00:00Ten years ago, I started doing YouTube. I started making YouTube videos and I did it for fun.
00:07I made a bunch of videos on my own and at one point, I thought, maybe I want to make videos with other people.
00:16So I started making videos with other people.
00:18However, it was such a pain. It was so tough to record with people from Australia,
00:26record with people from America all at the same time.
00:31At one point, I thought, well, wouldn't it be amazing if I had a few people I could record videos with every single day
00:39who were reliable, who were in the same time zone as me, who were sharing the same vision and the same mindset as me.
00:47And this is how I kind of started Robust.
00:53It was this group of people who just wanted to record videos together.
00:59Before anyone of the popular names were there, it was me together with Cody and Akib.
01:07These were the earliest days of Robust.
01:10These were the days where we weren't popular. And a lot of you probably have never heard of these names.
01:18At one point, I stumbled upon this kid.
01:23His name was Jelle and he had a channel together with Stefan and it was called GTA 5 videos.
01:30I'm pretty sure they still have the channel.
01:32And me and Jelle, we sat down in Amsterdam.
01:37We drank some tea and for some reason, we just saw it.
01:42We had this vision together.
01:44We had this drive and we had this creativity and we said,
01:50well, why don't we go and make some videos together too?
01:53Why don't you join this little recording group that we have?
01:59And in reality, before Jelle, there was no Robust.
02:04Okay, when Jelle joined, Robust was formed. The Robust that everyone knows.
02:11Cody and Akib ended up leaving.
02:14Well, first it was Akib, then Slogo joined and then Cody left.
02:20And throughout the years, obviously more people have come and more people have left.
02:29But today marks a very interesting day.
02:33Jelle just uploaded a video.
02:34I left Slogo and Craner and I've not seen the video.
02:38I've not had an in-depth look into why.
02:43But as I would say the co-founder of Robust,
02:50me and Jelle being the co-founders, it feels strange.
02:55It feels very strange to me that this group is still living on
03:01and now living on without the two people who are there.
03:07When it was created. It's strange.
03:12It's strange. It just feels strange.
03:17Regardless of the status of the group right now,
03:22I want to watch this video and I want to be honest.
03:25Okay, in honesty, I'm done with the childish stuff.
03:30The child is bullshit. Let's just say that.
03:33And I want to watch this video and be honest
03:36and be open with everyone about how I feel and how I felt in the past about the group.
03:43But let's go and watch it. I think I left the group like three four years ago.
03:46I can't even remember. It was such a such a long time.
03:49Hi. First of all, I want to admire Jelle's long hair.
03:56I like his long hair. Also, it seems like he got a hair transplant.
04:01Jelle, you did a great job on the hair transplant.
04:03You had a good doctor for that. That looks great.
04:07Or he's just living healthy and using minoxidil and microneedling.
04:11Anyways, that's what I'm doing. I started balding and but I've reversed my balding.
04:16Anyways, hi everyone. I don't know how to start this video.
04:20I don't even really want to post this video or do this video,
04:24but I think it's time to address the obvious. For the past week.
04:28I have not been posting videos together with my good friends Craner and Slogo.
04:33And I think a lot of you are wondering what is going on.
04:37Yes, I'm very much wondering what's going on.
04:40I have no idea. Okay, but I have my suspicions.
04:45It's highly likely that you've read the title.
04:48And unfortunately, it is not clickbait. I am leaving Slogo and Craner.
04:55I know and I do realize that that is a big shock for most of you.
05:01Like I said, some of you might have realized something is going.
05:05Sorry, I'm just distracted by most of you.
05:07What's Jelly wearing? What kind of sick flex is this?
05:11What kind of watch is that Jelly? That's where the YouTube money gets you boy.
05:15Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Sorry.
05:18You might have realized. Sorry, this is a serious video.
05:21I should be serious. Okay, focus. Something is going on,
05:25but it's highly likely that this comes over as a huge shock.
05:30And that's why I'm going to get into why I'm leaving the group.
05:34And hopefully by the end of this video,
05:37you'll understand my decision and respect me for it.
05:41I guess before we get into it. I just want to say there's no so so regardless.
05:45Jelly says by the end of video. Hope you respect me for the decision at the end of the day.
05:50This is a decision that Jelly's made.
05:53He's thought about it for probably months.
05:57If it's not a year at least this is a massive massive massive move.
06:02Okay, it's it's something that I've gone through
06:05and it's not a decision you make from one day on the other.
06:08What a lot of people don't see is behind the scenes.
