SPEAKER_02 3:50

Let's go. So Casper, I won't hold you up. I I I know a little bit about you, but for those that are in chat, tell us a little bit about yourself.

SPEAKER_00 4:01

Oh boy. Um well I always uh like do really bad answering this question when I'm in like job interviews and stuff. So um the bare bare bones of who I am is I am a streamer. I love video games. I have a dog, Zorro. I don't know if you'll be able to see him because he's like laying down in the back. But he's like the biggest part of the streams. Um I am just like a goofy, silly girl. That's that's about it.

SPEAKER_02 4:35

Yes, the doggy is a good part of the stream. We love the dog, and we always call you out when the puppy dog is not shown. And I like when you called his name, he popped up and said, Alright, I'm here. Yeah, he did.

SPEAKER_00 4:49

Well, he expects everyone, like when I get sit down to stream, he knows because I have the point redemption to like give him a treat. And every time I sit down, that's that's like the first point redemption they do, like everyone in chat. So he knows, like as soon as I sit down, turn the lights on, he's like, Oh, I'm getting treats right now.

SPEAKER_02 5:07

So which is the goodest of boys, you know. I I know I'm gonna get a treat, and all I gotta do is just lay here. Chat's got my back.

SPEAKER_00 5:18

Exactly, exactly.

SPEAKER_01 5:21

So, Ms.

SPEAKER_02 5:22

Casper, where did you come up with your stream name? How did you come up with your name?

SPEAKER_00 5:27

So, uh back in California, when I lived in California, um, I was an artist. Um, so I sold art, I made art, and I went by the name Casper um then as an artist because Casper sounds like Cass, which is my name, and it's ghostly and like spooky, and I love scary things and like horror and stuff, so it just fit. Yeah, that's basically it.

SPEAKER_02 5:58

Well, and we can't catch you playing any horror games without begging or anything, huh? Even though you like the spooky stuff, every time I see you live, it's always Valorant or Counter-Strike. Very seldom do I see you playing, you know, uh a horror game.

SPEAKER_00 6:15

So Yeah, see the thing is like I I get scared.

SPEAKER_02 6:23

Well, it's not called horror if you you know what? We're we're not even gonna we're we're just gonna keep on doing on that one.

SPEAKER_00 6:32

I'll I'll I'll I'll get better. I'll get better. So I'm not giving him a treat.

SPEAKER_02 6:41

No, we chat chat called it. Chat wants a treat.

SPEAKER_00 6:46

I don't have his treats with me right now.

SPEAKER_02 6:48

But you knew you were gonna be on stream. That is false advertisement. You can't sit right here and say that yeah, as soon as I sit down, he knows I get a he's gonna get a treat.

SPEAKER_00 6:58

Okay, okay. Let me let me give him one. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 7:00

So we're I thought you I thought you said you didn't have him.

SPEAKER_00 7:03

I'm giving him a piece of my fruit. It's a piece of my fruit, chat. I'm doing this for him. Keep going.

SPEAKER_02 7:11

I don't even know if he likes that fruit, but last time she played Faz, someone almost had an accident.

SPEAKER_07 7:18

Who talking about Liv?

SPEAKER_02 7:23

Well, it it wasn't me, I promise. I used the bathroom before we started playing Faz.

SPEAKER_07 7:30

I was fine. I think Liv got scared. So what got you into streaming?

SPEAKER_00 7:40

Honestly, my just my love for video games and like wanting to build a community because uh Man, you're gonna get me to cry again, cry already. Um I spent like my entire life pretty much like you know, on my own, like doing my own thing. I didn't have siblings like growing up and I like craved being able to build a community where people share the same passions and interests and things like that. And um if I was able to facilitate that, that was that was what I wanted to do. Um, and I was already playing video games all day, every day, so I was like, I might as well try it. And I did.

SPEAKER_02 8:31

And now here you is making a great community both on on on multiple platforms, not just this one, but multiples. Yeah, we'll get to that a little later. I ain't I ain't gonna jump the gun. We'll we'll we'll wait to that one. We'll get to we'll wait to that one. Don't make her cry.

SPEAKER_01 8:48

No, Alicia. Alright, alright. Alicia says we can't make you cry. Okay, okay. So how long have you streamed for?

SPEAKER_00 8:59

I have been streaming well, okay. So I streamed back in 2017 on Twitch for about like a year, and then I gave up on it because streaming is hard. I gave up on it, and then I came back to it in October last year.

SPEAKER_07 9:19

And I've stayed. Yep, here I am.

SPEAKER_02 9:25

So what did you do in that that little break in between? Like did you still continue playing video games, or did we have to, you know, be an adult and go get a job and of course I was still playing video games, but I was working.

SPEAKER_00 9:43

Um, so I spent many years working in hospitals um as a nurse, uh, psych hospitals and um kids with autism, like autism centers and things like that. So that was like the main job that I had in between. Of course, like while I was going to nursing school and things like that, I was working in sales and marketing. Um, and I was still doing my art as well uh during that time. So that was pretty much it.

SPEAKER_02 10:11

Look at you being a W medical field person and taking care of the kids and just looking out and being an amazing person.

SPEAKER_00 10:20

Oh, thank you.

SPEAKER_02 10:26

Just add to your already awesome resume. I see how it is.

SPEAKER_00 10:33

Oh yeah, King used King. So King in chat, I've known him since like before I was streaming. Uh I met him on lockdown protocol. That's what he's talking about. Hi Mat.

SPEAKER_02 10:48

Just so so uh I'm at like come on, sad excited. We got people in here saying hi.

SPEAKER_01 10:56

I don't know, Matt. Hi Matt! How you doing, buddy? Welcome in, welcome in.

SPEAKER_00 11:01

There you go, there you go.

SPEAKER_02 11:05

So this this is where I was trying not to jump ahead because uh uh I saw it when I was asking you the previous question. So what platforms do you stream to or post to other than Twitch?

SPEAKER_00 11:19

Uh right now, other than Twitch, it's TikTok, and I recently started uploading VODs to YouTube. Um I am going to also figure out how to stream on YouTube as well, but right now it's just Twitch and TikTok for streaming. I also have an Instagram, but I don't I'm not very active on it.

SPEAKER_02 11:38

Yeah, Instagram seems to be like that it's you know it's there, but you forget it's there. Like I remember when it was like really, really big back in the day, and now it's just like I have it too, and I'm just like oh, yeah, I could uh yeah, I do need to post on that too, don't I?

SPEAKER_00 11:56

Yeah. It's hard to remember all the the different platforms to post on and what to post, especially for Instagram because it's just like photo. Oh, I guess you could do reels too, but it's just different.

SPEAKER_02 12:09

Yeah, it is. I remember like I said, I remember when like Instagram was the Instagram was the TikTok back in the day. So I'm sure my age now. So what kind of games do you stream or what's your favorite type of gaming?

