The Entertainment Man Talk Show started 15 years ago....

             The Entertainment Man Talk Show which was the inspiration behind Entertainment Man Podcast, well the beloved web series would of been 15 years old today, if it was still running this long but I know it would of only ran for 10 years and 10 years only. I had the plan etched in the back of my mind that I would be doing the series till June 2018 weeks after the 10th anniversary of the series, whether it was with The Video Projects Team or ChrisBOnTheWeb alone, it wasn't seeing 15 years, no way in heck it would of happened but still it ran 8 uber long years, still a good run for a series that only ran 6 seasons with a 2 year break between seasons 3 and 4.

            I still hold this series, near and dear to my heart even if the series ended the way it did in 2016 and it wasn't a nice ending. I know Larry and I touched based on that on the "catching up with Larry" episode of Entertainment Man Podcast which he is a regular visit almost yearly minus he wasn't on last year for some strange reason and it will be going up on Audio ONLY on a bonus episode due to the video version being scrapped cause of the bad microphone issues. Either way it will be a must listen to on June 1st, 2023 @ 1 pm EDT.  I know I have touched in the past about stuff and various things and at this point dried out of content from the past so I am moving on with other stuff but it is a series I will never forget, even with the memorable locations Town Hall of 1873, York-Durham Railway, the laughs on set and much more. I am forever proud of the work we did even if we got hate towards the end, I am proud of my former team. That is today's post, I will speak to you all tomorrow!

15 Years Since My First Series Ended!

             It has been 15 years since my first series, Durham Entertainment Today ended. As you know there is no recollection of the series, we did not save anything from the original series that we did from 2005 - 2008. Reason behind it was because of non stop drama behind the scenes and I decided it was best to just stop. Kind of same way the other series you guys hear me talk about The Entertainment Man Talk Show as well. 

          However 15 years, where has the years gone. This year alone will be 18 years in Online Media. so you can tell almost 3 years with the project at the start before I ended up giving up on it all together. Feels like yesterday I was doing all these web series that I was creating with Eric and them. I remember the night we were going at it with one another and I know he would tell me to not dwell in the past but I remember blocking him a few times this is when he had MSN Messenger which is now a thing of the past for us as  it doesn't exist no more. I can say this: we have all matured from the early years and I am making the right decisions for me in the end. Anyways that is my post, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

The Day I Renewed My First Ever Web Series For More Episodes!

                I know I was rambling almost 2 weeks ago on Twitter about this and when I renewed an Original web series which I will not mention the name of it per say but I was fresh out of High School as I graduated from High School and I decided to make a visit to my class, grab my things out of my now former locker as I had to clean out my locker and also grab my grades for my final semester to see if I graduated which I did! I know I say Ms. H, Mr. M and Mr. Plishka too during their lunch hour. Anyways I was on my way out the door in the front of the school that is when I thought, hey I'd like to renew the series up to 16 episodes for the first and only full season that was ever recorded. The one bad thing that happened coming down the stairs at the bottom I twisted my bloody ankle and I had to hobble my way back up the stairs and into the office to tell em what happened that I injured myself and I was unable to walk to the bus to get myself home. They gave me an ice pack and they called my parents to come and get me and I think one of the vice principals escorted me out to ensure I was OK going out to the back parking lot of the school.

              I believe it was mid week by the time Eric found out about the renewal and the ideas I had for the series and I know we had a get together to discuss the ideas and for the most part I remember a good majority of the episodes and I actually think I still got some pictures from those days on disks that I have upstairs but I would have to go up and actually look to see if I kept it or got rid of em. For the most part the rest of this was history and the series ran it's course till January 10th, 2008 which was a date in the history to remember and I wanna do a podcast or blog about the timeline of the Series I did over the years and more then likely it will be done on  a blog as I do not want you guys to be bore you guys on a podcast... LOL!

Explaining The Coming Soon On The Website Navigation... (Finally!)

              I want to explain the entire "Menu Bar" or "Navigational Bar" finally. I want to tell you guys that this year we will be adding some old content to the ChrisBOnTheWeb.com Website OFFICIALLY. This content that we are uploading to the website some of your favorite series that Chris once did on that site called "YouTube" which he is now banned from creating as you know because of a former Staff. Anyways, we both been working on this the last 2 - 3 weeks now and been downloading all the video 300 + videos have been downloaded and will be made available on our website throughout 2021 and will be available for you guys to watch and have a blast from the past. We have separate Archive.org account just for the videos so there is no mix up with the podcasts to the videos.  The vlogs and updates that were on the former TheDirector015 will not be on there. It will be just the series the team did The Entertainment Man Talk Show, Friends of The Entertainment Man and much more. The schedule, we are looking at twice a week at this point and he is looking at Wednesdays and Fridays @ 2 pm EST.


