Olivia was about to explain that Colleen Ballinger's Kids' Cancer Charity has been credibly accused of being fraudulent but Ethan cut her off and then she forgot.

They're family now, literally. I think they are speaking to each atm, especially considering the stuff that's going on the world atm, perhaps Trisha, and Ethan and their respective others realize that the issues they have with each other are petty and pointless, and life is too short to be stuck in the past hating on family members for no good reason.

Thank you for continuing to talk about this. We can't just let her move on like nothing happened. She literally SENT PORNOGRAPHY TO A MINOR, which is punishable by law. She also only apologized to her fans but hasn't reached out privately to the victims to apologize. She is the epitome of someone who weaponizes therapy as a means to slide by unscathed.
I still can’t believe that she hasn’t gotten into legal trouble. Sending porn to kids is so excruciatingly disgusting. Period. No “but she-“ No context will ever matter. I pray that she either gets into legal trouble or loses monetization.
@@Trajikbpm i thought that she phrased her apology so cryptic because she is currently in a legal war, otherwise she would have made a more detailed apology with proof, a more detailed apology could've been used against her in court?
I was a very avid fan of Colleens for about 10 years. I fell for her "apology" in 2020 because I was unaware of the details of the situation and trusted Colleen and took her word for it. This time, I did my research, listened to all sides of the story and have decided to unsubscribe and forget her. Admittedly, it was hard in the beginning, but her true colors came to light over the past 6 months and there's no coming back from what she did. I'm not giving her my views or letting her take up my heads pace. I hope karma comes at just the right time for her
I feel the same. I had never missed a vlog EVER. I used to watch her videos as a way to destress from work or watch during dinner. I really trusted her and loved her. Now I’m disgusted by how much of a fake she is. And all those little things I thought were odd about some random things she had said or done in passing come back to me and I realize those were the cracks in her mask that I didn’t take in enough.
I watched a crisis publicist say she’s working with big time crisis management and they’re advising her against getting into anything, she’s really just gonna go full steam ahead of people let her
Can people please quit using the word narcissist like it's some kinda gotcha? You people are obsessed with that word. It's a disorder. It requires help. Not all narcissists are necessarily bad people. It's like going "she's an evil person because she had ADHD!" " He's a bad person because he has epilepsy!" Like no. Firstly you're not a doctor, quit diagnosing from your bedroom. If she's not a narcissist, then you just sound mad dumb. Just say she's a nasty pos. It's easy.
This can be applied to every family vlogger, but i get so uncomfortable seeing all the comments on her videos or social media saying they miss seeing the kids and asking when they would see them again. I saw comments saying “I miss seeing my babies” and “its been so hard not getting to see them”. Parasocial relationships have gotten so extreme, people feel way too entitled to content of peoples lives, especially their kids. If you care about them that much, you should be happy that they got a few months to grow up in private.
Double yikes. As a parent, I can't even imagine the fury and ick I'd get if literal strangers talked about my kids in such a creep way. I do not understand family bloggers. At. All.
Idk Olivia is a "mean girl" at heart. While I like UA-cam gossip I dont like the mean spirted intentions some people have. Didn't she dox someone during the amaranth situation?
Yeah I think she should! Maybe one day. I can imagine it would be hard to be confident enough to break off from the security of h3 and essentially become a competitor (not that it could be a threat a huge channel like h3 but in essence, would be. And they'd lose the content she provides too.)
Trisha Paytas (the woman whose adult content she showed to minors which is a federal crime) JUST announced she is pregnant. What terrible timing. I dont blame her for keeping out of it while trying to protect her pregnancy. Ironically Trish is also Ethan's inlaw
@@ChellBelle7033 literally both sides released the same screenshots... are you trying to say that somehow colleen and her victims somehow both had access to the exact same edited screenshots that make her look bad?

