I am sure Brian has learned the hard way this time and I hope he can find a way back to his best because his content over the years has been very good. I think he needed this downfall to reflect, I just wish it wasn't at the expense of others. Thank you for the video Vizeh, I look forward to more like this 👍
I really enjoyed the video and agreed with most of the conclusions made with regards some of the errors of judgement Brian has made over the years. The old adage that 'You have to pick your battles' seems apt here as although 95% of the discerning world think Andrew Tate as God's gift to the toilet seat, he's not the sort of litigious psychopath you want as an enemy. Similarly, the smug and reptilian Laurence McKenna was the reason a lot of people stopped watching the Kick Off (you can also add McKola, Jennings and Buvey to the mix) I've always liked the big fella. He's honest and forthright but just needs to learn that one man's irreverent is another's de-monitized video or revoked sponsorship deal.
Channel stepped up fella. Used to watch the fifa vids years ago but distanced from them eventually. This new form of content is unreal, unique and insightful. Props to ya. Glad ended up back here
Honestly it’s sad to see truegeordies downfall because I genuinely think he’s a good person at heart. But it’s hard to argue that this downfall isn’t self inflicted. Personally I think Brian should go on a break and just completely refresh himself and get himself back into a happy place
Nah he made a joke and people got offended. He shouldn’t have apologised and he should have kept going. The apology is what destroyed him. It clearly wasn’t genuine because he didn’t believe he should’ve and made it about himself and Laurence didn’t have the balls to push him like he would have done in the past.
@@mikelitorous5570 not just that but he gave a platform to 2 Islamists who literally think people who leave islam deserve to die on their channel and much worse. Anyone who has heard of Ali dawah has seen his 'and we're proud of that' video.
@@theunbeatable6598 His joke was aimed at Andrew Tate who called Islamic terrorists who blow themselves up the real Muslims, people seem more offended by his joke than the bull that Tate has spouted.
as someone fairly new to geordie’s channel, this was a very enlightening video. very informative. hope he turns it around, but it seems he just continuously goes through the same rotation. great video
The effort you put into these videos are crazy I know how long editing takes and can only imagine spending 3-4 hours finding clips, tweets and images of a something. Continue the grind Vizeh🙌
Used to love the kick off. As someone living in America with not many die hard football friends, it was always great tuning in and hearing all the boys talk. Was always envious of that.
@@Vizeh I'd say to cover the corruption starting into football, and feeder clubs which are involved in fishy transfers in larger corporations like CityFootball
As a fan of the podcast from before they even interviewed Shearer, I agree with how you feel about Laurence. I still enjoy his own RUclips channel, when he's just on his own talking about football he feels a bit like his old self. Maybe a freshen up is what The Kick Off needs, I think it might have been getting a little stale anyway. Moving heaven and earth to get Hugh Wizzy back would be a great idea imo. Show went massively down when he left.
I actually met Lawrence McKenna last year while traveling from Paris to London. Sat with him on the train. He was really lovely, didn’t speak down to me or anything, was actually showing interest in me and what I do. Asked questions etc. and spoke to me for over an hour. Make of that what you will.
I think the problem with TG, as you said, is that his main appeal was to be the regular dude. Someone who everyone was able to relate to... But then once the image of the relatable was broken it took away the usp that people were drawn to. The other thing is the volume of scandals. I think of someone like def noodles... Eventually bad publicity adds up and I think this was that point.
@@barry4649 nah he labelled ever muslim as a terrorist just because he wanted to insult tate and i dont respect that because its a major propaganda picture of westerners. The biggest terrorist were/are the christian westerners who did imperialism and colonialism. We muslims won’t stand for slander against our religion especially when it comes from the oppressors mouth
@@markusengel4701 it wasn’t aimed at Muslims though. It was poking fun at how Andrew Tate had said and I quote “the only real Muslims are the ones who go around chopping peoples heads off and setting people on fire like Isis because that’s what their stupid book tells them to do”, and for him to then “convert” to Islam after saying that vile shit, saying he should kill himself like how ISis do can’t be offensive at all with that part included, and anyway a joke about Muslims blowing themselves up when some Muslims who have blown themselves up in isis members should be ok because any sane person knows that most Muslims aren’t doing that same as how not all Irish people are in the IRA which I as an Irish person would have no problem hearing jokes about Irish people doing car bombings even though I think the people who do it are a disgrace and don’t represent us as a nation, same thing with white kids in America being school shooters or Catholic priests being pedophiles, it should be ok to joke about as should suicide bombers
@@cpmoseley2105 Hugh is smart dude . He realised it’s better to grow your own channel. Something Rory and Adam have started to do since Brians “downfall “ .
Looking at specifically the DM situation, I forgot the amount of homophobia was directed towards Brian. God, that situation exposed the worst in people. Great job Viz, you're on a roll
@@Vizeh I know, like who cares, it's not like he was doing anything non-consensual. People should save such criticism for actual abusers and harrasers. With regards to the rest especially the Islamophobic comments, he deserved the criticism.
“Homophobia”. Sorry but most normal people find that kind of behavior to be disgusting. I certainly do. Using some buzzword can’t erase the natural reaction people have, which is disgust
Really hope Geordie makes a comeback, I do feel the outlash was too harsh considering most of the people who had a problem with the situation, were Tate Fanboys. I've watched Geordies content since before he started his podcast, he's brought many good memories for me as a young high schooler then, just jamming to his vids whilst in school etc, hope he's learned, hope he can make amends and ultimately come back some way or another
Mate all I have to say is fair play to you...your content has stepped up so much in the past weeks and am genuinely surprised that you aren't already at 500k subscribers
I found out about him in early 2015 when Spencer fc was doing a football manager series with him and Highwizzy. I decided to check out his channel, and I instantly loved his content, both the personal and the gaming stuff (in particular the Newcastle career mode and Shearer's road to glory on FIFA 15 and 16) were the pinnacle of his early success for me. What he produced was quality. He genuinely seemed like an honest and humble guy, who despite his constant ranting, was a fun content creator. After that he started to change quite a bit. He started to grow as a content creator and even started his own podcast. After a while he had people like Shearer (his biggest idol) and Ricky Gervais on his podcast, which was great to see. Unfortunately for some of his lifelong fans, he started to delete his older videos, not just some of them but basically all of them that made him the person he is today. I also want to add that I can't stand that Laurence guy, he just comes across as rude and arrogant, and he was one of the main reasons why I gave up watching his content. It's a shame because his older videos were hilarious.