             However right now we are working overtime on videos and downloading and editing the videos so they are ready to go so it will take sometime for us to prepare all of this great content. There will be an announcement when we start uploading up here to the website. This is why there is the coming soon and when we are ready to go that will be changed over to YouTube and will have an array of things on there. We may upload some Behind The Scenes from the Series as we have a bunch of those for 2 of the series. This is exciting stuff that Chris's own website will now house the Archives of his Former Web Series and I believe he has about 7 different series we will be releasing. Any questions to contact us on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram or the Discord. I am always in there more then Chris is majority of the time and are there to help you guys.

First Series We Ever Recorded As The Video Projects Team! (Throwback Thursday Story)

          This goes back to 14.5 years ago when I was at the age of 20. This was when I was starting out on the Online Media world soon as I got out of High School, I got right into it all. Anyways the project was about different attractions within our region and was our very first project that we actually did. This all stemmed and started as a class project for my media class in high school. This is how this all began and started in 2005. We filmed the entire episode in a day and I believe I actually got my dad to drive us on the final stretch as we were running out of time and I think Eric was driven back cause of the timing as by the time we finished it was quite late in the day like 4 pm in the afternoon. Now we originally had an original plan for a small Reality TV series but since the teams backed out on us we had to come up with a new plan and a plan fast as I believe we were days away possibly 2 days from shooting the episode for the school project so we had to call Juliana at the Gallery to let her know of the change that was happening. I know we gave her a 2 day or 1 day notice but it was so sudden.  


            The series completed a 16 episode run as we continued on past the 1 episode on February 13th, 2006 when we decided to continue the series on with different locations out and about and there was no in studio recording. Our Season 1 Finale actually consisted of us doing a clip show outside with a TV in the carport which was little insane but that's OK. The series went on for a 2nd Season but it only lasted 3 episodes before it got cancelled entirely as we had some disagreements or creative differences with one another. However it was only our first series and I wish I kept all the episodes to eventually post up on YouTube as at that time we did not even started till January 31st, 2008. This series actually ended on January 10th, 2008, 21 days before we began our YouTube journey.

The Entertainment Man Talk Show: The Beginning (Throwback Thursday Story)

              I never really talked about this but in today's Throwback Thursday I want to talk about this. What do I mean? I am talking about Season 1, Episode 1 of The Entertainment Man Talk Show as the title above is titled for today's blog. Now the very first episode took place on May 23rd, 2008 is when the show, the web series you guys all knew and loved for many years that it was on the air which was 11 years ago back in May this year. I knew this was like one of the second series that hit YouTube as you know Durham Entertainment Today also known as DET never made it to YouTube whatsoever even after it was cancelled due to the fact of staff drama going on. Anyways someone and their name will not be mentioned as this is now in the past and him and I are on good terms but they were not involved with the series till the 2nd season into the late 3rd season when he walked out with 3 other staff. So basically I had some help but mostly I was on my own for the most part of the season till the season 1 finale came around. The first episode I was extremely nervous compare to now being in front of a camera now, it is no biggie for me being nervous. However the first real series I had to get the jitters out pretty fast but as the series progressed I was getting really good and comfortable. Mind you the first ever episode that I did was a introduction to the series, who I was, why the series is on the channel now.


                  Now if you were to ask me, if I was to do the series all over again would I be as nervous as I was before? The answer would be no as I have streamed a ton and now guested on Punk Rock Cheeseburger numerous times I feel very comfortable. However we are talking about The Entertainment Man Talk Show. It took me up to the 7th or 8th episode to warm up to you guys as a host and really get into the role as host. However once the second season rolled in, I was a pro at it already. I think the first episode for anyone whether it is a web series or a podcast which that will be another Throwback Thursday Story for next week for you guys but either way first episode is always nerve wracking for anyone that is in the entertainment industry like I have. However I have been part of this online media world for almost 14 years now and I should be more comfortable on the camera by now as I have been doing this a very long time now. Either way this was the beginning of what became a 7 year journey and I am still to this day forever grateful for the time I spend on that series for the length it ran from 2008 - 2016.

