Introduction and Guest Welcome
00:00:05
Speaker
Welcome to Chatsunami.
00:00:17
Speaker
Hello everybody and welcome to another episode of Chat Tsunami. I'm Sad Tsunami and joining me for a very special streamer spotlight is the one and only Searching the Sun. Sunny, welcome to Chat Tsunami. Hi, I'm a bit nervous. Hi, I'm Sunny. Nice to meet you all. Don't worry, the listeners at home, they're friendly. They're a friendly bunch as far as I know. But how are you doing today, Sunny?
00:00:41
Speaker
I'm doing great. What about you? Not too bad. I was going to make a funny joke and say the sun is shining, but it is Scotland.
Swiss Origins and Podcasting Jokes
00:00:49
Speaker
So no sun here and none whatsoever. You know what? Other than that, not too shabby, I have to say. It's been a pretty busy day, but, you know, I have to pick it up, don't I? I have to pick it up to be like, you know, I have all this editing to do. I have to do this and that. Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah, obviously. Missed a big short red panda over here, of course.
00:01:09
Speaker
Honestly, I thought you were going to say something that everyone always says to me. Have you found the sun or like something like that? It's like the first thing that comes to people's mind usually. Wait, hold on. Let me stop the recording and say that again. Okay, Sunny, have you found the sun? Nailed it. Yeah, nailed it. No one noticed. This is editing magic right here.
00:01:30
Speaker
Honestly, tell your assistant to edit at 1.80, what, not 80, 50, 80 seconds or something. No, 58. Oh my God, English. I'm sorry. I'm from Switzerland. I'm still learning how to speak, apparently. Well, see, to be fair, you and I both, I can't even speak in the best of these.
00:01:49
Speaker
Imagine hosting a podcast. Couldn't be me. I'm not even here. We both can't speak. That's great. That's exactly what you want to listen to in a podcast, to be fair. That's exhausting.
00:02:05
Speaker
I can't stop laughing. Okay, focus. I'm ready. Are you ready for these heart-touching questions? Yes. Okay, number one. Have you found the sun? No, I'm only kidding. You can't hide from the truth, Sunny. You have to tell the people what they want to hear. Okay, okay. I'll say it one more time. No comment.
Twitch Memories and Usernames
00:02:25
Speaker
Seeing all seriousness, do you get that comment a lot on Twitch? If I found the sun. Honestly, every time, like anywhere, like even games I play on Steam and you know, my name pops up in Fasm or something, people always ask that. I don't know why, I don't know how, I don't know where it comes from. Maybe there's someone else that also has the same name as me, but that can't be because I checked it. Obviously, before I started streaming, I checked if there's another Searching The Sun, just you know.
00:02:53
Speaker
You never know. Have you ever seen the Thumb Highlander, where it's like there can only be one?
00:02:59
Speaker
I don't know why I get that, but I found that it's like, it's a good one to break the ice maybe when you want to talk to people and that's okay. There's worse. I mean, there's that tsunami. I mean, who would choose a name like that? Yeah, like how dare you? Shame. Yep, shame. Dishonored and B and my username. It's terrible business being this tsunami on the internet and for just £1 a month, you too can support a satsut. Now I'm only kidding. For legal reasons, that is a joke. Okay. That's a joke.
00:03:25
Speaker
edit that out. I'm looking in the corner, the red panda lawyer's just like, no, no, no, no, edit that, edit that, get that out of your head. It's desistant. He makes a nice cup of tea, what can I say? Oh, I mean, yeah. Sometimes I forget that a cup of tea is like a religion to you. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. I've got an altar and everything, just like tea bags in a circle.
00:03:47
Speaker
It wakes me up in the morning, damn it. It wakes me up. That and coffee. I feel as if coffee nowadays is just like life energy at this rate. Working a nine to five job and being like, you know those memes you get on the internet where it's like people saying, oh, ha ha, wine o'clock, ha ha. And you look at those memes and you think, oh, that's silly. Who would, you know, laugh at those? But as soon as you see the coffee ones, you're like, ah, that's me.
00:04:11
Speaker
So yeah, you and I, of course, share something in the comments, that of course being that we are both... Not having a life? Oh, sorry. That too. Thank you for shading that with the world. You're welcome. Thank you. Thank you for outing me on my own podcast. Yeah, sorry, that's all the time we have. Where's the stop button?
Starting Twitch During Pandemic
00:04:30
Speaker
But yeah, you and I, we both met on Twitch, but I've actually tried to remember what stream it was that we both met on. Oh, I remember very well. See, it was the night of... No, just kidding. I don't remember the exact day. I think it was last year, September. No, actually sooner. It was in summer maybe. I don't know. Anyway, it was because of a stream of zombie and evil shadow. I don't know if you remember him. And I was just watching evil shadow streams like all the time.
00:05:00
Speaker
And then he had like, I don't know, a collab or, you know, he talked to Zombie somehow and they made a fall guy stream together. You were with Spanky Boy with Spanks in Evil Shadows stream. And then we started talking and then you mentioned you streamed as well. And then that's... And then they went all downhill from there. Yeah. Honestly, I even remember you playing Outlast, scaring the... It was so good.
00:05:29
Speaker
I have to admit, see although it wasn't an enjoyable experience at the time, I feel as if that's one of my favourite streams of all time. Like, I've got a compilation video of it, condensed into a lovely, I think 10 to 15 minutes, where I'm like, this was terrifying, but my god did it make good content.
00:05:46
Speaker
Honestly, it doesn't matter if you shut your pants. It's about content. It's about entertaining people. Give the people what they want. And at that time, everyone wanted you to shut your pants. Are you selling T-shirts or something like these quotes?
00:06:01
Speaker
It doesn't matter if you shit your pants, everyone wanted to shit your pants. Searching this song, 2022. I gotta be honest with you. If someone told me you had the chance to become famous and have like those Twitch streamer lifestyles and have a fancy apartment and like, you never have to worry about money ever again and stuff like that. And all you have to do is shit your pants. Honestly, I would, I would shit my pants. If that makes me famous, I'd do it.
00:06:31
Speaker
But then you're known as the person who famously shit their pants for money. But what are you... Okay, if you can choose for what you're famous for, I mean, there's people who are famous for worse things than that. Don't you think? So at least I'm the one who shat her pants, but I did it out of good opportunity. And there's other people who just shit their pants for free.
Building a Twitch Community
00:06:51
Speaker
At least I would've get paid. You're what they call an opportunist, I think.
00:06:58
Speaker
That's like the legal terminology, probably, that you're an opportunist, not a pantshitter. Listen, you know what they say. If life gives you lemons, you just... I don't... I usually bite them, I eat them. I don't know what you do with lemons, but yeah, I eat lemons. What can I say? I thought you were going to say if life gives you pants, just shit them. That would have been perfect. When life gives you pants, you shit yourself. Searching the sun.