06:11Yes, you might have a fight an argument here and there that's totally normal,
06:15but a decision to leave the group is like you are ending a relationship,
06:21but this is not just a relationship. This is a marriage.
06:24Okay, you should realize that there are serious financial consequences that jelly jelly is is is accepting right now.
06:33He is at a point where he feels like this is the best thing that he can do in his life right now.
06:41He's been part of this group for years for years for an eternity.
06:48So regardless, I don't care what he's going to say.
06:53I respect jelly's decision period.
06:56If this is something that he needs to do.
06:59Then this is something he needs to do if he feels like this is right.
07:04He feels like this is right.
07:05Okay, if there's one person qualified to make this decision, it's him.
07:11So let's proceed. No beef.
07:13Okay before it I guess before we get into it.
07:16I just want to say there's no beef. Okay, me and slow going Craner.
07:20We're on good terms. I've made this decision of leaving slow going Craner after being unhappy and unmotivated for several months.
07:29So let me get into why I've been unhappy.
07:35At first I looked within myself and I thought well,
07:39you know, maybe I'm just done being a YouTuber.
07:42I have done this thing this job.
07:45I don't know if you can call it a job, but sure.
07:47I've done this thing for 10 years for over 10 years now and it's been so much fun.
07:54However, I've grown up a lot of viewers have grown up and maybe I'm just done with it.
08:00And while I was exploring that idea in my head, I came to realize I'm not done with this at all.
08:08And I feel you man.
08:10I had the same thing you grow up as a person you grow up as an individual and things change
08:17and sometimes that means that you know,
08:21you grow out of the content or you grow out of the group a hundred percent,
08:27you know, I can resonate with this jelly a hundred percent.
08:30It's it's a strange feeling but you know,
08:33Something is a little bit off and you're not enjoying the recordings
08:37and you're not enjoying the feeling and you know,
08:39I started doing more and more solo things.
08:42It's something that I really enjoyed if I look back on robust.
08:47There are things that I proposed that I you know, wish we you know,
08:53we built out one thing is one of the most fun things
09:00that I ever did with the boys was the IRL group recordings.
09:05Okay, this was the coke and Mentos challenge.
09:08This was RKO in each other at home.
09:11Just doing a simple Q&A together.
09:14Okay, it's hilarious how easy and simple those videos were to record
09:19but how much fun we were having while we were doing that
09:23and it's something that I proposed a very long time to do some group stuff to
09:29officially become that group and it's something that the group has never done.
09:36I proposed a you know, like a Minecraft channel together
09:40or a group channel together and it just never happened.
09:43Imagine robust, but it's the Sidemen.
09:46Okay that level of quality that level of content.
09:51I always thought of what kind of content would that be?
09:54It would be IRL racing content.
09:57How sick would it be if Top Gear got three new hosts in and it was robust?
10:04Okay, these were the ideas that I had the vision that I had for this group
10:09and occasionally I would express it
10:11and I wasn't that confident in selling it and pitching it
10:15but I feel like that could have been something very cool
10:19that would have kept this drive and this motivation within the group
10:24but what ended up happening and you know,
10:26these are decisions that we all made.
10:28I'm not blaming an individual is that we narrowed down on being child-friendly
10:34and it was great financial great success,
10:37but there's an expiration date on it.
10:39Okay, I'm 29.
10:41I cannot for the sake of me for the love of me act like a child-friendly idiot anymore.
10:50I just don't enjoy it.
10:52Okay, I just don't it's just not something I like doing anymore
10:57and and thankfully now I'm at a point where I'm financially independent
11:02and I don't have to so the real Kwebbelkop can it can resume making videos.
11:09Okay, what would I do outside of YouTube?
11:12I would be super bored.
11:13I have no education.
11:15I have no other passions than being a YouTuber.
11:21You guys still show so much support every single day
11:27when I post a new video and that drives me.
11:32I love it.
11:33I love being a YouTuber.
11:34I love recording videos and I'm not done with being a YouTuber.
11:40That's not what made me unhappy.
11:43So I'm not quitting.
11:44Okay, don't worry.
11:45However, sometimes being a YouTuber
11:48and keeping things interesting for myself
11:51and interesting for the viewers requires a big change.
11:56Sometimes those big changes can be completely changing content
12:01going from gaming to real-life content
12:03or going from makeup videos to prank videos.
12:09In my case, that's not the case.
12:12For me, that big change is taking on this YouTube thing on my own.
12:19For the past 10 years, I have been in a group.
