poem once again if you place an order just write in the gift area poem and I will write you a psycho poem they are they got really chaotic last year now as most of you probably already know about a month ago I covered the news of conservative commentator Brett Cooper leaving her show at the conservative Media Company the daily wire and if you you watched that video you know that I express some opinions but it's been a little while now so I thought that we would check back in and see what's going on just have
a little look see at how the channel is doing oh that is uh that is unfortunate jokes aside when I last talked about this I said in no uncertain terms that I am of the opinion that daily wire have set Reagan Conrad the new host of the comment section up for abject failure regard regardless if she did anything to Brett or not and I really think at least for now that I am 100% right I love being right although you don't really have to be an internet scientist to see that this was always going to
be a train wreck over the last month the channel has continued to bleed subscribers and the channel views are way down then people discovered Reagan's previous YouTube channel and this obviously didn't help the accusations that she's been trained to act like Brett then Reagan's cousin Riley Conrad made a spicy Tik Tok video that's since been deleted blaming Brett for the disdain that her cousin is facing then a mysterious redditor who reportedly works for the daily wire outed a bunch of information about the situation and only a few days ago because we had to top this
off with something so absurd that I don't know why it happened the daily wire's own CEO Jeremy boring discussed Brett and Reagan in a Q&A video on the company's website so safe to say a lot has happened in the last little while and if I'm being honest none of this at all has helped it's only accelerated the show's downward cycle what can I say 2025 is off to a raring good start so to recap for those of you who weren't aware Brett kooper is a 20-some year- old conservative commentator who was the host of the
show the comment section in the last few years the channel has gained millions of subscribers and Brett grew a really dedicated fan base but very recently Brett announced more or less out of nowhere that her time at the daily wire was over and she was moving on in this hostage situation video once again Brett blink if you need some help in this process and for whatever reason daily wire decided to replace Brett with her former best friend and producer Reagan Conrad Brett has since unfollowed Reagan on socials we all we all know what that means
as well as unfollowing daily wire CEO Jeremy boring there are also and were also many rumors surrounding this including that Reagan was taking acting acting what acting lessons to mimic Brett's style and delivery in taking over the show now for whatever reason I have developed a bit of a vested interest in this case mostly I think because watching the comment section right now feels like a little bit of a a a a car CR I can't speak English watching the comment section now feels like a little bit of a car crash and I have a
tendency to just not be able to look away and it's not because r in and of herself is necessarily a bad host although on that front it's kind of hard for me to comment because this is not the sort of content that I typically consume cuz I'm typically over here watching Mr Bolan and lore lodge because I like to bathe my brain in Mysteries but as a YouTuber who has been around on this platform for a number of years it is really interesting to me to observe someone else's Channel crash and burn this hard this
quickly and like I've probably titled this video it's like watching somebody speedrun their own destruction I do have to make note of this too because I don't want anybody to misunderstand I'm not talking about this again and making this video to be gleeful about what's happening to this woman and this show and the daily wire I don't really have any emotional investment in this I'm just interested I'm like I'm Like a Surgeon cutting into a dead body and being like that's a hot so yeah I just want to preempt that for the people who are
like oh you're you're being unkind possibly but it's it's not the primary intention I'm just interested what do you want from me speaking of things that you all want from me I know what I want to do for you and that is tell you about today's sponsor fume it's New Year which means that it's time for a new year I don't want to do any selfimprovement yes yes you do go to the gym it's finally time to leave behind all your bad habits especially the inhaling related ones and it's never been easier thanks to fume

think I'd be remiss if I didn't say that a larger portion of people than you realize actually really enjoy watching the downfall of an Internet personality it's sort of comparable to what I imagine the Coliseum used to be like or everybody packs in and is so amped up about this incoming bloodletting humans really haven't changed a whole lot in thousands of years I will be sad when an asteroid inevitably takes us out but I I think we probably will have earned it anyway I think that's partially what we are seeing in action here this Collective
punishment event this Collective punishing event especially when you consider that people become very defensive of the favorite internet personalities and the people that they show up for regularly would you guys defend my honor I hope you would I know I always say this isn't a cult but we could we we could be one Reagan's video views are also horrific compared to the hundreds of thousands of views that Brett would pull in a single video when I say horrific I mean Brett was averaging somewhere in the realm of at least 300,000 views a video I think
