"It's one schmall schtep for pints, one giant pint... for yourself as well."

Very much glad he is back, was actually a bit concerned! (The channel that uploaded all his streams that he politely asked to take down before he uploaded loads to his own channel has come back, and I thought the lack of activity was something to do with that.) He did say he'd make new content once he passed the Patreon target and I would imagine this is it. Loving how it's in the Viper's World News/Viper's Views style of things with some kind of daft plotline chucked in. Jam For Freedom really do anger me though, KBF twats masquerading behind an image of making people's mental health better, in fact these type of twats make my own mental health worse. Anyway, yeah, all good stuff.

Streaming at the moment. Haven't seen him do a non gaming stream in ages, this is quite exciting.

That was great.  Lovely pay-off at the end. 

Sounds like he's been in a bit of a funk in real life these last couple of months, so nice to see him getting back to streaming again. 
God, he's funny.

I watched up until he was psyching himself up to get out of the car and discard of the toaster, went to do something for an hour, came back and he was half crying and circling back round in the car to make sure the toaster was OK. You've got to love the guy honestly.
Also seemed to break character at one point (albeit still in Shlug voice) to share how he finds it difficult to do streams and regular comedy skits, and feels a bit hollow just streaming games etc. So maybe we'll get more of his characters out and about or making 'proper' videos.

Magnum Valentino

Always got the feeling he enjoyed this sort of stuff the most. I actually remember seeing him have a proper breakdown and lashing out at someone who donated a huge amount during one of his gaming steams a few years ago. He has a real issue with some aspect of it that I don't think he knows how to articulate. I suspect there's a frustrated artist in there somewhere, and it has to be hard knowing you're only real option on the island is RTE and they're not interested. He's a naturally gifted comic with real imaginative momentum but he can't seem to turn it into anything lucrative. He clearly enjoys improvising and trying things out but it must get hard having sycophants parrot your stuff back at you for a couple of hours.

Kurt Cobain dealt with much of the same thing, but the toxic extra ingredient of actual financial success led to, well, you know.

yeah that's probably why he doesn't want to be on twitch.

such a shame he can't have a proper at making stuff for tv or radio. he's one of the funniest guys out there

anyway it was really nice to see him

Looked like a nice bit of fish.

Playing COD Warzone now with him singing over the top of it with autotune.

Some stunning green screen work going on tonight (featuring a hilariously-unconvincing 20-second loop of Tommy Shlug): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi3dLdaEJdI

It's a really clever wee solution though, the mask makes perfect sense and lets the illusion work

Did the YouTube police get him, or am I just late?

Streams gone due to a copyright claim by the FA.

Some right rib-tickling stuff in that stream. Billyroll stuff was tremendous.

Part 3 is gonna be insane, I wanna see it right now.

Yussef Dent

It's spilled out onto the Northerness account on Twitter, bloody hell, that's one really f***ing stupid individual.


Enzo

He's back on twitch now, a third attempt at getting rid of the toaster lol

Tommy in the studio and Francis on the phone from prison commentating on the Chelsea/Real Madrid game at the minute. 
https://www.twitch.tv/vipershnake

Christ, he's making some serious bank in the tips tonight. 

Doing some quality streamin at the minute, somehow having a seamless conversation between two characters, keeping an eye on the football, acknowledging tippers, adding to the ongoing story of Francis in prison and still finding time to eat a banana last night.
