      Streaming on youtube after creating your channel is the most dumbest thing a person can do. First, upload videos to build your channel to like 50k subs or 100k and then start streaming but on twitch it's much easier for sure!

    Can we please get a Sidemen F1 irl video? Obviously probably with go karts where each sidemen chooses their second driver so you have close to a full grid. Have qualifying, maybe a sprint and then a full race. And maybe even to top it off there’s a media day where you guys can make an actual f1 intro. Just an idea. Cheers

    Josh buddy, idea for an Olympics 2012 series in 2024, hunt down brits who competed in them, and play them at game whilst interviewing them about the real experience of being there, season 2 can be other countries? Just an idea, I bet there are plenty of scope for content. 😊