00:07:27
Speaker
Thank you, honestly. I can't believe you know what I've told my friends that I'm doing this podcast thing. And Jinja, she's also from the UK. I was like, yeah, probably she was like, oh, really interesting. I'm looking forward to listening to the podcast. And now I'm just thinking, oh no, I might've just lost a friend. Because she knows I'm weird.
00:07:54
Speaker
now she knows I'm dumb too oh by the way ginger if you hear this shout out to ginger you're awesome sorry I had to you know oh no absolutely go for the shout outs okay I would like to say thank you mom for well whatever reason to be thankful for also thank you to my grandma she probably will never listen at this but anyway I have to do it thank you to my dog he's really awesome best therapist in the world also
00:08:19
Speaker
Actually, I'm done. That's it, yeah. Good choices, good choices. Yeah, going back to, as you said, thank you for reminding me that it was, because I thought it was ZombieStream, that of course being stubborn zombie who has actually been on this podcast before. I think she was like the second person to be on, but second or third. Great interview, by the way. I'm totally not advertising for myself here, but yeah, I remember that, actually. It was definitely a Fall Guys one.
00:08:44
Speaker
I've got to ask, before we get into your words of wisdom for Twitch, other than shitting your pants or gushing for money, what actually inspired you to get into Twitch? Because there's a lot of people who have interviewed and have said, oh, it's because of the pandemic, it's because I was bored and that. Is that the same for you? Or did you have a relationship with Twitch before you got into this?
00:09:07
Speaker
Oh, you want the spicy details about me and my relationship to Twitch, alright? Yep, I want the deets. Okay, I'm spilling the tea now. I did start streaming in the middle of the pandemic, that's true, but not because of the pandemic. I just... Okay, this is going to be a little darker, so if there's anyone listening right now, if you're not used to like, if you maybe triggered or something, so just...
00:09:27
Speaker
saying it it's getting a little bit heavy a little bit heavier okay i'm just yeah i was feeling really down and really depressed and anxious as i think everyone else was i mean a pandemic it's not an easy uh that's not something easy to take in i started to become really anxious about life itself about dying and especially after being rushed to the emergency because i thought that was getting a heart attack that happened like twice
00:09:53
Speaker
The thing is, I'm a pretty heavy person. I'm still young, but I'm, you know, my lifestyle is not that healthy. So it was like, obviously everyone thought I was going to have a heart attack or I'm having a heart attack. And they did checkups and all, and they found something that wasn't alright.
Tech Struggles and Upgrades
00:10:09
Speaker
And I had to west, like, I don't know, things around my chest for weeks.
00:10:13
Speaker
then I don't know why but I thought it just came to my head like oh my god I'm gonna die maybe oh my god like life is so short you know and I was like you know what fuck what everyone else says I'm just gonna live my life I'm gonna do anything I want to do because since I'm dying tomorrow I can just whatever fuck it that's how I started thinking so I was like you know what I always wanted to stream
00:10:34
Speaker
Fuck it, let's just turn the cam on, hit it on. Yeah, that's how I got into streaming. I just didn't think about it. I just did it. I was like, if the world ends, then who cares? So thanks for coming to my TED Talk. No problem. Sorry. No, no, perfectly fine. But in all seriousness, the war inspired you to go to Twitch in particular. Was it a reason or did you just think because it was the biggest one?
00:10:59
Speaker
I didn't have many options. I was watching Evil Shadow very often and he was always having so much fun on Twitch with his friends playing DVD. I just thought that Twitch was the right platform to do so. You chat was fine. There are still many streamers. Do you have a lot of options to watch? And I thought, you know, why not? Because YouTube, I don't remember if you were able to go live on YouTube then. I think so, but I'm not 100% sure. But it still wasn't as big.
00:11:25
Speaker
Twitch streaming thing. I mean they try to push it. It was, I don't know, it was just so easy on Twitch so I just like, whatever. It does seem to be the, well at the time, the most popular option and I was saying this in a previous interview that the only other option probably was like Mixer. Oh, rest
Streamer Growth and Motivation
00:11:40
Speaker
in peace, yeah. Yeah, I mean thank god none of us went to Mixer. I never even heard about it until it got shut down and then I was like, oh, oops.
00:11:47
Speaker
wait didn't one of the biggest streamers on twitch ninja right yeah didn't he go like to mix it for a while and they paid like loads of money and then yeah he got dragged back it's like what's that from the godfather was like as soon as i got out they pulled me back in
00:12:04
Speaker
I mean he was laughing to the bank. I mean he's still doing really great I think. I never watched him but you know. And of course I've got to ask you of course going through that like traumatic experience and first of all good on you for just saying screw it you know life is short let's just go into it but what was the reason behind your name if that's okay to ask?
00:12:26
Speaker
This is a little bit embarrassing, but I was a teenager and I was depressed again. I think I was 13, 14 and then everyone in my class had like Instagram accounts and like, you know, everyone was using Instagram and they had like very inspiring names like emo girl or something.
00:12:45
Speaker
This is like the first thing that came to my head. And actually I know someone who did have that name. So I thought I didn't want the nickname my mom gave me anymore. Cause like, honestly, if I would have kept that, you would have, you would call me puffy right now. We're not sunny.
00:12:59
Speaker
I can't believe I just stole my nickname. Forget about it. Anyway, so I wanted a name that sounds really cool and deep and dark because I remember I was a teenager, but I also wanted something positive. So I thought, you know what, I'm switching the sun. I'm still depressed, but I hope it gets better.
00:13:18
Speaker
I mean, it's a nice name, though. I mean, it's better than, like, if you said you were, like, Sniper Queen XXX 420, no scope. You know, that, I think... I forgot 69. 69 too. I think we'll be having a very different conversation after this. If it's like, so what's the origin? It's like, well, I like... I was stripping.
00:13:37
Speaker
What time did you start streaming? Was it 2020? I don't remember. I think you did start 2020, right? Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Very old, gray hair. By the way, I actually do have gray hair. So embarrassing. Whatever. That's another.
00:13:53
Speaker
topic it was 2021 september october something like that i started streaming and then i i eventually after a few months that's the thing i i i quit but not because i wasn't motivated enough but because i didn't have a pc i had a laptop and yeah i couldn't stream like my streams i don't even know how i hit affiliate i don't even know how people watched my streams because
00:14:17
Speaker
because it would crash and it would lag and I couldn't play any cool games. I would like play Left 4 Dead like every day or like, I don't know if you remember Tequila streams. That's a story for another time. I did that. I was exactly the same. I had a PC. It was, oh, it was horrible. Well, not horrible, but it was a friend. Well, a friend of a friend's PC and one of my friends got given it.
