Damn, this puts a whole new light on QTCinderella's "Easter Basket" accident. I am so sorry that she had to go through that... And that she had to deal with so much hate on top of violations by the Police.
It also shows how quickly the internet jumps to hate on qt. I remember that thread, just a bunch of over invested fan boys making up this scenario in their head and getting mad on behalf of Ludwig.
@@JordanMarchetto Why wouldn't she just say they got swatted tho? Such a dumb decision to not mention it, that would have quelled much of the hate for ending the stream
@@mikki6158 She literally said in the beginning of the segment but it’s because she doesn’t want to bring attention to it because then the swatters ‘win’. The only reason she’s talking about it now is because Ludwig talked about it and they had a whole segment on the Yard.
Hearing QT's story about how Swatting has effected her is heartbreaking. It sucks that this happens and that there isn't a system to prevent this and catch the people who do this. Hopefully one day QT will be able to enjoy life without the stress and issues brought on by these incidents.
It's honestly sad in general that the police force is more of a hindrance to innocent civilians than they are help. The police are meant to protect and serve civilians from actual threats, not give perfectly innocent people like QT severe PTSD and fear of the police.

Many people who do this do eventually get caught. People who knowingly falsely report a crime to emergency services are committing a crime and they can spend many years in prison for it, and/or pay huge fines. When this person is caught they will have to additionally pay for any damages that resulted from the swatting, in this case for the floor that apparently one of the men fell through and any medical bills associated. Often people who do this swat many other people and do other types of cyber crimes, so the charges stack.
The yard boys downplayed the swatting situation really well to keep up the jokey mood of their podcast. But QT's version needed to be heard to understand the trauma and depth of the situation, let alone 4 times. Even though, I have never had anything to do with the cops, I get scared when I see a cop car near my house. I have no idea how one endures such trauma, but I just hope that anyone who goes through such situations, can just get peace someway, maybe by hugging your pets!
The way QT described being swatted made my heart drop to the floor. I cannot imagine how stressful, painful, and terrifying that would be to have happen - not just once but 4 times now (though the last she was blissfully not there for)
hearing that you had to pretend you were hiding an easter basket on the night you were swatted was just… heartbreaking. i’m so sorry for what you had to go through. I hope talking about it can at the very least be liberating now that those clips are recontextualized for everyone. people need to realize there’s more than what goes on on stream.
The swatting section was very heavy. Can't imagine having to go through that once let alone 4 times. Must've been very hard to talk about I'm sorry Qt :(
I don't understand why cops keep responding in full force raid mode when they're dealing with repeat swatting victims. At some point it's legitimately nothing more than power tripping thumbs trying to justify their ridiculous budgets. Disgusting.
Great episode. Sucks that Lud and everyone who lives with him has to deal with the swatting so much. I can't imagine. Sucks that Maya has gotten so many death threats that she has to get a gun. This world is messed up. On a brighter note - can't wait for Shit Camp!
@@CuriousPug12 Yeah exactly, allowing guns in the first place is the reason why this still is a problem and why smuggling guns still is so easy. Also, fix your stupid imperial system and switch to the only acceptable metric system. I'm tired of your dumb way to meassure stuff. Annoyingly difficult and unnecessary difficult. Fix the meassure system first then guns, the way you meassure stuff is way worse to me.
As someone w panic disorder I can’t imagine how messed up it must be for QT. I once experienced this earth quake that shook me out my bed and for a solid 6 months I kept feeling like an earthquakes happening when it wasn’t! Each time my heart would drop and i would feel dizzy like I’m about to pass out over NOTHING! Trauma is real and it messes things up…
Dude... QT's versions of getting swatted are so insane, it seems like a movie... Lud and the Yard mentioned it in a casual way, so I didnt realise the severity of the incidents... like for the subathon story, them asking QT to lift her shirt up... wtf??? Hope QT'd mental and trauma from this can heal someday, its just awful to see such a confident, charismatic, happy and funny person crying coz of trolls and the incompetence of the police...
@@yovods there are many many many ways of doing this that do not involve this magnitude of intensity. They can absolutely “just call them” so *they* can get a better handle on the situation and proceed appropriately. It would be better *for their job* to properly inform themselves of the situation especially given these people are literally live-streaming, which should be any cops dream. There could be female officers to work with women instead of publicly humiliating a woman, or putting guns to peoples heads, or apparently not understanding that 1/5th of the population has dyslexia so maybe they should figure out some better commands.
@@yovods if the defence is: we know it's wrong but we still do it because policy. Then you are so not qualified. Police officers should adapt, be able to read the situation, de-escalate and that means when someone at the door says he is a steamer you make sure his stream is off before entering the room because you don't want to farm this. Tadaaa
Swatting sounds soooo terrible, I can’t imagine the stress and memories you have to live with. As much as I hope it never happens again to you or any other streamer, I know it probably will. For those future times, if either of the cats gets out I cannot stress enough searching on RUclips for a video that cats respond to. I have a video saved to my phone titled “Playing This Sound is Supposed to Make Your Cat Come to You.” My cats have gotten out many times and every time I play this sound and they will literally come out of the bushes. I didn’t see them, I didn’t hear them. But they hear that sound and they come find me. I highly suggest using it, I hope it helps!
