Sorry for all the quotes.
he had 3000 on the last one I watched, to be fair to him. that was only a few days ago
That was because he got the from Richard Spencer and Styx's audiences.
It's actually really sad watching videos of Andy in 2017 and early 2018. Hes looks very healthy and is mostly coherent (if you ignore the stutter). He just comes off as a normal person. And although Andy has never been the funniest guy, he had some pretty funny material and shows at times.
Something radically changed halfway through 2018 and he really has never been the same. He always looks completely disheveled, can barely form sentences, and is not funny at all. He claims it was drug and alcohol. However he should be back to normal if hes no longer doing that like he says. It just makes me wonder if hes not suffering from some form of mild schizophrenia or some other mental illness and he never got the proper treatment for it. People in their late 20s and early 30s rarely have that kind of radical change in their personality without suffering from some sort if mental illness.
What happened was cocaine and lots of it from sources. He apparently had a kitchen table that just had coke on it 24/7. His roommate that moved in after Chris grew up and out of that apartment with his gf used to deal drugs and Andy used to steal coke from him.
Warski himself is not that funny. However, he can be very funny with other people. All the old content with other old IBS types fucking with him on stream in good fun is hilarious. Some of it legitimately, some of it because of how exceptional it can be. The "Adam Warski bombing Hasbro" moment? Actual gold. When you put him with someone almost terminally unfunny like Ralph it's more sad than anything else I will say that some of Warski's attempts at independent short film stuff aren't great, but they're sort of enjoyable. I think if he had focused on that he might've had a smaller audience than he had in the heydays of IBS, but a bigger audience than he has these days. With a more stable life no less.
I had a bit of a soft spot for the exceptional phoenix because of this. Ralph on the other hand, despite having a lot of success and happiness in the past, I could not ever hold sympathy for. Both of them are self-inflicted, but Ralph has always been nasty and petty. Whereas it feels like Warski's issues legitimately stem from drug abuse and mental issues, Ralph is just a shitty person who gets shittier when he sucks Maker's Mark down his gullet and snorts shit off-camera.
With Andy he is the fool in the comedy duo. Andy NEEDS a straight man to be successful. Otherwise nothing he does is actually funny. It's just him being a fool for an audience. It's obvious that Andy isn't that creative to write jokes or witty enough outside of a crude two-dimensional sex joke without someone there to set it up or react and make something more of it. The problem with Andy though is when someone else is taking the spotlight for a second. He gets mad, interrupts and steps on their jokes or set ups and tries to get his audience to not like them for reasons A or B.
A recent good example is when he went on Redbar. Andy is completely ripping off Redbar in terms of Mike David's personality, not only that is that he was literally ripping off bits of Redbar's and even his soundboard. You know that dumb "N" shit he does was stolen from Redbar.
You shouldn't hold any sympathy for that guy at all. That is part of the reason he never works on himself to get better. He relies on people like you to say, "Ah. Andy is a bit retarded. It's okay we forgive him.". From what I can see his personal life is like that too. Hence why he acts like an irresponsible 14 at 32.
He's obviously still on drugs. Maybe he did quit cocaine, but he's still using stimulants.
Oh yes he is. I still think he is doing coke. Someone posted a video of him "jawing" a term for when coke heads grind their teeth which you see him do frequently. Also his incessant rocking and the fact that we heard him do a line on The Killstream. The retard forgot to mute himself.
I don't really personally think that Andy is currently at his worst. His downfall began a little bit before he and JF stopped making the show together and it was all downfall from there. But has has been at bit of an upswing the last couple of months. If he just ditched Ralph and completely separated his show from it and moves to the Azores with his girlfriend to start a family like he has planned for the spring, I think he might get to the highest point he has ever been at.
Andy won't "improve" if he ditches Ralph. Andy left to his own devices is an absolute shit show. As sad as it sounds he will be better with Ralph than on his own lol. Andy is useless as a content creator by himself. He has nothing to offer anyone.
Also the last thing that moron needs to do is knock up some retarded E THOT that he met. Andy can barely take care of himself, let alone a child. That idiot will go to the bar with a baby in a carrier and somehow lose or forget where he put the baby.