The casual fans continuing to watch thing…I remember in 2020 when she put out her apology video and I had no idea anything was going on. So only hearing her side I was like “Oh wow she is straight up apologizing this is great good for her” so if there are those fans now…they’ll just see that she’s apologizing for something and accept it
I wasn’t a fan of hers back then but at the same time I didn’t understand the situation so I also was like “oh cool she apologized”. If you aren’t a child or a person with absolutely no morals then I can see how you can continue watching Colleen. The ukulele video should have turned everyone with a single brain cell to realize how horrific Colleen is.
@@samisalsa5546 Totally. Even now, I can see why it was so well received. Watching back now it’s easy to see she wasn’t giving the whole story, but how was anyone besides the hard core internet sleuths supposed to know? I agree toxic gossip train showed her true colours to EVERYONE
@@samisalsa5546 I know someone who's over 30 and STILL forgives her after her latest video. I tried knocking some sense into his head but he just makes excuses for her, it blows my mind. But, he is a literal narcissist, and he sees himself in Colleen, so I guess I shouldn't be all that surprised. 😵💫
I same as Olivia, grew UP watching Colleen. And let me tell you, I've heard legitimacy in her voice millions of times and I've heard her acting voice. This is so so clear to me a "I never heart anyone in my life but I GUESS I'll apologize because that's what they want me to do." I haven't watched this full video yet but I know Olivia knows what I'm talking about. Also her "tell" being her eyebrows is also "and um.." Colleen doesn't speak like that. Not the real version of herself anyway.
she has 3 kids. I feel bad because she is their mother. it will be a long time before they can escape her. I hope that I'm wrong and she treats them better than the victims
She basically came back because she didn’t wanna lose her channel, it’s been almost 6 months with no video monetized. Also because of ad sense this time of year.
It's wild her comment sections on her videos. She's scrubbing them only leaving the good. To me that's beyond obvious she's guilty. I can't believe she's actually trying to be normal as if sending nudes to a child isn't a big deal.
If she wants to do UA-cam … ok but she should be banned from doing anything in person with kids like her shows and banned from talking in chats with them
I was obsessed with Colleen's vlogs for about 2 years, through her whole pregnancy with the twins & the first year of their lives. I'm not proud of this. Like I really loved her...and rarely missed a vlog, as well as listened/watched every podcast she did with Erik. Having this happen was a bit devastating for me for multiple reasons, the first being how blindsided I felt. I will never, ever, ever support Colleen again, however I won't lie that I was very curious how she & her kids were doing through her absence. I just wished they were doing well, and truthfully I almost wanted a return JUST to confirm everyone was still alive & healthy. I got that closure, and for that I'm a bit thankful. I will not be watching anymore vlogs from her unless it's a reupload or a cut from another creator, but I will also not search for it willingly. For me, watching this video was...dark. Like I said, I was a big fan of her vlogs, and the energy shift activated my flight or fight. Trisha explained my feelings really well in her podcast about the underlying malice in her just being so forefront. Her eyes are just dead & dark, and it's painful to watch her now trying to act like life is good when you can tell she's screaming on the inside, and I also have a theory she made cuts to hide her crying. She is trying to mask & it's so clear. The type of vlogging is also shockingly different in that this vlog didn't show her kids, family, friends or husband in it which is very unlike any other vlog, and I think it was intentional. I kind of don't think she's going to last long, but maybe I'm just being too hopeful...because it really does speak volumes that she's shown zero accountability & clearly isn't that embarrassed by herself. She's angry her ukulele got so much hate, not embarrassed that it was an AWFUL take on "addressing rumors". She still meant every lyric of the Toxic Gossip Train. Honestly, while I'm glad she's doing ok, I'm simultaneously furious that she isn't at her rock bottom yet. It makes me sick to even see new uploads, much less watching the content of them... Side note: Colleen is giving Gabbie Hanna vibes & can't believe I didn't see the resemblance before. Delusional narcissists who get a lot of therapy but have shown no growth & continue to act crazy when everyone is screaming at them to stop. I don't like where this is headed. I have a feeling I'm about to witness another one of my ex-idols go from normalish influencer to mental hospital behavior...IFKYK
100% of those 3 minutes was just handing her army (empty) talking points, in case anyone was ever brave enough to call her out. Bc now they can just parrot “she’s trying to move on!!! She has kids leave her alone!! You don’t have to be on this journey with her so leave!!!” I hate that the worst people on the internet forever get away with everything.