X will always keep up his outer facade for stream and stuff but I think he's going through some shit with his family (and maybe sammy) behind the scenes rn, so it's understandable that he'd be reluctant to commit to an event where he'd have to be super social and provide content in the middle of that. He should've probably told QT directly, true, but he was probably just scared to hurt her feelings since he knows she puts a lot of work into shit camp.
@@meloniusthonk3836 Okay, but that doesn't justify not being an adult. If you can't do something you've already said yes to, yes, it may hurt their feelings, but let them know that you can't. QT is one of the most understanding people on twitch at that, if he would have told her, that would have been so relieving for her to know she's not dealing with someone who can't be an adult.
@@meloniusthonk3836 ??? hurt her feelings and then mess her whole shitcamp up because he decides to ghost during the event ?? idk whats going with x and i really hope he sort everything out, but ghosting is no excuse.
As soon as I saw on Ludwig's stream that you guys had been swatted I immediately thought about QT and I didn't even know all of these crazy details. I'm so sorry you guys have been through so much trauma, I hope the asshole who did it gets caught soon and that the police implement better measures to deal with these situations. There are so many streamers in L.A, they should really be trained for that at this point.
I’m enjoying how these podcasts are evolving. I would love the interactions of guests but honestly the way that these two can talk about anything, get off track, and circle back to close all open discussions is immersing. Plus it’s always crazy to hear about how deep things go from a different point of view. Keep up the great work. And maybe get some of the Terro liquid ant traps…sponsor even?
I LOVE QTCINDERELLA PRODUCED EVENTS!!! Can't wait for shit camp even though it's less than an hour away - I love seeing how folks riff off of each other and what new characters and memes are coming out of this year's. I'm mostly looking forward to Will's boat race and the cool little details that QT is adding to the event and hasn't leaked on stream yet. I think this has also been my fave wine about it ep so far!! it gets better and better as yall go tbf
I'm really glad they have this podcast, its been my favorite recently and I hope they keep it going. Genuinely seeing how much effort QT put into Shitcamp is the only reason why i'm even going to tune in, i don't really watch streamer events otherwise but I feel like she deserves the recognition. This girl has gone trough hell in her life with so much stuff and its insane how so many clowns in twitch chat give her crap and then act like its a normal thing that normal people do :(((
Your feelings and trauma from the Swattings are valid, QT. PTSD is SO scary to experience bc of how much you feel out of control of your own body and mind. You have some really great friends to lean on, don't be afraid to ask for help in those scary moments. Take care 💜
The way the american police acts is insane to me. Nothing justifies the way they treated you. Wishing you tons of luck for the future and all the strength you need to deal with this shit.
if you insist everyone should be able to carry a lethal weapon, your police are going to be pretty high strung. i don't think much will change any time soon.
American police are more often than not fucking deranged power-tripping scumbags. They need very little training, have all sorts of legal immunity, and are backed both by strong police unions and a brainwashed population.
American police (and conservatives in general) are taught in the training that everyone is their adversary. The system churns out highly strung out people thinking the world owes them something and that everyone is their enemy, and gives them a gun
@@jimmypownall4409 Protect and serve means protect and serve the public, not protect yourself and serve the public. If your first thought in every situation is "how am I in danger and how can I protect MYSELF" you should not be allowed to be on the police force. Firemen/women go into burning fucking buildings to save other people in complete disregard to their safety, police should be doing the same. If you dont like it, dont join the force. The public should NEVER be in danger as a result of how the police acted in response to something. Never. No exceptions, no excuses.
53:00 with how much death anxiety i have, i literally cannot imagine and hope i never have to experience what you've been through with the swatting. i'm so sorry you've had to go through this shit multiple times QT 😢 heard from comments that whoever made the previous calls got 20+ years, here's hoping the recent one gets the same.
also the disregard and general disrespect from the police during situations like this is mind blowing, they literally have procedures in place for swatting don't they??? the fact that this can happen twice to a person/group of people, let alone four fucking times, should be embarrassing as hell.
i think the biggest move to prevent more swatting (and by this, i mean what the police/law makers should do) would be to have actual laws in place (if there aren't already) for swatting specifically and to publicly humiliate these people like we do other criminals. if you're willing to call a team of armed people on a citizen for fun, you deserve public humiliation imo. i believe they think they can get away with a prank call to police and "ruining someone's day" with little to no consequences, and that's why it keeps happening. maybe if they know beforehand that they're more than likely gonna go away for 20+ years for this shit, more people will hesitate.
thank you for sharing your experience with swatting. I'm diagnosed with ptsd and listening to you speak of how you were treated hit something for me and got me sobbing. I knew swatting was traumatic but didn't really understand the extent so I really appreciate you sharing
@@carrieullrich5059 thanks for the advice! I've recently told my family and I'm trying to be more open/less apologetic about it. I was diagnosed 7 years ago, its a long journey but I'm doing much better. I hope you're doing well ❤❤
What a sick world. I'm so glad you, your friends, and pets are safe. This was such an eye-opening story, and thank you for sharing. Love love love you all.
