Creator Commentary: Larry Nassar is in a Lot of Trouble + Update
Added 2023-07-31 04:37:30 +0000 UTCAnother Creator Commentary to hold ya over!
At 1:25:37 I give a bit of a recap of where the next project is at as of this writing, and I'll give the short version here too. The next video is on Sherri Papini, which though done to death I think I have a pretty nice concept for. There have basically been some "Matt can't catch a f#&!ng break" moments this last week BUT I think with proper workflow management I should still be able to complete it within August. If not, I'll make sure the next Commentary is done and up well in advance of the bill cycle so everyone knows what's up. If you're on the Discord, I'll also post pertinent updates there if necessary.
Thanks as always for your support and feel free to drop any questions or what have you below!

I have watched quite a bit of court tv and yes, there is pretty colorful stuff in US courts. Just type in "judge loses it" or something similar. For example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI032Qp3Pw0

2025-04-18 03:30:13 +0000 UTCJust wanted to say your tip about chores during the rest periods of home workouts is golden. I’ve been doing that for years, just wanted to provide a bit of corroboration haha. Keep up the great work!! ☺️

2025-04-17 04:25:32 +0000 UTCI kind of agree when you talk about how we should have a more humanitarian reaction to Larry being stabbed in prison, and then I hear Kyle Stephen’s testimony, and yeah I do feel a degree of satisfaction knowing the pain Larry felt while be stabbed. What can I say, I’m a Neanderthal.

2024-06-21 22:57:09 +0000 UTCYou're a brave man for ur criticism of the judge but I also agree. I thought this when watching the original video but wasn't about to post that in the yt comment section.

2024-04-29 05:49:03 +0000 UTCI was quite disappointed to see that the original video was removed from YouTube. I've gone back through your channel a few times and managed to rewatch every single video, and it felt like censorship to see this one in particular gone, and for such a silly reason no less. I think, perhaps, we can consider our own feelings as spectators much too important considering the context. You're right, there's no better way to say what he did than with that crude language. I imagine most people in the true crime audience agree, after all, it's not as if the content itself is the most comfortable thing in the world in premise alone. I'm glad it's still available to watch here, as well as The Devil and Thomas Chan. I thought I was going crazy over that one for a while. What a wonderful workout tip. I only just began working out early last year, and it has been engaging enough not to get too distracted, but there are definitely times when I need to rest longer. I never thought of how productively I could use that time. On judge Aquilina(pardon if my spelling is wrong, I did no research lol), I admit I was dubious at first about her grandstanding, but the longer it went on, the more I agreed. I guess I just never thought about it before because in my opinion, professionalism aside, Nassar just seems like the type of douchebag that deserved a judge like that. Sorry for the long rant, I swear I'm almost done. Next time, definitely pick yourself up an SSD if you need to mail one in! HDDs are notorious for suffering damage from movement, whereas SSDs have no moving parts at all and won't be affected.

2024-01-08 20:27:36 +0000 UTCIt's a shame. These crimes should be spelled out in all excruciating detail, without any of the words or descriptor that have an overlap with normal sexual acts and relationships. euphemistic language plays a part in why sexual offenders get the benefit of the doubt so often. Contrary to the popular consensus, most people seem to default to minimising and imagine victims complicit.

2023-08-29 23:56:41 +0000 UTCHe matt, how is the Sherri pappini video coming along? I can't wait to see your coverage of it:)
Kurt Bockhausen
2023-08-29 17:13:51 +0000 UTCDoes this mean Russell Williams is next? Defo looking forward to that commentary

2023-08-12 11:19:37 +0000 UTCThat may well be the case - I can only speculate. Organic or otherwise though, the end result is the same. In it's current state the vid just wasn't doing anything to help the channel.
Matt Orchard
2023-08-11 03:44:57 +0000 UTCIt's a Patreon exclusive now (for reasons discussed in the commentary) if you scroll down here you'll find it :)
Matt Orchard
2023-08-11 03:43:49 +0000 UTCThe original, not the commentary-- sorry if that was not clear.
Patrick Callahan
2023-08-11 03:40:06 +0000 UTCWhy can't I find this video on your channel? It sounds like other people are able to view it, but when I go to the Matt Orchard Channel -> Video Tab, I don't see it anywhere. Ctrl+F for 'Nassar' returns 0/0 results as well. Any thoughts?
Patrick Callahan
2023-08-11 03:39:40 +0000 UTCHey just a thought. I think this video was not suppressed. It’s always been the most difficult to watch for me. I don’t know why but I just never was able to rewatch it like your other videos. My guess is that it is something more organic that kept it from doing well.