First Video Ever On YouTube... (Thrownback Thursday)

           I had some other ideas in mind for today's throwback Thursday story but since it is kind of fitting that now I am back with the YouTube platform that I tell this story about when I posted up my first ever video which is still up on the platform under a channel that I cannot no longer access so it's stuck there as a dead channel as it has been dormant for so many years now but old videos can still be seen on TheDirector015 account. So my first ever video I posted was the first Episode of The Entertainment Man Talk Show which also it would of marked 11 years on the air if I was to continue it for some odd reason which I do not think it would of even made it that far honestly but with the team I had we were on a good rhythm going.  Anyways back to the story, the first videos that actually did stay up were The Entertainment Man Talk Show's 1st, 2nd and 3rd episode of it's very first season and originally there were limitations back in the day 10 minutes or less. However originally going back to 2008 when I first started, before The Entertainment Man Talk Show started months before I actually posted up another series which I am going to keep nameless as it wasn't the best series for me at the start but was totally a learning curve for sure. I posted up on the channel the 2nd episode which is now lost along with the other 15 episodes of the 16 episodes that I had and 3 episodes from the 2nd season which was short lived. 


             In the end the original series was removed off the platform and channel to make room for The Entertainment Man Talk Show which ran 6 long seasons before being cancelled and me moving into the world of Podcasting. The Channel ran up to the end of the 4th season when a second channel under a different email was created however in the end it was both DET and TEMTS that were in the first video or so added to the channel. The other old series I do not think the original episode never lasted very long honestly as things were not well in team wise. The early years were quite a struggle so that is kind of the reason behind why that 2nd episode of the original episode disappeared. However in the end I sure as heck made up for lost time with the amount of videos and it was quite an adventure creating a series and I am so happy to be back in a different scenario and I hope you guys enjoyed this little throwback Thursday Story.

How Did The Entertainment Man Talk Show Get It's Name? (Throwback Thursday Story)

            I was talking to some of my staff that use to help me out in the past and it came to me how the heck did my now former series, The Entertainment Man Talk Show got it's name? I know this goes way before The Entertainment Man Talk Show started, actually before I discovered the YouTube platform. My friend Gordie found out I made videos Durham Entertainment Today days, he started to call me "Entertainment Man" and ever since it really stuck with me for years and yes I changed it after a while after YouTube but another story for another day. Probably about a year later after Eric quitting on me out of nowhere yet again, the talk show you guys know and loved for a good 6 oober long years called The Entertainment Man Talk Show. I just added The at the start of "Entertainment Man" and Talk Show at the end of it. Pretty much after calling it this, the rest is history and it ran for 6 long years. Hey! It was my talk show, as I was the producer, director and host of the series.


              So basically the series was named after my nickname that Gordie, aka muffler man gave me so I really have him to thank for for that as if I was never called "Entertainment Man" The Entertainment Man Talk Show probably would of never happened but I do not wanna wish that as it was a good series up to the drama at the very end but I have never told you guys how that series ever got it's name honestly. However, you now know how the show, the series I loved, Larry & Dave love how it got it's name actually. I know it was a long name for a series and was hard to hashtag on social media unless I ended up doing something like #TEMTS on Twitter but that is now long gone now and it has nearly been 3 years since the series got cancelled due to certain reasons. I hope you enjoyed today's little throwback story and it was a neat one to tell you all.

Found An DVD of My First Talk Show, I Ever Recorded (Flashback Friday)

             I was going through my DVD's back on Sunday and found the original project I did back in January 2006, which is little over 13 years ago when I did the project with Eric. I actually put it in the DVD Rom of my computer and watched it for old time sake. Felt so nostalgic looking back in the past especially that far back it was nice to look back and remember the good old days before I got into the world of YouTube.  This never made it to YouTube. nor was meant to go onto YouTube as it was a project for high school at the time. This is Pre-YouTube like I said, however less then a month later after the class saw it that is when I decided to continue on to make videos and did so all the way up to January 2008 when Durham Entertainment Today which was under another name at one point but I won't as I would be revealing where I actually live. After one episode changed my life forever because then I ended up becoming an YouTube which is all history later on. Now this episode, I never spoke about ever. Never when I was on YouTube nor on this blog but the secret is out there is a series that never went onto YouTube. I think I did post the 2nd episode but took it down pretty quick. 