Oh my god, I’ve been enjoying QTCinderella and Maya on other people’s streams and this is the first time I found they had a podcast. It was hilarious and I IMMEDIATELY subscribed! ❤️👏🏽
Great episode. Glad to see the new format really starting to feel natural now, especially with the new mics! Sad to hear the trauma, and I hope the situation somehow gets better. Looking forward to Shit Camp starting in like 30 minutes!
It's not a Wine About It podcast unless Maya mentions how she doesn't even like wine lol. I hope she says it every stream 'cause it's a little funny. Anyway, great episode as always! but oh my gosh, those swattings sound so scary. I really, really pray that they won't happen again, or that at least the police will actually call you guys first. I'm really, really scared for you guys and I can't even begin to imagine how you must feel. Please stay strong, and don't forget to remind yourself that you're actually a pretty amazing person!
I had very trauamatizing situations happening and one of them was a mass shooting so i relate to QT alot so I am so sorry she has to go through that because she is such a sweetheart and wish the best for not only QT but for the rest of the house hold
This swatting shit is so fucking insane, and what's the most unfair thing is that the people who initiate these get away?? EDIT: just got to the part where she says the first 3 swatting incidents' perp got 20+ years in jail. Now thats the most poggers shit ive heard today, that genuinely makes me so happy. QT DM me his details so I can go to the prison and tell the guards i saw him hide a phone up his ass
Ahhh hey man, thats a little much. We dont need to be doing shit like that. I dont think QT or Ludwig would want this. i agree with everything else you said, but we dont need to be getting peoples "butts checked", to put it in the lightest of terms, thats gross dude.
@@jeebe393 I have no clue who those people are but if you see someone bragging about swatting someone, screenshot it. Save this kind of stuff as proof. The victims and law enforcement will need proof to convict these criminals. Making false reports to emergency services is a crime.
@@aardfay The person who actually got swatted had the proof of them saying it, good thing they were dumb enough to have their facecams on and say it in a call.
Hearing QTs experience with swatting has me crying at work. I'm not a streamer and I've never had to worry about that, but when I was a kid I lived in a place where something similar happened. It's terrifying. As a 9 year old I really thought I was going to see a cop shoot my dog in front of me. They threatened to shoot her in front of me because she was barking. Thankfully that didn't happen, but the whole thing is awful regardless.
Thank God the audio is finally good. Love the pod but I've had to dip out a few times cause of the audio. I out this up next to the yard, both amazing pods
I don’t tend to get emotional over stuff but hearing you talk about your trauma really fucked me up shit I hope you feel better you too are awesome Just got to hearing that the last caller got 20 years thats good he reserved it
Very sorry to hear about the swatting incidents.. it's horrible. I can't fully imagine but I can empathise with your pain and I hope things get better. Also sorry about what happened to you as a child, the same thing happened to me unfortunately.. some people are evil and that's just an unfortunate fact.
Love the kindness y'all put into the world, hope no matter how things work out technically you get to enjoy being with the people you surround yourself with
QT your experiences, as painful as they are to talk openly about, are important for people to hear. People need to know the extent of this issue. I’m sorry this has happened.
I’m really looking forward to shitcamp! Wine about it is also really great because of how honest both of you are about all of the topics you cover. I’m hoping you both have fun at shitcamp and have fun stories to tell on next week’s episode!
Great episode, the kind of vulnerability QT showed when talking about swatting is not something viewers see, very powerful stuff, and I appreciate her sharing it. Hyped AF for ShitCamp. First i'd heard of it was the Ostonox video and am looking forward to seeing this one as its live.
If you have never had a laser trained on you, there will simply never be understanding as to how that feels. I immediately felt the fear, and did again while thinking about it just now. I've been at gunpoint multiple times, but there is a finality and terror to the laser that isn't even remotely like the other feeling, and that's pretty bad as well. I am so sorry that you are subjected to that kind of terror, even on a semi-rare basis. No one should be in that position. And to anyone that has been in that position alongside us, we are here for you, I'm sorry that this happened to you, and I feel the same anger for you that I feel in my own situation.
After hearing the swatting story so much started to make sense because QT does always stop for every sound and light on her streams. That shit is heart breaking.
I can’t believe swatting is a thing. Being from a country with little to no streamers it’s surreal to imagine something like that happens. It just blows my mind how people have no limits on what pranks they do. Making someone lose time/effort is mean and a bad type of joke/prank. But putting someone’s life at risk is crazy. How would you be able to sleep at night knowing that your prank killed a person?
it goes further than that sometimes since they actually want their victim to die. that is the end goal of a lot of people like that, they have forums and servers dedicated to launching and celebrating attacks like swatting or doxxing, in their minds their targets are not people with a right to life and in a lot of cases they might not even view them as human
I'll be real.. QT said it's fine that X isn't going. She is right it is fine. But to not send you a message, warn you that he's on the fence, literally anything, is fucked up. Dude gets away with so much because of his viewership. I've had friends before that I've cut out of my life because they just fail to respect my time and the same needs to be done here. Stop inviting the dude to shit, he doesn't respect anyone's time. And In this case it's more than time. He should of said on stream "I can't make it.. but check out the event it's gonna be a blast" Not it's gonna be lame cause Soda isn't going.