12:22The group started with me and Kwebbelkop and some other guys.
12:27Eventually, Slogo joined in
12:29and I believe that's like maybe nine years ago now
12:33and that went on for a while,
12:35but all of you probably know Kwebbelkop left around five years ago.
12:40Five years ago. It was five years ago.
12:43It feels like yesterday.
12:44That's crazy.
12:45That's crazy.
12:46Then four years ago, Craner joined,
12:49but two years ago, he left
12:52and then about 10 months ago, Craner joined back.
12:55So there's been a lot of changes through my career as a YouTuber
12:59and frankly, this change that I'm going to go through right now
13:07is one of those big changes that you can add to that list.
13:10Now, I realize that this is going to suck for a while.
13:14Not just for you as a viewer
13:17who wants to see us playing video games together
13:19and just having fun,
13:21but also for Slogo and Craner
13:23who are going to have to find a new path
13:25and find a way how to play video games with just the two of them,
13:30but also for me.
13:31I'm going to have to work three times harder to prepare videos,
13:36think about ideas,
13:38and you know, even though it's harder,
13:41I'm ready for it.
13:42I'm ready to take up another challenge.
13:45So Jay Lee mentioned that he has to work three times harder.
13:48This is something I really underestimated.
13:51You know, when you leave the group, when you're in this group,
13:53it's not just a recording group,
13:55but it's also a support group, right?
13:57So you are sharing ideas, you're brainstorming ideas,
14:00you're talking about a lot of very interesting things
14:04that are helping you progress in life.
14:06And this is one of the reasons everyone in the groups are successful.
14:10We would talk about investing.
14:13We would talk about, you know,
14:14we would call each other out for doing stupid things with money
14:17or doing stupid things with your time.
14:19If you weren't thinking about your future,
14:21you know, you had two people just berate you and roast you
14:25and force you back in line.
14:27All three of us were there with one thing in mind,
14:30to make the best content and to have the best future.
14:33So when I left this group,
14:37it was as if this support network disappeared
14:41and I had to build it up in my own personal life.
14:44And thankfully, I have it now.
14:47But I very much underestimated it.
14:49And these recordings, these solo recordings,
14:51all of a sudden you have to talk three times as much
14:53because there's no other people filling it up.
14:56And to me, that was something that was way too exhausting.
15:01So, you know, I very much resonate with Jay Lee here.
15:07Because like I said, you need to keep things interesting for yourself.
15:11And I really understand.
15:12I really understand that all of you want me and the boys
15:17playing video games together and having fun.
15:20But unfortunately, all good things eventually come to an end.
15:25So really, I came to realize I'm not unhappy being a YouTuber.
15:32I'm unhappy being in a group.
15:35And that sucks to say.
15:36It really does because I wish those guys the best.
15:39But I assume most of you are going to look for a reason of why I am unhappy
15:45and why I was unmotivated in a group with Slogo and Craner.
15:50And while I don't really want to go into the specifics of it,
15:54I can definitely say, you know, when you work with other people,
15:58sometimes there are conflicts.
16:00And sometimes things just don't go so well.
16:03Like I said, Craner came back to me and Josh roughly 10 months ago.
16:07Sometime after...
16:08Okay, I mean, okay, hear me out, right?
16:11I was in this group for a bunch of years, co-founded it with Jay Lee.
16:16And then I left.
16:19Never went back.
16:21Okay, this was a decision that I made.
16:24This was an important decision.
16:26This is something that I was 100% behind.
16:30Craner joined.
16:31Craner left.
16:32Craner joined again.
16:33Okay.
16:35I hoped, I should say, that there was good communication there.
16:43That the issues were resolved.
16:47And that everyone in there was matured.
16:51But what I feel like is that it didn't.
16:54It didn't, you know, it wasn't resolved.
16:59Or maybe there were still some underlying challenges that ended up getting,
17:07you know, getting into Jay Lee's, under Jay Lee's skin.
17:11To the point where he felt like, okay, this is simply not going to work.
17:19And it's going to be leaving and joining and leaving and joining.
17:22And that's when Jay Lee said, okay, well, let me be the grown-up here.
17:27And let me leave.
17:29It's hard to say, because obviously I wasn't there.
17:34But that's the vibe that I'm getting here.
17:37That's, you know, it feels like it was a potentially not that healthy environment for Jay Lee.
17:47And that's why he didn't enjoy it.
17:50And because he didn't enjoy it, he didn't get energy from it.
17:53And he felt like, okay, well, it's not in his power to be able to solve it.
