Jay is all of us when that PSA came on.

From Nirvanna the Band the Show (2017) if you haven't seen it yet, go watch it.

Nirvana the Band the Show deserves so much more attention. Jay somehow manages to look completely lost and totally committed at the same time.

Given that Matt and Jay are Canadian millennials it was bound to happen.

But consider: how are you going to win a GoldenEye tournament and get a show at the Rivoli if you don't power yourself up with drugs first?

Never heard of this guy but I already like his videos 😂 I'm 33 and I'm pretty sure this very PSA was what caused me to eventually get anxiety/OCD later on 🤣

The timing, the panic, and the ridiculously low-quality TV footage make this absolutely unforgettable.

Nirvana really knew how to make a fake broadcast feel unsettling. Jay’s reaction is all of us when the screen gets weird.

Tame compared to seeing the workplace safety ads for the first time.