                 This first episode pretty much pivot-able for us and the camera work was very, very sloppy but moi. Yes I was the idiot behind the camera so I can take the entire blame but don't forget, I didn't know a dang thing about recording a video or filming but we learned on the fly over the many years I was active creating video content  before YouTube and during but it took time to get a steady hand and plus it was the first episode so we had no clue what we were doing. However in the end the class enjoyed the 22 minute episode and that is the reason why I continued doing what I was doing for many years up to June of 2016 when that decision as you guys know that I made. In the end it is nice surprise to actually dig it out and I think I still have the O'Neill special still somewhere so maybe that will be the next thing to pull out but I would have to clear out my shelves as it probably is in a very skinny clear case so it is there I'm sure.

There Was A Moments I Staged Something and Running Jokes....

            There is so many secrets I would love to tell but some of them are best to keep a secret, especially the drama that actually happened on set which was never recorded minus that one scene that is posted up on my old YouTube and is one of two dramatic scenes captured on camera but for the most part it was done behind closed doors up to 2016 when I came out frustrated with my team in 2016 when staff quit. What do I really mean about the staged scene. It is the one where I purposely tripped and fell which I did also do a remix of me falling over several times which is really the beauty of editing actually which is great honestly. Also I never practiced it nor my team actually knew that I was going to do that which it was on all me during which I said I tripped which is actually in the video itself I tripped and nobody knew the actual truth behind it till this post coming out on this throwback Thursday edition of the blog so I have kept it quiet for all these years but now the truth is out and my staff I really never told them what really happened not yet at least but maybe one day I will have to tell the ones who were involved during the 2nd season of The Entertainment Man Talk Show.


                The second part of this throwback Thursday story is the running jokes on set like me saying s**t and my team telling me in the bathroom which occurred  once or twice during the series. Also picking on our friends in good humor, the St. Patrick's Day for example that was a fun episode and we had comments made. Cursing was a big thing as I really showed my true colors and my true self on set each and every episode and majority of the time I left in those moments in the episodes as majority of the time I wanted to capture the moments which there is another primary moment of me cursing at the lawn mower which now almost 10 years later, we still have that lawn mower and she is still working well for an old mower. Can always rely on your old mowers but I will do a old start cold start this spring when it is time to get her ready for the late spring/early summer time on Instagram TV. There are plenty of moments and if you guys enjoyed these neat stories from the days I was on set filming my series and I plan on coming up with some more down the road as well.

Funniest Moments On Set (Throwback Thursday Story)

             I originally had a Throwback Thursday story that was podcast related but you guys have already have had 2 days in a row now with podcast related content and I honestly need to change things up for this week but I do plan on doing that throwback Thursday story another week as I didn't realize I had too many of a similar topic.  Anyways today's post is about the funniest moments on set and I have a bunch of em I would like to talk today and  was talking about it back on Monday with Eric and he had to bring one of em up I will be talking about but there is another post I wanna talk to later as well and it is in the back of my mind. Anyways first of all I may as well bring this one up, Eric and the CD player after I opened it as it was still going round and round and he said whoa and a curse word which is still to this day on my old YouTube channel the # 1 viewed video with 300 + views will always be remembered as one of the best episodes that I will ever remember that I have ever recorded. Another episode is the running jokes and the constant cursing which mind you now if the group did exist still, now we wouldn't be able to curse like we were originally.


             There is jokes where we always poked fun at one another and I started to give Eric nicknames, Larry and Justin nicknames and the list goes on and on with the ways we always poked fun. There was a moment as I have spoken about this in a separate post but Larry flipping the bird at the camera which at first like I said, I wasn't happy at first but then I kind of laughed it off but it was a fun time even with Larry on set too. Also the constant pranks I pulled from Eric being booed on an intro on Ep # 27 to Dave's ex being booed on April Fools Day. We had so much fun on set and I tried to make it a fun experience but not everything was fun and games, there was days where I was stressed out and I sure wasn't afraid to let out my frustrations on set but other days I was cool as a cucumber. In retrospective, it was a fun time with the fun on set and the laughs, bloopers and goof ups and there is probably more moments but I am sure I cannot always fit it into a post but all the moments are indeed memorable.