00:14:42
Speaker
and then that friend gave me it and it was like oh yeah it's great for gaming and don't get me wrong for the time it was, it was a bit low upside and by that I mean it was actually nearly falling over because it was like leading to one side but it's like ah other than that it's fine so it could handle games like you know overwatch and things like that so I thought okay I'm gonna try and stream with it and
00:15:03
Speaker
It was like, as I've said to people before,
Expectations vs Reality on Twitch
00:15:05
Speaker
it's like a Russian roulette. Sometimes it would just shut down right away, sometimes it would get 20 minutes into a stream and it would blue screen, sometimes it would be like an hour, and then I switched over to just streaming directly from consoles until I got my PC, the one that I've got now, and oh god, I know what you mean though, it is like quite a struggle. Would you say that was quite, and I don't want to like put a downer on it, but would you say that was quite like demoralizing when
00:15:32
Speaker
the PC wasn't working and you just had your laptop. Okay, first of all, I like to say the way you phrase stuff and ask me, would you put it that way? Would you do that? And like, I really like that. That's very professional. Oh, thank you. I aim to please, you can't see it, but I'm like fixing my non-existent tie right now. I'm like, thank you. No, I just wanted to say that. It's really, really professional. I like it.
00:15:55
Speaker
Anyway, that's my problem. The thing is I never had a PC, so that laptop was everything to me and I still, it was like a child. That was my thing. And even though it was really crappy that I also got it like you from a friend and because he got a new one and he couldn't use that anymore. And I was like, I'll buy it off you. And he was like, no, I'll take it. And it was fine for just chatting streams, but then
00:16:19
Speaker
the time came where it was like it was just crash and it was I was like no I'm done and then depression hit hard again and then I fell into a hole and because it just everything kind of fell apart at some point so I was like oh whatever and now I too have
00:16:34
Speaker
a pc a really cool one actually a whole fucking setup i still can't believe it sometimes when i'm playing a game i i just look at my setup and i'm like wow because it's just i don't have much money it took a lot of time to save up for the pc and even for this mic here and keyboard and mouse and like i don't know how it was for you to get your pc but for me really was a yeah it got me back into streaming this way yeah i'm streaming again by the way i didn't just quit entirely just
00:17:02
Speaker
and can I just say it is like good to see you back streaming again because that is something I kind of noticed because I've kind of had a period just now but I've not been streaming for completely different reasons. It's weird seeing people that and I think a lot of streamers share this kind of sentiment where throughout the pandemic in 2020 there were a lot of streamers that really they just
00:17:26
Speaker
made friends, they bonded, you know, because obviously because of the pandemic and the lockdowns, we couldn't actually get out our houses and things. But as soon as restrictions started to lift, there was almost like another mass exodus. So there was like one end to Twitch in 2020. There was hundreds of thousands of people. And then once the restrictions were lifted, there was just loads of people leaving again. And you kind of thought, I mean, obviously it's good that people are, you know, getting out, living their lives. But obviously,
00:17:53
Speaker
it just feels like a shame almost that you know you meet so many amazing people and they know all of a sudden it's like snap that's it they're going and you're like oh no. I look at a way that we all try to cope with the pandemic in different ways especially people that you know you have to imagine everyone was at home
00:18:11
Speaker
gym bros, kind of like people that would go to gym every day, mothers and children and young adults that, you know, couldn't kind of go to union anymore because, well, fuck my future. It was really bad. And I'm actually glad that people who maybe, you know, people who live by themselves and felt lonely and didn't know what to do and had no one to talk to, they went on Twitch and started streaming or watching other streamers. And honestly, I'm happy that it
00:18:38
Speaker
it all worked out and i'm also glad that even though it's sad to see people go or like people stop watching your streams because you know they have to go back to work or they got the family you know they gotta take care of it's sad but i'm also happy that they could have made this experience and overcome such a difficult time and maybe they've met as you said there were so many great people and this they stay here maybe they don't play games and it like every day and stream but with all
00:19:05
Speaker
I mean, I can't say we've all met great people. I don't know about you guys listening to it, but I've met amazing people on Twitch and Discord and, you know, the whole thing. So I've met Satsu, obviously, hey? Of course. Don't worry, I'll pay, I'll pay you later to PayPal, don't you worry.
00:19:23
Speaker
I make that joke every episode and it never gets old dammit. But kind of going off on that point, is that something you expected when you got into Twitch? Like, did you expect to meet so many amazing people or were you just kind of like diving in head first like, you know, I'll make whatever I make of it?
00:19:42
Speaker
I'm gonna be really honest and I don't care if people think that's sad but I mean it was kind of sad. I do not have, I do have friends in my life but not you know I do have some some really good friends who I'd say I you know I give my life for them but usually for the most part I did not have people to go out with especially during the pandemic obviously
00:20:03
Speaker
I don't know, something about streaming, something about watching those Americans play DVD, you know, Evil Shadow and stuff just made me feel like that seems so great. I mean, there were friends before streaming, but still I was like, hey, maybe maybe if I get to streaming, I can maybe find people who share the same interest as me, who maybe understand me so I can talk to them. And maybe maybe there's someone else who's just like me and doesn't know what to do and they're going to turn up my stream and, you know, watch me. And that's what's
00:20:33
Speaker
I don't know. It's kind of sad, but I really felt like that's... I wouldn't say it's sad, to be honest, because that's kind of one of the main parts of Twitch. It's like finding your community within it and then seeing what sticks because, and again, this is something that's come up in past episodes, but it's like
00:20:51
Speaker
a lot of people kind of expect to just turn on their PC, play a game, instantly get famous and they become like a national icon or something. That doesn't work. Yep, nope, take it from us. Unless you're Satsu, obviously. Oh god, I wish, I wish. I mean, yeah, sure. Satsunami 42, go check it out.
00:21:12
Speaker
But it is the kind of misconception people think that, oh, it's an easy thing and, you know, you're going to get millions of people who are following you and everything, but on Twitch, I wouldn't get to do.
Boosting Visibility with TikTok
00:21:24
Speaker
And hopefully on Twitch. But that's the thing, though, when you go on, because I have to admit, when I came onto Twitch, I had no idea what to expect.
00:21:32
Speaker
none at all. But it's the fact that once you're in there, you find, as you say, like-minded people. You find people who will support you, and because you're in their community, then you find other people who are going to pop by your streams because you interact with their communities. And I feel as if that sense of community and communication with people, and I suppose to an extent you would call it networking, but it doesn't really feel like networking.
00:21:58
Speaker
It's like you're not doing it for, and I'm not saying the old networking sinister, but you're not going in with malicious intentions to be like, I'm here to steal your viewers. You're just there to find people who you're going to really just jail with. Did you feel like that then once you found those people that you were able to build that community?