Drugs probably helped but I think it has to do with the stress of JF breaking up with him, then being accused of being a pedophile by Corey, then Chris Warski "stealing" money from him, then the whole break-up with Tonka because Optic Decay and his boyfriend ran a scam stream claiming that the other guy (I don't fucking remember his name) had some type of cancer that he never provided proof for, and then the whole leadup to Knoxville with Tonka pussing out and causing problem after problem and that outlet for his frustration not being provided because, again, Tonka pussed out because he's bitchmade. Andy's not all there even before all that, and the people he's surrounded himself with are just as fucked up if not more-so and that didn't help matters.
No Andy got a new roommate that that time. It had nothing to do with "stress" he was making good money with JF and Chris had moved out and then this Kirby guy moved in. The alleged guy that worked with the Hell's Angels in Toronto or some shit. Kirby sold drugs for them and Andy used to steal said drugs from Kirby. Also Andy started drinking a lot at that time as well because Kirby was an alcoholic.
I sincerely hope he does get his life on track. He’s done plenty of contemptible things over the last couple years, but unlike Ralph, I believe a lot of it is just a product of his fragile mental state rather than a depraved mind. I just wouldn’t put money on him changing.
He won't and he can't. Especially with the group that he is associating himself with at the moment. His co-host as well. They like Andy in this state. Andy is their scapegoat for any faux pas right now.
Andy was going nowhere, barely 30 people in his chat. Probably sees Ralph as having resurrected his career. Mutual situation. Ralph gets someone who can make the show more interesting, interacts with the guests, takes the pressure off, etc. and Andy gets promotion. Andy might give him lemons as a thanks or something. Not sure if it's true or not, but I've heard there is some kind of good boy creator points for shilling and contributing to other creators on DLive, so maybe it's that.
Andy was actually getting more people to pay attention to him before joining up with Ralph. He seemed like he was getting his shit together. Then Geek left him and he literally fell apart and started going back to his old habits and routine.
I can't believe when andy was making great points calling out cg and the moment Ralph came to him he turned I'm on geek and became ralph's bitch after Ralph made him cry like a bitch, Andy has no dignity what's so ever.
From the story on the Geek stream he did on Andy after getting his Discord banned. Geek turned on him more or less. Mainly because Andy wouldn't listen to any good advice and kept making decisions about Sub Cultured behind his back. Shit like hiring an artist for stuff and not paying him. I think that it was a friend of Geeks. Also never promoting the Sub Cultured stuff that Geek was doing on Twitch called Trailer Trash. Hiring that Kyler guy because of his "hot takes on race" due to trying to go normie. Then Andy had an account on Twitch where he would go into the chat and anonymously talk shit to Geek and his co-host on the show (I saw it myself I used to watch the show). He was also mad at Andy for lying to him about getting help for his drug and alcohol problem. I used to hang in Geek's circle and the one thing about Geek is that he can't stand drug and alcohol abusers and especially people that lie to him.
It wasn't Andy making those good points. It was Geek making those points against Comicsgate and Ethan Van Sciver. If you remember when Andy went on those two streams with War Campaign and then with EVS. He through Geek under the bus saying it was Geek's idea, not his. Geek argued on his stream that yes he was the one doing a lot of research in it for his own personal interest, but he never intended to make it an all out war on CG. That is what Andy wanted because he thought it would get him a lot of views and he scapegoated Geek for it in order to get forgiveness.
Seeing Andy’s performances these days, I wonder how on Earth did he convince 200k+ people to sub to his channel. His performance has of course declined, but he was never particularly great. I started paying attention around 2017, a few months before the Sargon / Spencer IBS, and IIRC he already had a lot of subs at that time.
He rode trends pretty good - atheism, anti-SJW, Kilroy, IBS, etc. He was big with the Skeptics. He had Chris Warski who would kind of tard wrangle him. The skeptics would also coordinate scripts and topics in skype and/or discords, so he could make coherent, well thought out vids. He also had streams where the Skeptics would go. He was kind of the host and the big players would go on his streams - Shoe, Jeff Holiday, Blair White, SomeBlackGuy, Computing Forever, Sargon, etc. He would have up and comers on too. He just had to laugh and make jokes. Then IBS came and he basically did the same things - but the IBS audience had tons of cash to throw at him. Plus he had an agent and an in with Youtube I imagine because of the high views. But if you watch those streams, to me anyway, while he could move things along, the guests were the stars and he was the comic relief. The platform he created brought the subs - not necessarily him.