SPEAKER_00 12:29

I would say my favorite type of gaming is FPS. Um main ones for stream are Valorant, Counter Strike. Um, I've been getting into League and Marvel Rivals as well. Um for scary games, I've been going through the Resident Evil Red. Can I speak? Resident Evil franchise. Um that's been fun. Um also Dead by Daylight, Phasmophobia, but the main ones are Valorant, Counter-Strike. Um, yeah. And the other ones I'm getting into, like the hero shooters and stuff.

SPEAKER_02 13:04

So on the opposite hand of that, do you have a type of game that you will not play? Like, nope, can't pay me enough money, I'm never gonna play it. What what does that type of game look like?

SPEAKER_00 13:16

Well, I tried dispatch one time, and that wasn't for me. Like, game I guess like but I don't even know what you would categorize that game. Um, I would probably say I'm not playing GTA. I'm sorry guys. I'm not gonna play GTA either. Yeah, I'm not I'm not doing it. That's my that's my answer.

SPEAKER_01 13:42

What? No GTA?

SPEAKER_00 13:44

No GTA. Not doing GTA or I'm and I'm not playing Uno on stream. Oh no, no, no, no. I don't like Rocket League either. I don't like it.

SPEAKER_02 14:02

Yeah, I've never played it. It always looked like it'd be one of those games that looks interesting to play, but I feel like I rage so much that I would I would not do very well in it.

SPEAKER_00 14:13

Yeah, it's it's too hard for me because I'm on mouse and keyboard, so like Rocket League on mouse and key is like so hard.

SPEAKER_02 14:20

That's why most people I hear play it uh with controller, but I don't like controller, so she says Rocket League is hard to play, but she plays first person shooters. And the cool thing about Cass's setup, if you guys have never caught it, she has a display in the bottom of her corner where it shows the keys highlighted when she's you know when she hits a certain key. And I'd be sitting there watching, especially if she's in a bat like in a heated battle, like it's like a a a Christmas tree, like all the keys are just lighting up like the fourth of July, and I'm just like okay, yeah, have fun. Okay, you know, I can't do that.

SPEAKER_00 14:58

It's really satisfying to watch.

SPEAKER_02 15:00

It is, it is. I and I find myself watching the keys more than I, you know, watch the actual gameplay because uh, you know, hey, little shiny light. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 15:14

So if you're comfortable answering this, what do you do for a living?

SPEAKER_07 15:20

I stream.

SPEAKER_00 15:22

That's that's all I do. That is that is my main thing, my full-time thing. Not not a very uh intricate answer, but I've been doing uh full-time streaming since October since I started, so yeah.

SPEAKER_03 15:43

Well look you there, look you there.

SPEAKER_02 15:44

I want to be like you and I grow up. Just sit on video games all day.

unknown 15:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 15:52

Oh yeah, I know it is for sure.

SPEAKER_00 15:54

There there's more to it. You gotta, you know, build the community, make sure OBS is good, all the technical stuff. The technical stuff takes me forever. Like it that takes m most of my time.

SPEAKER_02 16:06

Yeah, as I'm finding out as we're sitting here live streaming this, I'm just I'm just keep looking over and I see so much the chat wasn't working to begin with, so I've been sitting here trying to get the chat to scroll on screen. And then in the midst of me trying to do that, I've been clicking on your camera and your overlay and my camera and moving that. I'm just like, oh my gosh, it's never so much. And and like I said, I promise I tried to have this working and and looking good before we went live. So you don't have to go into like internal details or anything like this, but what does your current setup look like for streaming? Like your camera, your mic, like monitors. What's that?

SPEAKER_00 16:51

Like you want the specs?

SPEAKER_02 16:52

You don't have to give us the specs. Like, do you how many monitors you have, like the brand mic you use, just just something simple like that.

SPEAKER_00 16:59

Yeah. Uh so I have three monitors. Um one is the my main monitor is an OLED monitor, um, like an Asus OLED monitor. The other two are just like generic Dell monitors for like chat, OBS, things like that. I have three cameras, but I should be I should have four. Normally I have four cameras. Um I have this camera that you guys are looking at, which is like my just chatting camera, and then I have my gameplay camera, which is my Fuji film like camera, and then I have my Pokemon card camera, and then I have a Zoro cam that I switch to. My mic is a sure SM7B. I have the Scarlet uh audio interface. Um, what else? Um, I use a Stream Deck for all my scenes. My keyboard is a 30% keyboard from Ajax. I'll try to show it if I can get the cord. This is it, it's beautiful.

SPEAKER_07 18:00

Um, but yeah. That's my setup.

SPEAKER_03 18:04

Oh, fancy. Fancy.

SPEAKER_00 18:10

The cameras give me a lot of issues, but it's okay.

SPEAKER_02 18:13

I have enough issues with one camera I couldn't imagine doing four. So big props to you, friends.

SPEAKER_00 18:20

It's a lot, it's a lot. But it's okay. That's part of it.

SPEAKER_02 18:28

Yeah, you know, like we said earlier, it's not a good stream without some tech issues, alright?

SPEAKER_00 18:33

Yep, exactly.

SPEAKER_02 18:35

I should get that put on a shirt and made it as on a shirt.

SPEAKER_00 18:39

You should.

SPEAKER_02 18:42

So what does your stream schedule normally look like? Like, how often do you try to stream weekly?

SPEAKER_00 18:47

I try to stream at least six days a week. Um, the schedule has been kind of changing a little bit. I'm trying to hone in like exactly what works. Um, but I've had some some life stuff going on this past month, um, which kind of made made it a little bit harder to get the schedule right, but now it's gonna be six days a week. I usually stream at like six or seven p.m. every day uh central standard time.

SPEAKER_02 19:14

Y'all heard that? Be sure to go check her out. 6 p.m. Central Standard Time. And she plays all night like all night long.

SPEAKER_00 19:22

I do until I like can't keep my eyes open essentially.

SPEAKER_02 19:27

King said, like I said, it's the cast effects. Hey So you know when you have that first time chatter come in, you know, they got it. Exp uh especially on Twitch, because I know TikTok's different, but on Twitch you have that you know, they have to agree with the little rules set up that you have. So, what are some ground rules for your chat or channel for someone new coming in, or something that your mods should be looking out for that new chatter?

SPEAKER_00 19:57

Of course. So TikTok and Twitch are definitely two separate entities when it comes to this kind of stuff because TikTok is wild sometimes in chat. I love everybody, but TikTok gets a little crazy. Um, but for both chats, I just want everyone to be respectful to each other, um, be respectful to me, don't say any dirty stuff, which happens all the time on TikTok. But my mods are pretty good about like monitoring it and making sure that no one's getting out of hand, saying inappropriate things. Um, and that's really it. Just be nice to people, don't start fights, um be nice to me and everybody. Yeah, yeah, nomad is the is the dirty one for sure.

SPEAKER_03 20:43

Well then, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_02 20:47

I mean, at least they owned up to it. It was me.

SPEAKER_00 20:51

It was put into play because of me.