The way she worded it , she sounds like she is owning the hand in the pants to get the cheeseballs and stuff the parents had issue with more than what she did to Adam and trisha. She is only 'apologizing' to the demographic she cares about." Please, parents, I'll be better don't stop buying my stuff for your kids."
I also want to say that you are right about the fan base probably not knowing about what happened. I’m 41 and I just found out this year who she is, who Trisha is, who you all are. I had people I watched on UA-cam but I didn’t go on often, I don’t watch the news much because it upsets me, and I don’t follow gossip usually. Some of us are just not as internet savvy.🤷♀️
She’s not apologizing for anything. She hasn’t stated what she’s apologizing for/taking accountability for. So until she states what she’s sorry about, this is not an apology. It’s nothing.
I haven't seen any comments saying this (so far) - but her apology felt like it was insincere and she only did it because she wanted to continue vlogging like nothing happened. 'Yeah i fucked up . . . ANYWAY FALL VLOG'
I just realized I dont care about Colleen anymore. Honestly, a lot can be mean girl behavior until she sent nudes to minors as a mockery, or askednxor fams to send videos with a tampon in their mouth. As an opinion leader on amy community that was careless and irresponsible.
I love this podcast, I really needed y’alls company that day. They seriously do so much in terms of production that it does actually ‘frustrate’ me they don’t get more credit for it. I’m talking in terms of the wild amount of unwarranted hate from former fans/react UA-camrs, and the sub count forever hovering right under 3M, w/ the last big fluctuation being due to the obv 🇮🇱 situation. Blah blah, my real point again is how much is put into every show by every member of the crew, everyone contributes so much and nobody has to pick up the slack, ever. What podcast has an outstanding team member dedicated to sound bites? Zach has an entire curated catalog of music, sounds, inside jokes, and on top of that is like savant level amazing at it (and it’s not just his job, he lives audio production and is an incredible live musician). In terms of the visual side, by another long term show member Ian, shows his mastery in switching with the fluidity showing in his transitions & keeping up with every crew member live. Can’t mention him without Sam, who has shown she is wildly talented, in the culinary arts & design, and totally deserves her promotion in Teddy Fresh: she’s going to go very far in design. Now onto my boy Dan, who is of course ‘Queen’, which I still giggle at, we all know how much he does for everyone, especially Ethan (keeping him on track), and has been there since day one. Then for more, newer team members, like AB & Lena, the beautiful married couple who as we all know do so much research for Ethan live on the show for 40k+ viewers, and working as Ethan & Hila’s personal assistant. Then Olivia! Whom now creates these PowerPoints which is such a genius engaging way to present content like the Coleen situation, content that other channels present so boring despite it being the exact same subject matter. And I wouldn’t forget Cameron, the handsome deep voiced angel who grew up an hour from me in the Northeast US. His art is so, so good and I’m wasn’t surprised at all he was a former Adult Swim employee. The quick wit and fast art/meme creation on the fly is again so fcking cool to me, as again I can’t name one podcast that has all these elements listed, let alone HALF, and not only that, they have it covered & down to a science. On top of everything I just outlined, they do this 4 times a week! 🚨 While most podcasts with their sized following aren’t pumping out nearly close to what they are. I’m from Maine, and have been suffering from chronic illness that’s had me bedridden off & on for the last 7 years, so it’s very unlikely I’d make it to a live show or LA meet n’ greet. But! I can keep thinking positive, and maybe someday a doctor will clear me for travel (that’s if I could every afford it, my treatment takes every dime I get). Can’t lie it’s like a real goal of mine. Nobody will read this, but hey I felt compelled. Love y’all! Family, Family, Family ☮️&❤
I love that she talks about her new rock hobby before she mentions her first born starting school and soccer for the first time when mentioning "big" updates
A point for why she came back that wasn't on the power point - the time of year. Christmas is coming up. That sweet juicy holiday ad revenue. Could be part of it. Also iirc, wasn't there like some shady shit around her doing the fundraisers? I don't remember what, but I just remember hearing there was something sussy about it. I do find it kind of funny though, with her and the rocks, and tumbling and stuff. That kind of stuff I've noticed has been blowing up on TikTok, and YT shorts, so I do find it a bit funny how during her come back she's doing that now too
She's never present with her kids anyway=how present can you be when you are constantly thinking about the camera and placement and content?!?! That combined with her ADHD and constantly going from one thing to the next you can see how little she is actually present with any of them, sad. I'm not saying ADHD make one unable to be present with their kids, it's the fact that she is choosing to vlog that I think makes it not a good thing.
