Lets play some Tekken!

One of the perks of being a Patron is that I'm willing to let YOU kick my ass at Tekken 8.

I was thinking about setting up a lobby this weekend for Patrons/discord members, and if there's enough interest, maybe we even make it a recurring weekly game.

Feel free to add me on Steam and if there's enough interest, we can work out a Time that suits people and have a few rounds. Fair warning: I am terrible at this so if youre a genuinely competitive player, this will be a ca...

Lineal update #2!

What's good Just Bleed crew! Welcome to the 2nd of what will no doubt be a scintillating series of video updates where i tell you how slowly progress is going! 

So as of this evening, I have approx 22:47 of work completed. About 16 minutes of that is actual, completed video footage, and the rest is just bare voiceover waiting for me to add music and video to. It definitely feels like its been slower work than usual this time, i feel like i should be further along than I am currentl...

Lineal update #1

Good evening gang!!

Welcome to the inaugural update for the next video! I know it's been a bit quiet here lately, I'm still kinda bleary-eyed from the Christmas break, and the last few weekends have been pretty busy too, so I haven't had a huge amount of time for my usual Sunday night updates, but with a bit of luck I'll get back on a weekly update basis from now on.

The video is coming along slowly buy surely, it's strange but after the break and taking a few weeks off from writi...

Aw shit. Here we go again.

Rough edit of an intro for the next video. I promised myself I'd take January off but just when i thought I was out, they pull me back in.

because i didn't put the musicians name in the video:

Artist: Holy Fawn

Track: Death is a relief

see you beautiful bastards soon

Post Xmas end of year wrap up

Happy holidays gang!

I hope all of you have had a good one so far and none of you got sacrificed to Crom Cruach over the festive season. It's been a relatively busy few days for myself, just visiting family, buying presents, the usual shit, but I've finally got a few minutes to sit down and try and do a bit of a year end wrap up!

It was a pretty great year for the channel, all things considered. I put out 7 videos, 6 of which were "main" videos, and 1 non-standard video, that bein...

2023 GETS BLOWNAPART - LIVE NOW!

Its finally done!

Password: DIMMAK (all caps)

Please let me know if you come across any weird glitches with this one. I had a literal nightmare trying to get this rendered. My software kept crashing mid-render, and while I've gone over it and looked for  any issues, some may have escaped me.

But other than that, happy Christmas. See you all in the debriefing post soon. 

FINAL XMAS UPDATE!

Good evening gang!

Well, this is it. The final update. I hope to have the video done and out for Patrons by, if not tomorrow night, then Tuesday at the latest. I've got some goofy post credits shit I hope to add to it tomorrow, but once that's done, then its just time to render and upload. 

The final video is about 1hr 15 minutes, and its... its a lot. I wont spoil anything but I guess if you saw last years EOY video, its like that, but on whatever steroids McGregor is allege...

Xmas update #4!

Good evening all!

Just a quick one today, but at least I've got a brief snippet of video for you rather than just boring text. Sprinkled throughout the video are this years Blowie award winners, and I've uploaded one for you here. Please enjoy!

So the full video is now roughly about an hour and 20 minutes. The last 20 minutes are still waiting to to be actually properly edited as currently all it is is audio. I'm kinda hoping to have it done maybe by this weekend or early next wee...

SAPP TIME CONTEST WINNER!

Congratulations to Ash! Your Sapp Time Fact™ was my favourite and as such you have been DM'ed a link to an early preview of the end of year video!

Thank you everyone for your Sapp Facts! I hope to do more dumb shit like this in future as a reward for all the support from you guys.

NOW YOURE TURNING INTO THE BEAST!

Xmas update #4

Good evening Just Bleed gang!

It's been a bit of a trying week. We had some literal race riots in Dublin on Thursday night. After an attack on some kids on Thursday afternoon, a bunch of racist pieces of shit seized on the attackers ethnicity and staged a full scale riot. I've never been less proud of my city than seeing that shit.

On the video side of things, I've spent the last few days trying to finish off the TUF supercut, which is going live on youtube in approx 45 minutes. T...