SPEAKER_02 20:54

We stay wild on TikTok, says King.

SPEAKER_00 20:57

Yeah, everyone they yeah now I agree.

SPEAKER_02 21:02

I I have I've hyped you up as the TikTok streamer because, like I said I beforehand, um, I know you mainly do TikTok over Twitch. That's actually how I found you was TikTok. So what has been your experience if you were to compare the two hand in hand, which one would you prefer streaming on?

SPEAKER_00 21:25

This is a loaded question bullet, because I I love TikTok so much, I love Twitch so much, but TikTok is the reason I have my community. TikTok has literally built my like brought the people to me to like be able to build my community. So I'm grateful for it. Um I love TikTok because it does push you out. Like you people you'll be people will be scrolling and they just you pop up on their for you page. Like they don't have to search for you, they don't have to look for a specific game. Um, and I think that's Has helped me because I want to be a variety streamer, I want to play different games, and if people are finding me in staying just for me and my personality and the community and like the laughs and everything, then that's what I care about more. Whereas Twitch, people are gonna be looking for the specific game, you know. So I think it I honestly think it builds more people that stay long term, if that makes sense, because they're coming for the streamer, not the game.

SPEAKER_02 22:33

I would uh uh I would say I agree with that because I'm I'd I'm not sure because like I said, I'm I don't really stream TikTok, but I definitely agree, like you said, with the you're just randomly scrolling and you see you see Faz one game and then you see Counter-Strike the next game, and then you see uh you know Fortnite the next game, and it's it's just a variety. And like you said, as Twitch, you have you know you're looking for a specific game. Exactly. Yeah, we have our first question from chat. Snacks asks, what are some tips you would give someone just getting started on TikTok?

SPEAKER_00 23:09

On TikTok, I would definitely, definitely say, and I'm sure I'm gonna sound like a broken record, but do not pay attention to, and bullet, you and I talked about this briefly, like when people come and go, like they'll come into the chat and then you can tell that they left. A lot of the time, like what a misconception of TikTok is when an account is private and they pop into the TikTok live, you won't know if they're there or not. So you have to act as if they're still there. Everyone's like there's more people there than you think. Um, I would say that's the biggest hurdle to get over because TikTok does kind of put it in your face, like how many people are watching you at that time and things like that. But yeah, that and stay on top of your chat, um, like responding to chats as soon as you can, because people on TikTok they have sometimes shorter attention spans, so you gotta like you know, be quick talking to them, creating the conversations. Um, otherwise they'll just keep scrolling. So that's my my two biggest tips for TikTok. And it has helped it's helped me immensely.

SPEAKER_02 24:18

Next is that makes sense. Yeah, I always act like someone is watching exactly. Yep, and even if that's just me, you you're just talking to yourself. I mean, I do that on a regular basis anyway. Just make it interesting talking to yourself, you know. But yeah, but yeah, it's like like I said, you know, that's that's how I discovered you was through TikTok. I was just doom scrolling and I don't remember what you were playing. I don't it wasn't Valorant or Counter Strike, it was some maybe it was Dead by Daylight. The one and only the one and only time I've seen you play a horror game was I think was Dead by Daylight. And just the way you were interacting with, you know, the chat and you know, taking the time to even stop. Like if you were like on a hook or something, you know, you would just solely focus on talking to chat and getting to know them and interacting with them. And even when you were being, you know, chased, you would take the time to say, All right, guys, I I see y'all just just hold on one second, and then yeah, you get to where you were to a safe point, and then you catch up on chat, and you make sure to read like everything. And yeah, I make it my personal mission every time I come into your chat to wait until you're locked in. Because, like you said, you know when it it tells you when somebody comes into chat, and I'm sitting there, I'm like, all right, she's not paying attention. Maybe I can just sneak in and I want to see how long I can go undetected. I think my record's like four minutes, so that's crazy. And then I catch her on because she's like, Oh, bullet, you are in here.

SPEAKER_01 25:45

I was like, Yes, undetected, let's go.

SPEAKER_00 25:48

Yeah, there was a point where on Twitch I had it, I had a setting turned. I forget how I did it, I have to look at it, but I made it so that I could see when people join on Twitch, and that's how I was catching you a lot of the times on Twitch too, because like I got a notification for Twitch. But yeah, I mean, back to what you were saying about like just communicating with chat and like being on top of it, because it again, like back to what I was saying, like that's why I stream is to talk with you guys and build the connections and conversations and things like that. So I don't care about the game, like you know, the game could I could go afk and talk to you guys, so I understand the Nixons love you bullet.

SPEAKER_02 26:31

Well, I appreciate that, Ty. Welcome in, welcome in. Um, snacks, we have that question later on down the road, down the list, I should say. Uh King said, Who is your favorite person in the community or biggest contributor?

SPEAKER_00 26:45

I am not answering that question, King. My favorite person here. My favorite person in the community is myself. I love that. Or Zoro.

SPEAKER_02 26:55

There you go.

SPEAKER_00 26:56

Zoro's my favorite.

SPEAKER_02 26:59

Good answer, good answer. Like they do on family things. Good answer, good answer. So, what would you say is a big pet peeve of yours during stream?

SPEAKER_00 27:16

That's tough. Like with chat or with myself?

SPEAKER_02 27:20

In general, it's just uh what is a big pet peeve of yours during stream?

SPEAKER_00 27:26

I would say uh a big pet peeve of mine is when people come into chat that are new or whatever, and like say outlandish things, and then sometimes like fights happen in chat, and that's probably my biggest pet peeve because it hurt it hurts me like when people are fighting and I'm trying to like calm the situation down, but also like maintain the stream and games and things like that. I would say that's the biggest thing. Um and tech issues, we we hate tech issues so much.

SPEAKER_02 28:05

You almost missed episode. We love tech issues. I heard to catch up.

SPEAKER_01 28:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 28:13

Let's see what what do we have over here in chat saying? Snack says, Is there a plan to ask about the username? I'd love to hear the story behind it. She has answered that, but if you want to answer it again, Casper, go right ahead.

SPEAKER_00 28:25

What was the question? I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02 28:27

The uh the story for the username.

SPEAKER_00 28:29

Oh, yeah. So um back in the day when I lived in California, I was an artist. I made art, sold art, things like that, and my like artist name was Casper, and I carried it over to gaming, obviously, but Cass is short or mine it works for my name, which is Cass. And Casper is like the ghost, which is like spooky, scary, horror-esque. And I love scary stuff, so that's how it came.

SPEAKER_02 28:58

She doesn't play scary stuff on stream. I do, I do. I will always troll you on that. Okay, I'll be your biggest pet feed for that, okay? Okay. My fault for missing 20 minutes. You are fine, Snacks. You are here. Let's you that's all that matters, Frank. You are here. Thank you guys for all the follows. I see you all. Thank y'all, thank y'all. Uh yeah, that's very cool. I love the name, says Snacks.

SPEAKER_00 29:26

Thank you.