17:59So let's take the control back into his own hands and let's move on.
18:05After Craner came back to me and Josh roughly 10 months ago.
18:09Sometime after we found out that our priorities as a group were simply not aligned anymore.
18:18The boys have been focusing a lot on a new path for them.
18:23A new channel which posts amazing videos.
18:26I love to watch them. It's great content.
18:28And so that's really good to see.
18:32This is new to me.
18:34I had no idea.
18:35Someone mentioned this, but I don't know the details.
18:40I had no idea they had another channel together.
18:44But they have one together. Is that it? Is it Slogo and Craner?
18:48What did I do? Is it real life? Is it gaming?
18:51I genuinely have no idea.
18:55Where can I find this? Is it on the SLG channel?
18:59Is it a shorts channel? I genuinely have no idea.
19:03SLG. 700.
19:06Ah, okay.
19:08All right.
19:10SLG. Gotcha.
19:11I didn't know. I didn't know it had a channel.
19:13782k.
19:17What is this? 500 videos?
19:21How have I not seen this?
19:25I have totally missed this.
19:29I had no idea. These guys have been posting on this every single day.
19:33There is no way. What is it? Reaction videos together?
19:36Is that Craner? Is that what he looks like?
19:42No, that's Craner, right? Who's that guy?
19:47This is interesting. I mean, hey, listen.
19:52Fucking hell. That's my video.
19:55That's my thumbnail. Anyways, anyways, anyways, what the hell?
20:01Because I remember he did these videos. The real truth.
20:04Okay, I remember those two videos and but I didn't know.
20:09I didn't know they had a reaction channel together.
20:13Is it real or AI challenge? I did that too.
20:18That's funny. I mean, okay.
20:22That's fun. What's his most viewed video? This is very new to me.
20:25This is a live reaction. You're getting right here.
20:27I had no idea but hey, here's a video with Jelly.
20:31So they did do some they did do some stuff together.
20:36But it's like a group reaction channel.
20:40This is so interesting. How many views is this getting?
20:45Should I even check? I don't even want to check.
20:48Okay. Okay. That's interesting.
20:51That's very interesting. So I didn't know.
20:59I had no idea but this I mean, I how would I feel in this situation?
21:04I would feel betrayed. I would feel betrayed.
21:07I would feel absolutely betrayed. I would feel disappointed.
21:12I would I would feel I would feel sad about it too.
21:18Like the thing is that this group is huge, right?
21:23It is something that to this day there is isn't a single day in my life
21:30that I cannot go on the street in public without anyone mentioning the group.
21:37To to then find out for me right to then find out that they have started their own channel.
21:44Okay, go for it guys do it.
21:46Yeah. Yeah, sure. No problem.
21:49But I can only imagine how jelly how jelly must feel being in this group seeing two guys of the group.
22:01You know, in a sense going behind his back.
22:07Running a channel themselves and you know,
22:09I don't know what they discussed but to switch priorities to this group channel.
22:15I would feel betrayed. I would genuinely feel betrayed and you cannot stop them, right?
22:20It's it's in their right to go and do whatever they please and record videos and such
22:26but in his way that the most important thing is doing stuff again,
22:33you know, I earlier on in this video earlier on in this video jelly says,
22:39you know, like odd it's going to be a bad time for me
22:41because I have to go and record on my own but also the guys have to record together
22:45like bitch shut up like they have been recording for the past 10 months.
22:49There's no change for them. They were prepared for this.
22:53They saw this coming they manifested this they made it happen.
22:58Okay, if you go imagine I go and start when I was back back in the day when
23:04when me Jillian's logo recording videos imagine how Josh would have felt
23:08if me and jelly started a channel together 10 months of daily videos.
23:15Imagine if you you know, I'm pretty sure even in two videos a day occasionally imagine
23:22how slow go would have felt all right
23:25and seeing that and in the middle of the recording go.
23:28All right. Thanks Josh for recording now me
23:30and jelly are going to record because that's how it goes
23:33or ha jelly that video that video we just recorded was so good,
23:38you know, oh yeah, Josh you're here now.
23:39Thanks. We got to record a group video together for the for their main channels.
23:44This is drama. This is drama to to the extreme.
23:49This is betrayal. I personally would have felt betrayal.
23:53I'm slightly shocked. I am I'm slightly shocked.
23:58I thought they had just recently started a channel.
24:01That's it. Someone told me this morning.
24:03I said the whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up. No spoilers.
24:05I haven't watched the video. But they have been for 10 months.