Did I Enjoy Filming The Entertainment Man Talk Show?

              Did I enjoy filming or taping The Entertainment Man Talk Show???? Well this is quite a tough answer to give as you know, I had my up's and downs with the series, however that is not the right answer to give you guys. Yes I did enjoy filming the show and I know what you guys will say, weren't you mentally exhausted from the series with the planning? Yes of course, however I enjoy the actual filming end of the production, that is the more fun part of taping an episode, but planning and editing that has a stressful aspect of it, not so much. 


               The reason I loved to tape episodes was because of the craziness, the comments made, tons of cursing going on, we were always laughing on set and things that my staff and crew did that I never expected to see or said on the set. I admit season 2 the cursing was completely out of control but the viewership went up with the amount of cursing and with me bleeping it out. The moment Eric or myself cursing, it sure brought up the views on YouTube and the subscribers, it grew. There were moments where we kept on taping, capturing the moments of mistakes made on set. I admit the time I was tripping over and falling that was staged obviously as it was for mere entertainment.


                Being on set was so much fun with my team, expect the unexpected with being on set... Always not expecting what my team would say or do, so that was also fun to expect the unexpected on set. I will never forget any of the fun experiences on set and it truly has taught me what set life is like and the process I go through each and every time we shot an episode of The Entertainment Man Talk Show!

The Entertainment Man Talk Show Would of Turned 10 Years Old Today!

                Today would of marked 10 years since The Entertainment Man Talk Show started it's crazy adventure. Yes it is very sad to think almost a week and a bit marks 3 years since the series went from on a high note to a very low note as Larry and I wrapped up our very last episode taping ever in the history of the show not knowing it's future till June the very next year when the show went from on another hiatus to being completely cancelled and lost all episodes of Season 5 & 6. 


                Yes it still feels very much raw and there are days where I feel sad and feeling down. The reason is because I am thinking of the old show, the memories that I made with my friends, the laughs, the drama on set, but I will take what I learned as a YouTuber and take it to the Chris B On The Web and the way Operations run here in this one man studio of a studio now. I have spoken to my alumni about a mini reunion and it's going to happen hopefully this fall at some point and hopefully the studio is fixed up and looking better then before without the holes in the wall unit right across the wall. I am not making this get together a big deal but it is a way to celebrate the series success within the 4 seasons that are still out there to this day. I have said it before and I will say it again, I do miss my old YouTube life and the show all together but I am quite content with what I am up to this day now.


              Memories I have that will never go away, that is something I will always have for the rest of my life. I wish the series went the full stretch to the 10 year mark like I had planned originally but if it wasn't for certain 2 people quitting, the show probably more then likely would of continued on but yet Everything About Reality TV Wouldn't be at where it's at to this actual day. But I cannot thank the Team I had throughout it's 7 year's of it's long run of a web series, they helped me with the filming and production of the series, without them non of the episodes would be taped.

The Truth Behind The Entertainment Man Talk Show!

          There are things that I really never made clear as when I left The Entertainment Man Talk Show and YouTube career. I wanna make this clear to a few things that probably didn't seem real or I faked but let me say for the most part a lot of my out bursts at my team was entirely real, it was pure frustration with them, whether Eric said a bad word I said something or with me going off at them was pure frustration but the one thing that I faked was me tripping those two episodes but I cannot remember the exact episode numbers that it was but those two episodes were faked. The rest was purely frustration at times and trust me filming a talk show like The Entertainment Man Talk Show isn't as easy as you think and it was the most stressful thing I ever have done in my entire life and having to deal with some staff drama, no names to mentioned but that was another major factor behind it but that is the truth behind me supposedly tripping but it was entirely faked but me going off on camera numerous that was real. Some scenes like Gordie saying in the St Patties Day episode he would wear green but hes got nothing green in his closet. Of course me being a smarty pants like I am, saying yea except Shawn, Gordie saying hes just green to the gills, I just had to put in my 10 cents worth. There are memorable moments where something is said and it was an instantaneous comment that came out of my mouth or one of my teams that made a moment of laughter on set. 