the lowest that I saw was 150,000 views but most pieces of content that she put out were between half a million to a million views which is it's it's good you know it's good for a channel this size that also uploads basically every day Reagan on the other hand is getting anywhere from 20,000 to 50,000 views with a Channel of again 4 million subscribers in YouTube land this is this is not good like I said before YouTube channels especially are built around personality there isn't really any room to Simply copy and paste someone into a
new show and expected to work the same way as before so while daily wire might own the show they might own the content and might have wanted to salvage the idea which again I don't blame them for well replacing Brett was just never going to work out and I don't know if they foresaw that being the case shows become synonymous over time with their hosts I I think all of us can admit that especially when that person has been doing the same show and hosting the same show for literally years and when fans believe that
their favorite host is being slighted or hurt in some way they will act accordingly towards whoever comes next I just fundamentally think this was such a weird move for the daily ya and I don't believe for a second that they couldn't foresee this happening I have been lurking the Brett Koopa subreddit yes hello guys I see you for the last number of weeks and I even find it really interesting within Brett's own fan base how people either either feel like Reagan fully betrayed her and therefore this downfall is warranted and necessary in a way but
then there's also this other group of people who feel empathy for Reagan and are not 100% on board with what she may or may not have done to Brett and then they also feel like this downfall is just a really sad net effect of terrible decision-making on the part of the company employing these women or used to be employing these women or used to be employing one of these women so imagine all of our shock and surprise when daily wire's own CEO decided to weigh in on the situation during a Q&A session for members I
think Jeremy boring made some very interesting claims about the situation such as the reason Reagan behaves like Brett and has her mannerisms and whatnot is not because she was giving acting lessons but because they were best friends and Reagan has worked on this show for so long so you know some of the accusations against Reagan have been really ugly like that that she's impersonating Brett well that's unfair if if Reagan seems a bit like Brett it's because she's Brett's best friend and one of the writers and the producer of the show she's worked as much
on the show every day on what the show would look like and feel like and sound like as Brett has for these last two years they've done that together obviously they have a lot in common in terms of their delivery because they have helped craft the show together boring also seemingly throws some shade at bread here and I might be reading into it but other people seem to perceive this uh this way as well by saying that he never sent Reagan to acting lessons but he did have to send Brett to various performance-based classes for
the various things that she was working on which like actually makes uh total sense there that's that's I think that's very normal for actors and actresses it's actually ironic because I did send Brett to various kinds of lessons as a performer not acting lessons Brett's a terrific actress and always the entire time I've known her she has been as will be evident when you see the pin dragon cycle but I did send her to dancing lessons and singing lessons in preparation for her role at Snow White I sent her to dialogue coaching sessions where this
gets even weirder at least to me is boring stated that it hurts his feelings that Brett hasn't defended Reagan in all of this claiming that Brett was the person who recommended Reagan in the first place and it and it's hurt my feelings a little bit that Brett hasn't done more to defend her friend Reagan you know Brett chose to leave the show it was her idea her her stated desire to leave the show and to leave the company she had personally recommended rean to me boring finishes off by saying that the attacks on Reagan are
basically crafted by Outsiders who want the daily wre to fail not because people are genuinely pissed off about what happened here oh it's uh it's like that huh I feel like I look like Alva today but the wish version now a few things here number one and maybe the most most importantly there's nothing wrong with defending your people I actually completely support that but that doesn't make this video any less weird or his comments any less weird and most importantly it doesn't help this situation and it only adds to this speedrun of self-destruction because it
demonstrates that the highest person at this company is also shrugging off the legitimate concerns of viewers and all that does is a road trust not to mention boring video borderlines throwing Brett under the bus Which again if you're trying to ameliorate a situation this is uh this is not the way to do it like of all the things you could have done or said about this situation this this is what gets added this maybe I don't get it maybe it's because I'm not a CEO of a major company and call myself a god king I'm