00:22:21
Speaker
I did find some really cool people, obviously you know, zombie, you and stuff, like there were many others, but I don't know. I realized that lately there's like, obviously you don't know them, they're not like famous streamers, but I actually found like
00:22:37
Speaker
some streamers who I can watch on a daily basis and like really just I'm in the stream and it just I finally found it I used to vibe with a lot of other streamers and don't get me wrong they were great obviously or I wouldn't have watched them you know right now I think I finally found what I was looking for really queer community with you know you can talk about mental health issues super nice people super welcoming even though they're from Canada so
00:23:05
Speaker
the time kind of you know when they start streaming it kind of sucks for me but nonetheless they're really amazing and i finally found that kind of community it's a small community but i'm really amazing and um yeah i for anyone who's hearing this honestly on twitch there's some amazing streamers obviously and you just you know just hop into a chat and start talking to people it's that easy that's what i did and it really twitch changed my life yo what about you satsu the twitch changed your life too
00:23:34
Speaker
nah not a thing nah nah i'm only kidding jokes aside it is amazing how many people you actually meet on twitch see when you start putting yourself out there and interacting with different communities because i have to admit even with the podcast even with
00:23:50
Speaker
the guests that have been on, other people who have streamed with. You know, I've talked to people from all over the world. There's Blowfish Man TV from Canada. There's Stubborn Zombie, of course, down south in England. There's The Bloody Show. He's in Ireland. There's Zizuchi BGE. Yep, I got that name right. From the Philippines. There's, oh, I'm just trying to think who else is. Of course, you from Switzerland. Of course, yep. I'm ticking all the international boxes.
00:24:19
Speaker
really are. You know, Captain Hart, THP, he is from America of course. A lot of American streamers that met Canadians as well. Really just people all over the world and I absolutely love it because, don't get me wrong, as you were alluding to before, not
00:24:35
Speaker
everybody is gonna be nice or perfect or you know you're not always gonna gel with them and I feel as if that's okay because obviously there's like what so many billion people in the world and the fact that you know you're not gonna and it sounds like a pessimistic thing to say but you're not gonna click with all of them
00:24:55
Speaker
that doesn't mean you're doing something wrong because that's the thing. I think that I'm curious to hear what you have to or rather I'm curious to hear what you think about this but do
Building Genuine Connections
00:25:05
Speaker
you think that a lot of new streamers are kind of put off by that notion that as soon as they get into streaming and suddenly they're not popular and they think oh I'm doing something wrong because you know they're not meeting the right people.
00:25:18
Speaker
I think the way that when I look at people my age, everything has to be very fast. I feel like even with social media, and especially since TikTok, I mean, it changed the whole thing. And the thing is that
00:25:34
Speaker
Usually the way you scroll through TikTok and social media in general and videos on YouTube, you all see these massive views and subscribers and people getting the likes. And I don't know, growing up in a generation that had my social media since, I don't know, I was really young when I had my first, you know.
00:25:53
Speaker
I feel like everything has to be fast and everything has to work and then you see you look at your favorite streamers and youtubers and you do exactly what they do and you know they are super famous so it should work out for you too right and you do like the exact things you give it all and then suddenly you're not famous from
00:26:10
Speaker
know because I feel like the media portrays sometimes like people getting famous overnight and just just like that that's not the truth I mean I do believe that maybe somewhere there's like streamers or you know general content creators that maybe they turn into a meme or maybe they have one good clip that goes viral and that what makes them famous from you know one day to another but usually twitch
00:26:34
Speaker
YouTube, TikTok, whatever is combined with a lot of work, a lot of effort you put into. I mean, you know it, you've streamed it, you're doing the podcasts. I mean, and I feel like so many people just, they don't, how did I say it? They don't expect that. It's just, I don't know. It's, you just look at the stream and you're like, Oh my God, they're streaming. They have fans. They, you know, it's so good. It's easy. I can do that too. I just need a PC. What you also need a personality because watching anime and reading mongers is not a personality.
00:27:05
Speaker
not a personality trait sorry i'm just writing this down bear with me i'm sorry i wanted to find a topic that you and me you know we both share because you're a weeb i am i'm an undercover weeb not many people know it but thank you thank you for taking time he watched no and that is the end of the episode
00:27:26
Speaker
I know what you mean though because I have seen so many news articles especially here and I don't know if it's the same in Switzerland but a lot of news articles here that it talks about these amazing young people who have started Twitch as a hobby and then all of a sudden they're super famous, they're super rich, they're buying like a house that's you know
00:27:47
Speaker
That's like one out of how many, you know? Oh yeah, it's literally slum pickings. And it's because a lot of the kind of arguments for it is because they play the same game. So unlike you and I, you're of course variety streamers. Obviously, we're cool. Oh yeah, variety streamer gang represent. We're unique.
00:28:06
Speaker
Yeah, I'm doing the cool kid sign. Just imagine what that is, because I have no idea. I'm doing the rock fingers, like, yeah, cool kids. But imagine any symbol. It is one of those things that I have to admit, I can personally play one game for the rest of my life and be
00:28:25
Speaker
hope you were on Twitch. Going off of that, how would you feel? Obviously, you're an amazing streamer, you've got your lovely community. I was going to say, did you say that as you flipped your head and went, obviously? Honestly, shout out to my community, made a five-member.
00:28:41
Speaker
No, honestly, I'm here on the super famous podcast, obviously, by Satsu.
Streamer Responsibilities and Personal Touch
00:28:47
Speaker
But I don't have that many followers. I'm still getting back into streaming properly. Would you say, though, that it's more important to have a smaller community where people are interacting with you and interacting with one another?
00:29:02
Speaker
How would you imagine yourself if you had one of those lifestyles where, you know, it's like you turn on the chat and you can't read the chat because it's like just, that's the scientific term. And like going so fast, you know, that you can't keep up with it. Good question. I like that. Obviously, obviously good question. Professional podcaster. You know, sometimes when I look at some of my favorite streamers and what they do, I wish I could do the same sometimes.
00:29:28
Speaker
I don't know if you ever heard of pay money wobbly. Pay money wobbly? Yeah, not wobbly. Not wobbly, sorry. My brain was AFK-ing in for a second. You know, he just turns on the stream and there's like a few thousand people watching him and he just does just chatting. Sometimes he reacts to content with people. Sometimes he does games with them. He's really entertaining. And I thought, you know, that seems like fun when you have
00:29:53
Speaker
enough money to create content that's a little bit bigger more exciting you know but when the chat goes off where like so many people say so many nice things sometimes and i'll be like i don't know if i could because i'd be devastated if i'd miss one comment when it's negative obviously fuck off i don't need that comment i'm just gonna scroll through it but when it's a positive comment or someone saying hey i'm not feeling well today can i talk to you or um you know
00:30:20
Speaker
I think I'd miss that. So I'd rather have a small community, but sometimes I do wish I had like, I don't know, more money to like do really big content. I don't know. Like, you know, those are the things that famous Twitch streamers do.
