It make me really sad when I learned that James and Adam were not friend.

James said their relationship doesn't really extend beyond the show.

[–] Shard@lemmy.world 41 points 4 months ago

That's fine and I think its pretty much the perfect example of a solid professional relationship (no need to be buddies or "like a family") and what greatness can be achieved when you work with same endgame in mind. They may have disagreed plenty but only because they wanted to achieve the best outcomes possible.

While they are not friends, if you follow Adam on youtube, you'll realize there is a huge amount of mutual respect between the two, even to this day.

No, he means James. James Franklin Hyneman.

Who goes by Jamie, and always has?

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Yes, he does always go by Jamie. Cordlesslamp technically wasn't wrong though, and I think Adam even called Jamie by his full name a couple times for comedic effect.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah, but the "for comedic effect" is key here. Unless you're going for comedy or confusion, you shouldn't refer to someone by a name they don't use.

Yeah, I'm sorry English is my second language, sometimes I'm confused how names are spelled.

Interesting, what's your first language?