just kidding guys you don't have to scream at me in the comments except I'm not kidding at all another sort of weird observation that I'd like to make here that might honestly legitimately be completely off base is that these comments feel to me to be agreed upon ahead of time uh like they're they're prepackaged in a way why do I say that you might be asking because almost word for word this is precisely what Riley Conrad Reagan's alleged cousin said in her own video about this that she posted to Tik Tok and then promptly deleted
why did why do these people always delet delete everything Riley Conrad made the same claims that Reagan acts like Brett because they're best friends that Brett suggested Reagan as her initial replacement everybody's accusing her of having acting classes I can tell you that is how Reagan's always been that's how she's always spoken yes maybe they have some of the same mannerisms they've been best friends who of you has a best friend and doesn't start kind of talking like them you usually have the same lingo so the acting classes rumor it's just that it's a rumor
rean has never had acting classes she literally just does speak that way that's how she is if I found the same item in like a TJ Maxx would I buy it and typically if the answer is no then that means that I should not buy it in a Goodwill just because it's thrifted this is me kind of going through this a bit blind because I didn't get to try any of this stuff on so I really don't know what fits suddenly they are treating our first and second families like American royalty or Celebrity Status which
for conservatives is shocking and hasn't been seen in a very long while here's one of the posts from Oscar de lorenta whether Josh's transition was authentic and the more we looked into the story and into him the Wilder the entire thing got seeing as we are a cat now you guys will just believe what I tell you to believe listen to your supreme leader you only really need to look at Reagan's old content to see how she previously behaved her mannerisms and so on and at least in my opinion it wasn't like she acts now
not to mention Brett herself told The Spectator that she did not suggest Reagan for this role so the question is who do we believe the person directly involved here Brett or do we believe our own eyes watching Reagan's previous content or do we believe the company that's in damage control do you ever have those moments where you're just thinking this is all so dumb I also have to comment on how icky it is that Jeremy boring and Riley Conrad have both made comments saying that Brett you know should say something about this situation and step
up and defend Reagan probably knowing full well that she can't do that obviously I don't know the details of her NDA but if these other people are suggesting that she should say something knowing full well that she's unable that's just it's just asinine I don't I don't know how else to put it it's just depressingly on brand for the media industry so I don't know do with that information what you will also additional side note and I'm not super sure if this is relevant but I don't know I found it interesting so I'm going to
include it apparently Riley con has been copyright claiming the use of her deleted Tik Tok about this a smaller Channel called Echo from above said that he got a copyright notification from YouTube and YouTube actually backed him because using this girl's video is considered fair use which it is that's true I also saw a post from my children over at the Brett Cooper subreddit where Reddit even deleted this video due to copyright oh no I don't believe it Reddit is just so well known for protecting Free Speech this copyright situation could be NDA related I
honestly have no idea or it could be a coordinated effort to get the original coordinated thoughts off of the internet so that when Jeremy made his video talking about it it appeared very authentic and original well I drank my conspiracy juice today did you anyway the last thing that I want to make note of is a post that was made on Reddit that has since been deleted why do you people delete everything it basically quot out Jeremy boring as an egocentric Maniac defended Brett Koopa and suggested that Reagan had in fact stabbed her in the
back the poster also writes like they presently work for the daily wire but even with that in mind I still want you to take this with an enormous grain of salt because this is still basically an anonymous post on a social media platform that's now been deleted anyway the author who I'm going to call Mr associate so it's less confusing makes the claim that Brett was back stabbed that she left not for financial reasons like a lot of people seem to think but because of management and that the daily ya has insane non-competes for everyone
not just talent and for those of you who aren't aware don't know what that is a non-compete is basically a legal protection that prevents an employee from working for a competing company or starting their own similar company/ business within a specific time period or location SL area after leaving their existing job and and uh these are actually really common across many Industries this isn't just a media thing so I really wouldn't read too much into that Mr associate also paints Jeremy boring as a bit of an egomaniac who believes that he can make or break
people build their careers or destroy their careers which again really lines up with other things that I've been told privately by former staff and just to be clear the people who have told me things these are not people who really have any sort of Acts to grind they're not mad they're not trying to be spiteful they just are speaking to the work culture that they experienced while at this particular company and yes I am acutely aware that not everybody likes the place that they work at no workplace is perfect I'm sure everybody has something to