00:30:35
Speaker
Because it is the kind of trade-off, isn't it? It's like you can either be really famous in Twitch and you can have all these eyes on you, but you're not going to be able to interact with every single person the same. Whereas the level we're at just now where it's like you've got the same familiar people and you've got new people coming in and everything, it's
00:30:54
Speaker
kind of like quite an experience I think so far but honestly I think it's a weird thing for me to think about that kind of buzzsaw chat as I like to call it. It looks like if you touch it you're gonna get your hand taken off but do you think it feels quite impersonal? It depends like I have no experience with it because
00:31:13
Speaker
For me it's like one side of me saying that I wish so many people would I don't think my content is that great or that entertaining I'm just being myself and maybe there's some people who like it and most of it don't and that's okay I rather have more personal things going on with the community and the people I talk to rather than being kind of I don't know when you watch famous or big streamers they don't even talk
00:31:38
Speaker
talk or acknowledge really chats unless they're spamming things and obviously it's not their fault because there's so many people watching but it's like it feels like cut off like something something's missing that's that's my opinion maybe someone else is like oh what you what you say and i'm like oh well but that's my opinion it's okay they can't read it the chat's going so fast
00:31:58
Speaker
I don't know I just I feel like you can miss out a lot of wholesome amazing people yeah that's just I don't know maybe you maybe you wish to be I don't know to have like to burn your hands.
Personal and Social Growth
00:32:09
Speaker
I don't know well that is cool to you Scott one so maybe now joking aside I don't I don't think I would like it to be honest I've had a lot of time to think about it you know from 2020 and
00:32:21
Speaker
I have had moments as well where I've been streaming and I think, well, what's the point of streaming? You know, not many people are watching, why are they so popular? I know, you know, like, really kind of negative mindsets and things about streaming, to which I've kind of thought, oh, should I be doing this or should I not? But I don't know how well I would handle that because at the end of the day, although I felt like that, those people in my chat were always there for me and
00:32:46
Speaker
the friends, including you of course, and everybody else, of course, they have MVP right here.
00:32:53
Speaker
The fact is that it's almost become like, as I said before, I didn't know what I was getting into with Twitch. I just jumped like head first and thought, okay, we'll give it a go. What are we going to do? What's it read? And so on. And it's been a complete learning curve for me, but I think the best thing that's come out of it is just solely the fact that I've met so many amazing people and how even in this time, where there's been a global pandemic, there is just so much hardship going on in the world.
00:33:22
Speaker
It's amazing that I found these people just by chance just because I played a video game online. It's something that you would hear, you know, your mum or dad being like, oh no, it's dangerous to talk to these strangers. But at the end of the day, it's like these people who you connect with, I think it's like just amazing how Twitch brings people together. Do you feel the same way?
00:33:44
Speaker
Obviously, I mean, I remember my mom and like everyone else always saying like, you have to be careful. Strangers on the internet, they can hurt you. And I quickly realized, usually it's the people around me who hurt me more than strangers on the internet because strangers on the internet remain strangers very often. They leave a bad comment, but that's it because they don't have the balls to do anything else, you know? But there's like so many amazing people and I feel like social media, not social media, but social media, I wouldn't say social media,
00:34:14
Speaker
I'd say Twitch or like, you know, Discord servers and, you know, this is like many, of course there's also, there's also stupid, ignorant and very bad people on the internet. It's not just safe. You can still meet people that really you don't vibe well with, you know, that just the energy doesn't match. But usually I'd say, yeah, I've, I've met, I've met amazing people and it brings also people together.
00:34:38
Speaker
Twitch especially. I don't know about the other platforms. I'm not that... I don't know that many others. But yeah, I feel like Twitch is also great too to interact fast with people because if you look at YouTube, YouTube you upload the video and then you watch the community react to it. Like your fans or whatever you want to call it.
00:34:58
Speaker
And on Twitch, it's live. It's like you can write that comment and you can bring people together much faster because you can interact with them much faster. That's what I feel like. I definitely feel as if there is a huge difference, see between a community in YouTube versus a community in Twitch. Oh yeah, absolutely. Because in Twitch it almost feels as if it's just like random luck.
00:35:22
Speaker
sometimes. Because I mean, you've seen the amount of people who say, oh, why am I not getting the views? And it's like, well, that person's for a certain audience, and quite frankly, I would not want those kind of people on my stream. Whereas, you know, with a YouTube video, it's almost like throwing paper to the wind and hoping that, you know, someone's going to grab that piece of paper and read it. Sometimes you might hit a party
00:35:46
Speaker
other times it might just go completely down the sewer drain, you know, you don't know where it's gonna go but you're right, like with Twitch there's more opportunities, as it were, to actually interact with people, to get cosy in other people's communities. Because after that I have been in so many people's communities and some of the nicest people I've ever met have been in there. And I get that whole argument of, oh they're just internet peeps but internet peeps are still people.
00:36:12
Speaker
Yeah I mean they still live on and like we still share the same planet. You started off with Twitch but you also using YouTube quite a lot right? How was your experience compared to Twitch now? I would definitely say Twitches although Twitch and YouTube like I haven't tried streaming on YouTube I would like to do that one day just to try it out and see how it goes but for YouTube as a whole I am not a big fan of it because
00:36:40
Speaker
not in a bad way. For all those YouTubers it gets successful, you know, all power to them. It's not, I'm not saying it like, oh YouTube smelly, keep it away. Yes indeed that is the mature term, it's smelly. But the thing is with YouTube is it's all up to luck and it gets very demoralising when it's like you put in
00:36:59
Speaker
I'm not saying like my compilation videos and edit videos and I did a Let's Play once called Tea Posing, you know I'm not saying those are like you know the Citizen Kane of Let's Plays or oh they're amazing or anything groundbreaking but it is quite annoying when you see videos like that that you've put your time and effort into get like a handful of views.
00:37:21
Speaker
doesn't get acknowledged. Whereas someone could upload a clip of a popular TV show or a very low effort shitpost and I love a good shitpost more than anyone but when you see that taking over something that you've put effort into you get annoyed and kind of disheartened and think okay then what's the point?
00:37:43
Speaker
And I know that's quite a negative kind of outlook because it's not their fault by the person who uploaded the other video. It's not their fault at all. And it's the same when it comes to Twitch streamers, because I'm curious as well to hear what you think about this. But you get a lot of people on Twitch who they'll pull any excuse under the sun. No, no offense.
00:38:03
Speaker
And just as I said that, I thought, oh god, I hope I haven't offended. Don't cancel me, Sunny, please. You just had to, huh? You had to, I had to, you know. But they'll build any excuse out and they'll be like, oh, I'm not popular because of this streamer's doing X or Y or they're being very low effort. For me personally, it's the community that I love about Twitch, because in all honesty, I don't get a lot of feedback.
00:38:27
Speaker
at least at this point in time I do not get a lot of feedback on YouTube whereas when I'm on Twitch it almost feels like going back to a club if that makes sense you know you're the cool Satsu club cool kids only
00:38:40
Speaker
And, you know, you get to talk to people, you get to interact with people. More fun, I guess. Yeah, I have to admit, some better than others. But for the majority, your community and everything, it's great to be a part of that. But yeah, what's your take on that? Sorry. No worries. I liked listening to your opinion because you're not talking stupid shit like other people do. Well, I do try.