Ah yes, thank you for reminding me that he deleted/hid all of his old content, which as you say, is what made him famous... it was as though he moved on from his grassroots/base fans - into the unrecognisable thing he became. Laurence, I've always found condescending and untrustworthy.
Watching this makes me sad honestly. I remember being a fan years ago, going through the same pain, of Newcastle just being terrible and such. To see where he is now, it's unrecognizable. While I can be happy for his success in many areas, but in some areas. Yikes.
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending!
I’ve been a fan of Liam since the Burnley Vlogs back in the championship and I followed his fifa content since. I’ve grown out of fifa with my age and lost contact with his channel but his content recently has been brilliant, these longer documentary style videos are class keep it up
Been watching you for years, and this new style of yours is amazing. Every video is incredibly informative, no matter what the topic is. Excellent stuff Viz, keep it up!
That was a really good put together video! I rarely comment on videos but feel compelled to. Never been a fan of True Geordie but maybe that is because I only found Brians content once he was in the arrogant/ego stage you mention in the video. So as someone that came late to the party I've always seen this current version of Brian, I don't see a good person or someone with a good heart that many in the comments are mentioning; if you believe this man is a good person then you really need some better people in your lives. I believe money and fame is like alcohol, it amplifies who that person is deep down. Brian has always been quick to make reactionary videos where others have slipped up and made mistakes where he has hounded them for it; goading that they take account and then each time I've witnessed this man screw up he does the complete opposite. To this day I believe he has considerably the worst apology video I've ever had the misfortune of watching. What is worrying is that those around him actually believed it was wise to publish that video; absolutely anyone around him that saw that video before it was published to RUclips and didn't tell him its a terrible idea isn't someone he should have around him - it was so bad it almost felt like a hatchet job. I am pretty sure he ended it with like and subscribe; all you need to know about this individual. He only then made a proper apology video because of the backlash; not because he was sorry. He was just sorry it didn't go down well. Laurence McKenna is just as odious and has showed his lack of backbone on multiple occasions while continuing to pander to Brian. Their comments regarding Clash of Creators was disgusting and clearly had forgotten about their more humble beginnings; clearly Brian had forgotten how he started where he was making content with a phone perched on an ironing board, apparently. Laurence was definitely worse than Brian on this but as per usual they don't hold one another to account. This was Laurences coming of fame/ego and just like alcohol your personality is amplified and little shock Laurence hasn't got a good one. That said Brian did come out of the August 2019 mocking of leaked DMs very well and I feel like what he gets upto in the bedroom as long as its legal and consensual I really couldn't give a toss. I have more issue with whoever leaked the DMs as clearly they are someone lacking in integrity and clout chasing. It was a perfect response by Brian and he owned it. This isn't the only time I've had some credit given to Brian; as a big boxing fan I actually really enjoyed how he challenged Tyson Fury over his then upcoming Derek Chisora fight but it was I am pretty sure only days later he made his stupid comments about Andrew Tate. While those 15 seconds were beyond stupid it wasn't his first comments of this nature and surprised you didn't include it as it shows the true stain that is his personality; that time Laurence also didn't check him for it which again shows what he is made of. I don't give him any credit for his 'Talks Islam' video because it isn't genuine. He wasn't genuinely interested; he was just 'doing time' and did it to save his channel(s) and to appeal to the more forgiving and naïve.
@@laurencemckenna given the amount of hours upon hours of footage pumped out on RUclips and far more telling hours upon hours of live unedited raw footage on Twitch; yes, I and we do. Unless of course this whole time you've been disingenuous and played a character the entire time I concede.
@@YoiAmGucci I say this with an open heart. I regret taking part in critical culture like this, on videos I made. The level of judgment and impact it has on people is huge. Dressing up a video as concern and then acting like any level of research has been done is disingenuous. RUclips comments aren’t the place to get into this but what you said about me is wide of the mark and lazy. If you want to talk about it, come find me on messages on any platform but this ain’t it.
@@laurencemckennayour comment is helping to prove his point. You’re arrogant and condescending. You can pretend that isn’t the case but you literally just demonstrated that behavior in real time with your reply😂
I absolutely love him, I’ve watched him for absolute years, I think he’s a normal lad from a council estate, as a fellow geordie I can imagine how the change of becoming famous has made him: wish the best for him x
He WAS a normal lad. He was relatable and I followed him when his Nile ranger video came out. Unfortunately he’s just an arrogant bellend now. But that’s money and fame for you
I will say this, I want to wish the best for True Geordie. I fully believe that he has learnt from his mistakes and that he will find a way back to making good content.
I think it's a damn shame that the thing that did the most damage to Brian was a joke he made to Andrew Tate of all people... The jokes weren't that bad, it was funny and people need to grow a thicker skin. The saddest thing I have noticed is that he deleted all of his older videos... The ones where it's just him talking about football.
I was a long time subscriber to the kick off, and to Brian and the other lads, and when this happened I didn’t really think much of it because he’d said controversial things in the past. But the way he dealt with it, and that original apology video really rubbed me the wrong way, so I quoted him on Twitter and gave my thoughts. They weren’t attacking him, they were genuinely constructive, he then proceeded to block me on everything, Twitter, IG, and when I put into his chat about it, I was banned from the streams too. Just sucks, I didn’t hate him for it, didn’t even really care about what he said I just wish he would’ve taken more accountability at first, because everything after that then seemed like damage control. He doesn’t owe me anything just because I’ve given money, but when you’ve spent money of the course of years subscribing and super chats etc… to get blocked because you said you didn’t think he dealt with this in the right way, idk it felt unjust. He has every right to block whoever he wants, but at the same time just felt like he wasn’t interested in what any of his longtime fans actually felt about the situation. If you mentioned it it’s a straight block.
Thanks for the vid. I was curious . Real friends call you out and stick with you . If they leave that’s their choice . I still enjoy his content from time to time
It doesnt sit right with me that Adam Mckola, Rory and the other guy just essentially abandoned him and copied the format. Just proper users and clearly arent true friends.