As a mum of kids the same age I'm jealous of the footage she has of them, they change and grow so quickly and I'd love to be able to look back on all the videos she has (for me privately, not shared with the entire internet)
Yah it’s a no for me. I didn’t even watch after the “blanket apology “ great timing for monetization. Had she specifically named the key ppl she hurt. That would’ve made a difference to me and to them. But the oops sorry let’s get back to it. No. Not enough.
I don't honestly know what I think about this I posted a comment on IG and people were going nuts. It was like the shortest clip on defnoodles IG account. I said she should have started with this rather than a silly uke song - hopefully she's actually taken accountability and understands the actual seriousness of it. (Again I hadn't actually watched the full thing just a shirt clip)
Colleen's done far more good than bad in the grand scheme of things with a character that did push the boundaries of what was acceptable and what was not. Ethan's channel is the only one I'll give a view to which specializes in building people up. Then tearing them back down for the drama/views while hiding behind their ritious backdrop. Like Tabloids do. I feel sorry for creators who did so much for Cancer, and kids but made some awful decisions while messaging fans & doling out gifts. These platforms are a new human experiment without boundaries & rules. Lets take this into account before destroying the lives of Moms & families for that rituous Tabloid Dollar.
Trisha has also been lying up until recently (and still probably recently being honest) and she does the ‘I used to be’ or ‘years ago’ thing and everyone just melts for her. What’s different
My sister (Heather) and her friend (Becky) had a "B & H Party" for their birthdays that were on the same weekend. Everyone had to dress up as something beginning with either B or H.
I’m from Santa Barbara, and I just wanna say that we’ve got LOTS of creeks! 🤣 grew up going to creeks catching tadpoles, looking at dragonflies, and even watching them overflow during raining season too! 🌧️ a big part of my childhood core memories. Lolz 😝
The justice system needs to change. They don’t take anything serious or do anything about anything. Ridiculous. Obviously, I understand that it would be his word against hers or whoever is involved, but they should be looking into it and going to court to figure it out.
Did no one mention that she chopped her hair?! As someone who used to watch, it's always been mid-long length no?. Colleen absolutely needs to do better, but you know girl is feeling big feelings chopping her hair like that and also getting into rocks while she's been away. Hopefully she'll come to more realization of her actions for the sake of everyone she still needs to apologize to individually
I enjoy watching Collen Vlogs and have done it for years. I dont believe anything of the "drama" people are telling. If it is that serious, well you take care of it. If Colleen is back, doesnt that say anything to you?
@@MiCKeyChannel0031 Exactly. Let the authorities take care of it. It is just bad and selfish to go on youtube and do a video about a creator you once loved and followed so hard. (yes talking about adam mcintyre). Why did i care? Or why do i care? The behavior from Adam is not acceptable. Even if it happen or somethingelse happen, you dont share it publicy to the world on youtube.I just saying Karma will get you back.

Ethan said she should've just blamed Miranda but I think he forgot that she literally tried to do just that by implying it was just a character lol
I forgot that she has a kid… when I heard that, that grossed me out even more… imagine finding out how much of a creep your mom is 🤢
3 kids!