24:10It's like your wife cheating on you for 10 months
24:12and finding out okay that that is that is that's how I see this.
24:19I've remorse for jelly. I feel remorse for jelly.
24:22Okay, this sucks. This genuinely sucks.
24:30Using videos. I love to watch them. It's great content.
24:34And so that's really good to see
24:36but unfortunately their new path also didn't include me
24:42and you know that that sucked it hurt and even though it hurts.
24:47Julie says it hurts. He feels hurt and I get you man.
24:51I 100% feel you. I understand you.
24:56I mean I it's it's it sucks.
25:01Okay, you know when you're in when you're in this group
25:06and it's it's it's really hard to to explain it
25:10because you have watched these videos.
25:13You haven't felt what it's like being in the group,
25:15but you've watched it. So you get it like you're genuinely friends friends
25:20for like for a life, you know shit about each other, right?
25:24But you also have got each other's back.
25:28If there's something regardless regardless even to this day.
25:33I know that I can always call jelly always always always always always.
25:38Okay, and he knows he can call me even though we haven't seen each other in years,
25:42but whenever we see each other, we're friends, right?
25:46We're ride-or-die and that's with everyone in this group.
25:51So for them to start a channel together.
25:56And not include jelly that's fucking betrayal.
26:01Okay, that sucks. That's an absolute dick move.
26:06Okay, that's not okay.
26:09And you know, I respect slow go
26:14and I respect Craner for wanting to do this together.
26:18But leaving jelly out of it like this
26:21and and and you know, not considering his feelings in the equation.
26:28That's that's cold. That's cool.
26:31That's a business move. Yes, fine,
26:33but it's a cold betrayal of someone that is that is more than a friend.
26:38That's near family.
26:43I bet that sucked it hurt and even though it hurts.
26:48I don't want them to stop pursuing this new path of theirs together
26:53because that would be ridiculous.
26:54It's one of the many reasons of why I was unhappy,
26:57you know, it just sucks being left out is not a good feeling
27:03and we talked about it and they didn't see it that way
27:05and you know, it's fine.
27:07Like it doesn't really matter.
27:10I genuinely wish them the best
27:13and I'm subscribed to the channel.
27:15I love watching it fuck though.
27:17I'm subscribing to the channel.
27:18Hell no, you'll never get a subscribe for me.
27:21Fuck that. Fuck that.
27:24No way. No way.
27:27I'm subscribing after that.
27:30After that heartfelt message from jelly that I can very much
27:36that I can very much resonate with.
27:39This guy is too sweet.
27:42Okay, this is this is the heart of a fucking kitty cat.
27:48Okay, he's still subscribed.
27:52It's like someone's fucking your wife.
27:55Okay, and you follow the guy on Instagram.
27:59Fuck. No, fuck that.
28:02Hell no, if I'm going to be unhappy.
28:07I don't want to hold them back either, you know,
28:10especially after working together for so long,
28:14but it's okay and obviously there's two sides to the story, right?
28:20There's a reason slogan and Craner wanted to do this.
28:24Okay, and and and and and they have their side
28:29and ensure it's never this simple,
28:32but still okay. I feel for jelly in this.
28:36I feel for jelly in this situation.
28:38Okay, I you know, I don't hate slogan or Craner for doing this.
28:42Really? I don't you know, I respect their decisions go and do it guys.
28:46Keep on killing it. You do what you got to do
28:48and there's room for everything.
28:51But it also makes me slightly emotional that this is the reason.
28:57Okay that this is the reason like really there is no drama.
29:03There's no beef bitch. There's fucking beef.
29:07This is beef. This is betrayal.
29:11Okay, this is much more much more wilder than I could have imagined.
29:17Jesus Christ. I genuinely left
29:22because I just wasn't feeling the group vibe.
29:25Like I had to focus on myself.
29:28This was a journey that I wanted to focus on my mental health.
29:31I wanted to focus on my physical. I wanted to get my life together.
29:35That's why I left the group right? I didn't hate Josh.
29:39I didn't we didn't have a fight mean jelly didn't have a fight.
29:43There is nothing okay, but this fucking L
29:49especially after working together for so long,
29:54but it's okay. It doesn't matter.
29:57Yes, it matters to realize everything happens for a reason.
30:03And I think that this time the reason is
30:06for me to completely focus on my own path on solo content
30:12that I haven't been able to explore before and that way I'll be happy
30:17and I'm not holding the boys back
30:19because I'm unhappy being in a group.