00:39:04
Speaker
Sorry, that's something that I like to tell people how I feel about them or when they talk because I'm just very honest and I feel like people who talk like that should be appreciated more, you know? Because if I listen to another male podcast with a shitty opinion ever again, I swear I'm gonna delete myself from the internet.
00:39:23
Speaker
this is why thank you Satsu for not being like those other podcasters and now you may think who you're talking about well glad you asked
00:39:34
Speaker
I was actually about to ask, but go ahead, yeah. No, there's just so many, there's so many podcasts for males. Like, I don't know if you saw that clip, but there was this one dude who said, Oh, you know, she has an Instagram. She's a cheater. Yeah. If my female has an Instagram, like things like that, or another, another male podcast again, if my wife doesn't lose the baby weight she put on though, during those nine months of pregnancy, I'm going to leave her. Cause I'm like, excuse me.
00:40:01
Speaker
If I have to listen to those podcasters ever again, I will delete my twitch, my social life, anything. I'll be just living under a fucking rock. Alright, so thank you Satu for not being stupid and ignorant. First of all you're welcome, but second of all what podcasts are you listening to?
00:40:20
Speaker
It's not that I try to find them, it's they find me. Especially on TikTok. Oh, I've seen so many bad clips. My For You page is just... Oh, that's another story for another time. I'm all right. What was the question again? Oh, yeah, YouTube and Twitch, right? Interacting with people.
00:40:38
Speaker
I think that I've seen people put so much effort into creating those YouTube videos and making music, making funny content, playing a game, whatever. And then you just need luck. Like you just, I don't know, but do you ever go on YouTube and try to find smaller channels? Do you go on YouTube to find smaller channels?
00:41:00
Speaker
Sometimes I, this is the issue because you're always gonna get a mix with smaller channels because sometimes you'll interact with them and they'll be like, oh thank you, you know, and that's kind of the end of it. Other channels sometimes, and I don't mean this in a bad way, but sometimes you see people who like post all these clips and it's like film through a potato and it's like the grainy audio as if it's like they're yelling through like a 1940s radio.
00:41:30
Speaker
I was like welcome today we're going to be playing Call of Duty. It's like oh my god no but again you know everyone has to start somewhere like I'm not pooping on you know their quality but it's always a mix and again it's very hard on YouTube to find people like that because as soon as you type in you know let's say heavy rain playthrough. You've played heavy rain haven't you? I have yeah it's devastating. Yes it is. If you would like me to take all of the
00:41:59
Speaker
all of the seriousness out of it with a talking sandwich and a V-trooper model. Yeah, watch my playthrough. You're going to see it a whole different way after that. But the point I was going to make there was the fact that if you type in heavy-date playthrough, my video, of course, isn't going to come up. It's going to be, you know, PewDiePie probably. Yeah, PewDiePie, Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, all of those kind of streamers are
00:42:24
Speaker
content creators rather. And there's nothing wrong with that. I just went there yesterday. I don't want to be like, oh, it's going to be them, but for good reason, because that's the way the algorithm works. It puts all the highest viewed ones to top, and I know technically you can filter it, but I don't know if you've noticed this. YouTube is doing a weird thing where it's like the first couple of videos is related to what you're searching for, but then the next couple are kind of completely random.
00:42:49
Speaker
or on point but not yeah it's weird i don't get it i feel as if youtube is just like a minefield it's not as easy to get as visible on there as twitch i feel even on twitch like i mean let's let's be honest here on twitch the chances of being discovered are still small especially when you start streaming and honestly like i don't know how often i
00:43:14
Speaker
I've told people or I've had people tell others when you do start streaming on Twitch there's so many categories like there's so many people streaming the stuff it's like it's same on YouTube there's so many people doing what you're doing it's just it's it's not it's not easy to get discovered doesn't matter what you do just do play that again just
00:43:37
Speaker
No, but I totally get what you mean, though. It is very difficult to become visible, especially on, as you said on Twitch, where there's loads of people who are doing exactly the same things as you, or people who, again, have brought this up before to you, kind of jokingly, but people who are actively provocative on their streams. And again, I'm not talking about that type of streamer. To the people listening going, oh, I know. It's like, no, no, no, no.
00:44:05
Speaker
What kind of streams have you been watching? I'm around, I mean, what? Nothing? No, I watch this weirdo called Sat Tsunami 42. He's still not done a hot tub stream, but one day, one day. But no jokes aside, whether it's male or female streamers, because I feel as if female streamers do get the brunt of it by people saying, oh, there's these streamers that are very provocative and things, but
00:44:29
Speaker
whether or not that's the case. At the end of the day it's the viewers that are really supporting that and that's the thing that annoys me though because it's like you could put in all the effort and the world and that's why I don't believe and I don't know how you feel about this but it's like
00:44:45
Speaker
what you were saying earlier about not being able to stream because you need a computer. But there's a lot of streamers who feel like they need a computer to stream, that they need a fancy overlay, they need all the bells and whistles, and I've seen streams that look absolutely clean.
00:45:02
Speaker
the end of the day they've only got like three to five views maybe and again that's not slight at them but it's as you said it's just like the kind of chances of being discovered whereas i've seen people who have streamed directly from the xbox playstation i've done that before and i've had some amazing streams from it in fact all of the halo videos that i've got my youtube channel are like compilation videos from the streams that i did with friends and
00:45:27
Speaker
those were some of the best memories I've had on Twitch. At the end of the day, I think it's something that you said at the beginning of this episode, it's your personality that's going to shine through, you know, it's not going to be, and this is the other thing as well, it's like you want to attract
00:45:42
Speaker
your community because as I said if you've got certain people of certain communities you know you don't you really don't want that do you? There was a few things with you know the females and twitch and stuff and also you're right you can put so much effort to it like your stream can look clean and all and and it's still nothing works nothing's happening and but the personality thing same my therapist would say to me you attract what you show kind of
00:46:07
Speaker
So if you're like, for me, if I'm a really queer streamer, just having fun and enjoying and not playing hardcore games, like I do play Valorant, but it's more like I'm not good at it, but I'm just having fun. You attract those kind of people and you will eventually find your community. But if you keep doing whatever what everyone else does, why should they watch you? What makes you special about it? Because today having a good mic
00:46:34
Speaker
and maybe good looks they don't they don't do it anymore maybe for some people it's that it's not enough you need to i'm not saying that you need to put all your effort and all your energy into streaming and stuff but you have to put some efforts into it you can't just expect to turn on your cam oh i got a nice mic and all i'm good at a certain game you know my aim's right and people's just gonna come in and you're gonna be famous and that's just
00:46:59
Speaker
That's not how you build a community. A community is built through time and trust and talking to them and eventually it will get bigger. If you've been streaming for an entire year and there's still no one watching you stream, why don't you watch some footage of it? What can you improve? Watch some other streamers, what they did, what do they do? You don't have to do the exact same, but there's so many ways on how to build a community, on how to stream on Twitch. I mean, there's so many fucking videos on YouTube that I have watched.
