So i wrote a line in the script about something being about as popular as a spoken word album by Tito Ortiz, which i thought was such a good idea i fired up photoshop to make an album cover to slap in the video at that point. It made me laugh, so i figured id share it with you guys 😁

Hello all!
A big thanks again for another month of support from you guys. So thought it only right i give you a quick update on the next video. I've uploaded a tiny edit i made to the intro, this is going to be the very start of the intro, i wanted to keep an early 2000s theme going, what with pride being formed in 97 and hitting its stride with the 2000 GP, i thought a CRT TV playing all the hits of the early 2000s before tuning into Pride might be a cool way to start, so here it...

Hey all
Just a small update, I've pretty much finalized the intro now, bar some small editing, (i know ill probably fine tune some of it before the video is done), but for now here you go! There's a proper end sequence now, and i added in a bit of footage i ripped from the Playstation 2 Pride FC game!! Also i just spotted it says "Waderlei Silva" at one point so definitely have to fix that 😂
Favourite part however, was finding a Pride VS UFC manga that i had no idea exist...

Hey all
Just been working on this since yesterday. Its obviously still a work in progress, lots of editing to do and it isn't even the finished intro (its just ends abruptly lol), but figured id give you a quick look.
Also, if you guys have Pride stories you'd like to see covered in the video, let me know!! This is a fairly massive topic so any help with the research is appreciated
Enjoy!

God damn! So its 2 weeks since i uploaded The Madness of Make Believe Martial Arts. It was tracking well for the first week with 10k views, slightly below the Jones / McGregor videos, but whatever. It's a niche topic so i figured it wouldn't be as popular. Normally with these videos, for me, i see a big spike in views when they're released, and then they trend downward after a week or so until there's only maybe 1-200 views per day and that's where they stay.
About a week after TMOMBMA ...
2021-10-09 12:52:56 +0000 UTC View PostBecause I'm all out of ideas 🤣
Just kidding. I just wanted to post to say thanks to all of you for your support and give a quick status update.
So its just about a week since the last video came out, and I've taken a week off work (both real work and video making) to catch up on some videogaming (Yakuza 7, i will finish you eventually) and have a bit of downtime.
The response to the latest video has been great. Real talk, I didn't know what to expect. It was easi...

Hey all!
Ive just put the finishing touches on the first segment of the next video. Its about 15 minutes long and just covers the intro, Count Dante, and Ashida Kim. It needs a little more spit and polish and I'd love your feedback/criticism etc, anything to make it that bit better.
Let me know what you liked/didn't like, and above all, please enjoy!
As always with exclusive patreon stuff, please don't share the link!

Hey all,
Just wanted to give you a brief update to let you know how things are going. So the next video, which i initially said would be a shorter, quicker to produce video, has predictably ballooned worse than Conor's foot. Its about 25 minutes in now and has covered about 3 famous martial arts conmen (yes, Steven Seagal is in there!).
I haven't even gotten as far as Lloyd Irvin yet, and that's going to be the real meat of the video. But honestly it is kinda hard to switch ...

This is literally the first draft of this, i uploaded it just to see if the music would get copyright struck, but figured id share it with patrons!
It's very rough around the edges, and honestly i wasn't even gonna make an intro for this video, but as the scope of the story has expanded from just Lloyd Irvin to cover fake martial arts in general, i figured id make one.
Enjoy!

Okay, so after promising myself id take a few weeks break after the Conor video, its only one week later and I've been buzzing about this idea now for days 😂
I know a lot of people had been asking for a Joshua Fabia video, and personally, i always wanted to make a bullshit martial arts video. But those are two subjects i think other people on YT have already done way better than i ever could. But then i was given a great suggestion by Darcewing_Duck about doing a video on Lloyd Irvin...
2021-08-22 18:05:54 +0000 UTC View PostMan, its been a crazy weekend since uploading the Conor video.
Well, not really crazy, i basically sat around the house playing videogames and eating cereal in my underwear, but just a bit surreal seeing how well the video is doing. I know by contrast to big channels i follow, its nothing, as they would have 100K views on a video in a day, but to me it's crazy. Humble in Victory.. has had almost 15k views in 3 days, and aside from the odd "youre a hater, loser" comments, it's all ...

but clearly someone at youtube has taken pity on me and changed up my recommendations 😂😂
2021-08-13 15:49:05 +0000 UTC View PostSo the Conor video is finished, it's uploaded to youtube now, and ready to go live. And i don't want to spam up the YT community posts with stuff so lucky patrons, you get treated to a 1am blog post lmao
There's honestly probably a ton more stuff i want to edit on it. There's a bunch of transitions that aren't smooth or maybe some music cuts off too soon. There's some parts i feel repeat themselves or are in the wrong place. There's a bunch of ideas i had pop into my head just today tha...
2021-08-13 00:34:13 +0000 UTC View PostIs that it completely screws up your youtube recommendations. Youtube has only recommended me Mcgregor videos for the past month!!
I never want to hear about this man again for the rest of my life.

Okay so i promised backers "behind the scenes content", and im just taking a few minutes away from editing and thought id share this 3 seconds of footage with you guys as a small thanks to everyone who signed up today.
Sometimes when I'm making these videos I'll get an idea out of nowhere, and think "can i make that happen?". This was one of those times. I wanted to make a point about Conor attacking the bus being like the bonus stage in Street fighter 2, and this was the end resu...