SPEAKER_02 29:27

Did you oh we have done scroll down? Oh, okay. So if you can remember, uh what was the first game you did stream? I'll even make it challenging back in 2017.

SPEAKER_00 29:39

Oh, in 2017 it was Dead by Daylight. I only streamed Dead by Daylight back in the day.

SPEAKER_02 29:44

And now we gotta sacrifice Good and you know, have written contracts and everything like this just to get a little bit of a yeah, but my first game when I came back was actually Battlefield.

SPEAKER_00 29:56

I started uh on Battlefield.

SPEAKER_03 30:00

Let's go.

SPEAKER_00 30:01

Yep, yep.

SPEAKER_02 30:04

Uh Snacks, we have that one cued. I believe you were the one that asked that the last time that I put on the the cued list. But we have you, Snacks. But since it's right here, actually, um, what is a game you wish you could play for the first time again?

SPEAKER_00 30:18

Ooh, a game I can play for the first time again. Um Mortuary Assistant. I wit like I loved that game so much, and like now I've just become like desensitized to it, but it was so good, like the first like few times or few rounds of it. It's so good. Um yeah, I would like borderline say some of the resident evils, but I'm still like getting through them, so I can't fully answer with that. But yeah, Ortuary Assistant is a good one.

SPEAKER_02 30:50

Have you gotten all what is it, five, six endings?

SPEAKER_00 30:54

I have it sucks. I wish there was more.

SPEAKER_02 30:59

Have you seen the movie yet?

SPEAKER_00 31:01

No, I was actually looking um for a movie last night and I saw it, and I was like, it was like you could pay like five dollars to like rent it. I was like, never mind, I'll wait.

SPEAKER_02 31:12

But it I do want to watch it. I had read somewhere that they were contemplating doing they incorporating like the different endings into like select movies, like it's so you went and saw it in theaters at this theater, and I saw it in my theater, and you had a completely different ending than what I had.

SPEAKER_00 31:32

Oh, I don't know if they did it or something. Hmm. That would be cool.

SPEAKER_02 31:39

Uh let's see. Beef asks, when are you playing phasmophobia?

unknown 31:43

Beef.

SPEAKER_00 31:45

Uh um, I don't know because Faz okay Bullet, don't yell at me. I I get a little bored with Phasmophobia sometimes. So it's hard for me to stream it for a long time, and then I just get sleepy playing it. So I don't know when I'm gonna stream Fazz again. We shall see.

SPEAKER_03 32:08

Why would I yell at you? I suck at that game.

SPEAKER_07 32:14

You always yell at me.

SPEAKER_02 32:16

I do not, it's it's encouragement, it's encouraged conversation. That's what it is.

SPEAKER_00 32:22

Got it.

unknown 32:23

Got it.

SPEAKER_02 32:24

It's encouraging conversation, that's what it is, okay? Yeah. Hello, wildflower. Welcome in, welcome in. How you doing? If you could go back to replay a childhood game for the first time, what would it be?

SPEAKER_00 32:42

Oh, Tomb Raider. It would be Tomb Raider. I love Tomb Raider so much. That's such a niche like answer, but Tomb Raider. I love it.

SPEAKER_02 32:53

Like PlayStation 1 Tomb Raider?

SPEAKER_00 32:56

Yes, yes, PlayStation 1 Tomb Raider. Or Bioshock. Bioshock was so good. I love Bioshock.

SPEAKER_02 33:05

Well, I'll start a riot and say I've never played Bioshock.

SPEAKER_07 33:10

Oh, you need to.

SPEAKER_02 33:13

You really need to be able to do it. Bioshock Infinite is my answer, says Snacks.

SPEAKER_00 33:17

Yes. Yes.

SPEAKER_02 33:18

Original Tomb Raider games were awesome. Look, you and Snacks are gonna be BFFs. Look at that. Y'all got a lot in common. Uh let's see here. Where are we at? Do you have a favorite game? All in all in all, all-time favorite game from a kid to adult to now. Like, what would be your all-time favorite game?

SPEAKER_07 33:41

My all-time favorite game. Call of Duty?

SPEAKER_02 33:53

You can't just say Call of Duty. There's like 9,000 of them. You gotta be more specific. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 33:58

It would be Modern Warfare 2. Modern Warfare 2 is my all-time favorite game. I think that game was perfect, and I love it. Um, or I would say Tomb Raider.

SPEAKER_02 34:13

The original Modern Warfare 2 or the remake of Modern Warfare 2?

SPEAKER_00 34:17

The original. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 34:18

Alright, we're cool with that.

SPEAKER_00 34:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 34:20

We're we're cool. We can go with that. Me personally, I prefer the original Modern Warfare 3. I don't know what it is. I just feel like Modern Warfare 3 had a little bit more sp uh like more action to it and more multiplayer games, because Modern Warfare 3 was when I first started streaming. Like way back in the day. When I first started my Twitch journey back in 2015, that's what I was streaming was Modern Warfare 3.

SPEAKER_00 34:48

That's a good one.

unknown 34:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 34:49

Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops Zombies.

SPEAKER_00 34:52

Wow.

SPEAKER_03 34:53

That's what my my first games I streamed.

SPEAKER_00 34:58

Nostalgia.

SPEAKER_02 34:59

Yep. Yes indeed. I honestly have been thinking about bringing my pulling my Xbox back out and doing like a old school night, like a old school throwback Thursday or Flashback Friday stream night or something like that. And like stream black op zombies or something.

SPEAKER_00 35:15

Also, if you're doing a throwback, do Guitar Hero.

SPEAKER_02 35:18

Did you see where they're coming out with a new one?

SPEAKER_00 35:21

No.

SPEAKER_02 35:22

Yes, they have a new one coming out, and baby metal is on it.

SPEAKER_00 35:26

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02 35:27

Yes, I yes, yes, look it up. I forget what it's called. It's not called Guitar Hero. It's something, it's something different, but it's pretty it's Red Octane Studios and like the original creators are coming back. Yeah, look it up. Yep, look it up, look it up. Side side note, guys. Yeah, that's y'all's mission right now.

SPEAKER_00 35:45

I looked into getting Guitar Hero again because I wanted to play it so bad. And you it's like $400 to buy the original Guitar Hero.

SPEAKER_02 35:55

Oh yeah, that nostalgia, man. Like all the retro con okay, so I felt really old the other day. The original 360 turns like 20 years old this year. That's crazy. Like the Halo 3 Xbox 360 turns 20 years old this year. It came out in 2006. I said absolutely no way. No, it didn't. Look it up. I was hurt right here. See? Yes, I refuse. I and then I heard Lincoln Park on the classic radio station where I live, okay? I was having a bad day that day.

SPEAKER_07 36:36

Oh also another nostalgic game. Crazy Taxi. Does anyone know that one? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 36:47

Don't get me started on uh nostalgia, okay? I have 17 retro consoles in my collection, okay? Okay, okay. I believe it. And one of those games that I have is Simpson's Hit and Run for the PlayStation 2.