30:22I hope that makes sense. I still care a lot about these guys
30:25and I genuinely consider these guys some of my best friends
30:28and of course we're going to keep in touch
30:31and occasionally you might see some new videos pop up on my channel
30:35or their channels where we're playing games together like like nothing happened,
30:40but it's not going to be a regular thing anymore.
30:44The fun of being in a group
30:47and recording videos together a couple of times a week is is done for me.
30:52So I am genuinely looking forward to exploring something new.
30:59I am aware. I'm going to miss the boys,
31:01you know, I'm going to miss recording with them.
31:02But again, if I'm not having fun, I'm not doing it.
31:06So it's time to have some fun again.
31:09I'm going to try my best to bring you some amazing entertaining content,
31:13exploring things that simply I haven't been able to do before
31:16and potentially picking up some content that you guys were used to seeing for a long time,
31:23but you haven't seen for me for a while like GTA videos
31:29or but you haven't seen for me for a while like GTA videos
31:34or a City Skylines 2 series now that they finally fixed all the bugs in the game.
31:40And of course, I'll be continuing posting Minecraft.
31:43It might be mod reviews. There might be some role plays adventure maps
31:47and potentially I might even continue a survival series together with my good buddy Doodle
31:53who's a pet sheep by the way.
31:55Who the fuck is Doodle?
31:56Anyways, the robust lore is too complicated.
31:59This is like Marvel Disney.
32:01Like someone needs to purge this and clean this up.
32:04This has gotten too dirty like what the fuck happened?
32:08Okay, who is Doodle?
32:11You know what I want Jilly to do?
32:13I wanted to see him drive Lamborghinis and race in real fucking life.
32:18Okay, this is a YouTuber with 20 million more than 20 million subscribers.
32:24He could just call three people and do the sickest shit in a video
32:29and get a gazillion fucking views or even better.
32:35He can just sit in front of the camera call.
32:39I don't know Dwayne The Rock Johnson and interview him and get him a billion views.
32:45Okay, I don't see it Doodle. I want to see Jilly shine.
32:49That's what I want to see continue a survival series together with my good buddy Doodle
32:54who was a pet sheep by the way.
32:56So yes, that also means Squid Island is officially over
33:01and while Slogo and Craner are most likely, I haven't spoken to them,
33:05but while they're most likely going to continue the show in their way,
33:10I'm not continuing Squid Island in a group.
33:15It's going to be a land grab at this point, right?
33:17So this is the same thing happened when I left and but you know,
33:22I was very content with it.
33:25You know, I was one of the founders of Robust.
33:28Okay, and you know, I let them have it.
33:32I said go for it. And when Jilly left and he just left he forfeit.
33:39He forfeit all the group stuff. They're going to claim Squid Island.
33:43They're going to continue Squid Island.
33:44Maybe they're going to start a new series and they're going to dominate it.
33:48They're going to claim the fan base and the fan base will feel divided
33:53but you know, they will continue their own fan base.
33:58Jilly also says, you know, he'll occasionally record with the guys
34:01and I hope that he can be in a healthy good and fun relationship with them.
34:07But then he now just said he hasn't spoken to the guys about Squid Island.
34:13So I feel like there's still a lot of unresolved claims here a lot of unresolved issues
34:20and I feel like communication was one of the main factors why Jilly ended up leaving.
34:27Maybe he wasn't communicating clearly to the guys
34:31and he wasn't communicating his feelings
34:34or maybe he was communicating his feelings very clearly
34:37but the guys weren't listening and weren't receiving it very clearly
34:42or were but intentionally weren't acting and handling on it.
34:49In their way, I'm not continuing Squid Island in a group.
34:54I'm going to try and focus on something new in Minecraft a new survival world.
34:57Like I said, and I'm really looking forward to it.
35:01I think I could bring some amazing ideas to the show
35:04that frankly, I don't think YouTube has seen before
35:08and so then what about our podcast two-thirds?
35:11Well, fuck their podcast.
35:13Of course, Jesus Christ.
35:16I'm going to make the joke more like one-thirds.
35:20No, Jesus Christ.
35:22I had to I'm sorry.
35:24I'm sorry.
35:25Oh the foreshadowing on that two-thirds two-thirds now,
35:30it's three times one-third man.
35:36You know what when I went on the podcast I I went there with good vibes.
35:40Like I'm a I'm a die-hard optimist.
35:42I love every single bit of my life
35:45when I went there I didn't have the best experience.
35:47I visited twice is what a lot of people don't know.
35:51I went there once jelly had to cancel.