@@txtbot9000 oh my god THREE?! Yeah proves that I don’t pay much attention to her😆 but oh my gosh… that makes it SO much worse… hopefully they’re okay
Not just that but Colleen's brother is also a creep... Those kids need CPS
she has 3 kids. I feel bad because she is their mother. it will be a long time before they can escape her. I hope that I'm wrong and she treats them better than the victims
Olivia I hope you're being paid very well, you'd find a lot of success on your own channel tbh
She and Nicole raffiie would be great podcast hosts lmfao
Influencers are untouchable! Her and james charles should be in jail
Esppp James Charles
She basically came back because she didn’t wanna lose her channel, it’s been almost 6 months with no video monetized.
Also because of ad sense this time of year.
Thank you, Adam
Colleen Ballanger just doesnt seem to be a good person.
Yeah. I wonder if it depends on who she’s talking to but, yeah, she doesn’t seem to be that good of a person, though.
It's wild her comment sections on her videos. She's scrubbing them only leaving the good. To me that's beyond obvious she's guilty. I can't believe she's actually trying to be normal as if sending nudes to a child isn't a big deal.
Colleen pretty much said the same thing as her song so she has just not done any self reflection fr
Exactly!!! It’s the same bullshit talking points as the uke video but spoken instead of sung 🤦♀️
@@make.upexperiments7269😊
Ethan has mentioned Trisha a couple times last few episodes. Think he’s missing her 😭 bring frenemies back!
They may not work together again but it would be nice if things improved behind the scenes.
it’s not trisha who they really beef with, it’s moses
The cousins should grow up knowing each other
@@arctic_adrenaline yeah, I know, he can be left out lmao.
@@arctic_adrenalinei’m new to this so can i ask what happened with moses?
Olivia deserves a raise 🎉💵
If she wants to do UA-cam … ok but she should be banned from doing anything in person with kids like her shows and banned from talking in chats with them
I was obsessed with Colleen's vlogs for about 2 years, through her whole pregnancy with the twins & the first year of their lives. I'm not proud of this. Like I really loved her...and rarely missed a vlog, as well as listened/watched every podcast she did with Erik. Having this happen was a bit devastating for me for multiple reasons, the first being how blindsided I felt. I will never, ever, ever support Colleen again, however I won't lie that I was very curious how she & her kids were doing through her absence. I just wished they were doing well, and truthfully I almost wanted a return JUST to confirm everyone was still alive & healthy. I got that closure, and for that I'm a bit thankful. I will not be watching anymore vlogs from her unless it's a reupload or a cut from another creator, but I will also not search for it willingly.
For me, watching this video was...dark. Like I said, I was a big fan of her vlogs, and the energy shift activated my flight or fight. Trisha explained my feelings really well in her podcast about the underlying malice in her just being so forefront. Her eyes are just dead & dark, and it's painful to watch her now trying to act like life is good when you can tell she's screaming on the inside, and I also have a theory she made cuts to hide her crying. She is trying to mask & it's so clear. The type of vlogging is also shockingly different in that this vlog didn't show her kids, family, friends or husband in it which is very unlike any other vlog, and I think it was intentional. I kind of don't think she's going to last long, but maybe I'm just being too hopeful...because it really does speak volumes that she's shown zero accountability & clearly isn't that embarrassed by herself. She's angry her ukulele got so much hate, not embarrassed that it was an AWFUL take on "addressing rumors". She still meant every lyric of the Toxic Gossip Train. Honestly, while I'm glad she's doing ok, I'm simultaneously furious that she isn't at her rock bottom yet. It makes me sick to even see new uploads, much less watching the content of them...
Side note: Colleen is giving Gabbie Hanna vibes & can't believe I didn't see the resemblance before. Delusional narcissists who get a lot of therapy but have shown no growth & continue to act crazy when everyone is screaming at them to stop. I don't like where this is headed. I have a feeling I'm about to witness another one of my ex-idols go from normalish influencer to mental hospital behavior...IFKYK
I love that they change the green screen background to a bed to make it look like he was sitting on the floor
100% of those 3 minutes was just handing her army (empty) talking points, in case anyone was ever brave enough to call her out. Bc now they can just parrot “she’s trying to move on!!! She has kids leave her alone!! You don’t have to be on this journey with her so leave!!!” I hate that the worst people on the internet forever get away with everything.