I think it was more about money, when he lost those sponsorships he couldn't afford the regular lads anymore, Mckola obviously explained why he left. Weeks before the Tate comment Brian said he couldn't afford the regulars every weekend, there was a weekend with a big game but it was just Brian and Loz when people asked why he said he couldn't afford to pay everyone all the time
Tbh, I was unaware of the controversy Brian was/is involved in until now. As someone who use to watch The Kickoff religiously. To someone who over time watched Brian & Laurence's content less & less. Today I saw an episode of The Kickoff on the recent Liverpool beat down of United. And found it surprising to see Brian doing the show all by himself. Which in years past, a Liverpool vs Man United game on The Kickoff. Would've had a full panel of guests! Why I sought out your video to get the full story. I think you did a great job of presenting the information about the controversy without bias. And did an especially good job of showing how Brian built up his show, podcast, etc. As far as my own reasons for not watching The Kickoff anymore. Starting a few months back. I just got tired of people like Rory Jennings being a clickbait merchant. Laurence McKenna talking down to everyone. And then claiming he's "misunderstood". & Adam McKola just being a dick. Along with slowly watching Brian become so egotistical & disconnected. 1 aspect of The Kickoff I particularly grew disdain for. Was how Brian & Laurence helped build up Rory Jennings & Adam McKola's RUclips following. But didn't offer that same help to people like James Wolcott & Buvey. It's like if you're not a part of their RUclips cool kids club. They just use you for what you can offer them. But don't reciprocate any professional help the other way. If they deem you unfit to be a part of their club. They didn't even include Buvey in The Kickoff's new pre-show video. Despite him being 1 of the guest's who got the biggest reactions on episodes of The Kickoff. Or James for that matter. Even though he's 1 of the smartest minds covering the Premier League. And while my passion for the Premier League is stronger than ever. Now I just watch individuals like James Walcott, Buvey, etc. Thanks for making this video. Well done!👍👊
Man the internet is wild, I always thought that if I were to become anything on youtube i'd be having to delete a lot of group chats because jokes are jokes to some people but attack to others. The Andrew Tate joke i'm sure has been said a million times but within the context of Geordie it's cancel-worthy
The way Laurence spoke to people on the Kick Off was shocking at times. Like mate you can debate someone without having to patronise and condescend them and if you can't then maybe you're not as smart as you think. Don't watch the show anymore but do watch Hugh Wizzy on the daily.
Would love another football nostalgia video. As much as we all wear rose tinted glasses when it comes to football and fifa during our childhood, it really felt so much better then, down to the presentation on tv. The amount of world class strikers in the late 2000s/early 2010s was mad - Ibra, rvp, Rooney, drogba, torres, Villa, Suarez, tevez, muller, eto’o and so many more compared to now where there’s barely a handful of proper world class strikers outside of haaland
The way he handled the leaked sex DMs was absolute genius. But... ... The Kick Off was horrific. I hated everyone on it. Egomaniacs who's viewpoint was ONLY filtered through the blinkered love of their team. Cackling little boys club. Honestly, it made me go back to watching ITV and BBC commentary - which is almost just as appalling.
Just found your channel a few weeks ago, love your videos and I can’t believe your channel hasn’t blown up yet! Great topics, brilliant coverage of each topic, commentary and videos themselves are fantastic as well! You got a new fan in me all the way from Chicago!!
I;ve watched Geordie and think he'll bounce back no one gets permanently cancelled these days. I'd like to see old style Geordie podcasts they just feel like interviews now imo where as before no matter what big names he had or celebrities if felt like a load of mates having good banter and talking about serious stuff as well and getting the different opinions of Geordie and Lawrence it worked really well and they bounced off each other very well.
My girlfriend is a Muslim and she found what Brian said to be funny, she didn’t care at all. Although she doesn’t speak for all Muslims obviously. I think there was a lot of 2nd hand offence taking place.
@@Vizeh It’s a difficult situation. Would people make the same amount of fuss if he made the joke about Irish people due to IRA history? Maybe. We can have one of two worlds. One where people say offensive things, but people have enough mental toughness to disregard them as just words. Another where people struggle emotionally when they hear offensive things so offensive comments are not allowed. Ultimately which one are we aiming for? We can only have one. So which of the options is better? Maybe too philosophical for a Monday 😀. Great Video by the way.
Great vid again Liam, I've also been watching Brian for like 5-6 years and I definitely agree the content has got worse and less relatable. I actually quite liked True News- mocking the rest of the Internet and showing how weird it can be. I used to always watch the kick off as well. But I do agree his podcast was always his best work. I feel like he switched to prioritising the kick off as he saw an open lane to earn money in, and then made it more professional to appeal more to brands. Essentially meaning the downfall of his content would be prioritising money making. His apology vids really show this as well- they don't seem authentic and seem like he's trying to save his brand and his money rather than apologising to those he has hurt. I really do hope his content does improve though because I still think the guy is a great and entertaining guy at heart, he just needs to fix up the direction of his content.
I first watched his video talking to a bloke called Paul Hannaford, who was a huge drug addict and went through some crazy things. He then turned his life around and now educates kids in schools. I then started watching his other videos and thought that they were good. I hope he sorts out whatever problems he may have.
Mate your videos are brilliant. Really love the new style. Cant wait for your "The Darkside of Man City" video, as I am sure it will be great and will help us understand what the hell is going on. All the best to and your family. Keep it up!
I saw your post on twitter regarding getting blocked. So I was curious. I'm a fan of TG, and I'm from newcastle, so probably have a bit of a bias. But I insisted on watching every second of this, because I wanted to see if the blocking was justified and seemed like you were confused in your tweet. I think the problem with this video (and it's a good video explaining everything that's happened) is exactly what the video is. You're highlighting everything that has happened, while TG tries to move forward, he doesn't need people focusing on what has happened, he is a human, and even to this day, is still littered with jokes and abuse because of the texts that got leaked. A leak that if he was a woman, would be seen as the victim because of the leak, but instead is piled on. That is why he turns off most of his comments - this wasn't touched on in the video, not really. As for the video itself, you started it as saying that you were going to be impartial - the video then spiralled into you just sharing your opinion on everything - that is rather partial, as is my opinion, as is everyone's opinion and that's fine, but perhaps the problem is more so framing it as 'impartiality' when it's not. So I think that's why you got blocked. You both insulted him and Laurence, even Rory for a laugh as well. It's all about framing and you framed it one way, while presenting it differently. You accused TG of certain things near the end and so of course he was going to take that personally. It's not impartial. With that said, it was a good video, but I think if you were to put yourself on the receiving end of this video, and listen to how you're wording things and framing situations, events, opinions, you'll soon realise this video COULD just become hate bait for people to hate on TG, and he has been vocal in ensuring the negativity isn't a focus for him as that's when his depression truly suffers. He turned off the comments for the safety of his mental health and life and that is why he blocked you.