2023-08-09 11:59:38 +0000 UTCGreat commentary, I've never thought about the Judge's behaviour before but it is definitely showboating. The only other Judge I can think that loved the limelight as much is Judge Ito from the OJ trial
Julie Gray
2023-08-06 00:23:27 +0000 UTCAgreed - I think I've seen that case covered way too many times, but Matt's was by far the best.

2023-08-05 13:23:31 +0000 UTCI actually loved this episode, I thought it was the best Larry Nassar retelling I have seen. I thought it was really inspiring hearing the stories from the victims. You did an incredible job showing what a total scumbag this person is. I had NO idea how many balls were dropped by the very people these girls were trusting. It's truly disgusting.

2023-08-05 04:02:19 +0000 UTCNice Kayleigh, let me know how it goes!
Matt Orchard
2023-08-03 01:25:19 +0000 UTCI have never seen a judge act like her, and I watched the Darrell Brooks trial! You would think Larry’s team could even argue for an unfair trial.. and are the snide comments really worth losing a conviction, or a release under appeal later!? Unbelievable, but I loved your work out at home advice! 😂 I will definitely give it a go

2023-08-03 01:04:24 +0000 UTCHey thanks so much Kurt, that's really generous of you! Much appreciated :)
Matt Orchard
2023-08-02 00:16:32 +0000 UTCEvery one is good — so the wait is definitely worth it. But man that Halderson video is a classic!
J West
2023-08-01 23:07:05 +0000 UTCHaha , yeah I have seen it now. At the end of the day, regardless of how we each feel about it individually, it makes no difference on a grander scale. Nassar made his choices, and this was one of the consequences of his actions. I don't wish harm on him, but I certainly don't feel bad about what happened.

2023-08-01 16:36:34 +0000 UTCAlso I just want to say it's awesome that you actually interact with your patreons and post regularly for us, I'm bumping my membership up to 5$ a month.
Kurt Bockhausen
2023-08-01 12:38:24 +0000 UTCGood strategy! Idk why It seems like you guys would get along if you met, your humor is definitely similar. I can't wait to see your take on Sherri pappini!:)
Kurt Bockhausen
2023-08-01 12:35:16 +0000 UTCThanks J! I'm doing them chronologically, so Chandler is a ways away, but we will get there!
Matt Orchard
2023-08-01 05:47:37 +0000 UTCNever interacted with Scott personally, and I usually try not to watch his vids if it's a case I know I'll be covering (avoiding influence) - however, it was via him that I discovered Denise WIlliams' interrogation was online :)
Matt Orchard
2023-08-01 05:46:33 +0000 UTClol, I went another way with it sorry - but I understand the sentiment!
Matt Orchard
2023-08-01 05:13:04 +0000 UTCOh I know - it’s a favorite of mine. I was referring to the creator commentary. “Chandler Halderson is remarkably stupid” is one of the best Matt lines
J West
2023-08-01 00:16:24 +0000 UTCMatt already did a video on Chandler Halderson. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/ozdL1lEA3Bg

2023-07-31 23:34:14 +0000 UTCLove this CC! Nassar deserves everything he has coming to him. I’m with you Matt - I have a hard time celebrating his recent shanking…but I kinda don’t feel bad in any way, shape or form. This guy is beyond disgusting. On a side note, REALLY looking forward to Chandler Halderson whenever that comes up.
J West
2023-07-31 21:40:46 +0000 UTCLove these commentaries!
Kevin Fox
2023-07-31 19:55:30 +0000 UTCDo you know Scott sharp from the channel true crime loser and JCS personally? I've noticed that you cover alot of the same criminals he has, atleast nasser, Sherri pappini, brooks, holtzclaw and others
Kurt Bockhausen
2023-07-31 18:41:11 +0000 UTCGreat job Matt!
Kurt Bockhausen
2023-07-31 18:38:01 +0000 UTCThere was that one judge that beat up the public defender for not waving speedy trial…
Katie Fortner
2023-07-31 17:41:12 +0000 UTCI haven't got around to watching yet, but I hope the update is regarding Nassar's recent comeuppance with a shank. I don't usually wish harm upon others, but there is a special place in hell for this monster.