I agree with Olivia on the birthday theory. Her birthday is also when she did the childhood cancer fundraiser every year.
The way she worded it , she sounds like she is owning the hand in the pants to get the cheeseballs and stuff the parents had issue with more than what she did to Adam and trisha. She is only 'apologizing' to the demographic she cares about." Please, parents, I'll be better don't stop buying my stuff for your kids."
I’ve watched the reaction videos to see what she had to say because I was curious but didn’t want her to have the views. So right!
The amount of times she said “and, um” is maddening.
I also want to say that you are right about the fan base probably not knowing about what happened. I’m 41 and I just found out this year who she is, who Trisha is, who you all are. I had people I watched on UA-cam but I didn’t go on often, I don’t watch the news much because it upsets me, and I don’t follow gossip usually. Some of us are just not as internet savvy.🤷♀️
That's fine. The problem is when those people start defending her with out knowing what's actually going on.
But to be fair, you’re not in her demographic. Her main fanbase are kids and teenagers that either don’t know what happened or don’t care.
she clearly doesn't feel that kind and apologetic when she hasn't even given the victims a direct apology lol
I always feel bad when Olivia gets cut off or can’t speak ❤❤
And she gets cut off for absolute nonsense reasons.
That's unfortunate you never feel good ♥️
If there was no PowerPoint I would have never watched the whole thing.
Colleen usually does a Christmas vlogmas (1 bud a day?) in December, so that may have influenced the timing of the return to UA-cam.
My thought exactly 💰💰💰
She’s not apologizing for anything. She hasn’t stated what she’s apologizing for/taking accountability for. So until she states what she’s sorry about, this is not an apology. It’s nothing.
Adam is mirroring the aesthetics on purpose ironically. 'I see what you're doing and paying close attention' vibes
Olivia coming in hot with the PPT…..”so it’s been 145 days….” 😂 love her
Oh Olivia was READY today, she was not gonna be caught up with anything this time - AND SHE'S SERVING C-WORD AS USUAL
She's deleting any negative comments...
No Trisha revolutionized the on the floor period. On the floor in the closet, in front of the couch, in front of the bed, on the kitchen floor.
Olivia PowerPoints are just the best!!!! Thank you Olivia!!! Appreciate the work you put in.
I haven't seen any comments saying this (so far) - but her apology felt like it was insincere and she only did it because she wanted to continue vlogging like nothing happened. 'Yeah i fucked up . . . ANYWAY FALL VLOG'
She’s back because of holiday ad revenue.
I knew she'd have to come back if she wanted to keep her monetization, but I really didnt want it to happen :/
she is back for Vlogmas and you know it!!!
I just realized I dont care about Colleen anymore.
Honestly, a lot can be mean girl behavior until she sent nudes to minors as a mockery, or askednxor fams to send videos with a tampon in their mouth. As an opinion leader on amy community that was careless and irresponsible.
so happy he sang “not a perfect personnn🎶” cause i did too and i haven’t heard anyone else do it yet thank u
I just want Ethan and Trisha to make up. I truly think she’s changed.
She hasn't changed. She has just learned to hide it better and say what people want to hear. She is still disgusting and a hypocrite
I think it’s hilarious that this video is about Colleen’s apology but the comment section is just like JENNA COME BACK. But for real. JENNA COME BACK.
She came back just in time to collect for ads!!!