SPEAKER_00 37:05

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02 37:06

If you're gonna go with nostalgia.

SPEAKER_01 37:11

Alright, let's get back on track. Let's get back on track.

SPEAKER_00 37:13

Okay, okay. Sorry, sorry, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_02 37:15

What game have you completed 100% that you would recommend to a new gamer?

SPEAKER_00 37:22

A new gamer?

SPEAKER_02 37:24

Yes. Like somebody just came in and said, hey, I just bought a PC or Xbox or PlayStation. What what game would you suggest I play?

SPEAKER_00 37:38

If they wanted a scary game, I would recommend Mortuary Assistant or Dead by Daylight. Uh actually, no, not Dead by the Daylight, because I feel like if they're new to PC, that'd be hard, like with keybinds and stuff. So probably Mortuary Assistant. Um, or even Faz. Um, and then for FPS, honestly, probably like Battlefield or Counter Strike. Uh, or Fortnite. I'm not a huge fan of Fortnite, but it's easy. It's easy for new gamers, I think.

SPEAKER_03 38:18

Recommending Mortuary Assistant?

SPEAKER_07 38:22

Minecraft. Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 38:29

Have y'all heard it?

SPEAKER_02 38:30

Minecraft. Or Mortuaries Assistants or Battlefield or Fast Move. Just here you go. I'll tell you what. I'll just roll them up, put him in a hat. Here you go. Y'all take a look, y'all take a look at it.

SPEAKER_00 38:42

Or Resi. I can I can keep going. Good luck, yeah. Good luck.

SPEAKER_02 38:46

Yeah, just yeah, good luck. Sorry. Don't call me when you're up in the middle of the night peeing your bed. Snacks taking notes. Dead Rose, hello, welcome in, friend. How are you doing? Thank you for stopping in. Thank you for stopping in. What gets you to stream on your bad days?

SPEAKER_03 39:07

Like if you're just having a bad day, what gets you to stream when you don't want to?

SPEAKER_07 39:13

Honestly.

SPEAKER_00 39:16

Knowing that I that my community holds me accountable, like, because I know like I'm there for a lot of them. They're there for for me all the time. Um, so showing up for them is like what keeps me going. Um, I don't want to let them down. I want to be there for them, be like the positive part of their day, um, things like that. And it it's still hard sometimes. Like hard days can be really, really hard. Um, but I have a I have a really good community that you know helps me, helps me out with that.

SPEAKER_03 39:51

So community.

SPEAKER_02 39:55

You know, and that's kind of the going, you know, you are the 15th guest we've had on here, and I believe everybody has said the community for that answer. Because when you're when you build something, you know, organic, like a community from scratch, you know, they have especially the ones that come in day in and day out, like they they get to know you, you get to know them, they know like if you're having an off day or something's on your mind, just how you present and just I guess the attitude or atmosphere surrounding you. So yeah, definitely community is the going answer for that because you know, we're all it's all online, but in actuality, you know, you're building friendships that are lasting lifetimes, essentially.

SPEAKER_00 40:42

Exactly, exactly. And I'm a firm believer that the people you meet online through gaming or streaming or whatever are some of the closest people that you have because one, you guys share the same interests, you guys are gaming together, you guys are the with each other all the time during your free time. Um, and I feel like meeting friends that way versus like in like IRL in you know, in person. In person, people can be shy and like you know, not open up and things like that. But when you're behind a screen or behind a Discord call, like people you you open up like to these people and they open up to you and it's it's beautiful, I think.

SPEAKER_02 41:26

Oh yeah, for sure indeed. And if you uh and and I'm gonna add to that, if you guys can ever meet your online gaming friends, like safely obviously, do it. Like you you you've never met each other, but when you finally meet, it's like you y'all have known each other your entire lives, like y'all grew up down the street from each other. I've I've had the opportunity of meeting some of my online friends that we've been friends for years, like m my Xbox 360 friends. I finally just in the last few years have been able to meet them and you know IRL, and I'm just like it's like we grew up down the road, like nothing has changed.

SPEAKER_00 42:09

Yep. I I met two, those the first time ever meeting anyone that I met through gaming or streaming or anything. I met two of them within the past week, and it was beautiful, magical. I'm I'm so grateful.

SPEAKER_02 42:25

Yeah, I um I I met one of my friends. He he lives in Canada and he did a uh he called it his US tour because he took two weeks off work and literally drove, I think it was like 14 states, and met every single one of us that we've ganged with forever. And that's awesome. I I got out the car when I when I met him and I went to go shake his hand. He was like, Oh no, bro, you're getting a hook. Come here, come here. Oh what would you say has been the hardest thing you've had to overcome since you've started streaming?

SPEAKER_00 43:05

The hardest thing I had to overcome was learning that not everyone is nice on the internet. You're gonna deal with trolls and bullies and harsh comments. I mean, any anytime you put yourself online, you're gonna deal with that. But dealing with it live in chats and things like that is probably the hardest thing I had to overcome when I first started streaming, like back in October. I had plenty of days I would just burst out in tears on stream because someone said something or it triggered a nerve or hit a nerve or something and whatever. But I've I've got I've grown from that like really well, I think. Um, and you know, having the community as like my backup, it helps too. But that was that was the hardest thing to get get through and get over.

SPEAKER_02 43:56

Again, going back to the community, W community. And yes, cyberbullying sucks for sure.

SPEAKER_00 44:04

It does. It does.

SPEAKER_02 44:06

And like you were saying, you know, especially when it happens live, it's it really kind of I guess defines your character as to how you handle it. And that kind of goes, like you said, goes back to the community. Like you have your your mods that know when to step in and it's like, all right, that's too far. Like you focus on the game, we got this. So you do you, we got this.

SPEAKER_00 44:30

Yes, yeah. Um, but then I mean, I I care about my mods too, and I don't want them to put themselves in the line of fire, so to speak. So, you know, along with that, I have grown to just be stronger with like comments and chats and like brush it off. Um, I'm really I'm not to toot my own horn or anything, but I'm really proud of myself for how far I've come with that.

SPEAKER_01 44:57

I'll toot it for you, okay? Thank you, thank you. Girl, you better toot that horn. I know, mom, I know. Get 'em.

SPEAKER_07 45:07

Hello, motion friend.

SPEAKER_03 45:12

Do you ever feel forced to go live sometimes?

SPEAKER_02 45:16

Like if you've told your community, like, all right guys, yeah, I'm going, I'll I'll go live tonight, and then you know, you just have a bad day, and it's like, oh man, like I don't want to stream, but I told them I would stream and then you go live. Like, do you ever feel forced sometimes?

SPEAKER_00 45:32

I wouldn't use forced as the word, but I've definitely felt guilty for those times where, like, you know, at the end of the stream, you know, I'm like, okay, I'll see you guys tomorrow, and then I physically like I'm, you know, dealing with stuff or whatever, can't get on. I definitely do feel that a lot. I mean, it happens all the time. Um, because I'm human. Uh, we're all human, we go through stuff. Sometimes things are harder. Um, and I do feel guilty, but I would never say I feel forced to go live. Um, and some days I just I don't. And I, you know, I apologize when I see the ch when I see the community again, and it's all good. But it's it's a little bit of a mental block for sure.