@@Devghost Vizeh tweeted confused why TG blocked him. I explained from TGs point of view why. I actually liked the video on a personal level, but the video was definitely entwined with personal opinions which he said he would avoid as a preface. 😊
Brilliant video jet again Liam! I watched the Kick Off a lot during lock down and I am a big fan of True Geordie but ever since the Tate comment I haven't seen a video since. Not because of him or the comment, but the vibe isn't there anymore, and the mains guys like Rory, McKola and Buvey are now doing their own thing now.
I was a big fan. Basically up until the Muslim drama. Since then not watched at all, besides what made the kickoff great was never TG, it was always people like Lawrence, Buvey, Hugh Wizzy, Adam and Rory. The fact that The Club is also now a thing is probably the biggest reason for the decline in views.
Brian seems like a decent guy, but from a tough background where money, sex and cars were very tempting as they are usually the reserve of which people (bar sex ofc!), and it was immersive for him like a Geordie Wolf of Ball Street. "Loz" in my opinion suffers from narcissism, which he lets himself believe is his sense of humour. Since Georgie got Loz in maybe this was doomed to happen. I guess also society is increasingly sensitive and Geordie is very straight talking.
I have taken a break from the True Geordie Channel. I plan to go back when Newcastle make the CL and watch his reactions. It promises to be beautiful. True Geordie is your weird friend who keeps fuvking up but you don't want to see fail, so you give them another chance over and over again. And I'll forgive him as many times as it takes. I love True Geordie's rise, just like Newcastle's rise again. I want to see it continue. But I needed this video to process my emotions on the topic. Thanks, Vizeh.
My opinion before watching the video. True Geordie is one of the hardest working content creators out there. I believe his podcasting ability is second to none in the uk. I think his old friends backstabbed him after the controversy. I also believe that he didn’t deserve to be cancelled after one bad joke. He hasn’t scammed anyone. He hasn’t committed any crimes. He just made a bad joke and lost everything. Meanwhile other RUclipsrs commit far worse and get a slap on the wrist
I can 100% say I can’t/couldn’t stand Laurence and it’s drove me away from watching the kick off and any content he was involved in, that as a byproduct had me have very little sympathy for TG when he managed to essentially cancel himself a few months ago! You summarise Laurence perfectly here in how he just became more and more unbearable as he felt his own head swell and got ‘bigger’
he should stick to podcasts, that's his area, his strength. i hope he comes back. his Khabib vs Connor watchalong was amazing. so was Europa league final when Sarri beat Unai emery, probably the most entertaining editions
Fantastic video Liam. In regards to the KickOff, not only did it seem like the panel (of Geordie, Lawrence, Buvey, Adam and Rory) was just spouting out outrageous tales and not “knowing ball” whatsoever, but also I personally found the vibe/dynamics weird and the panel itself not particularly likeable
Massive fan of the Documentaries, I must admit I was getting bored of the FIFA content and the Gaming stuff as its not my thing, but I stayed long enough to watch these bangers, big us Viz love it, keep it up bro ❤👍
I had been wondering what happened to him but didn’t bother to ask Google, thanks for the video. He’ll rise again, all people struggle, and mistakes are NOT death nor a death sentence.
In terms of True Geordie, you live by the sword and you die by the sword. He engaged in cancel culture and lo and behold, he got swallowed by it. Unfortunately the people he had around him were there for opportunities and not for him personally. Oh well.
The KickOff is now purely Newcastle content, which has 2 issues 1- Lack of relevancy for the big clubs and their fans 2- A lot of people are not happy with the Newcastle takeover, treating it like Man City content
I used to watch Brian, this was before the podcast and I basically stopped when all the channel became was podcasts and live streams (and true news just feeling like a podcast); wasn't the same any longer. Never really heard about these incidents, but if I were to guess he lost himself. He became popular and didn't know what to do so he just lost himself... idk if he is trying to refind himself but I'm not sure I'll be going back, especially knowing the stuff mentioned. (Even if it isn't all brians fault.) As a sidenote - your recent content has really become one of the best out there, keep it up!
I use to watch him loads years ago, but podcasts aren’t so much my thing so I ended up distancing myself from the channel. I also began to notice the transformation of character that I couldn’t stand. I think you should have mention some of the hypocritical moments he has has over the past couple of years. I recall the controversy about the islamaphobic remarks Geordie made and the damage control he had to endure because of that cancellation, but I remember him bringing down BradDoesBanter when said his controversial joke. Keep up with the good work.

Thank you for being here my friend❤
Racists shouldn't get a way back
Dear Dan T: What time in the video signifies his downfall?
I really enjoyed the video and agreed with most of the conclusions made with regards some of the errors of judgement Brian has made over the years. The old adage that 'You have to pick your battles' seems apt here as although 95% of the discerning world think Andrew Tate as God's gift to the toilet seat, he's not the sort of litigious psychopath you want as an enemy. Similarly, the smug and reptilian Laurence McKenna was the reason a lot of people stopped watching the Kick Off (you can also add McKola, Jennings and Buvey to the mix) I've always liked the big fella. He's honest and forthright but just needs to learn that one man's irreverent is another's de-monitized video or revoked sponsorship deal.
See him critiquing things Conor McGregor said lately. The dude needs to remember what he said over the years.

We all hope he can do that too
Nah he made a joke and people got offended. He shouldn’t have apologised and he should have kept going. The apology is what destroyed him. It clearly wasn’t genuine because he didn’t believe he should’ve and made it about himself and Laurence didn’t have the balls to push him like he would have done in the past.

As a fan of the podcast from before they even interviewed Shearer, I agree with how you feel about Laurence. I still enjoy his own RUclips channel, when he's just on his own talking about football he feels a bit like his old self. Maybe a freshen up is what The Kick Off needs, I think it might have been getting a little stale anyway. Moving heaven and earth to get Hugh Wizzy back would be a great idea imo. Show went massively down when he left.
Hugh Wizzy is the goat 100%
The Kick Off show they did at the weekend was their best in years imo, they had the Irish Guy and some other guys and was hilarious tbh
@@barry4649 agreed mate
I actually met Lawrence McKenna last year while traveling from Paris to London. Sat with him on the train. He was really lovely, didn’t speak down to me or anything, was actually showing interest in me and what I do. Asked questions etc. and spoke to me for over an hour.
Make of that what you will.
Why would he speak down to you? He's someone who films videos. He should be normal?
True geordie is a prime example how ego goes to people's head....
can already sense this will be a banger
love this new type of content
Thank you lad!