Olivia lookin fire and doing another great job
Omfg I was an Andrew Callaghan fan b4 the accusations. I’m so glad you’re talking about it bc it makes me so upset
and literally nobodies talking about it
Everyone deserves a second chance
And third
Fourth
Fifth etc
(Sarcasm)
didnt he like full on admit that he has a problem too
Aren’t most of the accusations literally hearsay
I love this podcast, I really needed y’alls company that day. They seriously do so much in terms of production that it does actually ‘frustrate’ me they don’t get more credit for it. I’m talking in terms of the wild amount of unwarranted hate from former fans/react UA-camrs, and the sub count forever hovering right under 3M, w/ the last big fluctuation being due to the obv 🇮🇱 situation. Blah blah, my real point again is how much is put into every show by every member of the crew, everyone contributes so much and nobody has to pick up the slack, ever. What podcast has an outstanding team member dedicated to sound bites? Zach has an entire curated catalog of music, sounds, inside jokes, and on top of that is like savant level amazing at it (and it’s not just his job, he lives audio production and is an incredible live musician). In terms of the visual side, by another long term show member Ian, shows his mastery in switching with the fluidity showing in his transitions & keeping up with every crew member live. Can’t mention him without Sam, who has shown she is wildly talented, in the culinary arts & design, and totally deserves her promotion in Teddy Fresh: she’s going to go very far in design. Now onto my boy Dan, who is of course ‘Queen’, which I still giggle at, we all know how much he does for everyone, especially Ethan (keeping him on track), and has been there since day one. Then for more, newer team members, like AB & Lena, the beautiful married couple who as we all know do so much research for Ethan live on the show for 40k+ viewers, and working as Ethan & Hila’s personal assistant. Then Olivia! Whom now creates these PowerPoints which is such a genius engaging way to present content like the Coleen situation, content that other channels present so boring despite it being the exact same subject matter. And I wouldn’t forget Cameron, the handsome deep voiced angel who grew up an hour from me in the Northeast US. His art is so, so good and I’m wasn’t surprised at all he was a former Adult Swim employee. The quick wit and fast art/meme creation on the fly is again so fcking cool to me, as again I can’t name one podcast that has all these elements listed, let alone HALF, and not only that, they have it covered & down to a science. On top of everything I just outlined, they do this 4 times a week! 🚨 While most podcasts with their sized following aren’t pumping out nearly close to what they are. I’m from Maine, and have been suffering from chronic illness that’s had me bedridden off & on for the last 7 years, so it’s very unlikely I’d make it to a live show or LA meet n’ greet. But! I can keep thinking positive, and maybe someday a doctor will clear me for travel (that’s if I could every afford it, my treatment takes every dime I get). Can’t lie it’s like a real goal of mine. Nobody will read this, but hey I felt compelled. Love y’all! Family, Family, Family ☮️&❤
Really thoughtful appreciation. 😊
that was beautiful
if i hear her say "and um...." ONE MORE TIME looooooool it could be a drinking game at this point
Why would you say this? I didn’t notice it tell now 😂
I love that she talks about her new rock hobby before she mentions her first born starting school and soccer for the first time when mentioning "big" updates
A point for why she came back that wasn't on the power point - the time of year. Christmas is coming up. That sweet juicy holiday ad revenue. Could be part of it. Also iirc, wasn't there like some shady shit around her doing the fundraisers? I don't remember what, but I just remember hearing there was something sussy about it.
I do find it kind of funny though, with her and the rocks, and tumbling and stuff. That kind of stuff I've noticed has been blowing up on TikTok, and YT shorts, so I do find it a bit funny how during her come back she's doing that now too
If she gave a proper apology she’d be admitting to crimes. That’s it.
You missed huge point at The start she Said she made The apology ukulele shlt knowingly to mock The situation!
She’s gonna get away with it and it pisses me off
The 5% soundbite seriously made me laugh out loud
Ethan with the ukulele background is sending me 😂
the way she said last two months has been in therapy. girl do you get therapy every day and every hour of the day
I'm only watching her this way thru other youtubes to not give her the views or traffic period.
Olivia PowerPoints are my favourite thing ever. We need a Roman and Brittney Atwood PowerPoint lol
I commented on her video and called her a cockroach (she just won't leave) and my comment was deleted 😭
She's never present with her kids anyway=how present can you be when you are constantly thinking about the camera and placement and content?!?! That combined with her ADHD and constantly going from one thing to the next you can see how little she is actually present with any of them, sad. I'm not saying ADHD make one unable to be present with their kids, it's the fact that she is choosing to vlog that I think makes it not a good thing.
