Me: I don’t really care about internet drama as much as I used to, honestly.
The Internet: Here’s a google doc by 10+ former employees and contributors exposing how fucked up and badly managed Channel Awesome is/was and how much of an idiot Doug Walker is and how many toxic and abusive people are in the management-
Me:
jesus christ this is a trip
it’s going from like
“haha doug walker is a tech illiterate and idiot in his own world” to
“we are chronically never paid” to
“there was a manager that was grooming and having sex with teenage fans and the upper management did nothing about it”
huh. so spoony’s deranged and extended meltdown that actually got him suspended from the site for a while was because of undiagnosed and untreated bipolar disorder.
also i’m fucking laughing so hard at this recurring thread of “Mike Michaud/Rob Walker clearly never watched the videos so they mistitled them and did nothing about my minute long patreon thing”
>The site lost a bunch of things in 2010 or 2011 because the site existed only on a single drive
>Doug Walker has no idea how to work skype/mp3 converter things even after being told
>Doug Walker has no idea how to be tech literate
>The website used the same template for over 10 years
>None of the management gets social media
HOW AM I MORE TECH SAVVY THAN THE CHANNEL AWESOME MANAGEMENT? I’M A FUCKIN IDIOT

Also I’m kind of baffled over the fact that people are just glossing over how many people got hurt doing stunts for these videos, and the fact that Elisa passed out after being duct taped to the wall in a crucifix position. Like, did they not know that the killing factor with crucifixion isn’t the blood loss from wounds, but suffocation as you can’t properly breathe with your body weight pulling down on you from that hanging ‘T’ position? Elisa could have legit suffocated from that stunt. Like holy crackers, this all sounds like such a hot incompetent mess.