It was Chris what built the Andywarski channel, not Andy. Chris was the one writing and editing those videos, not Andy. You can clearly see it in the editing and writing that he did after with the Ari Shaffir video. The ONLY reason anyone knows ANYTHING about Andy at this point is because of the work Chris put into that channel.
All Andy did was show up to make gay jokes and groan at the camera. Chris did everything else.
I will say he is still on some sort of drugs, but in terms of mental illness i think he might be. This is how i view it, i think he had underlying mental issues and never sort help for them since they weren't apparent or even that bad and then when he started to hang around Ralph and he started doing drugs and drinking more that is where those issues started to manifest.
That is my view on it anyway, and yeah you're right he did have some funny materials and came up with some good ideas or shows. now it is just MundaneMatt stream bonaza, nothing funny about it except watching Matts old streams and going "look he did this hahaha so funny and so stupid" i get Matt screwed up in 2018 but come on that train has long since left the station, he needs to think of better material. Which is why when i was watching the streams on Tandoori and Flan channel on youtube i was actually surprised because i saw him in his old streams and it seemed surreal, i honestly thought it was like looking into another dimension. he has changed so much and not for the better, in that stream i posted he talked about how he was going to put the super chat donations into making his streams better, getting a website etc etc. Now he does none of that.
Note: Kids, old people, young people, just people on here in general. Don't let your lives be affected by anyone or any substances, all of you can be capable of something you just have to find what it is. Just because you hit rock bottom it does not mean the end, trust me i know from personal experience. I would rather see people succeed in their lives then them failing.
(okay enough something something on this)
As much as i want Andy and Ralph to screw up so i can get some nectar, if they were to go and improve their lives, and get IRL jobs and get off the internet, i would not be upset in fact i would be happy for them. As long as they remain on here i will continue to post shit about them.
Andy has a mixture of problems. He was abused mentally and physically by his baby sitter. He likes to claim it was sexual, but he keeps flip flopping on it. He will use it to however convenient it is at the time. So that obviously creates some problems. He seems to fear confrontation unless he has back up. Take note of when Ralph trapped him in Miami and he curled into a ball. The on the Geek stream Failure told the story of him confronting Andy and he curled into a ball as well. Then look at the Clearwater tape where he is just reverting to a child like state screaming and crying for people to "STAY BACK!".
Back to the "abuse". I think that Geek is right on that Andy's parents are also to blame in how he is the way he is. They felt guilty about his "abuse" and never actually parented him. So he grew up never taking responsibility for anything and is so used to people just giving in to him because of his unstable personality. Andy will turn on you in a second if he doesn't get his way.
His current issue now is that he drinks EVERY NIGHT to the point of drunkenness and is clearly back on drugs. You don't just wobble and shake like he does without some sort of stimulant (which I think is cocaine again because he is making some extra money). From what Geek said, Andy's dad is an enabler. Andy's dad keeps giving him wine and hard liquor throughout the streams and supposedly watches his show and never thinks, "Holy shit. My son is a trainwreck of a human being!". Also Andy's dad is the one that broke it to Geek that Andy wasn't getting any help for his mental and substance abuse. All the while Andy was lying to Geek about getting help. Apparently Geek was trying to help Andy get his life right, but Andy is so desperate to become an internet superstar to care about being clean and healthy. I think Geek said if you want to know what Andy is like behind the scenes. Picture Andy Dick and that is pretty much what he is. He is a fair-weather friend at best or an abusive cunt at worst. He mentioned how much worse Andy got after Chris left and Kirby (the hell's angel drug dealer) moved in.
This guy keeps talking about moving to The Azores with his gf in order to marry her and have a kid. That is literally the worst thing Andy could ever do (which means he will probably actually do it). He can't even take care of himself properly. How is he going to support a wife and a kid and have his own place with 2500 a month (an average of his lemons).
At the end of all of this. People have to stop giving him chances. It's clear he will never get better. He is addicted to drugs, alcohol and attention. I know he has tricked people with getting better before and I think that he might of been on the right track before because he wasn't getting attention and his ego fed, so he got a healthy dose of reality and started to try to act right. Then people start giving him attention again and he runs right back to being a mess of drugs, alcohol and sexual deviancy.
