Key Points
- Jalen Gunter, known as JG, is a model and says he is better in person, with the recurring line that the internet is fake
- He argues online only showcases the coolness while in person people see the genuine personality
- His favorite thing to do offline is seek out community spaces and unfamiliar places to meet new people and chase experiences
- His phrase for it: just do it for the plot
- Through six episodes the tally is five better in person and one better online
Jalen Gunter, JG, opens with the thesis and never really leaves it. "Internet is fake."
Better in person or better online? He gives the honest version. "I''m going to say better in person, just knowing me, but I''m pretty good online too." Then the real answer: "I love people. I love that in-person interaction. And most people are better online. Internet is fake."
What makes him better in person? Not a performance, he says, the opposite of one. "You see more of my personality. Social media is where you showcase the coolness. But in person you''re like, oh, this guy really is cool. Genuinely." He lets Savvy finish the thought for him: genuinely a cool guy.
The best part is his answer for what he does offline. He does not name a hobby. He names a method. "I search for community spaces, put myself in spaces I haven''t been before, maybe bump into people I''ve never seen. Experience something I''ve never seen. Just chasing experiences, honestly. Just do it for the plot."
Do it for the plot. That is the whole episode. Six in, that is five better in person, one better online.

Jalen Gunter: Internet is fake.
Savvy: All right guys, what's up? We're here with...