I think the problem with TG, as you said, is that his main appeal was to be the regular dude. Someone who everyone was able to relate to... But then once the image of the relatable was broken it took away the usp that people were drawn to.
The other thing is the volume of scandals. I think of someone like def noodles... Eventually bad publicity adds up and I think this was that point.
I do miss his old content I can’t lie, but we can say that about anyone I guess
He’s only had two scandals really though and both were fairly tame and blown out of proportion imo
@@Vizeh
Sadly he removed his old content, which really fucking sucks, it was top tier
@@barry4649 nah he labelled ever muslim as a terrorist just because he wanted to insult tate and i dont respect that because its a major propaganda picture of westerners. The biggest terrorist were/are the christian westerners who did imperialism and colonialism. We muslims won’t stand for slander against our religion especially when it comes from the oppressors mouth
@@markusengel4701 it wasn’t aimed at Muslims though. It was poking fun at how Andrew Tate had said and I quote “the only real Muslims are the ones who go around chopping peoples heads off and setting people on fire like Isis because that’s what their stupid book tells them to do”, and for him to then “convert” to Islam after saying that vile shit, saying he should kill himself like how ISis do can’t be offensive at all with that part included, and anyway a joke about Muslims blowing themselves up when some Muslims who have blown themselves up in isis members should be ok because any sane person knows that most Muslims aren’t doing that same as how not all Irish people are in the IRA which I as an Irish person would have no problem hearing jokes about Irish people doing car bombings even though I think the people who do it are a disgrace and don’t represent us as a nation, same thing with white kids in America being school shooters or Catholic priests being pedophiles, it should be ok to joke about as should suicide bombers
HughWizzy made the Kickoff so good. I'm glad to see he's succeeding without them.
We all do love Hugh Wizzy
I was so sad to hear when he all of a sudden left the kick off without any warning. I still watch him and enjoy his entertainment
the only one of them who was actually knowledgeable about the game. Replacing him with Mckola was dreadful
@@cpmoseley2105 Hugh is smart dude . He realised it’s better to grow your own channel. Something Rory and Adam have started to do since Brians “downfall “ .
Looking at specifically the DM situation, I forgot the amount of homophobia was directed towards Brian. God, that situation exposed the worst in people. Great job Viz, you're on a roll
It was truly awful what he got from that situation 100%
@@Vizeh I know, like who cares, it's not like he was doing anything non-consensual. People should save such criticism for actual abusers and harrasers. With regards to the rest especially the Islamophobic comments, he deserved the criticism.
@@dannymerrittmusic what did he say which was 'islamophobic' ?
“Homophobia”. Sorry but most normal people find that kind of behavior to be disgusting. I certainly do. Using some buzzword can’t erase the natural reaction people have, which is disgust
Really hope Geordie makes a comeback, I do feel the outlash was too harsh considering most of the people who had a problem with the situation, were Tate Fanboys. I've watched Geordies content since before he started his podcast, he's brought many good memories for me as a young high schooler then, just jamming to his vids whilst in school etc, hope he's learned, hope he can make amends and ultimately come back some way or another
I hope so too
Tate fanboys always are retards
Mate all I have to say is fair play to you...your content has stepped up so much in the past weeks and am genuinely surprised that you aren't already at 500k subscribers
I found out about him in early 2015 when Spencer fc was doing a football manager series with him and Highwizzy. I decided to check out his channel, and I instantly loved his content, both the personal and the gaming stuff (in particular the Newcastle career mode and Shearer's road to glory on FIFA 15 and 16) were the pinnacle of his early success for me. What he produced was quality. He genuinely seemed like an honest and humble guy, who despite his constant ranting, was a fun content creator. After that he started to change quite a bit. He started to grow as a content creator and even started his own podcast. After a while he had people like Shearer (his biggest idol) and Ricky Gervais on his podcast, which was great to see. Unfortunately for some of his lifelong fans, he started to delete his older videos, not just some of them but basically all of them that made him the person he is today. I also want to add that I can't stand that Laurence guy, he just comes across as rude and arrogant, and he was one of the main reasons why I gave up watching his content. It's a shame because his older videos were hilarious.
Ah yes, thank you for reminding me that he deleted/hid all of his old content, which as you say, is what made him famous... it was as though he moved on from his grassroots/base fans - into the unrecognisable thing he became. Laurence, I've always found condescending and untrustworthy.
Indeed. Laurence is genuinely one of the most unlikable tossers there is. He was one of the main reasons I stopped watching.
Watching this makes me sad honestly. I remember being a fan years ago, going through the same pain, of Newcastle just being terrible and such. To see where he is now, it's unrecognizable. While I can be happy for his success in many areas, but in some areas. Yikes.
I believe this experience may be good for him to refresh himself again I hope
@@Vizehhe a racist always will be
been watching you for years and it’s so cool that you’ve “matured” by making high quality content right now
keep it up
love it
Thank you so much man!
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending!
I’ve been a fan of Liam since the Burnley Vlogs back in the championship and I followed his fifa content since. I’ve grown out of fifa with my age and lost contact with his channel but his content recently has been brilliant, these longer documentary style videos are class keep it up
I’m loving making these videos too, thank you mate!
Been watching you for years, and this new style of yours is amazing. Every video is incredibly informative, no matter what the topic is. Excellent stuff Viz, keep it up!
Thank you so much lad❤️
That was a really good put together video! I rarely comment on videos but feel compelled to.
Never been a fan of True Geordie but maybe that is because I only found Brians content once he was in the arrogant/ego stage you mention in the video. So as someone that came late to the party I've always seen this current version of Brian, I don't see a good person or someone with a good heart that many in the comments are mentioning; if you believe this man is a good person then you really need some better people in your lives. I believe money and fame is like alcohol, it amplifies who that person is deep down. Brian has always been quick to make reactionary videos where others have slipped up and made mistakes where he has hounded them for it; goading that they take account and then each time I've witnessed this man screw up he does the complete opposite. To this day I believe he has considerably the worst apology video I've ever had the misfortune of watching. What is worrying is that those around him actually believed it was wise to publish that video; absolutely anyone around him that saw that video before it was published to RUclips and didn't tell him its a terrible idea isn't someone he should have around him - it was so bad it almost felt like a hatchet job. I am pretty sure he ended it with like and subscribe; all you need to know about this individual. He only then made a proper apology video because of the backlash; not because he was sorry. He was just sorry it didn't go down well.