TUF PART 1 - DIRECTORS CUT - Available now!

Hey gang!

Sop its not the Supercut just yet, as I'm still doing a bit more work on that, (hopefully have it finished by tomorrow though) but the fully re-worked version of Part 1 of the TUF trilogy is finished, so I've uploaded it for patreons.

This features fully re-recorded vocals, all new artwork for the drunk episode segment, and a totally new in memoriam section for Bonnar.

The embedding seems a bit screwy so if it isn't working, here's a direct link: 2023-11-24 18:49:36 +0000 UTC View Post

Drunk Episode remaster teaser

I'm so impressed with the work these guys are doing with the art for the Drunk episode recut, that I just had to share a brief snippet from the whole thing here. The final art came in today, so all that's remaining now is to record a new ending for the Stefan Bonnar segment, so hopefully this will be done relatively soon. 

Enjoy!

Xmas update #2!

Good evening all! 

I just realized I missed my usual Sunday night update, so wanted to give you a quick update on where I'm at with the End of Year video.

This is now shaping up to be a pretty major video, so I would expect it to weigh in at no less than an hour at this point. I've only just begun editing the segment for May, and the video is already 35 minutes long. Compare that to last years End of Year video, which was only 36 minutes long in total!

It's going to be ...

Ancient crappy videos are now on Vimeo!

Good evening Just Bleed gang! So a lot of you, for some sadistic reason I cannot comprehend, have been asking for my very first videos. The Charles Bennet, Anderson Silva and BJ Penn ones. I will go on record right now as saying these videos absolutely fucking STINK, but seeing as people asked for them, I've uploaded all three to Vimeo now. There is no password, but there really should be as these things are... woof.

BJ Penn Video is here: 2023-11-16 00:04:43 +0000 UTC View Post

Xmas Update #1!

Good evening Gang!

Welcome to the inaugural update for the end of year video! Kinda hard to believe were only like 7 weeks away from 2024, but I have a bit of a mental roadmap for the end of year video now, and hope to have it out by around mid December.  I just finished writing January and Februarys round ups today, tho I'll probably have to pare back on some of the less important news stories as i go on, as January was almost 16 minutes long by itself. Mostly thanks to the news o...

I back

Trust me, I back.

Good evening friends! Welcome back to another Patreon update. So it's been a few weeks now since TUF 3 dropped, and just wanted to catch you all up on what's been going on since I wrapped that one up.

So first and foremost, I've done fucking nothing for the last 3 weeks, and it's been wonderful. I got to actually play, and finish and entire videogame, which is a rarity nowadays. Cyberpunk: Phantom Liberty is damn good by the way! Highly recommend it, especially i...

Post TUF debriefing

Good evening Just Bleed crew!!

So TUF is done and I can properly take a minute to try and write an actual update where I don't have hyper ADHD brain trying to focus on 10 things at once.  

It's a relief to have the video finally done, It was a lot of fun to make, but given the massive amount of stuff to cover, it was stressful too as I was constantly worried about missing stuff or if i should really be covering all of the series instead of just the ones I find interesting, bu...

TUF 3: ENHANCED EDITION - AVAILABLE NOW!

Good evening!

TUF 3 EE is up now. Password is the same as regular version, DIMMAK (all caps)

Please enjoy!

PSA: TUF 3 Enhanced Edition is coming this evening

Hey everyone,

Just a quick note to say the EE of TUF 3 will be out this evening. There are a few improvements, I’ve fixed a few errors such as saying Tony had a 13 fight win streak (it was actually 12), I’ve re-recorded some lines that I think sound better/funnier, added some missing graphics (the album of elevator music by Coldplay for example), I re-edited the ending sequence and changed some music, upgraded my web browser to thugscape navigator and a few other tweaks here and the...

SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKERS TUF 3 IS UP NOW

PASSWORD: DIMMAK (all caps)

Yeah so I thought that would take a lot longer than it did but here we are. If I tinker any more or alter the script any more it'll take another month. Just a couple of things to note, there are one or two screw ups i need to fix. I said Tony Ferguson had a 13 fight win streak but its actually 12. At one point when talking about Uriah hall there's about 10 seconds of jsut blurred background cause i forgot to insert the graphics. One or two other small editing...

TUDdate: ENDGAME

Good evening everyone! 

As the title suggests, this weekend, The Decline and Fall of The Ultimate Fighter has finally entered its endgame. After a few pretty mammoth writing and editing sessions, the script has more or less been finished. I need to polish it up a bit as there's still some clunky sentences in there, but id say its pretty much at like 97% completed. Currently its a little over 11K words long, and the whole thing has ballooned to 2 hours. How it came to this I have no...

TUFdate: 2 TUF 2 Furious

First off: Valentina won that fight. That 10-8 was...  fuck.

Now that that's said, good evening! I hope all of you are doing well. I'm sorry I didn't have time for an update last week, but I've just been pretty much flat out working on the video these last few weeks, and haven't really had time even for the updates I'm afraid. I had crunched the numbers and realized that it's been 2 months since Dux went live which kinda lit a fire under my ass to get this one done, as I w...

TUFdate #3 and 100k thank you

Well we finally did it gang, 100k strong. First and foremost while there are 100k subscribers, there are only a few hundred of you guys, and regardless of subscriber count on Youtube, you guys right here on Patreon are the real ones. Clicking a subscribe button is easy, actually going the extra step and supporting the work of someone you like financially is a lot harder.

Still, it is nice to hit a big milestone like that. It's pretty hard to believe even still. I always go back to those...

TUFdate #4!

Whats up gang!

We're back with another belated Sunday night TUFdate, this time, on a Wednesday!

Progress remains steady, but still nowhere near as much as I'd like. Mrs. B has been back in the US for the last 4 weeks, so i kinda stupidly thought I'd have way more time to work on the video as she isn't here for me to hang out with during the evenings so what else am I gonna do, but didn't factor in that without her at home I am basically doubling my own work around the house... so ...

TUFdate #2!

Good evening everyone!

TUF Chat!

I know it's been a couple of weeks since the last TUFdate, and i missed a few Sunday night updates, but I had a very good reason for not posting... Baldurs Gate 3. I'm sure most of you can sympathise.

But here we are! Back again. BG3 hasn't taken away from video editing in the slightest, and I hit the 30 minute mark today. This one feels a bit like the TUF 2 video, in that after 15 minutes of TUF talk, I dive off into a tange...

TUFdate #1!

What's up everyone! 

So its that time again, video production has finally ramped up to a point where there's actually some identifiable footage to tell you about. I'm up to roughly 18 minutes of recorded dialogue, with about 10 minutes of completed video, in just a little over 1 weeks worth of work!

Its kicking off with a brief recap of life in the early 2010s, and straig...

TUF 3 video is go

Just a quick one to officially confirm TUF 3: The TUFFENING is under way. Here's a first draft of the intro, its short, as I wanted to dive right in on this one so there's no real preamble or anything, and its more of just an extended musical intro. This will definitely not make the cut on YouTube as the music will get it shot down immediately, but I've loved this track since i was like, 20, and was determined to use it in one way shape or form, so it'll be there in the Patron version!

Sunday night no video updates

What the fuck is up Dennys, 

So first off, shoutout to the homie who makes the webcomic "The Tomato Can" who put a channel easter egg into one of their issues! (zoom in on the vest of the guy with the mustache in the image above if you're on mobile, it might be a bit too small to see otherwise) The Tomato Can | WEBTOON (webtoons.com) It still amazing to me to see little rand...

Post Dux FBI NINJA CIA DEBRIEFING

What's up gang!

It is with no small sense of relief I am writing this post video release update. I've been stressing over this video now for ages, I was worried it wasn't as good as the other FF&C entries, or that people wouldn't give a shit about a video about a guy who hasn't been relevant since the 80's, was worried the production was taking too long, you name it.

But the reception from all of you over the last week has been genuinely fantastic, thank you to all of you who ...