35:53Unfortunately, he was sick and I was there with slow go
35:56and and and they walked me through some questions
35:59and you know, I wasn't feeling that vibe.
36:05I shared my feelings.
36:07I felt really bad.
36:11I felt really bad.
36:13Let's just say that I went there being super happy.
36:17We talked and then at night.
36:19I genuinely couldn't sleep.
36:20That's how bad that's how bad it was.
36:28But here's the thing, right?
36:31That's that can happen and over the years.
36:34I've practiced and gotten way better at share communicating
36:40and sharing the way how I felt and I shared this with Jillian's logo.
36:46I'll leave out the details because that doesn't matter.
36:51But I shared with the guys how I felt
36:53and I told them that I didn't want to do the podcast.
36:56I was there we were ready to do it pretty much
36:59and I canceled it but thankfully.
37:04Slow go and jelly both listened.
37:07Okay, and to me I felt hurt.
37:12I felt like they understood how I was feeling
37:15and and and and it resonated with them
37:18and and and that's why I ended up doing the podcast with them.
37:22So to now hear this that you know,
37:27jelly doesn't feel good about it and in a jelly is leaving the group
37:31and that the guys are starting their their channel together
37:35where they have for for for 10 months now.
37:38It's interesting to me because when I was there
37:41and I expressed my concerns I was heard
37:44and now it feels to me like jelly wasn't hurt
37:47and jelly was left out and feels left out
37:50and feels betrayed and it's interesting.
37:56It's interesting. I think YouTube has seen before.
37:59So then what about our podcast two-thirds?
38:03Well, the whole point of two-thirds was to find a third member to record
38:07with that member ended up being Craner and the show was done.
38:12We had really no good way to continue.
38:15We couldn't we had talks about how to continue it,
38:17but we genuinely couldn't figure it out.
38:19And while it was a lot of fun to record the podcast to me.
38:24I thought the podcast was too much focused on drama too much focus on the negativity.
38:29I think the podcast could have been a thousand times better
38:34if some good shit was recorded.
38:36Okay, I was there and I said how fucking sick would it have been
38:41if we reacted to the jelly distract life me there jelly's logo.
38:46Okay live that would have been a great reaction.
38:50That would have been fun that we could have laughed about it.
38:52We could have talked about it instead.
38:54It was about drama like fuck the drama.
38:58Okay, fuck that. No, but we want good new content.
39:03We want that we want the robust for the 2016 era the 2015 shit.
39:09Okay, we want that good shit.
39:14Imagine we would have sat there and we would have played GTA 5 together.
39:18We would have made GTA 5 races together.
39:21That would have been fucking epic on a podcast.
39:25It would have been simple,
39:26but it would be focused on the stuff that people want to see that's positive.
39:32Okay, I do YouTube. I do social media.
39:35I got blue my virtual influencer the biggest virtual influencer in the world.
39:39Okay, and the reason I do it is to share positivity
39:44to share good vibes in the world not to be a fucking dick.
39:51It just kind of died out lastly.
39:55I don't want there to be any rumors.
39:57So if you have any questions for me, I'd be happy to answer them in the comment section.
40:01I really want to thank all of you for being amazing fans
40:05and supporting me with my decision.
40:07I know that a lot of you are going to support me through this
40:10and you're also going to support Craner
40:12and Josh because frankly I have made this decision
40:16and I'm not going to support them like I've picked my side Jaylee.
40:20I'm on your side. I don't give a fuck.
40:24Like I would need to hear a slow going Craner explanation.
40:30Why like why is it was it was Jaylee really lacking motivation
40:37and was this just a final nail in the coffin
40:41or are there different ambitions
40:44and do they want to take it much bigger and crazier?
40:48Like I'm curious. I'm curious why I'm craving for more.
40:54Craner and Josh because frankly I have made this decision
40:59and even though the boys agree that it is best for me to make this decision.
41:06It still sucks for all of us
41:08and I really hope you're going to stick along for the ride
41:10because frankly I'm not quitting.
41:13I've said it a couple times now.
41:15I'm still posting one video every single day
41:19and for some reason I'm so motivated to take on that new journey.
41:24I have not felt this motivated to take on a new journey for many years.
41:30So again, please do not worry if there's any beef
41:33or fights or things going on between me and slow going Craner.
41:37It's simply not the case.
41:39We've talked everything out
41:40and you might even see a video from them on this matter too.
41:44I don't know that's completely their decision,
41:47but that's it.
41:49I've said it now.