Laurence McKenna is just as odious and has showed his lack of backbone on multiple occasions while continuing to pander to Brian. Their comments regarding Clash of Creators was disgusting and clearly had forgotten about their more humble beginnings; clearly Brian had forgotten how he started where he was making content with a phone perched on an ironing board, apparently. Laurence was definitely worse than Brian on this but as per usual they don't hold one another to account. This was Laurences coming of fame/ego and just like alcohol your personality is amplified and little shock Laurence hasn't got a good one.
That said Brian did come out of the August 2019 mocking of leaked DMs very well and I feel like what he gets upto in the bedroom as long as its legal and consensual I really couldn't give a toss. I have more issue with whoever leaked the DMs as clearly they are someone lacking in integrity and clout chasing. It was a perfect response by Brian and he owned it. This isn't the only time I've had some credit given to Brian; as a big boxing fan I actually really enjoyed how he challenged Tyson Fury over his then upcoming Derek Chisora fight but it was I am pretty sure only days later he made his stupid comments about Andrew Tate. While those 15 seconds were beyond stupid it wasn't his first comments of this nature and surprised you didn't include it as it shows the true stain that is his personality; that time Laurence also didn't check him for it which again shows what he is made of.
I don't give him any credit for his 'Talks Islam' video because it isn't genuine. He wasn't genuinely interested; he was just 'doing time' and did it to save his channel(s) and to appeal to the more forgiving and naïve.
You don’t know me.
@@laurencemckenna given the amount of hours upon hours of footage pumped out on RUclips and far more telling hours upon hours of live unedited raw footage on Twitch; yes, I and we do. Unless of course this whole time you've been disingenuous and played a character the entire time I concede.
@@YoiAmGucci I say this with an open heart. I regret taking part in critical culture like this, on videos I made. The level of judgment and impact it has on people is huge. Dressing up a video as concern and then acting like any level of research has been done is disingenuous. RUclips comments aren’t the place to get into this but what you said about me is wide of the mark and lazy. If you want to talk about it, come find me on messages on any platform but this ain’t it.
@@laurencemckennayour comment is helping to prove his point. You’re arrogant and condescending. You can pretend that isn’t the case but you literally just demonstrated that behavior in real time with your reply😂
I absolutely love him, I’ve watched him for absolute years, I think he’s a normal lad from a council estate, as a fellow geordie I can imagine how the change of becoming famous has made him: wish the best for him x
I wish best for him too
Cause most normal lads are begging to have girls take a dump on their chests lol
He WAS a normal lad. He was relatable and I followed him when his Nile ranger video came out. Unfortunately he’s just an arrogant bellend now. But that’s money and fame for you
I will say this, I want to wish the best for True Geordie. I fully believe that he has learnt from his mistakes and that he will find a way back to making good content.

Unreal video mate, these new style videos are an absolute credit to you and how good of a youtuber you are. Lots of love mate, keep smashing it
Glad you like them!❤️
I watch you from Hungary. I found your vids a couple weeks ago. But the last two, the iceberg and this..man, this is your style. Keep up this way.
I think it's a damn shame that the thing that did the most damage to Brian was a joke he made to Andrew Tate of all people...
The jokes weren't that bad, it was funny and people need to grow a thicker skin.
The saddest thing I have noticed is that he deleted all of his older videos... The ones where it's just him talking about football.
from what i can see he continues to be truthful and honest and the only ones to go away are those who hate truth
I was a long time subscriber to the kick off, and to Brian and the other lads, and when this happened I didn’t really think much of it because he’d said controversial things in the past. But the way he dealt with it, and that original apology video really rubbed me the wrong way, so I quoted him on Twitter and gave my thoughts. They weren’t attacking him, they were genuinely constructive, he then proceeded to block me on everything, Twitter, IG, and when I put into his chat about it, I was banned from the streams too. Just sucks, I didn’t hate him for it, didn’t even really care about what he said I just wish he would’ve taken more accountability at first, because everything after that then seemed like damage control. He doesn’t owe me anything just because I’ve given money, but when you’ve spent money of the course of years subscribing and super chats etc… to get blocked because you said you didn’t think he dealt with this in the right way, idk it felt unjust. He has every right to block whoever he wants, but at the same time just felt like he wasn’t interested in what any of his longtime fans actually felt about the situation. If you mentioned it it’s a straight block.
Thanks for the vid. I was curious . Real friends call you out and stick with you . If they leave that’s their choice . I still enjoy his content from time to time
It doesnt sit right with me that Adam Mckola, Rory and the other guy just essentially abandoned him and copied the format. Just proper users and clearly arent true friends.
I did find it odd how there were no communication about what happened previously honestly
I think it was more about money, when he lost those sponsorships he couldn't afford the regular lads anymore, Mckola obviously explained why he left. Weeks before the Tate comment Brian said he couldn't afford the regulars every weekend, there was a weekend with a big game but it was just Brian and Loz when people asked why he said he couldn't afford to pay everyone all the time
Tbh, I was unaware of the controversy Brian was/is involved in until now. As someone who use to watch The Kickoff religiously. To someone who over time watched Brian & Laurence's content less & less. Today I saw an episode of The Kickoff on the recent Liverpool beat down of United. And found it surprising to see Brian doing the show all by himself. Which in years past, a Liverpool vs Man United game on The Kickoff. Would've had a full panel of guests! Why I sought out your video to get the full story. I think you did a great job of presenting the information about the controversy without bias. And did an especially good job of showing how Brian built up his show, podcast, etc. As far as my own reasons for not watching The Kickoff anymore. Starting a few months back. I just got tired of people like Rory Jennings being a clickbait merchant. Laurence McKenna talking down to everyone. And then claiming he's "misunderstood". & Adam McKola just being a dick. Along with slowly watching Brian become so egotistical & disconnected. 1 aspect of The Kickoff I particularly grew disdain for. Was how Brian & Laurence helped build up Rory Jennings & Adam McKola's RUclips following. But didn't offer that same help to people like James Wolcott & Buvey. It's like if you're not a part of their RUclips cool kids club. They just use you for what you can offer them. But don't reciprocate any professional help the other way. If they deem you unfit to be a part of their club. They didn't even include Buvey in The Kickoff's new pre-show video. Despite him being 1 of the guest's who got the biggest reactions on episodes of The Kickoff. Or James for that matter. Even though he's 1 of the smartest minds covering the Premier League. And while my passion for the Premier League is stronger than ever. Now I just watch individuals like James Walcott, Buvey, etc. Thanks for making this video. Well done!👍👊
Man the internet is wild, I always thought that if I were to become anything on youtube i'd be having to delete a lot of group chats because jokes are jokes to some people but attack to others. The Andrew Tate joke i'm sure has been said a million times but within the context of Geordie it's cancel-worthy
Didn’t know the premier league was around in 1516 , was this the same season Shakespeare and Walter Raleigh made their debuts for Arsenal
The way Laurence spoke to people on the Kick Off was shocking at times. Like mate you can debate someone without having to patronise and condescend them and if you can't then maybe you're not as smart as you think. Don't watch the show anymore but do watch Hugh Wizzy on the daily.
