Jason Nash on burning out, the intensity of the mega-famous Vlog Squad, and finding a balance between family life and YouTube
Jason Nash
- Jason Nash is one of the members of the Vlog Squad — a mega-famous group on YouTube who gain millions of views.
- The Squad appear most famously in David Dobrik's iconic 4-minute 20-second videos, although every other member has their own channels with millions of subscribers too.
- Nash told Insider he has the "best job in the world" because "it's our real lives with comedy mixed in, and that's my favorite stuff."
- But it also comes with challenges, like balancing YouTube with spending time with his kids, burning out from thinking of ideas, and knowing what to share with his audience about his private life.
- "I do worry about it catching up, but it doesn't seem to because we have so many members of our group," Nash told Insider. "We all have each other's back. We're really blessed in that regard in that we all help each other."

Jason Nash used to answer the phones when he was an assistant at "Saturday Night Live," but now he's part of a mega-famous group on YouTube where he might have to drop everything and fly to Vegas on an hour's notice, or enlist a friend to suffer through a gross prank for money.
Nash, who has about 2.5 million subscribers on YouTube, told Insider about the time he was going to film his friend Joe eat his toenail for $500, but they lost it down the drain when they were attempting to clean it.