41:50I love all of you
41:51and I want to thank you for your support
41:53and sticking along with us for this tough transition.
41:58But I'm going to see you tomorrow with a new video
42:02and that one's going to be a lot of fun.
42:05Jesus Christ fucking L.
42:11Why is everyone so casual about it?
42:14How what did the comments say?
42:16This is crazy YouTube history respect man project James if I the homie
42:22this one broke my heart when jelly said that they didn't need him anymore
42:25fucking L.
42:27It just tore my heart.
42:28This is what I'm saying.
42:30Like I'm not the only one thankfully Jesus.
42:38He did try to bring back Craner and made a song for him,
42:42but I do respect your choice jelly.
42:44I've been a longtime fan since 2014.
42:47I wish you the best man.
42:49Jeez, let's start a petition for him to play with Santa.
42:53Yeah, you should play more with Santa.
42:56It used to be the traffic light squad,
42:59but now without green they can't go walk.
43:06That's deep.
43:07That's very deep.
43:09That's very deep.
43:11You got this brother wishing all the best says lighter tighter.
43:18I hope you have a good time working alone now.
43:21Thank you for all the memories.
43:22I made with you slow going Craner.
43:25You can literally see jelly slowly tearing up throughout the video
43:29and I understand man the same here man.
43:31This shit's emotional.
43:33Okay, like my childhood is disappearing in front of my eyes.
43:41You guys made my childhood with quibble cup and Craner so good,
43:44but now it has come to an end.
43:49The end of one of the greatest trio YouTube history.
43:53Enough to make a grown man cry.
43:58First Geordie then Craner and then jelly at this point everyone but Josh has left.
44:05I can't imagine jelly not being in the group since he's the one who basically was holding the group together.
44:11I know that jelly doesn't want to stay in the group because he's unhappy the robust isn't robust without jelly.
44:21Imagine GTA 6 without this trio.
44:29Yeah, I wasn't really expecting this but here my final final words my final thoughts on this.
44:38I mean I feel for jelly.
44:40I a hundred percent feel feel jelly here.
44:44I a hundred percent feel betrayed in a way.
44:57It's sad to see that this is how it went down.
45:01It's sad that this is how jelly had to go.
45:14I am a little bit lost for words,
45:22but I feel like this video has very well expressed and given a little inside in my mind in my feelings in my honest opinion.
45:38And I you know, it's leaving a bad taste in my mouth.
45:45That's what I can say.
45:49It's it's left a bad taste in my mouth.
45:54You know, it's left a bad taste in my mouth because this this group it's something that I started that I that I built.
46:09You know, there's so many things that a lot of people don't realize that we put energy in like
46:14the colors that we have it's something we thought about.
46:18Okay, it's it's it's it goes very very deep.
46:27And and to see something that you know, you build up for so many years and you let go and you let shine to see it crumble right in front of your eyes.
46:40Like it makes me feel sad.
46:43Like genuinely it's making me tear up to see someone like jelly who I can say for the for a very long time was my absolute best friend in the world to see him be treated this way or you know,
47:01a better way to phrase it is to see him feel this way.
47:07It makes me sad.
47:09And that's why it's left a bad taste in my mouth.
47:20I'm very curious to see how this is going to develop.
47:25I was jelly nothing but love success health and and and peace.
47:35I think that's a very important one.
47:38That's something that I've really got when I started doing things on my own.
47:44I feel like I finally started living my life and that was the decision that I made.
47:49I had peace.
47:50I had it was quiet.
47:52It was there was room for me to finally live.
47:58And I that's something I really wish to jelly that he can that he can finally do what feels right to finally choose and pick for himself instead of feeding this group his energy and his love and his his feelings and his emotions and energy like like effort.
48:19And everyone who still watching this thank you show this man some love.
48:30Okay, because he it shows in this video that it's an emotional step.
48:35He needs support.
48:37Go and go to his socials go to his video and share some kind words because you might not realize but these comments that you're leaving behind he's reading them.
48:48He is he is feeling them and you know, if you run into him on the street share this with him.
49:00And on that note, I'm going to sign off.
49:02I don't know when I'm going to make another video.
49:04I have no fucking clue.
49:07But all I can say is that I'm glad that I was honest here that I could share my thoughts share my feelings and I hope that everyone.
49:21I hope that every that everyone can have a good time.
49:24Okay, that that that's that's all that I'm here for.
49:27I yeah, I don't really know what to say.
49:30Cool.
49:31All right.
49:31See you next.
49:32Bye.