Would love another football nostalgia video. As much as we all wear rose tinted glasses when it comes to football and fifa during our childhood, it really felt so much better then, down to the presentation on tv. The amount of world class strikers in the late 2000s/early 2010s was mad - Ibra, rvp, Rooney, drogba, torres, Villa, Suarez, tevez, muller, eto’o and so many more compared to now where there’s barely a handful of proper world class strikers outside of haaland
Noted!
The way he handled the leaked sex DMs was absolute genius. But...
... The Kick Off was horrific. I hated everyone on it. Egomaniacs who's viewpoint was ONLY filtered through the blinkered love of their team. Cackling little boys club. Honestly, it made me go back to watching ITV and BBC commentary - which is almost just as appalling.
Loving the new videos and the kick off died for me personally when Hugh wizzy left
Loved the vid about Thogden. Hopefully I love this vid
I hope you do too!
🤨
Been subscriber for years and I didn't know about your new format, it's great mate. Cheers from Mexico 🇲🇽
Just found your channel a few weeks ago, love your videos and I can’t believe your channel hasn’t blown up yet! Great topics, brilliant coverage of each topic, commentary and videos themselves are fantastic as well! You got a new fan in me all the way from Chicago!!
Thank you man, I think it’s blowing up now!
I;ve watched Geordie and think he'll bounce back no one gets permanently cancelled these days.
I'd like to see old style Geordie podcasts they just feel like interviews now imo where as before no matter what big names he had or celebrities if felt like a load of mates having good banter and talking about serious stuff as well and getting the different opinions of Geordie and Lawrence it worked really well and they bounced off each other very well.
My girlfriend is a Muslim and she found what Brian said to be funny, she didn’t care at all.
Although she doesn’t speak for all Muslims obviously.
I think there was a lot of 2nd hand offence taking place.
I’m annoyed that he backed down for the joke the joke was funny he just is a woos and he hates Tate can’t stand true he is just pathetic
That is fair to add, I believe many are more hurt by the original apology than the comment itself from my research
That's the thing with the world nowadays can't joke about anything they even trued cancelling some actor for saying merry Christmas
@@Vizeh It’s a difficult situation.
Would people make the same amount of fuss if he made the joke about Irish people due to IRA history?
Maybe.
We can have one of two worlds. One where people say offensive things, but people have enough mental toughness to disregard them as just words. Another where people struggle emotionally when they hear offensive things so offensive comments are not allowed.
Ultimately which one are we aiming for? We can only have one. So which of the options is better?
Maybe too philosophical for a Monday 😀.
Great Video by the way.
VIZEH you beauty
The new style of videos are very refreshing, keep it up mate quality
The monologue at the end was really heartfelt. Big up to Liam 👍
Thank you, I really am a big fan of Brian
Vizeh has really improved and gained, Can only be proud since I started watching at 80k. I'm loving it keep it up.
Maybe, we should stop putting people on pedestals. Just because they talk about things you like.
I find myself watching vizeh more and more now, love this new style of content 👊🏼
Glad you enjoy it!
Great vid again Liam, I've also been watching Brian for like 5-6 years and I definitely agree the content has got worse and less relatable. I actually quite liked True News- mocking the rest of the Internet and showing how weird it can be. I used to always watch the kick off as well. But I do agree his podcast was always his best work. I feel like he switched to prioritising the kick off as he saw an open lane to earn money in, and then made it more professional to appeal more to brands. Essentially meaning the downfall of his content would be prioritising money making. His apology vids really show this as well- they don't seem authentic and seem like he's trying to save his brand and his money rather than apologising to those he has hurt.
I really do hope his content does improve though because I still think the guy is a great and entertaining guy at heart, he just needs to fix up the direction of his content.
Great comment lad, we both hope after what happened recently he can focus on his podcasts more
Earned my subscription with this content recently, see if in the recommended usually do I finally subscribed
Means a lot lad! Thank you
Good video lad
I first watched his video talking to a bloke called Paul Hannaford, who was a huge drug addict and went through some crazy things. He then turned his life around and now educates kids in schools. I then started watching his other videos and thought that they were good. I hope he sorts out whatever problems he may have.
weird I had totally forgotten about True Geordie until this video appeared on my homepage.. I used to watch every podcast episode.
Mate your videos are brilliant. Really love the new style. Cant wait for your "The Darkside of Man City" video, as I am sure it will be great and will help us understand what the hell is going on.
All the best to and your family.
Keep it up!
@Abdullah Sinan... There isn't a dark side of City, its all sunlight and joy!!! 😁
this new content is absolutely quality mate, loving it
Appreciate the kind words lad❤️
I saw your post on twitter regarding getting blocked. So I was curious. I'm a fan of TG, and I'm from newcastle, so probably have a bit of a bias. But I insisted on watching every second of this, because I wanted to see if the blocking was justified and seemed like you were confused in your tweet.
I think the problem with this video (and it's a good video explaining everything that's happened) is exactly what the video is. You're highlighting everything that has happened, while TG tries to move forward, he doesn't need people focusing on what has happened, he is a human, and even to this day, is still littered with jokes and abuse because of the texts that got leaked. A leak that if he was a woman, would be seen as the victim because of the leak, but instead is piled on. That is why he turns off most of his comments - this wasn't touched on in the video, not really.
As for the video itself, you started it as saying that you were going to be impartial - the video then spiralled into you just sharing your opinion on everything - that is rather partial, as is my opinion, as is everyone's opinion and that's fine, but perhaps the problem is more so framing it as 'impartiality' when it's not.
So I think that's why you got blocked. You both insulted him and Laurence, even Rory for a laugh as well. It's all about framing and you framed it one way, while presenting it differently.
You accused TG of certain things near the end and so of course he was going to take that personally. It's not impartial. With that said, it was a good video, but I think if you were to put yourself on the receiving end of this video, and listen to how you're wording things and framing situations, events, opinions, you'll soon realise this video COULD just become hate bait for people to hate on TG, and he has been vocal in ensuring the negativity isn't a focus for him as that's when his depression truly suffers. He turned off the comments for the safety of his mental health and life and that is why he blocked you.