@@ulysses9595 Even if they aren't friends and they are "work colleagues" there's a level of respect and etiquette that comes with that stuff man. That's how the real world works and what separates respectful people.
I never really thought about streamers getting swatted and you just completely changed the way i look at swattings. I always thought they are annoying and that's it from the clips i've seen and i never really thought about the f'd up sh*t that goes on behind the scenes and i'm very sorry to hear what happend to you QT. The people who are responsible for that kind of stuff will get what they deserve and i hope it will scare off everyone who ever thought about doing it. They will eventually get caught. Much love and keep doing what you do
So excited for shitcamp! Watching from New Zealand so dunno how much I can watch live, but will def try to catch any streams if the time isn’t too ridiculous
Great episode as always! It’s nice having these weekly uploads to look forward to. Hearing about the swatting incidents actually made me tear up. Appreciate you QT for being vulnerable and real about these awful situations, I can’t imagine how hard it is to talk about. It’s something so many people (myself including) don’t realize how traumatizing it can be. My heart goes out to you and everyone who was in the house and I hope a solution can be found. On a lighter note: waking up to see prezoh’s naked ass on my timeline was probably one of the funniest mornings I’ve had in a while, truly iconic
I live in Australia and have a list of Shit Camp streams that are poifect for my timezone. Can't wait to watch the vods of all of the others :) Have funs x
How the hell are these comments not talking about the swatting situation more? I can't imagine having to be put into that situation, and it's absolutely fucked up on so many levels.
yea I can't imagine it, it's not just the shock effect of it that's bad is also that you can very easily be fucking killed in a swatting because of how insane American police are just in normal circumstances let alone in a swatting situation
If you pay attention to the greater QT-Ludverse it's been talked about quite a lot at this point. The Yard did almost a full episode on it, Lud did a Mogul Money on it, it's kinda a known event at this point
@@98loud I watched the mogul mail video, and maybe the yard episode was more serious, but it's insane that Lud hasn't pulled the trigger on a studio or similar (even if it's expensive). The difference between the way QT expressed the impact it has had on her, versus Lud saying "wow, you wasted a couple hours of my life, oh no, what will I ever do?!" in the mogul mail video. I'd be livid if something that traumatic was minimized like that.
really excited for shit camp!!!! waiting for it rn. can't wait for the archery stream, seems fun. hope whoever been making the calls get arrested. +congrats on the new mics! think the audio definitely sounded smoother🏕💖
Great episode... I actually like this format. As someone who does not watch twitch and watches some streamers only on youtube, i think the absence of twitch chat for you to read makes it better.
I've always suffered from night blindness, its not what Maya was saying, it has nothing to do with seeing in the dark but even things you should be able to see are significantly harder to see!!
Another great episode, QT and Maya! I've never been a podcast listener before, but yours is the third one I do listen to out of only three. :) I really enjoy the stories, and your jokes.
It was so cute how QT and Maya talked about Hasan lol. And not to be too parasocial here, but Hasan talks a lot about how he views streaming, so having fun and collaborating with people is a really big thing in what his goals with streaming are. So you dont really have to feel too bad about it probably :)

Also, fix your stupid imperial system and switch to the only acceptable metric system. I'm tired of your dumb way to meassure stuff. Annoyingly difficult and unnecessary difficult. Fix the meassure system first then guns, the way you meassure stuff is way worse to me.
@@CeRz You’re definitely a child grow up💀 I would hate to be a hateful, mad mfer like you that type of life must suck
As someone w panic disorder I can’t imagine how messed up it must be for QT. I once experienced this earth quake that shook me out my bed and for a solid 6 months I kept feeling like an earthquakes happening when it wasn’t! Each time my heart would drop and i would feel dizzy like I’m about to pass out over NOTHING! Trauma is real and it messes things up…
Night blindness is when someone's vision is worse at night. Alot of people's eyes adjust to see in the dark but some people find it difficult
Dude... QT's versions of getting swatted are so insane, it seems like a movie... Lud and the Yard mentioned it in a casual way, so I didnt realise the severity of the incidents... like for the subathon story, them asking QT to lift her shirt up... wtf??? Hope QT'd mental and trauma from this can heal someday, its just awful to see such a confident, charismatic, happy and funny person crying coz of trolls and the incompetence of the police...
@@yovods mmm delicious pig boot so yummy
@@yovods there are many many many ways of doing this that do not involve this magnitude of intensity. They can absolutely “just call them” so *they* can get a better handle on the situation and proceed appropriately. It would be better *for their job* to properly inform themselves of the situation especially given these people are literally live-streaming, which should be any cops dream. There could be female officers to work with women instead of publicly humiliating a woman, or putting guns to peoples heads, or apparently not understanding that 1/5th of the population has dyslexia so maybe they should figure out some better commands.