say about you know the place that employs them but I just think it's interesting I just think it's interesting when repeated thoughts and ideas come from different people about the same thing over and over and over again so also for the people who are steadfast in the belief that for Brett all of this has been about money I have it on good authority that it isn't but more than that in a live stream from early 2023 Brett even said herself that she thought the daily wire paid her very generously and she was surprised by appreciative
of but didn't expect the pay bump that they gave her when her show started taking off this live stream is also very long so I'm not going to try to summarize it but a couple key points that stood out to me is Brett basically expressing a lot of admiration for the other hosts at the company as well as saying that she isn't someone who will compromise herself for money Integrity is very important to her and honestly during this live stream she comes off as really authentic and truthful so again I think this video is an
interesting watch if you are looking at it after all this drama has unfolded so back to my original point in my opinion every action that has seemingly been taken and all the drama surrounding this has made the downfall of this show worse and worse as far as Reagan goes if you're in the backstabbing Camp then I have to imagine that it's pretty satisfying to watch somebody who's potentially a bad person fail and that failure is partially because she participated in hurting a friend and colleague just so that she could get ahead she is currently riding
that friend's coattails she is currently profiting off of something that she didn't build and and that has got to be frustrating for a lot of people if you fall into the daily wire didn't handle this correctly and didn't pursue this correctly Camp then it's also pretty easy to feel bad for Reagan as well the daily wire obviously should have coordinated this a lot better because if Brett was in fact amicable with everybody on her way out and if she was cool with her departure then doing this so abruptly was always going to alarm her audience
and roll a bunch of people around to the idea that she wasn't leaving on good terms which obviously we know to be the case if daily wire were so intent on maintaining the comment section Channel because that's probably what's guiding this is the fact that it's a 4 million or used to be closer to five million subscriber Channel which is very valuable if they were so intent on keeping this then this situation should have been slow roll we should have been able to see Brett and Reagan interacting warm people up to the IDE a of
a new host and then Brett could have had a passing the torch episode with the new host or Reagan or whoever and then said goodbye and been on her Merry way and people probably would have received it a lot better than how they're receiving it now but that didn't happen because it couldn't because the poopies have hit the fan and knowing the poopies were going to hit the fan and then stay on the fan or the Roomba if you guys like that better that's a lot messier than the fan then Reagan probably should have been
given her own show let her start everything and build it from the ground up let her build her own audience not just take over somebody else's and think that you can just copy paste somebody and have it work out if the woman is blameless let her start by not having to live in someone else's Shadow but again if she did some shady stuff then maybe some of this is just Karma you know just karma coming along and punching punching you in the face ultimately although we are in a cult now I actually can't tell you
which perspective is the right one you you guys have to work that out for yourselves of course what I can say though is that I think the writing with this show is kind of on the wall and uh a lot of this kind of just feels Dead on Arrival and even when this initial anger and all these negative feelings around this situation dissipate from a lot of viewers this show will just not quite recover it won't ever be what it was when Brett was at the home everyone with half a brain should have seen this
coming and everyone with a full brain should have handled this a lot better in the end I will probably continue to be a very curious onlooker like many of you but I don't foresee this getting any better anytime soon now before I open the floor to all of you this is just a reminder check out f using the link in the description or scanning the QR code on screen when you do and use code Sydney you will get a free fume topper when you order a journey pack I love fume they've been a longtime friend
of the channel go check them out and go show them some love now I open the floor to all of you what do you all think are you of the opinion that maybe this is a little bit of karmic Justice being played out are you of the opinion that everybody in this situation is kind of being kicked in the face because there was some really poor planning and decision-making around this do you think that Reagan is in the wrong that Brett is in the wrong what do you make of Jeremy boring commentary on this was
it inappropriate was it appropriate should he be doing and saying these kind kind of things and what you generally make of this issue overall as always if you have made it this far in the video congratulations I always like having you along for the full ride if you are new here and you are not subscribed already and you would like to see more of me and more of this kind of content feel free to subscribe to the channel as well as leaving this video a like and a comment because I do read the majority of
