Yo, my boi! It’s SamWitt! Glad to see you love DTRH too!

I actually see quite a bit of my younger self in andrew, taking a small fun project too seriously, thinking my minor successes will be my big break or make me better than others. This is a traitor I outgrew however, what was different in Andrews life that he felt he needed gamelife to be his big break? Did you guys ever have an incident like this? Love all of you

This was solid, I'd love to see you do more interviews in the future, Fredrick! Question for all, in your humble YouTube/Professional opinion, do you think a series with the quality/personalities of GameLife would have a chance on YouTube today? (Minor request Fredrick, could you keep us updated if any new information comes to light, like if any former members of GameLife come out and speak due to this Episode?)

For all of you: Do you think Game Life had any impact on how web series (gaming or otherwise) would be created? And if so, is there anything specific? Also to Larry: Congrats on being one of the last creators to remain on Channel Awesome. Glad to see you in a collab.

Larry was a great guest. As someone who has his own youtube channel, I am aware of what I can do. What part did they think that their "quality" of their content was good to just post up, and get so many views? Did they ever talk about it, and their reason why would be my question?

Hey Fred and Larry! I just wanted to tell you two did a great job on this episode! It was really cool to have you in there Larry, it was something different but a good different, i say the episode wouldn't be as good without you! <3 Okay my Question to Geoff (hope you're well!) Was there any Idea you had or Project you wanted to do back at GameLife then but could not because of various reason, and do you still wish to do it? Love, the Birbfriendo!

Question for all, what was the most interesting part of GameLife for each of you personally?

Question for Fredrik, were there any videos of GameLife that you could not find for this DTRH (lost videos) or were they all there in one form or another across the internet?

Question for everyone, I suppose: Let's say Andrew comes out of hiding next week and wants to start on Youtube again as a legitimate reviewer. Would he even have a shot? Would his history compel any kind of audience, or would he be quietly forgotten (provided he didn't provide a dramatic and explosive spectacle again)? For Geoff specifically: if he asked you to help him on his hypothetical new show, would you? Cheers.

Had the death threats in particular not occurred, do you think that GameLife would have updated and professionalized itself alongside other internet groups/personalities to ensure that it remained relevant, or do you think that it was always destined to end by Andrew’s ego in one way or another?

AllTheTrophies

Question for Fred and Larry: When were the both of you first exposed to Game Life’s original run, what did you think of it at the time, and how has that perspective changed?

Question for Geoff: What would you say to or ask the Game Life crew if you could meet them all together again now? Hope that’s not too personal.

SogekingVinesmoke

This is a question to Guru Larry (and also Fred is he has something to say on it): You've personally seen youtube evolve from the edgy, underground "alternative media", where the goal was to produce things not seen on TV, to now some youtubers eclipsing TV's popularity entirely. Do you think there's a danger of youtube becoming too corporate and safe to the point of viewer alienation, as it could be argued TV did which lead to the creation of these first niche interest youtube channels, and what do you think could be the next alternative media, if there is one at all? Apologies for the long question.

This question is for Guru Larry: The death threat debacle aside, of the four main Game Life personalities, which one did you think had the best shot of ultimately making it big in gaming media from the beginning?

Irvin

My questions are Guru Larry; how familar were you about Gamelife before recording the video, and did you come to Fred about being in a video or did he contact you?

This question is for Geoff: What is your fondest memory from Game Life and how do you think that impacted your view of the show?

I’ve come around to really liking the video after my initial thoughts. It’s a good little change of pace. My question is for Geoff: When did you first hear about Andrew’s incident in 2007 and what was your initial reaction?

Peter Melling

This episode's pretty good. I got a question: If GameLife got popular enough and wasn't prematurely ended by Andrew Rosenblum's bellicosity in 2007, do you think it could have gotten coverage by other media companies, like Channel Awesome/That Guy With the Glasses and Machinima.

NagaNos

I was very excited about this video, not gonna lie! Question for Larry, how was working with Fredrik on this collaboration? How did this differ from the stuff you usually post on your main channel? Also, really love your Fact Hunt series, keep up the good work :D

Great video as always! Can you elaborate more on the relationship between GameLife and Screwattack's Handsome Tom and Stuttering Craig? The video implies that Screwattack (or Handsome Tom, at least) held a grudge until the very end, and I'm wondering if there was more reason for their bitterness other than GameLife's response to their audition tape. Thanks!

Great episode man. This question is for Geoff: If you could step into a time machine that transported you back into your shoes during the height of Gamelife, but you retained all you know now, is there anything you’d try to change or do differently?