             Now the last thing I want to touch on is why is there no longer Seasons 5 and 6? Well they are now lost episodes as they were lost as I forgot to download them when I decided to quit YouTube all together and go in the direction of podcasts. When I say they are lost, they are TOTALLY lost episodes and I feel nothing but bad this happened and if I had a time machine, I would go back in time and save all the videos and bring em back to the future or this present day of time. Regrets that Larry and I regret making is ending it after 6 seasons and move on with other things or start podcasting like I am doing sooner so that was our major fatal flaw we made. I knew the views were down anyways with the series and my channel pretty much died after nearly 10 years being on YouTube so no regrets leaving and I've been given crap about leaving but I've been with the platform for nearly that long and I was ready for change to be made, if people do not like it then then so be it, I had to do what I had to do.

My 10.5 Years As A Content Creator On YouTube!

Well I have been waiting for a long time to talk about my YouTube Career. This was a period of my life that spanned 10 and a half years and involved grinding out video and content.

The Early Years (2005 – 2008)

The journey began back on December 9th, 2005. I remember the date as I commemorate the auspicious occasion yearly. It started as I needed to do a project for High School. I was in my last semester in in school and I needed 40 credits to graduate with my High School Diploma. As someone with Autism I wasn’t suppose to but that is a different blog post for a different day. My teachers gave me an option to get the credits. I could either create a pitch for a new TV show or make a sample episode of a show. Deciding on the sample episode, I decided to try make a pardoy of The Amazing Race. But, as things tend to do in life, nothing went according to plan.
During my team’s production meetings, the we found some aspects to difficult so the plan changed to an entertainment show highlighting local events in Durham Region, Ontario.  So after the presentation in the class (which went amazingly well), my team and myself continued production on February 13th, 2006. At the time I was not on YouTube yet. March 19th, the project was on hold again. I ended up getting really ill and found myself in hospital for 4 days. The doctors had to perform a surgery to remove a blockage. I almost died for the second time in my life. This health blip put the production on hold until mid April.
Once things got rolling we recorded the 2nd episode and continuing on right through to the 16th episode the following year. As time went on, drama ensued amung the production team and our show, Durham Entertainment Today, only saw one full season filmed. Our second season was left with only 3 episodes recorded. The series stopped on January 10th, 2008. After more production team issues, I started up ‘The Entertainment Man Talk Show’. This was the start of my first ever YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/user/thedirector015 which still is online!


The Longest Web Series I Have Ever Done! (2008 – 2010)

The Entertainment Man Talk Show had a very successful 8 episodes. From the feedback, everyone loved the first season of the series on YouTube. That following fall, I renewed the series for a second season which had the longest running number of episodes at 42.  In Season 2, saw the expansion of the team and the return of the co-founder Eric of The Video Projects Team. We also grew the team by 3 additional staff members. The series saw another renewal for a third season.
For the first time in the show’s history, we got permission to film in a old firehall, a jail and live on stage for a theater performances. Season 3 saw a lot of on location filming during good weather. When the weather turned, we decided to stay put in the studio. Once the Season 3 finale a live broadcast finale on Stickam.com, ended I made the announcement that the series would go on Hiatus.
The Hiatus:
I took the hiatus to attend college and study pre-media. I was hoping it would help me advance my YouTube career. During the hiatus I lost the majority of my original team and gained 3 news people. Brent would replace the other camera crew that left the team and Justin would help me build the studio sets. I did a Bringing Back The Entertainment Man Talk Show at the Toronto Islands to get ready for my triumphed return. Also during the hiatus I did random updates and blogs and interviews to fill the void.


My Return & Final Years on YouTube (2012 – 2016):

I return to YouTube and The Entertainment Man Talk Show with really high hopes. A big stumbling blog was getting my audience back after being off the air for a 2 year period. During my time at college, I was introduced to better editing programs. This made the projects look better then they were before. We also introduced a full theme to the show at the end of Season 4. Season 5 and 6, Larry took over and did an amazing job until him and Eric quit and another staff member was let go. During June 2015, the last ever episode was filmed. There was plans for a 7th season but due to the team departing I decided to shut down production on June 21st, 2016.
It was at this time that I started to vlog. At one point, I managed to upload 600, maybe 700 days  worth of vlogging in a row. Why did I leave Youtube? There were a few. Mainly because after my staff left I just didn’t have the help I needed. It wasn’t because of hate or negative comments. I had very minimal hate but my departure from Youtube wasn’t because people made fun of me for being Autistic. I really didn’t care what people thought. My theory was that haters will hate. I am very grateful for my time with YouTube and learned so much about myself. Looking back, I have no regrets after leaving the platform.
