Balancing parenthood, gaming, and content creation is no small feat, but what if you could find harmony in these seemingly disparate worlds? Today, we open up about our own experiences in this juggling act, sharing how we negotiate streaming schedules with our partners and troubleshoot those pesky technical issues with OBS and Streamlabs. Whether you're a dad who loves gaming or a content creator trying to find your groove, we've got some insights to make your journey a bit smoother.
Remember those epic multiplayer nights with friends on Phasmophobia and Among Us? We do too. We reflect on those memorable moments and the camaraderie they bring, while also exploring the challenges of keeping a consistent streaming and TikTok schedule without burning out. From tips on making your streaming more sustainable and enjoyable to discussing the various tools that can maximize your efficiency, we aim to keep your passion for content creation alive and well.
What happens when a high-profile streamer gets banned from Twitch? The drama surrounding Dr. Disrespect and the legal and social fallout is a hot topic, and we break down the implications for content creators. From managing public opinion to the risks of false allegations, we navigate the complex landscape of online fame. We'll also talk about the resilience it takes to keep creating amidst controversy and how different streaming personalities affect your viewing experience. Join us for a candid conversation on balancing career risks, parenthood, and the love for gaming that keeps us going.

I'm from Australia and am what you would call a father who games. I have 5 kids so not as much time to game as I used to. But I still game and stream when I can. So come join me on Twitch in chat as we chill out.