00:47:29
Speaker
By the way, I did improve some things, just want to throw that in. And also about YouTube and Twitch, something I forgot to say, I had to write it down. I feel like on Twitch, it's easier to get discovered or it's having people interact with you because on YouTube, you have to find a creator, watch the video, and you have to invest time and a lot of patience to the video. And on Twitch, you just, um, wait, how, what did I write down?
00:47:53
Speaker
Yeah, it's just faster to figure out for you if you're into that kind of feeling or vibe you're getting when you're streaming directly and then you're watching someone stream and then you can talk to them so it's much easier to do things rather than on YouTube. And if you do want to get discovered also, you should really use TikTok, Satsu. Oh, I do use TikTok. I know! Oh, use it more. Yeah, yeah. I know. I know. Oh my god, Satsu, I have to tell you this. Tea time. Someone clipped something really embarrassing of me.
00:48:23
Speaker
Twitch and it was me having a moustache on and I thought it was so funny. I posted it on TikTok for like my friends to see and then I suddenly got a thousand views and I was like, fuck, sorry. I mean, well done to you for getting those thousand views. I don't fucking know why that happened. It's not embarrassing, but I thought it was funny and I didn't want to send it to all of my contacts. I was like, everyone is using TikTok. I'm just going to put it there for my friends to see and then
00:48:52
Speaker
Sorry, I had to change the subject, I'm sorry. No, no, I totally know what you mean. See, for me personally, I do think that, especially for TikTok, I think it is very... Ugh, how do I put this? Volatile? Maybe? Is the right word? Because I'm just having a quick look at mine just now, just to see what kind of videos are popular.
00:49:14
Speaker
hmm let me have a look too. So most of the videos that I post are because I'm more of a I say Vtuber, I'm not, I am but I'm not but that's a whole other thing but it's like the kind of in the low views I'll probably get like kind of 70s minimum and I think the video that I've got the most views on is a college student one that has over I think it's 2,700 odds and that's purely by luck. That is also thank you for the follow up.
00:49:43
Speaker
I just realised I didn't follow you and I was like, oh no, I've got to. Anyway. I was sweating there thinking, did I? But yeah, it's again, it's discouraging because I was putting up clips that I thought were genuinely funny off the channel. And then, of course, I put them up. It may be like 100 or 200 people like it or not like it, but watch it rather. And I like it a lot, I have. Very funny. But what I started doing because I really got into war zone during the pandemic,
00:50:11
Speaker
and I have like a, I don't know what it is, it's like Nvidia that saves clips on your computer whenever you get a kill or you die or whatever and because I had a lot of those I was like okay I'll post some of them and maybe post like a funny sound
00:50:27
Speaker
over it. Those are the ones that seem to do the best and I kind of feel really not down about it but kind of rubbish that you know it's like a kind of low effort video that's getting all the views with it. It's like you're the diversity all over again. It's the things that I put the least effort into. It's like oh wow I'm getting you know all the praise for this one but as soon as you put your heart and soul into one it's like nah.
00:50:49
Speaker
Nah, no one wants to watch that. Again, it's nothing against other content creators, what they are doing. It's completely up to chance. As you said, it's whether or not you get noticed, hashtag notice me, but I'm really curious before you start asking me questions because I know you've got quite a few, but where do you see yourself going with the channel? And I know that sounds like a very business question, like, where do you see yourself in five years' time? But where do you see yourself taking the channel?
00:51:17
Speaker
Okay, first of all, in five years, I see myself on an island with a cocktail next to my Shimsugar mommy, all right? At least seven dogs, wiener dogs specifically, okay? Nothing else. Mansion, butler, and on the weekly podcast again of Satsunami, you know?
00:51:34
Speaker
No, seriously, I don't know, I'm just gonna keep on streaming and see where it takes me. Life is short, life happens fast and suddenly and today you're streaming, tomorrow you're not around anymore, so I don't really plan anything, to be honest. Because as soon as you start planning, there's a huge chance of failing. So I just go with the flow. I wish to build a bigger community, not too big. I don't even know if I can pull that off, to be honest. But yeah, that's...
00:52:03
Speaker
That's it. I don't want to make money off Twitch. I don't want to be famous or some bullshit like that. I don't think I could pull that off. Again, I don't have the qualities was it takes to be, you know, I don't have Sato's ankles and legs, you know? Do you want to explain that or will I explain that? So it was one day. It was raining. I felt no.
00:52:25
Speaker
It was storming outside. I don't even know how we got to that, but at just some point... I'll tell you exactly how we got into it. Oh. It was because I was on Instagram one fine morning and I was flicking through and I noticed in any streamers out there, feel free to hit me up and be like, I too have suffered through this injustice. But I was like scrolling through and I noticed that a lot of streamers were like, you know, they were using the hashtag twitch and things, which fair enough.
00:52:54
Speaker
There was a lot of, in particular, female streamers who were posting pictures of their legs and they just had the game beside it or they'd have a controller on the lap and they'd be like, oh, I'm playing this game. What do you think of this game? And it's like, you know what, if that floats your boat, whatever. But I was like, this is so, the reason I thought it was so strange, like, see if it was a one-off,
00:53:19
Speaker
know, I would have saw it, moved on. But there was a good couple of them, and I was like, huh. And I don't, when I say a good couple, I don't mean like, you know, it's a one-off picture, like it's someone who has the likes and the shawl, and it's like, yeah, that's fine. No, no, I mean a full catalogue of legs and video games, and I didn't know that was a sub-genre apart.
00:53:40
Speaker
We did something wrong, Satsu. We're in the wrong business. That's all I'm saying. Honestly, I would support you. Thank you. 100% if you were to post leg pictures on OnlyFans. I would subscribe to you every month. For £5 a month, you too can support a very lonely Satsu and his legs. That's www... Oh, no, sorry. That's https.com. Did someone else said that in the podcast? I was like, that is amazing. I am stealing that joke.
00:54:11
Speaker
Honestly, I remember coming into like every single stream just saying sad to please show legs. And everyone was like, what? They thought I was some, I don't know, some filthy animal trying to like.
00:54:26
Speaker
A swiss degenerate just coming in the chat. Oh no! And listen, we all have different kings, we all have reasons why we just have them. Sometimes it's trauma, sometimes it's just pure pleasure, I don't know. But if you do like legs, don't be ashamed. That's the message. I was gonna say, if you got any last words and it's like, yeah, legs. Searching the sun, 2022, legs.
