Dogs have been by our sides for well over ten thousand years, so it’s little surprise that with such a long history, we’ve developed a strong bond with our canine companions; they are truly “man’s best friend.” Last Minutes with Oden is a somber look at the final moments between a pet owner, Jason Wood, and his dog, Oden, before he is euthanized. Wood states that his dog taught him how to love, and that Oden was always there for everyone. Last Minutes with Oden effectively drops the audience right into the middle of this intimate moment with its evocative documentary style - and more than a few heartstrings get pulled in the process.

In this almost two hour long one-off, Jack plays a game called “That Dragon, Cancer.” The game is an autobiographical take on a family dealing with their son’s fight with cancer. While playing the game, Jack encounters a situation that triggers a memory of a traumatic event in his life. He remembers the last moments of his grandmother’s life, and he specifically describes visiting her, and having to experience her not recognizing him. Although he had a faint suspicion, Jack realizes that the game is a true story at the end of the playthrough, and he doesn’t take the news too well.

The bond between mother and son is practically unbreakable. In this cut of an interview with Toby Turner, Turner describes the great lengths his mother went to support and launch her son’s YouTube career, like buying Toby a camera to film with. Although this is a beautiful gesture, Toby soon tears up a bit, as he lets the audience know that his mother is fighting lung disease. He tries to hold back the tears with some humor. He finally states the disease isn’t too serious, and that he wishes to bring her to LA seemingly because the climate would be better for her condition.

Although he intended to make something different, he ended up visiting the grave of his friend who presumably died from gun violence, which is a huge issue in Chicago. He talks about calling his friend's phone and waiting for him to pick up, which the friend never does. MrChiCity talks about his inability to accept it all - about being at the funeral and still expecting his friend to answer his phone. While giving his viewers a window into his life, lots of tears are shed.

In this Draw My Life, Markiplier illustrates all the ups and downs that life has thrown at him. He talks about having to deal with his parents separating, living with his father who is diagnosed with cancer, and then watching him pass away. He describes living with his mother, who eventually kicked him out due to her disapproval of his girlfriend, and then his girlfriend breaking up with him. At this point, it seems that everything in his life was going wrong. That is until he decided to pursue YouTube, which brings him to where he is today. Life after that hasn’t been without its challenges however, as the passing of Daniel Kyre also hit him hard.