SPEAKER_02 46:18

Well, never, never feel guilty because I say it till I'm blue in the face, you know, you gotta take care of yourself before you can take care of the community, and that kind of goes back to the you know, building a community from scratch and having your people coming in day in, day out that know you, like you get online and they can just immediately tell, all right, something's not right. Like, we're not gonna get the cash where we normally get. So yeah, what what what's going on? Like, talk to us, and then it turns into just a you know um therapy session. Yeah, which ain't nothing wrong with that. Like, hey, no, don't you know it it's good to talk about it and not hold it in.

SPEAKER_00 46:57

Yeah, definitely. I've uh I've definitely had therapy sessions with my chat multiple times, but I'm kind of a crybaby, so I try not to much because I will cry for the entire stream and I don't want to do that. Don't want to mess up my makeup, you know.

SPEAKER_02 47:11

All right, chat. Y'all heard that our goal by the end of this episode is to get her to cry, so we got this.

SPEAKER_00 47:17

It's so close, it's been so close so many times.

SPEAKER_01 47:21

Wow, it's just a bullet, it's not just little old me.

SPEAKER_00 47:28

Yeah, uh not the goal, it's crazy.

SPEAKER_02 47:35

If you could collab with any streamer, whether it be a mega streamer or just a small, you know, just starting out streamer, who would it be? And you can answer for both big and small streamers.

SPEAKER_07 47:48

Hmm.

SPEAKER_00 47:52

I would say okay, so it's hard because I don't I don't watch too many streamers. I don't uh like big streamers. I you know, I support my community, like the ones in my community that stream and things like that. And you obviously um for small streamers, obviously, bullet, mob, nomad, uh, live, uh, big streamers. There's this one on TikTok that I probably wouldn't be opposed to. I think her name is like Nikki Crams or something like that. She just has really fun energy and I love it. Um, but yeah, that's I mean, sorry, that's kind of a lame answer, but I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 48:34

I don't stream, don't add I was gonna say no mess that don't add him, add him to that.

SPEAKER_00 48:40

He's added already. I've already I'm already collabing with him.

SPEAKER_03 48:47

What is your favorite memory since you've started streaming?

SPEAKER_00 48:52

Oh my god, I know okay, I have an answer for this, and this is gonna make me cry.

SPEAKER_01 48:57

Okay Yes, we did it, guys!

SPEAKER_00 49:00

And Alicia, if you're still here, this has this pertains to you. Um there was a moment, it it actually happened a few months ago, um, or probably four months ago, um, where my I was you know looking at my Discord and everyone's talking with each other and things like that. And there was a a point where there was like three people, Alicia, Jesus, and I think there was one other person, I forget the other person, but they decided to like game together. And I I I started crying when I read that and saw that they were, you know, coming together, forming friendships within the community that I built, and like that was the whole purpose of why I was doing I'm doing what I do is to bring people together and like create friendships and things like that. And it was I was so proud. I was so happy, like just to see that they were getting everyone's getting along, everyone's happy, they're gaming together. Like it was it was amazing.

SPEAKER_03 50:05

Proud mama moment.

SPEAKER_00 50:08

Yeah, and that's what it's about.

SPEAKER_02 50:11

Oh, I heard I heard I heard the choke up on that, and that's why you said it so fast. Oh yeah, come on. But yeah, that's what it's all about, you know, and that's why I do what I do with with this podcast and this, you know, the streamer shout-outs on TikTok. Like, if I could use my platform to broadcast or showcase another streamer to introduce you to somebody that you don't know, like we'll use wildflower and snacks, for example. You know, y'all may have never heard of each other, and y'all have so much in common just from what you've said with games and everything. And I'm not sure if they followed you yet or have checked your page out, but hopefully, and then boom, you got two new people that are gonna come and be a part of the community, and then I've I've seen so many people since I've started doing this from one community show up in another community because I I showcase this one and I'm just oh I know you.

SPEAKER_01 51:02

Hey person, hey, what's up, friend?

SPEAKER_02 51:04

Yep, and then and now it's just all of these communities are just intertwining, and you know, I love doing that.

SPEAKER_00 51:11

So I love it so much.

SPEAKER_02 51:14

I did in fact following. What wildflower said I did in fact follow Casper from this. Let's go.

SPEAKER_00 51:22

Thank you.

SPEAKER_02 51:24

And even if and even if it's just that one one new person, you know, that's one new person that gets to see your awesomeness. So because at the end of the day, we all have the same goal, like we're not in this as a competition. Like I saw a TikTok earlier, it's like, you know, don't treat other small streamers as competition. Like we're all in this together, we all have the same goal. Why tear why are you gonna tear each other down, like use each other to build on each other and just make an amazing time?

SPEAKER_00 51:56

Exactly, yeah. And that's why, like, anyone that's in my community, if they stream, I do my best to like pop into every single stream. Uh, if it's for five minutes, ten minutes, like I still do my best to like show the support that I can do, you know.

SPEAKER_02 52:10

Oh, yeah, and exactly because you know, we all have lives outside of streaming, and it's like I tell everybody that comes in and they're like, Hey, I can't stay, just wanted to say hey or drop a lurk. Like, appreciate that. Like, you took yeah 30 seconds, a minute out of your day to just come in and say, Hey, what's up? Like, that means the world to me. And I, you know, lurkers make the stream world go around, so exactly. It it just we love the lurkers, exactly. And like I said, it just means the world that you took the time out of your busy day, out of your busy life to just come in and say, Hey, what's up? Like, just can't stay, but hey, I appreciate it.

SPEAKER_07 52:48

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_03 52:52

Did you or do you have a role model when it comes to streaming?

SPEAKER_00 52:59

When it comes to streaming, I would say mob and nomad are my biggest role models for streaming because they're obviously like part of my community. I know them, I see how hard they work um at just their content creation in general, they're amazing people, and I would say they're my role models not only in streaming but in life too. But um, yeah, but as far as like maybe a big streamer, let me try and think. Um I really like how Valkyrie, Valkyrie, I don't know how to say her name, but Valkyrie built herself up with streaming. Um, so I've I've looked at her stuff and like used it as inspiration as well.

SPEAKER_02 53:49

Uh Valkyrie, that name sounds familiar.

SPEAKER_00 53:52

She streams uh Fortnite mainly. It was back in the day, like 20 2017. She still streams, I think, not too often, but um, she I mean she built it authentically, um, which is what I'm trying to do.

