COuld someone give me a summation of what he said? I don't quite feel comfortable watching considering the last amount of bullcrap statements coming from people accused of such things? He's basically saying that he's attending therapy, going to start going to sex addiction meetings, and volunteering at events. He says he doesn't know if he wants to come back to YouTube because it's not healthy for him and that he's had issues with self-esteem and such for a long time. I mean, I'm glad he's getting some help. Taking nothing away from what he did, I don't like to write off people who seem to genuinely feel remorse for what they've done and Adam appears to want to be a better person. I think we've seen the entire spectrum of responses to this recent exposing of shitty behavior, from Kevin Spacey's "Look over here" bullshit to actual attempts to downplay the seriousness; seeing someone own up to their shit and make effort to get help puts them in a slightly better light for me.

Yeah, I'm glad he's at least owned up to it and didn't try and justify it. The only thing is that I hope he keeps this up and it's not just words he's saying.

Meanwhile, it appears Ben and Tiny Peter have left as well.
Eventually it's just going to be Jules at this rate.

I liked Ben and Tiny Peter. So it's pretty much Jules and that bloke from the gaming channel ?
And Jules was hilarious as Jack's ass-pounding henchman.

It's pretty much Jules, Ben, a couple of Adams and Hobo Joe at this point.

Cultaholic hires Maffew Gregg. Makes sense really. Huh. I mean, he’s not a bag of charisma but his wit is sharp enough to somewhat fill the Blampied hole. Good signing.

Makes sense. Boosts Cultaholic by association with Botchamania, and Maffew's bloody entertaining in his own right in stuff like his work with OSW.

Ah neat. I've always had good interactions with Maffew, back when we used to talk now and again, so, happy for him.

Their last couple videos have been pretty good. Ironically WhatCulture also seems to be much better off with Simon handling most of their wrestling content.

Never paid any attention to WhatCulture the non whatculture offshoot but with Maffew there I certainly will now.

The ironic thing about that, though, is that with the people they’ve brought in to do news videos and such in Newcastle, most of the list content is done by someone who is essentially doing this as a side job in London in his own place.

Im sorry if I’m being the ugly American, but that’s Greek to me.

Im sorry if I’m being the ugly American, but that’s Greek to me. Newcastle is where WhatCulture are based with an actual office and everything. Simon’s based in London where his bread and butter’s video game content on his own Patreon funded channel as well as occasionally on Sky News for their technology show. It’d be like if WWE had an office of people who could do some of the video content in Stamford but it was all done by Scott Stamford even though his bread and butter’s doing the nightly news for local TV in New York.
