Band of Brothers Update (Patreon)

Hi y'all. I have sadly decided not to continue releasing edited reactions to Band of Brothers. I know a good few of you joined Patreon for BOB so I will complete the full length reactions for you all here.

I hope you will understand and I'll give a bit of behind the scenes reasoning. Simply put I'm not having fun with it. Now I wouldn't expect war to be fun and on a show level it has been an interesting show to watch. So it's not that but it's the emotional input and output that is too much.

The recordings themselves take a lot out of me. Which I made my peace with. But the comments on YouTube are draining on a whole new level. Most comments make me feel like I'm being talked at. (It seems a lot of the comments are simply copy and pasted from one youtubers reaction to the next sometimes even forgetting to change the name.) And some just take a tone that drain me. I've tried to be honest that I don't know a lot about war but somehow this lack of knowledge opened a door for people to make me feel less than as a person.

So with a reflection on the community I wish to build, this is not the kind of content I want to produce.

In a sea of so many reactors I want to stay authentic and I feel like I'm walking on egg shells watching Band of Brothers. And I think there are many other reactors out there that are huge fans of watching media centered around war. But I am not one of them. And while the views are good the community it is attracting makes me not want to even open up the YouTube app to respond to comments. (This is a generalized comment. Not a reflection of everyone who is showing up to watch these reactions.)

At the end of the day, I'd only be continuing for the views but I don't want to sell out like that and I hope you can appreciate that. I've got so many things I'm deeply excited about sharing and I've felt the drain of BOB on my daily life so it's just time to close the chapter.

Thank you for understanding.
