Yes it was your CA stream that caught my attention but you're entire channel is amazing! Keep up the good work and I am excited to see what you do next!

Yeah I've always been a worrier. =P

Messages are the best place to put those. Helps me sort through them easier.

Yeah, this whole debacle was a huge unlikely mistake, though in the end I think things have turned out okay. Even so, I'm not sure my nerves could take another for a while to come. =P I know I've been bad at taking care of myself, but I'm really going to try to make sure I'm okay this time.

Fredrik Knudsen

Thanks, doggo <3

Fredrik Knudsen

Ahah, thanks man. <3 And don't worry, I've got some truly amazing pieces of crap lined up for the livestreams.

Fredrik Knudsen

Well, in my videos, I typically don't even take the middle ground; I don't take ANY ground. But in this case, I did take a stand, and many people were unhappy with it. People can agree with me most of the time, but if they disagree with me once, they are unlikely to ever return, and every time I were to do something like this, there would be a group of people whom I would lose forever. For me, personally, it's not worth the stress, especially with my public perception. My other livestreams are probably going to be a lot less intense than this. =P

I agree, Elise's insight is always amazing, we'll spend hours talking late into the night. Actually, she and I are planning on doing a shorter-form podcast in the near future on art-related topics. As for livestreams, they'll probably be significantly less topical in the future. I've got a few pieces of terrible media in the public domain that I'll be showing down the line in livestreams.

Fredrik Knudsen

You'r worrying too much mate. Everything is fine.

Jake Hanrahan

Suggestions, you say? Is there a specific place to put those?

I loved the streams personally, and they're what finally convinced me to go from passive youtube subscriber to patron, but I also recognize that the circumstances of these streams were so incredibly specific, like, the timing of the Spoony video, the document release, the escalation of nonsense, the wide audience of people who know or knew Channel Awesome and therefore had an emotional investment in the fallout... I'd be surprised if such an opportunity cropped up again anytime soon. Take the time you need! As much as I love your videos, we won't get to have any if you're too stressed to rest!

Shawna Lee

That's alright, take time for yourself right now Freddo! <3

Bleh, I had to rewrite what I posted since I watched your progress update. I can understand why you're distancing yourself from livestreams on current topics. I watched your videos back during the early days, it feels like you do well at keeping to the middle ground when it comes to an opinion topic. The livestream itself, you seemed more fixated on the rhetoric in the document, pointing out little things that I completely agree with. Although, I can really see the downside of going into a hot topic, trying to keep a neutral opinion with two sides shouting at you. Hopefully, you find something new to get into, and I hope that your future lifestreams don't get this heated. I wish I could offer an idea, but I am still running on empty.

If you do plan on doing any further livestreams, of what nature would they be? I personally really enjoyed your stream with Elise McCall and am looking forward to any collaboration between y'all! The energy you guys had was really pleasant, and between the both of you i thought your analysis of the sonichu comics was really interesting and insightful!