00:54:51
Speaker
Okay, but if I can say some really epic words, I don't know if maybe it's not going to be so epic. Y'all do me a favor and stop caring about what others say. I know it's like everyone says it, but no one actually means it. But as soon as you start living your life, not giving fucks about what other people think,
00:55:10
Speaker
it's much easier especially since I don't know if you've noticed but um one day you're gonna die and nobody's gonna remember you nobody's gonna care about you because we're all dying one day and I feel like it's worth living a life in I don't know not living a life in pain and hiding and just constant whatever if you want to stream go on and stream if you want to do a podcast I get some advice from sad too he knows how it's done hey great podcast by the way great guest as well
00:55:39
Speaker
but yeah just do whatever you want to do unless it's illegal or you know you hurt yourself or others you shouldn't do that too yeah that's it that's um yeah that's um oh and legs oh and yes shit your pants oh yes again for legal reasons yep i'm getting the thumbs up over there yeah okay legal reasons legal reasons
00:55:59
Speaker
you're totally right though because and you know I'm gonna give you a little bit of an inside peek into the mind of Satsu here. I was in a very similar boat of like before the pandemic you know working the 9-5 job I still am you know I'm not that famous but
00:56:15
Speaker
you know working at a 9-5 job and living the same life day and day out and you know the pandemic hit and everything and it wasn't until my friend, so I've got a friend too, he is quite frankly an inspiration and I'm not going to name names because I get the feeling they probably won't be listening to this so you know who you are. Talking about me yeah I know where you are. If you want to see a picture of him look in the mirror.
00:56:39
Speaker
fit this rent like they've known for years. He honestly is a bit of an inspiration. He's gone off, he's done all the things he wants to. He's still building up his passions and things. And he was the one who turned around to me and said, why don't you start a Twitch channel? And ever since then, of course, it's been a downward spiral. But no jokes aside, it's that kind of, as you said, it's that motivation to say, OK, this is something I enjoy. This is something I want to do. Because I have to admit, when I started the podcast, I had no idea where it was going to go.
00:57:09
Speaker
that was kind of like, oh, is it going to be great? Is it going to be bad? Is it going to be all about gaming? What was it going to be about? And at the end of the day, it's more about the journey than it is about... Because I mean, the end goal can wait, really. If you're doing something you enjoy, just... And again, that sounds cliche as hell, but it is. It's enjoying the journey you go on, the people you meet along the way.
00:57:29
Speaker
meeting Swiss people who are into legs, you know this. Okay wait, no just a little, I'm not into. I appreciate everyone's legs, you're all beautiful but I'm not really into legs, I'm sorry. Well okay, I was young, I didn't know. It was just Tatsu's legs to be honest.
00:57:47
Speaker
I was going to say, I feel as if the leg appreciators would even call them legies or something. The leg appreciators are just listening to this going, that's it. I'm boycotting Chats in Ami. You know what? No.
00:58:08
Speaker
It's exactly like that, yeah. Yeah, turning it back on you to move away from the lane. Yeah, you were saying, no, no, don't be sorry at all. That's what the podcast is for. Yeah, you were saying that you had a couple of questions for me. Oh, okay. Super, super important, all right? Okay, first of all, we're going to be fast here because we've been talking for a while now. If you could have any streamer on this podcast, who would it be? Yeah, next question.
00:58:39
Speaker
I'm nothing f-not efficient. And if you could pick anyone in this entire world, dead or alive, to be on the podcast, who would you pick? Why would you pick them? And what would you talk about?
00:58:53
Speaker
That's a good question. See, ever since, so this again seemed like a very weird and obscure one because there's obviously so many, you know, historical figures I could choose from, there's so many, you know, things like that, you know, like I could talk, there's a bunch of game developers, voice actors, you know, that I'm thinking of. One of the ones I would really love to interview is, have you heard of a game called Deadly Premonition?
00:59:15
Speaker
So it's, I don't think I've played it though. Yeah, it's basically my co-host Adam on the podcast and I, we actually bonded over that game. There was a lot of things we bonded over, you know, we went to see like Terminator together, we hung out after that. Romance. It really is. It's like big bromance also shout out to Adam, probably sitting listening to this stuff. Shout out Adam.
00:59:39
Speaker
I'll get a message from him being like, oh, thank you. Rightfully so. He's an awesome guy. But yeah, we played this game Deadly Premonition together and long story short, it's a bit like Twin Peaks of Twin Peaks was a video game. So really fun, really awesome game. And
00:59:55
Speaker
Well, it's not awesome in the traditional sense. It's like it's infamous for being quite buggy and laggy and things like that. But the creator is a guy called, obviously this isn't his real name, but he's username online is sweaty65. I don't know. I would just like to have him on and just be like, why? Just what?
01:00:17
Speaker
just why would you do this? Why would you make this game? It's like, you know that meme image where it's like, why would you do this? And then it cuts back and it's like, to test my strength. It's like, oh no. I mean, if I was being geeky, I would probably say something like the voice actors of like childhood games that I've played.
01:00:33
Speaker
you know, like someone like the hedgehog or maybe someone from Call of Duty or even Hale, I would take someone from that. But you know, there's so many people that I would, well, I'd be too afraid to ask them, but regardless, it's like, it's okay, it's hypothetical, they won't come on here. Honestly, I like that answer a lot. Well, thank you. I thought you were going to something boring like
01:00:54
Speaker
I don't know, I would choose King, whatever, because their history inspired me so much. No, but okay, if you do have someone who's like that, it's okay, you can... And again, I don't want to shout out the podcast too much, but I'm going to shout it out again. But I remember we got a question on our 50th episode celebration where somebody asked,
01:01:14
Speaker
if you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why? And I was racking my brains because I thought, you know, who could I say that makes me sound, you know, profound and, like, not a dumbass? And Adam turned round and says, and honestly, like, if any of you guys are listening, don't believe me, go check out the episode. But Adam turned round and he says, King Henry VIII. And I was like, why King Henry VIII? And he goes, because he would put on a mean feast. And I was like, I can't argue with that. That's a damn fine answer.
01:01:42
Speaker
you would have a damn good feast. And you know what? I would be part of that. I'd be tucking in. So yeah, sorry. I mean, I thought maybe you're going to come with something like Einstein or... No offense to Einstein, you know, but I wouldn't mind to know what that, but what are we going to talk about?
01:01:58
Speaker
I mean, as far as I know Einstein's not a gamer. Maybe. I don't know. Maybe. You never know like sometimes I want to put people from ancient times or like people from you know that are already dead obviously. Put them in this time and era and then show them the internet. Show them all the animes that are just what the fuck. Show them the games. Just see what happens. Will they jump off a cliff because they're like what the fuck has happened to humanity? Probably.
01:02:24
Speaker
I want to do the same sometimes when I see some content online. But yeah, thank you very much for your answer. Well, first of all, thank you so much for coming on the episode. It's honestly been such a blast.
01:02:38
Speaker
I have to thank you Satsu, it's been really... I'm having so much fun and I feel like you're a person that we could talk about anything like it doesn't matter how stupid something is like you always you're just fun to talk to yeah it's also really interesting to listen at you and the voice oh the voice 10 out of 10
01:02:57
Speaker
I appreciate it thank you and that wasn't a paid compliment for once so thank you. You paid me for everything else but that compliment I was free. Basically Sunny told me that if I paid her for her appearance on this episode then she would throw in one free compliment so I've been waiting the entire episode for her and it was worth that wait until the end.
01:03:18
Speaker