Long story short, you are indeed biased. You’ve basically wrote an essay on why TG is the victim. Comes across very narcissistic.
@@Devghost Vizeh tweeted confused why TG blocked him.
I explained from TGs point of view why.
I actually liked the video on a personal level, but the video was definitely entwined with personal opinions which he said he would avoid as a preface. 😊
Vizeh, love your documentary style videos! Keep up the good work!👊
Brilliant video jet again Liam! I watched the Kick Off a lot during lock down and I am a big fan of True Geordie but ever since the Tate comment I haven't seen a video since. Not because of him or the comment, but the vibe isn't there anymore, and the mains guys like Rory, McKola and Buvey are now doing their own thing now.
I hope Brian can prove people wrong, as I said I hope he focuses on his Podcasting more as I feel like that’s his best content
this new vibe with the content is great keep it up
I was a big fan. Basically up until the Muslim drama. Since then not watched at all, besides what made the kickoff great was never TG, it was always people like Lawrence, Buvey, Hugh Wizzy, Adam and Rory. The fact that The Club is also now a thing is probably the biggest reason for the decline in views.
I Like The New Style of Video More Than Old Fifa Ones Keep Getting Better Mate 👍
FIFA really does suck haha, thank you mate
Brian seems like a decent guy, but from a tough background where money, sex and cars were very tempting as they are usually the reserve of which people (bar sex ofc!), and it was immersive for him like a Geordie Wolf of Ball Street. "Loz" in my opinion suffers from narcissism, which he lets himself believe is his sense of humour. Since Georgie got Loz in maybe this was doomed to happen. I guess also society is increasingly sensitive and Geordie is very straight talking.
I have taken a break from the True Geordie Channel. I plan to go back when Newcastle make the CL and watch his reactions. It promises to be beautiful. True Geordie is your weird friend who keeps fuvking up but you don't want to see fail, so you give them another chance over and over again. And I'll forgive him as many times as it takes. I love True Geordie's rise, just like Newcastle's rise again. I want to see it continue. But I needed this video to process my emotions on the topic. Thanks, Vizeh.
😂😂 mame cl. dream land.
My opinion before watching the video. True Geordie is one of the hardest working content creators out there. I believe his podcasting ability is second to none in the uk. I think his old friends backstabbed him after the controversy. I also believe that he didn’t deserve to be cancelled after one bad joke. He hasn’t scammed anyone. He hasn’t committed any crimes. He just made a bad joke and lost everything. Meanwhile other RUclipsrs commit far worse and get a slap on the wrist
Love your new documentary style videos.
Means a lot mate!
as someone who has watched ur content since the fifa 17 days i think you are the most improved youtubers I have ever seen keep it up lad
I unsubscribed when he started turning up to the kick off in fur coats and shades. Not exactly one of the lads.
As my man Denzel Said "At your highest moment, be careful, that's when the devil comes for you.”
I can 100% say I can’t/couldn’t stand Laurence and it’s drove me away from watching the kick off and any content he was involved in, that as a byproduct had me have very little sympathy for TG when he managed to essentially cancel himself a few months ago! You summarise Laurence perfectly here in how he just became more and more unbearable as he felt his own head swell and got ‘bigger’
he should stick to podcasts, that's his area, his strength. i hope he comes back. his Khabib vs Connor watchalong was amazing. so was Europa league final when Sarri beat Unai emery, probably the most entertaining editions
Viz you're worrying me mate your content is getting scarily good
I swear it’s not THE true geordie
Absolutely is!
Fantastic video Liam. In regards to the KickOff, not only did it seem like the panel (of Geordie, Lawrence, Buvey, Adam and Rory) was just spouting out outrageous tales and not “knowing ball” whatsoever, but also I personally found the vibe/dynamics weird and the panel itself not particularly likeable
It did feel like they lost their way in terms of the original purpose of the kick off, I hope he has a good chance to reset now
22:38 "Disgusting"
Bit of an exaggeration don't you think?
Massive fan of the Documentaries, I must admit I was getting bored of the FIFA content and the Gaming stuff as its not my thing, but I stayed long enough to watch these bangers, big us Viz love it, keep it up bro ❤👍
Love ya man❤️
Rory, Adam and Buvey snaked Brian.. Never like them anyways Irish Guy is better than Rory
I had been wondering what happened to him but didn’t bother to ask Google, thanks for the video. He’ll rise again, all people struggle, and mistakes are NOT death nor a death sentence.
Very true mate!
In terms of True Geordie, you live by the sword and you die by the sword.
He engaged in cancel culture and lo and behold, he got swallowed by it. Unfortunately the people he had around him were there for opportunities and not for him personally.
Oh well.
That’s fair enough lad
Love these new style of vids viz , keep it up mate!!
Great work work. God bless you
It's kinda sad as someone who's watched him since 2015 right after Pardee left for palace
Really good, interesting videos you’ve been doing lately mate, good on you
The KickOff is now purely Newcastle content, which has 2 issues
1- Lack of relevancy for the big clubs and their fans
2- A lot of people are not happy with the Newcastle takeover, treating it like Man City content
These videos are really well done mate, nice one 👏
I used to watch Brian, this was before the podcast and I basically stopped when all the channel became was podcasts and live streams (and true news just feeling like a podcast); wasn't the same any longer. Never really heard about these incidents, but if I were to guess he lost himself. He became popular and didn't know what to do so he just lost himself... idk if he is trying to refind himself but I'm not sure I'll be going back, especially knowing the stuff mentioned. (Even if it isn't all brians fault.)
As a sidenote - your recent content has really become one of the best out there, keep it up!
Brilliant video👍 really well put together
I like the Dave - Three Rivers piano sample in here it really suits the video
Dave is the GOAT lad!
This new content is fantastic, keep up the good work
Respect to you for covering this
Love these style of videos. Unreal quality
Glad you like them!
Great video mate, heard a few things i didn't know about TrueGeordie
I use to watch him loads years ago, but podcasts aren’t so much my thing so I ended up distancing myself from the channel. I also began to notice the transformation of character that I couldn’t stand. I think you should have mention some of the hypocritical moments he has has over the past couple of years. I recall the controversy about the islamaphobic remarks Geordie made and the damage control he had to endure because of that cancellation, but I remember him bringing down BradDoesBanter when said his controversial joke. Keep up with the good work.