SPEAKER_02 54:07

So well, I don't think you're trying, I think you're succeeding, friend. Because I mean, 581 followers on Twitch, 582 now because Wildflower says she followed you, but I haven't checked the numbers yet. And almost 3700 on TikTok. So you are definitely not trying, you definitely are. So thank you. Stop talking that trying stuff, and you even said yourself, like you had that. Yes, I've built this community moment, uh, you know, four months ago. So you are definitely trying. Stop saying you you are not trying. I'm doing, yes, just do it. Talk, don't think about it, be about it. You got it. You're doing a fantastic job. Get her preaching. Yes, I'm preaching. I'm getting her. I'm getting her.

SPEAKER_07 54:59

Nike.

SPEAKER_03 55:01

Yes, what has been the best positive impact streaming has given you?

SPEAKER_00 55:12

It has taught me a lot about myself, um, with the way that like I now handle those chats that we talked about, and like um seeing myself grow and also seeing my own discipline with it too, because like as you guys know, like it's full-time for me. So keeping that discipline and you know, still showing up for myself, the community has made me grow a lot since October. A lot, a lot. Um, so it's really it's it's really like beautiful to look back on like where I started, where I'm at now. Um, see, my voice is cracking, I'm getting teary-eyed. Um, yeah, just just you know, learning to show up for myself and do what I know makes me happy for my community, being there for people.

SPEAKER_07 56:08

Um that's that's it, yeah. Hi, Kev.

SPEAKER_02 56:16

Hi, Kev! See, that was better than what we had of the hi Nat. See, so that's the energy. Hi, Kev! You know?

SPEAKER_07 56:24

Hi, Kev.

SPEAKER_03 56:27

What's something small that still brings you joy in all of this on this journey of yours?

SPEAKER_07 56:37

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 56:38

There's so many small things that bring me joy with it. Um, I would say there's so many moments in chat where like a new person will pop in and like instantly just like start opening up about things, or like I get to know them like very, very fast just through chat, and that it sounds little, but to me it's big. Like that someone can be so comfortable, like almost instantly when they come to my streams. Um, and just like being that like safe place for people. Um yeah, it's it's nice, it's really nice.

SPEAKER_02 57:20

Yeah, and that goes back to what we were saying earlier with the the way you just handle your chat and your community, like you can be and I I've seen it firsthand when that first time person comes in. Like the way you essentially just open everything up, like hey, feel pull up a chair, come you know, come hang out, feel comfortable, like me, Casa, you casa, you know, just yeah, hang out, you know. This is like you said, it's a safe place, and like I said, I've seen that firsthand, and you are very good at you know, making it a safe place. Thank you. Because I know you've said I've like I said, I've seen the firsthand where if somebody's been have going through a rough spot, whether they're new or uh a normal person that comes in, you can just say, hey, like don't say it on here, but you know, our the Discord, like join the Discord and yeah, we'll talk off stream. So you definitely handle that professionally as well. So definitely big, big shout out to you for that.

SPEAKER_00 58:20

Thank you. Thank you. I I mean I want everyone to know that they have people to go to, you know. We all we all deal with stuff, we all struggle with things, I deal with things. Um, I even created like a therapy channel on my Discord so literally like anyone can just open up about things and get advice, and um you never know what someone's going through. So if someone can pop into my stream and either forget about all the nonsense going on or talk about it, or you know, have a good time, laugh about things, that's all I care about.

SPEAKER_02 58:53

Exactly. And obviously, what's said in the Discord stays in the Discord, there's no judgment and everything like that. So again, goes back to that. They know you're a safe place and they know nothing is gonna be betrayed or used against them, you know, and endeavors. See, this is why she is the goat, and not everyone can do what she does. Exactly. And that's why she's on this podcast because she is awesome and amazing. Thank you.

SPEAKER_03 59:23

So, do you have a special catchphrase or do something special with your chat?

SPEAKER_07 59:29

Uh I don't know. Do I?

SPEAKER_00 59:33

Um, I would say, well, I wouldn't say it's like a catchphrase or like anything, but we have a few inside jokes. Like it's a running joke. Everyone's always like trying to guess like my height, and I never tell anyone, but the sometimes they're like, oh, she's three nine, she's three foot nothing. Like I would say that's like one of the inside jokes that's like always going. Um, the fact that I don't cuss, that's another thing like people like I guess joke about or whatever. Um, try to get me, she's actually too a lot. Yeah. Um, yeah, I don't cuss. So sometimes people will try to get me to cuss on on streams and I don't. Um, but as far as catchphrases, I don't know. Chat, do I have any like things I say? Um oh I say um holy macaroni and chips a lot.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:31

Holy macaroni and chips. I'm gonna steal that now. I'm gonna trademark that retroverse reserve. The whole we can no longer use it. It's it's bullets now. International diplomat. So this is probably a a repeat question from what you were saying earlier, but what would you say is your biggest accomplishment during your stream career?

SPEAKER_00 1:00:55

I mean, aside from that moment of like seeing the community like become friends and like play off or like talk off stream and things like that. Um I would say, I mean, becoming uh affiliate on Twitch was amazing. Um uh da da da da da. It's really just yeah, it just comes down to like the community moments and like seeing people like get together. Um and like obviously, like it's nice when you start seeing your viewership viewerships grow, you know, and it's like the same people that you see all the time, and you're building the like you know, the people that want to come back and hang out and stuff like that again, another W community.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:48

All I talk about, they're my favorite thing in the world.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:51

So hey, you you gotta be proud of it. Because, like you said, you build you start from nothing and you build this empire, and it's hard not to be proud of it. And like I said, with your numbers for sure, you you're doing a phenomenal job.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:06

Thank you. I appreciate that. What would you say has been the most satisfying experience?

SPEAKER_00 1:02:17

Most satisfying experience was one time I did I did a 24 hour stream, and I didn't think I could do it, but I did it, and that was very satisfying. I was very proud of myself. Um, so that is like a big accomplishment. Because I mean I do stream for long periods of time, but sometimes like you get tired, I'll do a short stream, but 24 hour, I know I never thought I could do it, but I did.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:51

So we'll go back to the doot doot doot that horn girl.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:00

Thank you for your refresh dumpling.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:02

I appreciate you, friend. See, look, you're playing with your hair again. Oh, sorry, you could answer that as as your your thing you do with your yeah, just play with your hair.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:12

Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that is one. I play with my hair a lot. A lot. Um, and I go on like Casper cam breaks to like fix my hair or eat a snack or something. People talk about that a lot.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:28

Have you had your I made it moment? And if you have, what was it?

SPEAKER_00 1:03:37

I wouldn't say I've had my I've made it moment because I feel like streaming you're always gonna be going. Like there's not really like I feel like there's not really like an end goal with streaming because it can just keep growing, keep growing. Um but I mean, I guess when the first person that joined my Discord server joined from streams, that's when I was like, man, like this this is this is possible. This is like I can do it, and this is you know, it's great. Um so as far as like made it, I don't think I don't have an I made it because I haven't necessarily made it yet, but it's just gonna keep going, you know.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:23

Well, I won't answer ask the second part of that question.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:26

The second part was what will it take for you to feel like you've had that I made it moment?

