Before YouTube. Before millions of subscribers. Before Friday Night Tights — Gary Buechler, better known as Nerdrotic, had a story almost nobody knew. It starts at Folsom Prison, a neighbor’s jar of pennies, and a double-murderer cellmate who wouldn’t leave him alone.
His memoir is called Waiting For. That title alone should tell you something. He sat down with AJ in The Basement and held nothing back. Watch to the end. Here’s more from The Why Files.
“For some mysterious, unknown reason, YouTube shadow-banned this video—so I had to take it down, re-edit, and now it’s back in all its glory!
Enjoy this Def Leppard “Hysteria” parody with my twist. 😉

The Jubilee YouTube channel sat Jillian Michaels from The Biggest Loser in the middle of 20 body positivity activists this week and told her to defend the claim that obesity is not healthy. What followed was one of the most entertaining things I’ve seen in a while.
The eating disorder therapist, appearing on the show “Surrounded,” refused to say the word obese. She announced she was going to say “fat-bodied” instead, then admitted she wasn’t actually a medical expert. The dietician declared she doesn’t encourage weight loss because it’s unethical. One activist blamed BMI on white men. And then there was Leopard Print — who waddled up to the debate chair, announced she could sleep with anyone she wants, and argued that the word obese was invented to oppress her.
Jillian Michaels did not flinch once. When she looked at Leopard Print and told her she saw a life or death situation sitting in front of her, the absolute audacity of it was genuinely impressive.
SugarTits and I break down the whole spectacular circus — the thumb clicking, the dietician who won’t help you diet, the white men who apparently made everyone fat, and the woman who wore an entire leopard population to a debate about body image. LET’S GO!! Here’s more from Bearing.
We all know how the CIA and Rockefeller Foundation try to silently influence culture by supporting content creators to push new technologies or social trends.
But what happens when those supporters and creators collide? Who handles the censorship? How can you have a nuanced conversation when different parties have arrived at a log jam?
Here’s a case study from Mike Benz. The focus is on Bill Gates and his synthetic meat, and Elon Musk and his Martian rockets, as well as the biggest YouTuber around –Mr. Beast.
In this episode, James Li exposes the artificial machinery propping up Ben Shapiro’s media empire at the Daily Wire. Li opens with a forensic analysis of “zombie” videos that accumulate millions of views with statistically impossible engagement ratios. He also gets into the alleged exploitation of YouTube ad loopholes designed to mask a massive subscriber exodus.
Ultimately, Li reveals how the self-proclaimed champions of the “free market” are relying on billionaire capital and algorithmic manipulation to manufacture the illusion of influence while organic independent media continues to rise. In other words, the Daily Wire has been hoisted by its own petard, and remains shipwrecked on rocky shores.
Millions of YouTube channels have been deleted this year, with over 7 MILLION getting gone in the last quarter alone. YouTube’s official explanation is that those channels violated something and were mostly from Southeast Asia (aka India.)
But is that REALLY what is going on here? Has their AI moderation run amuck? Or is there something more sinister going on here? Is YouTube purging “dead weight” to get the platform ready to take on Netflix? Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
YouTube has gone on another banning spree, including a Pokemon content creator who was banned by AI moderation for stealing… his own content?!
Even MoistCr1TiKaL has begun calling out YouTube over their seemingly insane and random channel deletions. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Mike Benz doesn’t dive into a rabbit hole. He goes spelunking in a mammoth cave system, linking the CIA with Mr. Beast, the biggest YouTube channel on the planet, as well as Hollywood, via The Truman Show.
All as a prelude to how the CIA has pushed mass immigration into the United States, as in the Somalis, and done dodgy business to control the global coffee and wheat markets.
This is not an agency that benefits anyone, but instead, a ruthless global conglomerate hellbent on manipulation and control. Yes, indeed, it’s time this agency was wiped out, to be replaced by something more human and more manageable.
YouTube has changed drastically in 2025, and not for the better, according to a lot of content creators.
Dropping views, plummeting ad rates, nonsensical channel bans and AI moderation running amuck have been just the beginning of what is looking like the END of the YouTube we’ve all come to know these past 20 years. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
