I still can't figure out if he's really coming on the JACK show next week or if my shitpost detector is broken.
Trolls.
JACK Show
The JACK Show pre-show on Jon Malin's channel featured a stammering, disjointed, painfully inept QRD by Jon.
He's "psychotic" and he's going to "stab us all at some point in our lives", says Jon.
Anna didn't care in the slightest about the entire Steele debacle save for the fleeting 2-seconds she thought it was going to be about her.
Jon's near complete inability to get any traction or even formulate a cogent thought continues
Anna then went on to emasculate Jon as he made both herself and Kelsey increasingly uncomfortable with the exquisitely detailed yet profoundly un-entertaining breakdown of what makes STEELEWORLDWIDE tick.
"The obsession is real"
At that point I gave up on chopping the stream as in the absence of Frog to bring the bantz, the rest of them just continued to play(?) dumb for the remainder of this stream and during
the JACK Show itself, but above are the early, relevant clips anyway.
STEELEWORLDWIDE's 2nd Comic Book Nerd Video
After a day to recover from his, umm, illness,
Ethan regroups with half the JACK Show incl. Jon and Anna as well as a captive Mike Baron to address STEELEWORLDWIDE and crystalize what it all means for the group since a Frog-less Thursday amounted to a rudderless Thursday, with nothing advanced on this issue. The Malt Liquor video efaping
begins at aprox. 59-minutes.
After a brief intro, Anna gets it first at aprox 1hr 5min. Though she was not on cam for the stream, one gets the sense of her sliding off the edge of her chair at the prospect of a male (a) exhibiting masculine traits (albeit dysfunctional ones) while (b) treating her like shit. Ethan then interrupts Anna's
entirely baseless and unconfirmed shlick with some deferential simping until Jon interrupts Ethan's deferential simping with diving headfirst into Retarded Takes on Steele: Volume II: Conspiracy Theory Edition, which Ethan puts an abrupt stop to. Anna was mostly spared further
sexual arousal humiliation as I believe some of Steele's comments may have been skipped-through by Ethan.
Next to get it is Cecil at around 1:10:25 with a quick "fuck you", heartfelt. There's then some confusion about Cecil, which Jon makes clear as mud. As mentioned by
@Pilule Noire above, the viewer is then made to feel Mike Baron's crushing pain and regret over needing to know any of his, an indignity leading to what could be described as the sort of forlorn sadness and distraught confusion
expressed by Brooks just before
he hangs himself. Ethan gets shit on at 1:12:00 which is met by Frog with talk of his, umm, illness and more cope but not cracking a 40 oh-zee in frame and enjoying in a timely manner.
In an unsurprising plot twist, Anna gets simped on by Trent Steele at around 1:14:30. Whether this is because the booze is taking hold or if he's suddenly squinting (or not squinting) is unclear. Deranged Witten, being the easier target, gets the brunt of his ire towards women from this point forward. Mr. Steele then reiterates his utter disdain for comic books nerds at around 1hr and 19min, which Ethan "Like Fire Tonight" Van Sciver responds to by attacking Mr. Steele's taste in music. The topic is then closed out by Ethan hilariously suggesting they find "Fat Reggie", Mr. Steele's supposed nemesis, to "find out what's up", thus strongly suggesting that they've all learned exactly nothing from this or else a do-over and redemption is what Ethan is after. Who knows?
Your pain is our pain, Mike Baron.
Now that Steele has taken another go and may do so again, I suppose JACK Show / Frog may yet come at this with more vim and vigor. After all, Cecil has still been absent from the proceedings with EVS present as well so the "storyline" is still evolving. But evolving to what? Steele seemed to be quite enchanted with Anna and her big dumb plastic bimbo tits (perfectly understandable) and not much new ground was really covered so perhaps this will instead lead to détente. Either way, it's all but a work at this point. The numbers are in and if we've learned anything from Mr. Steele, it's that men lie, women like, but the numbers don't.
Misc
In other news, relations between FNT and CG went from freezing, to 33-degrees then back down to freezing as on last night's FNT (somewhere... in there...) Jeremy from Geeks Plus Gamers made exceedingly slight mention of CG as "independent creators" worth recognizing (while Gary pretended to be distracted). But the brief and subtle thawing of relations was short-lived as Gary then closed-out the stream by replacing his innocuously wholesome "Not all who wander..." catchphrase with a return of his I'm-not-mad-at-all slogan "not a zero among them" [insert psychotic stare]. Not sure if he's always been doing this as it's been a long while since I had actually sat through the entirety of any of the many cringe-inducing, disingenuous, superchat-harvesting-on-the-backs-of-the-disaffected-demoralized-and-lonely streams he hosts. If it's unusual, this may be in response to EVS having started
a rival stream on Friday night (the above-mentioned STEELEWORLDWIDE efapping), kicking it off with a return of one of the now-deleted-from-the-net Deadwood Dale classic "George!" videos. This anti-ecumenical approach by Frog will of course be dropped by tomorrow as he decides to again shift gears and go in another direction / focus on something else / eschew drama with his channel.
Edit:
Fixed a missing clip
