about to get.

>> I'm excited for the tea. I'm excited to taste it.

time we >> And how long have you been single for?

think no one has really able to match that energy yet.

feelings are still great. He's even

better in person than the claw.

>> Oh yeah.

>> I love how he's like so in tune with his his emotions, but like >> forward and charismatic.

>> God, he is so in touch with his emotions >> and articulate.

>> Yes. Articulate. He's so in touch. Bro,

the thing about the the the the show is that like every season you going to get a whole new batch of new characters.

>> Oh, it's just so different. Everybody's

so different, man. This is what like the excitement of making it like a social experiment.

>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

>> And the best thing of it not being like scripted >> cuz if it was scripted, I'd be bored, dude.

>> Oh, yeah.

>> I don't think I I would be a part of it.

>> Yeah.

>> But like this, it's like the cast comes in and the cast could surprise you rather than us surprising the cast.

>> Yes.

>> We spent days just doing casting interviews to see who would be the right fit. Cuz keep in mind, we're also trying

fit. Cuz keep in mind, we're also trying to orchestrate relationships that will that will escalate like organically, right? We want to forecast like future

right? We want to forecast like future couples. And sometimes we'll interview

couples. And sometimes we'll interview people that, you know, you guys might think is a good fit, but hey, they might not be a good fit for the show. Listen

y'all, I need a recruiter, right? If

y'all want House of Feelings to live on season after season after season, me Jimmy Zang shooting a 100 DMs a night is

just not sustainable. Like I need a girl, actually preferably a girl with a little bit of followers to send out these DMs for me. And this is a call out. If you're interested to become a

out. If you're interested to become a recruiter, link me your Instagram, email me right down below. Secondly, I'm also just looking for future cast members.

Granted, we've already shot season 2.

So, if you guys want to be part of future seasons, I'm going to leave a application for y'all to sign or if you're a lady or if you could suggest a lady friend who's down for for some crazy plot this year, maybe send them

the application. As you guys know, House

the application. As you guys know, House of Feelings is is not just about strictly dating. Cuz y'all have to

strictly dating. Cuz y'all have to understand that like the first season, yes, it was it was comprised of like a dating show. The end result was us

dating show. The end result was us actually being friends. You know, it's not, oh my god, a bunch of naked horny [ __ ] trying to [ __ ] each other.

Like, no. This is this is semih wholesome. Nonetheless, it's a beautiful

wholesome. Nonetheless, it's a beautiful experience. And if you guys haven't seen

experience. And if you guys haven't seen season 1, I highly suggest you do so.

Like, we spent an entire month prepping for this show. So, I really hope you guys enjoy.