@@yovods just bc they werent in the wrong doesnt mean QT cant have mental battles because of it. i know you didnt say that. but still
@@yovods if the defence is: we know it's wrong but we still do it because policy. Then you are so not qualified. Police officers should adapt, be able to read the situation, de-escalate and that means when someone at the door says he is a steamer you make sure his stream is off before entering the room because you don't want to farm this. Tadaaa
@@yovods pig defender
The swatting story made me cry, that sounds so traumatizing.
Swatting sounds soooo terrible, I can’t imagine the stress and memories you have to live with. As much as I hope it never happens again to you or any other streamer, I know it probably will. For those future times, if either of the cats gets out I cannot stress enough searching on RUclips for a video that cats respond to. I have a video saved to my phone titled “Playing This Sound is Supposed to Make Your Cat Come to You.” My cats have gotten out many times and every time I play this sound and they will literally come out of the bushes. I didn’t see them, I didn’t hear them. But they hear that sound and they come find me. I highly suggest using it, I hope it helps!
Yeah, it's pretty much attempted murder in America because of how trigger happy police are.
Testing that it works before an emergency situation would be wise as well (for anyone that decides to use this, not just QT)
If my cat is outside I can walk out on my porch and start making meowing sounds and he comes back to the house.
I legitimately thought the Prezoh thing was some elaborate skit he was doing when I first saw it on Twitter he's incredible.
Idk why Xqc didn’t tell QT personally first, just send a quick message and then tell stream, it’s not that hard
X will always keep up his outer facade for stream and stuff but I think he's going through some shit with his family (and maybe sammy) behind the scenes rn, so it's understandable that he'd be reluctant to commit to an event where he'd have to be super social and provide content in the middle of that. He should've probably told QT directly, true, but he was probably just scared to hurt her feelings since he knows she puts a lot of work into shit camp.
ik why: it's bc he's a pretty shitty human being
he's always been super toxic and his community is rancid
@@meloniusthonk3836 Okay, but that doesn't justify not being an adult. If you can't do something you've already said yes to, yes, it may hurt their feelings, but let them know that you can't. QT is one of the most understanding people on twitch at that, if he would have told her, that would have been so relieving for her to know she's not dealing with someone who can't be an adult.
streamer brain
@@meloniusthonk3836 ??? hurt her feelings and then mess her whole shitcamp up because he decides to ghost during the event ?? idk whats going with x and i really hope he sort everything out, but ghosting is no excuse.
As soon as I saw on Ludwig's stream that you guys had been swatted I immediately thought about QT and I didn't even know all of these crazy details. I'm so sorry you guys have been through so much trauma, I hope the asshole who did it gets caught soon and that the police implement better measures to deal with these situations. There are so many streamers in L.A, they should really be trained for that at this point.
Same , Qt with her level of anxiety in a high stress situation like that must be awful
that’s such a scary situation. i’m so glad everyone was okay in all of those incidents. mental health is no joke. love you guys
I’m not a big crier of sad stories, most of the time I just feel bad but no tears, but hearing the swatting story had me in tears. It’s terrible
I’m enjoying how these podcasts are evolving. I would love the interactions of guests but honestly the way that these two can talk about anything, get off track, and circle back to close all open discussions is immersing. Plus it’s always crazy to hear about how deep things go from a different point of view. Keep up the great work. And maybe get some of the Terro liquid ant traps…sponsor even?
I LOVE QTCINDERELLA PRODUCED EVENTS!!!
Can't wait for shit camp even though it's less than an hour away - I love seeing how folks riff off of each other and what new characters and memes are coming out of this year's.
I'm mostly looking forward to Will's boat race and the cool little details that QT is adding to the event and hasn't leaked on stream yet.
I think this has also been my fave wine about it ep so far!! it gets better and better as yall go tbf
The swatting story makes my heart break. Being in that situations is for sure terrifying.
Damn i cannot imagine how horrible it is to be swatted. I mean I nearly started crying just listening to QT talking about her.
Please never stop doing great events, you are literally one of the only people who actually puts effort into streams.
The episode’s title: We Were Swatted
The first 20 seconds: 𝒮𝓅𝒶𝑔𝒽𝑒𝓉𝓉𝒾 🍝
🍝🌟
absolutely love this podcast! literally the best
I'm really glad they have this podcast, its been my favorite recently and I hope they keep it going.
Genuinely seeing how much effort QT put into Shitcamp is the only reason why i'm even going to tune in, i don't really watch streamer events otherwise but I feel like she deserves the recognition. This girl has gone trough hell in her life with so much stuff and its insane how so many clowns in twitch chat give her crap and then act like its a normal thing that normal people do :(((
I want to give QT a hug, I cannot imagine how traumatized she is over everything.
I got anxious listening to this :(
I thoroughly enjoy the new format for the podcast. I could rarely catch the streams before.