Kindly shut your mouth about things you don’t understand.
As a mum of kids the same age I'm jealous of the footage she has of them, they change and grow so quickly and I'd love to be able to look back on all the videos she has (for me privately, not shared with the entire internet)
She apologized to the fans and not the victims
I'm OBSESSED with Olivia's fit/makeup in this episode 🧐🤩😍🤩
Yah it’s a no for me. I didn’t even watch after the “blanket apology “ great timing for monetization. Had she specifically named the key ppl she hurt. That would’ve made a difference to me and to them. But the oops sorry let’s get back to it. No. Not enough.
I hate that coleens comment section is so full of praise and people that think its wonderfull
That wood on her bed is either pine or Nordic cherry.
I don't honestly know what I think about this I posted a comment on IG and people were going nuts. It was like the shortest clip on defnoodles IG account.
I said she should have started with this rather than a silly uke song - hopefully she's actually taken accountability and understands the actual seriousness of it. (Again I hadn't actually watched the full thing just a shirt clip)
Colleen's done far more good than bad in the grand scheme of things with a character that did push the boundaries of what was acceptable and what was not. Ethan's channel is the only one I'll give a view to which specializes in building people up. Then tearing them back down for the drama/views while hiding behind their ritious backdrop. Like Tabloids do. I feel sorry for creators who did so much for Cancer, and kids but made some awful decisions while messaging fans & doling out gifts. These platforms are a new human experiment without boundaries & rules. Lets take this into account before destroying the lives of Moms & families for that rituous Tabloid Dollar.
Her video is just a short version of her ukulele video.
when Ethan does his southern accent, he sounds a bit like boom Howard from King of the Hill 😂
Trisha has also been lying up until recently (and still probably recently being honest) and she does the ‘I used to be’ or ‘years ago’ thing and everyone just melts for her. What’s different
My sister (Heather) and her friend (Becky) had a "B & H Party" for their birthdays that were on the same weekend. Everyone had to dress up as something beginning with either B or H.
Can't wait for the Behavioural Panel to analyse her video.
I’m from Santa Barbara, and I just wanna say that we’ve got LOTS of creeks! 🤣 grew up going to creeks catching tadpoles, looking at dragonflies, and even watching them overflow during raining season too! 🌧️ a big part of my childhood core memories. Lolz 😝
Damn haven’t thought about Channel 5 in a while. Sucks how everyone’s exposed as a freak in the end
The justice system needs to change. They don’t take anything serious or do anything about anything. Ridiculous. Obviously, I understand that it would be his word against hers or whoever is involved, but they should be looking into it and going to court to figure it out.
you right… ridiculous she’s not behind bars now!!!!
Olivia’s PowerPoints are the best
1:09 Correction: she’s not trying to go back to “before it all happened.” She’s trying to go back to before she got caught
The way she says “and um” honestly sounds SO scripted! Like someone told her to throw in in there every few words so it sounds authentic
She’s back when no one asked
"That's a horrible rock collection" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Did no one mention that she chopped her hair?! As someone who used to watch, it's always been mid-long length no?. Colleen absolutely needs to do better, but you know girl is feeling big feelings chopping her hair like that and also getting into rocks while she's been away. Hopefully she'll come to more realization of her actions for the sake of everyone she still needs to apologize to individually
I enjoy watching Collen Vlogs and have done it for years. I dont believe anything of the "drama" people are telling. If it is that serious, well you take care of it. If Colleen is back, doesnt that say anything to you?
Like yeah let the authorities take care of it why did u care
@@MiCKeyChannel0031 Exactly. Let the authorities take care of it. It is just bad and selfish to go on youtube and do a video about a creator you once loved and followed so hard. (yes talking about adam mcintyre). Why did i care? Or why do i care? The behavior from Adam is not acceptable. Even if it happen or somethingelse happen, you dont share it publicy to the world on youtube.I just saying Karma will get you back.
Just fyi you’re defending someone who sent p*rnography to a minor.
The photoshop is incredible 😂
