February 26, 2018 marks the premiere of the Olan Rogers-created animated series Final Space. While longtime fans of the YouTube star have been waiting for this big breakout moment, many people still do not know who he is.

For those unaware of who he is, Olan Rogers is different from the usual YouTuber. His channel and social media sites aren't overloaded with advertisements. He doesn't do ridiculous, weird challenges. He even holds free events for his fans! In 2014, he opened a soda parlor/apparel shop in Nashville, where he holds trivia nights, video game tournaments, and even movie nights! He's funny, talented, and genuinely real.

Who is "Little Big O"? The best way to get to know the Tennessee Wonder Child is through his YouTube channel! Don't know where to start? Here are fifteen of his funniest videos!


1. Ghost in the Stalls


This one is legendary. It is the ULTIMATE Olan Rogers story! Funny catchphrases, pranks, pop culture references - it's got it all!

Best Quotes: "It's a Monday." "I am the Master Commander!" "Again? Freaking again?!"


2. The Batman Birthday


This one is my favorite! In this video, he tells the story of how his Batman-themed seventh birthday was invaded by a kid named Christopher Robin.

Best Quotes: "It was the middle of June, and it was hotter than Charamander's q-tip." "Out of the corner of my eye, like The Shining, I saw Robin. Christopher freaking Robin." "He was basically... a horcrux." "I had the wind at my back, and the dreams in my forward."


3. Chuck E. Cheese

Chuck E. Cheese is a terrifying place. That giant animatronic band is the stuff of nightmares! In this video, Olan Rogers shares his story of being terrorized by that robot rat.

Best Quotes: “You know back in the day, back in the hayday, when all of your problems could be solved with a slice of pizza? Suck at algebra? Eat a slice! Can’t put on that underwear right? Well, go ahead and eat a slice! You hate pizza? Eat a slice!”


4. The Snack Thief

Lesson learned from this story: Midday snacks are important to second grade children, and you do NOT want to mess with the mother of a child whose midday snack has been stolen!

Best Quotes: "I was a small carb in a big-carbed world." 'Freaking Scotty!" "Abusing candy? Not in my house!" "We gotta save Buddy!"


5. Clues Stained in Ink


This one is a hilarious story about the mischief one might get into when bored.

Best Quotes: "The only way to liberate yourself out of boredom is to give in and drop the chief. You can't have mischief without chief!" "I'm here, the printer is out there... one plus one equals fun!" "I once mooned five miles of highway traffic. And I was driving. Kidding, it was eight miles." "I mean, it was strangely beguiling, until I realized that I had inadvertently mooned myself."


6. Meet Starscream

This one isn't a story, like the others, but it IS an adorable introduction to his cat, Starscream.

Best Quotes: There aren't really any in this one, but it is really adorable!


7. It’s In the Genes


In this story, Olan Rogers said the single most relatable thing he has ever said: "I freakin' hate all pants."

Best Quotes: "Pants do this thing on me where it sounds like a ship trying to set sail every time I walk." "High school me thought that the ladies were all about the backyard buns. You know, that's what they looked for." " I hope they just look out for elbows." "It was like I got hugged by Daryl from the Walking Dead. Season seventeen Daryl." "James, we can fix everything!"


8. Midnight Claw


This is a story of nature, magic, and monsters! Well, camping, rolling lightsabers, socks, and bats, but I swear it's as brilliant as that first description makes it sound!

Best Quotes: “It’s the story time equinox.” “You might see long johns. I see cotton chain mail.” “It was my kingdom, okay. And when enemies attack your kingdom, you don’t flee. You show them why it’s your kingdom.” “DID THAT FREAKING JUST HAPPEN?!”


9. The Bad Apple


In this story, Olan Rogers talks about a time where his curiousity literally ruined an apple.

Best Quote: "I was the M&M of the family. I wasn't even a peanut M&M, I was just the little chocolate M&M." "I have no idea what he gave to us. An embryo of a lava being? He went up to Mount Doom and scooped a tear from Sauron's eye!"


10. Return of the King


"Return of the King" is a story of love, heartbreak, and tragedy. It's HILARIOUS!

Best Quotes: "Was she the fairest girl in all the gated playground? I have actually no idea. Did I like her ninety percent because her last name was the name of a snack I frequent, Bugles? Heck yeah!" "It went so deep, James Cameron has already planned an expedition to find this skittle!" "It was like he did something wrong at the Willy Wonka factory and they took him away! All that was missing was a musical number!"


11. The Fear Awakened


This story is all about the hilarious terror of waking up with two numb, useless arms.

Best Quotes: "Nothing takes the birthday cake quite like this. Well, maybe the birthday kid." “I know that’s a bold statement. Perhaps even italic. With a font size upwards of the 30-point. I mean, maybe even 42-point. Crap! That’s headliner size! And it’s in Times New Roman, so you know I’m serious!” "Freaking Van Helsing would do something like that." "Here lies our beloved. Cereal is life." "I'm going to use both of these and a spoon to become a cereal killer."


12. Cut From the Picture


Picture day was always the worst part of school, especially when your hair is a disaster! Also, Olan's mom is a total badass!

Best Quotes: "I mean, I see chunks of hair in the towel! I mean just CHUNKS! SO monumental that you need a Costco membership to experience it!" "It was like an inverted lego!" "My dad wanted answers pretty quickly, but all I could say was, 'I was combing.'" "The barber was... he was out, so the bartender cut my hair." "That's why I gave him a hat!"


13. Movie Barriers


This is an old one (it'll be eight years old in May), but it's still one of his best!

Best Quotes: “Nobody just walks into the movie theater and just wants a vegetable seat!” “Uneatable nachos! Nobody could eat those! Not even Doug Vinny!” “And what she did next was the icing, was THE ICING, on my uncomfortably-made, awkward, stranger-made cupcake! She brought the armrest dividing me and her up.She brought that crap up, no qualms about it. . . She made two divided chairs into a freakin’ couch. We’re watching the movie together now!”


14. The Comeback Kid


Paintball was a disaster for fourteen year old Olan...

Best Quotes: “An undersized, awkwardly slow roly poly. This is the visual that I would use to best describe middle school me.” “He had the agility of a hammock, and he had a head shaped like a vertical watermelon. He was odd.” “What a tool… belt. What a toolbelt! What a tool bench!” “Son of a Wesley!”


15. Echoes Through the Wall

Terrible neighbors are no match for a prank planned by the Tennessee Wonder Child!

Best Quotes: “He looked like a thrift store Jason Statham.” "That crap is two-player Jumanji!" "I don’t have an owl!”

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