I totally agree. And I think that it is a nice to not have chat for some conversations.
i love it bc it’s so convenient now
Love the new mics, honestly makes a big difference
Your feelings and trauma from the Swattings are valid, QT. PTSD is SO scary to experience bc of how much you feel out of control of your own body and mind. You have some really great friends to lean on, don't be afraid to ask for help in those scary moments. Take care 💜
The way the american police acts is insane to me. Nothing justifies the way they treated you. Wishing you tons of luck for the future and all the strength you need to deal with this shit.
i dont think its the policies fault, you should watch Ludwig's take on it on the Yard, He explains it really well.
if you insist everyone should be able to carry a lethal weapon, your police are going to be pretty high strung. i don't think much will change any time soon.
American police are more often than not fucking deranged power-tripping scumbags. They need very little training, have all sorts of legal immunity, and are backed both by strong police unions and a brainwashed population.
American police (and conservatives in general) are taught in the training that everyone is their adversary. The system churns out highly strung out people thinking the world owes them something and that everyone is their enemy, and gives them a gun
@@jimmypownall4409 Protect and serve means protect and serve the public, not protect yourself and serve the public. If your first thought in every situation is "how am I in danger and how can I protect MYSELF" you should not be allowed to be on the police force. Firemen/women go into burning fucking buildings to save other people in complete disregard to their safety, police should be doing the same. If you dont like it, dont join the force. The public should NEVER be in danger as a result of how the police acted in response to something. Never. No exceptions, no excuses.
53:00 with how much death anxiety i have, i literally cannot imagine and hope i never have to experience what you've been through with the swatting. i'm so sorry you've had to go through this shit multiple times QT 😢 heard from comments that whoever made the previous calls got 20+ years, here's hoping the recent one gets the same.
also the disregard and general disrespect from the police during situations like this is mind blowing, they literally have procedures in place for swatting don't they??? the fact that this can happen twice to a person/group of people, let alone four fucking times, should be embarrassing as hell.
i think the biggest move to prevent more swatting (and by this, i mean what the police/law makers should do) would be to have actual laws in place (if there aren't already) for swatting specifically and to publicly humiliate these people like we do other criminals. if you're willing to call a team of armed people on a citizen for fun, you deserve public humiliation imo. i believe they think they can get away with a prank call to police and "ruining someone's day" with little to no consequences, and that's why it keeps happening. maybe if they know beforehand that they're more than likely gonna go away for 20+ years for this shit, more people will hesitate.
Maya talking about being careful on the blob and then hurts herself on the blob is so funny to me. She flew so high
thank you for sharing your experience with swatting. I'm diagnosed with ptsd and listening to you speak of how you were treated hit something for me and got me sobbing. I knew swatting was traumatic but didn't really understand the extent so I really appreciate you sharing
Talk about what caused your PTSD to everyone you're comfortable talking to...
It greatly helped me recover from my minor PTSD. ❤
@@carrieullrich5059 thanks for the advice! I've recently told my family and I'm trying to be more open/less apologetic about it. I was diagnosed 7 years ago, its a long journey but I'm doing much better. I hope you're doing well ❤❤
3:43 lightning stroke was my nickname in highschool 🤙
What a sick world. I'm so glad you, your friends, and pets are safe. This was such an eye-opening story, and thank you for sharing. Love love love you all.
The editor for this episode is 🔥🔥🔥 the Prezo part with the actual chat logs was great
Oh my god, I’ve been enjoying QTCinderella and Maya on other people’s streams and this is the first time I found they had a podcast. It was hilarious and I IMMEDIATELY subscribed! ❤️👏🏽
Great episode. Glad to see the new format really starting to feel natural now, especially with the new mics! Sad to hear the trauma, and I hope the situation somehow gets better. Looking forward to Shit Camp starting in like 30 minutes!
It's not a Wine About It podcast unless Maya mentions how she doesn't even like wine lol. I hope she says it every stream 'cause it's a little funny.
Anyway, great episode as always! but oh my gosh, those swattings sound so scary. I really, really pray that they won't happen again, or that at least the police will actually call you guys first. I'm really, really scared for you guys and I can't even begin to imagine how you must feel. Please stay strong, and don't forget to remind yourself that you're actually a pretty amazing person!
I had very trauamatizing situations happening and one of them was a mass shooting so i relate to QT alot so I am so sorry she has to go through that because she is such a sweetheart and wish the best for not only QT but for the rest of the house hold
This swatting shit is so fucking insane, and what's the most unfair thing is that the people who initiate these get away??
EDIT: just got to the part where she says the first 3 swatting incidents' perp got 20+ years in jail. Now thats the most poggers shit ive heard today, that genuinely makes me so happy. QT DM me his details so I can go to the prison and tell the guards i saw him hide a phone up his ass
Ahhh hey man, thats a little much. We dont need to be doing shit like that. I dont think QT or Ludwig would want this.
i agree with everything else you said, but we dont need to be getting peoples "butts checked", to put it in the lightest of terms, thats gross dude.
LMAOO
This is the stuff MaximilianMus type fans do. They did it to Weest and were hoping he got killed in the swatting. Edgelords are just another breed.
@@jeebe393 I have no clue who those people are but if you see someone bragging about swatting someone, screenshot it. Save this kind of stuff as proof. The victims and law enforcement will need proof to convict these criminals. Making false reports to emergency services is a crime.
@@aardfay The person who actually got swatted had the proof of them saying it, good thing they were dumb enough to have their facecams on and say it in a call.
Hearing QTs experience with swatting has me crying at work. I'm not a streamer and I've never had to worry about that, but when I was a kid I lived in a place where something similar happened. It's terrifying. As a 9 year old I really thought I was going to see a cop shoot my dog in front of me. They threatened to shoot her in front of me because she was barking. Thankfully that didn't happen, but the whole thing is awful regardless.
Didnt know night blindness was a thing, i thought it just took time for your eyes to adjust to the darkness
I smoke weed for my night blindness lmfao
It does. Some people just adjust to it worse.
Which I'm guessing what night blindness is
Maya is being weird abt it for some reason but all night blindness is, is having worse vision in dim light than most people have in dim light.
@@psychd5374 I think it is because she thinks qt means pitch black darkness but qt really means dim light / night driving
Thank God the audio is finally good. Love the pod but I've had to dip out a few times cause of the audio. I out this up next to the yard, both amazing pods
I don’t tend to get emotional over stuff but hearing you talk about your trauma really fucked me up shit I hope you feel better you too are awesome
Just got to hearing that the last caller got 20 years thats good he reserved it
Awesome episode, the mic upgrade is great.
“I’d be like, ‘You’re hip!’“ LOL. Stop, QT! That one got me _gooood._ 😂
This was an amazing episode. Sending love to you Qt
QT you're an absolute gem, I hope you can recover and heal from the trauma of the swattings. much love
ya'll never cease to amaze me with these episodes. keep up the amazing work!
as someone who's primarily an audio listener, i appreciate the upgrade.
Very sorry to hear about the swatting incidents.. it's horrible. I can't fully imagine but I can empathise with your pain and I hope things get better. Also sorry about what happened to you as a child, the same thing happened to me unfortunately.. some people are evil and that's just an unfortunate fact.
Sound quality-10/10, great episode!
Sorry for all the bad stuff, genuinely hard to hear your experience. Stay strong! Great pod as always! ❤
Love the kindness y'all put into the world, hope no matter how things work out technically you get to enjoy being with the people you surround yourself with
QT your experiences, as painful as they are to talk openly about, are important for people to hear. People need to know the extent of this issue. I’m sorry this has happened.
This is probably my favorite episode of wine about it, the vibes are immaculate
I love you guys. You make me smile when I am sad and I appreciate it a lot. How about Slime as a guest?
I’m really looking forward to shitcamp! Wine about it is also really great because of how honest both of you are about all of the topics you cover. I’m hoping you both have fun at shitcamp and have fun stories to tell on next week’s episode!
Great episode, the kind of vulnerability QT showed when talking about swatting is not something viewers see, very powerful stuff, and I appreciate her sharing it.
Hyped AF for ShitCamp. First i'd heard of it was the Ostonox video and am looking forward to seeing this one as its live.
That vibrator car seat story at 39:37 is WILD- I was cringing into myself, I had to pause lmaoo
Bro it feels like stand up bit i CAN'T BELIEVE that actually happened to herrr
new mics sound great! :)
If you have never had a laser trained on you, there will simply never be understanding as to how that feels. I immediately felt the fear, and did again while thinking about it just now. I've been at gunpoint multiple times, but there is a finality and terror to the laser that isn't even remotely like the other feeling, and that's pretty bad as well.
I am so sorry that you are subjected to that kind of terror, even on a semi-rare basis. No one should be in that position. And to anyone that has been in that position alongside us, we are here for you, I'm sorry that this happened to you, and I feel the same anger for you that I feel in my own situation.
Appreciate this podcast so much. Going through some rough times and wine about it is an hour and a half of relief every week.
Look forward to these episodes all of the time. Loving the new format!
After hearing the swatting story so much started to make sense because QT does always stop for every sound and light on her streams. That shit is heart breaking.
I can’t believe swatting is a thing. Being from a country with little to no streamers it’s surreal to imagine something like that happens.
It just blows my mind how people have no limits on what pranks they do. Making someone lose time/effort is mean and a bad type of joke/prank. But putting someone’s life at risk is crazy. How would you be able to sleep at night knowing that your prank killed a person?
it goes further than that sometimes since they actually want their victim to die. that is the end goal of a lot of people like that, they have forums and servers dedicated to launching and celebrating attacks like swatting or doxxing, in their minds their targets are not people with a right to life and in a lot of cases they might not even view them as human
Thanks for having this podcast. You two are awesome 🙂
I'll be real.. QT said it's fine that X isn't going. She is right it is fine. But to not send you a message, warn you that he's on the fence, literally anything, is fucked up. Dude gets away with so much because of his viewership. I've had friends before that I've cut out of my life because they just fail to respect my time and the same needs to be done here. Stop inviting the dude to shit, he doesn't respect anyone's time. And In this case it's more than time. He should of said on stream "I can't make it.. but check out the event it's gonna be a blast" Not it's gonna be lame cause Soda isn't going.
Dude, her and XQC aren't friends. He doesn't owe her shit. She shouldn't be relying on his viewership to make her events work.
@@ulysses9595 Even if they aren't friends and they are "work colleagues" there's a level of respect and etiquette that comes with that stuff man. That's how the real world works and what separates respectful people.
I will never understand why people kiss XQC’s ass - I don’t get the hype and no one likes a flake
@@ulysses9595 she’s still a person and a professional and there are certain things you must do to not show a complete lack of respect.
@S e p hセフ you are literally thinking about it just as much
I never really thought about streamers getting swatted and you just completely changed the way i look at swattings. I always thought they are annoying and that's it from the clips i've seen and i never really thought about the f'd up sh*t that goes on behind the scenes and i'm very sorry to hear what happend to you QT. The people who are responsible for that kind of stuff will get what they deserve and i hope it will scare off everyone who ever thought about doing it. They will eventually get caught.
Much love and keep doing what you do
looking forward to all of shitcamp qt!! thanks for putting this all together we appreciate you so very much
Much love to both of you, keep up the great work!
Oh QT, I’m so sorry. That sounds horrendous. Sending you all the good, safe vibes. Hoping it all changes for the better. You deserve better.
So excited for shitcamp! Watching from New Zealand so dunno how much I can watch live, but will def try to catch any streams if the time isn’t too ridiculous
Great episode as always! It’s nice having these weekly uploads to look forward to.
Hearing about the swatting incidents actually made me tear up. Appreciate you QT for being vulnerable and real about these awful situations, I can’t imagine how hard it is to talk about. It’s something so many people (myself including) don’t realize how traumatizing it can be. My heart goes out to you and everyone who was in the house and I hope a solution can be found.
On a lighter note: waking up to see prezoh’s naked ass on my timeline was probably one of the funniest mornings I’ve had in a while, truly iconic
The second these hit the feed I’m All in. Thanks ladies! Now LAUNCH THE PATREON & TAKE MY MONEY
I live in Australia and have a list of Shit Camp streams that are poifect for my timezone. Can't wait to watch the vods of all of the others :) Have funs x
How the hell are these comments not talking about the swatting situation more? I can't imagine having to be put into that situation, and it's absolutely fucked up on so many levels.
yea I can't imagine it, it's not just the shock effect of it that's bad is also that you can very easily be fucking killed in a swatting because of how insane American police are just in normal circumstances let alone in a swatting situation
I agree but it's probably cause they talk about it later in the vid and people usually wanna leave a comment pretty early in their viewing of the vid
If you pay attention to the greater QT-Ludverse it's been talked about quite a lot at this point. The Yard did almost a full episode on it, Lud did a Mogul Money on it, it's kinda a known event at this point
I felt kinda sick listening to QT's molestation flashback. truly egregious shit
@@98loud I watched the mogul mail video, and maybe the yard episode was more serious, but it's insane that Lud hasn't pulled the trigger on a studio or similar (even if it's expensive). The difference between the way QT expressed the impact it has had on her, versus Lud saying "wow, you wasted a couple hours of my life, oh no, what will I ever do?!" in the mogul mail video. I'd be livid if something that traumatic was minimized like that.
So excited for shit camp! Looking forward to seeing you all having fun together! Especially looking forward to the open and closing ceremonies.
QT you were AMAZING on the TMG pod - was such a best of both worlds moment!
The thing I'm looking forward to the most is the next episode of Wine about it
This episode was great! I'm always excited to tune in to the latest WAI.
Been loving the new format, yall are both amazing! ✨✨✨
really excited for shit camp!!!! waiting for it rn. can't wait for the archery stream, seems fun. hope whoever been making the calls get arrested. +congrats on the new mics! think the audio definitely sounded smoother🏕💖
hearing maya was excited about the blob after yesterday is so funny
Great episode... I actually like this format. As someone who does not watch twitch and watches some streamers only on youtube, i think the absence of twitch chat for you to read makes it better.
I need longer episodes back. I love listening to you guys talk.
This episode made me cry 🥺 poor Qt and the animals, prayers for you and your healing ❤️ you don’t deserve any of this! 🥺
I've always suffered from night blindness, its not what Maya was saying, it has nothing to do with seeing in the dark but even things you should be able to see are significantly harder to see!!
Hope the guys appreciate having a great house mom like QT. She really risked a lot to wake them up each time they were swatted.
Another great episode, QT and Maya! I've never been a podcast listener before, but yours is the third one I do listen to out of only three. :) I really enjoy the stories, and your jokes.
Y’all are great. I always enjoy these and the time flies listening to it! Keep it up!
It was so cute how QT and Maya talked about Hasan lol. And not to be too parasocial here, but Hasan talks a lot about how he views streaming, so having fun and collaborating with people is a really big thing in what his goals with streaming are. So you dont really have to feel too bad about it probably :)
I like how Hasan has this whole other reality with him which he can escape to. As opposed to his regular reality of leftist infighting
It's very satisfying to know that the first swatter got put away for 20+ years, and I hope that we would get an update when they finds the second one.