SPEAKER_07 1:04:33

Huh.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:34

I guess it would be once I if I ever get when I get to a point where I, you know, am sponsored by a a comp a product or a company, and you know, people I get, you know, views on YouTube and things like that. But honestly, like my first thought was like once I can do a meet and greet with people, like I think that's kind of like wow, like all these people showed up because of me, and like I built I built this, you know.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:11

So TwitchCon 2027, we're gonna be doing a meet and greet with Casper Kills and and Booth 27 um on Wednesday from 2 to 7. Be sure to pre-order your tickets now. Yes, yes, beat LB Square. Yeah, sell it out.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:28

Our one and only meet and greet.

unknown 1:05:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:31

We got this.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:32

And then I would huh?

SPEAKER_02 1:05:35

I was gonna say, then come into Comic-Con. We'll have Capricills.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:41

I would love a meet and greet. That would be so fun.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:46

Just meet up with everybody. It would be.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:48

I've honestly thought about doing uh like going to TwitchCon because I know a bunch of people that I follow go to TwitchCon.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:57

That's pretty cool. Wait, meet and greet, yes. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:03

Yes, Matt, we've talked about this.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:05

She's gonna be in booth 27 next year from two to seven. If you were to have never streamed or done anything when it comes to content creation and you were to start streaming tomorrow, how would you approach it?

SPEAKER_00 1:06:26

I would approach it with an open mind and with no expectations. Because I feel like when you go into streaming with expectations, you're you're bound to like get discouraged and want to quit and things like that. But if you don't have any expectations and you're doing it for the right reasons and to have fun, um then you can't really be let down because if you're gaming, you love gaming, so you're doing something you like, you know. Um but expectations I think would be the biggest thing to not don't have any. Don't have any expectations, just go into it authentic, genuine, be yourself.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:07

Um yeah, y'all be sure to write that down.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:13

Don't have expectations, just just go when it has and that's what I always tell, you know, new streamers, because you know, I'm a big supporter for the the especially like the first starting out streamers. Like I I do scroll on TikTok a lot. I'm guilty for it. But I come across a lot of like just starting out streamers, and you know, I I try telling them like just have fun. Like you're playing a game, if people show up, awesome. If they come back, even better, but just just go play your game, have fun, and just let everything grow naturally. Like, don't force exactly.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:48

Yeah, everyone uh people will stay because you're authentic, like that's what people look for now, especially nowadays. Like, there's so much so many fake things online, and people just want to connect with someone, like that's all we all really want.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:06

Yes, indeedy, I completely agree with you on that.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:11

If you could add one thing to your setup to make it feel more complete, what would it be?

SPEAKER_00 1:08:18

Oh, okay. I got answers for this. So I want to get a sign that says Casper Kills in the back. I really, really want like one of those neon signs. Um I also have been saving trying, well, I I wouldn't say saving because I haven't actively saved for it yet, but I want to get a streaming PC, like a separate streaming PC for like streaming and then my gaming PC. Uh that would make my life a lot easier. Um, but yeah, the sign and dash about it. That and the streaming PC.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:56

All right, so for Christmas wish list, we're gonna be donating for uh a neon sign. She also wants some good headphones, says beef.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:06

No, no, no, okay. Yes, but okay, Matt, we're not talking about the headphones.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:14

It would mess up the hair. She couldn't play with the hair with other headsets.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:18

I use I use EIMs because I can't really wear like headphones like on my head because it hurts. And I have like the thrown wish list thing where like my community can like gift things or whatever, and I have a pair of IEM headphones on there that are Bluetooth and they're perfect, and I love them so much. And Matt bought himself a pair and he keeps rubbing it in.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:41

As a good community member would do.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:44

Yeah, it just hurts my soul a little bit. Your biggest trolls are the biggest supporters.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:51

You can always give over that.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:53

I know they are good headphones, Cass. I can hear so clearly.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:57

You can't see it. I'm sure. I'm sure great.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:05

What would you say is your biggest strength when it comes to streaming?

SPEAKER_00 1:10:11

That's a the way I can conversate and communicate with chat because even when I first started out, like I would get messages and DMs from random people that were in my stream saying, like, oh my god, like you're so good at like talking to everybody, and like it was like, you know, it kept everybody engaged, and like I get messages like that all the time, and that's probably my biggest strength is being able to keep the conversations going with multiple people at the same time and not forget also not even forgetting what they talked about in the last stream, like asking them about that, like the next time I see them and just remembering them, remembering our conversations. Um, because I I genuinely have a really bad memory, but for some reason I can almost remember every single conversation I have during every stream. Like, I don't know what it is, it's uh a superpower, I guess. But um yeah, that's my biggest strength is the conversations and remembering people and remembering, you know, what they've talked about.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:15

So, what did we talk about six months ago on the 14th during your counter-strike game?

SPEAKER_00 1:11:24

On the 16th during my counter-strike game, you were you were you said you said hey, and I said, What's up, bullet?

SPEAKER_02 1:11:36

You got it, you got it, she's done it, she's done it, she remembers she's our mom.

SPEAKER_01 1:11:43

I am your guys' mom.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:45

She she is good, I tell y'all. Y'all, I'm telling y'all, y'all need to follow her. She she's good, she's good.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:51

Yep, and then you got mad at me for cat for catching or saying hi to you before you said hi, so I was trying to be, you know, hiding out in the shadows, but you're like, oh hi, bullet, I see you.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:03

And I'm just like, oh yeah. What is a belief about streaming that you had when you started that you now know is completely wrong?

SPEAKER_00 1:12:15

I would say I genuinely like I know, like going back to like the the internet bullies and things like that. I had an idea of it. I was like, you know, people talk about like putting yourself online is really hard and you know it's like mentally draining and things like that. But going into it, I was like, nah, like nobody's gonna nobody's gonna be mean to me. Like, I'm just you know, I'm just a nice girl. Nobody's gonna nobody's gonna talk bad to me. And I would say that was like my biggest like like eye-opener. I was like, oh, I'm not invincible. People are gonna be rude and stuff. Um yeah, so going going into the it with that idea was uh kind of a shocker.

SPEAKER_07 1:13:05

It's the internet, gotta love it. Yep, it is the internet. Um yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:13

Other than gaming, what is a favorite hobby of yours?

SPEAKER_00 1:13:19

I uh recently actually started writing again. I used to write a long time ago, but I started writing. Um I recently shared it with my community, actually, like the website and everything for it. Um, so I do that. Um, I still dabble in like art and stuff, but it's a little bit harder to do the art because I it I would need a whole space for it, but I still am creative and things like that. Um, I love cooking, I love dogs, hanging out with my dog. Um now going to the gym. I started going to the gym again, found my passion for that again. So all of those things I like music, dancing, singing. Um, I play the keyboard, guitar, a keyboard slash piano, whatever. Um, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:14:10

That's it.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:12

Well, we're about to have a Casper karaoke stream.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:15

Let's go. Which would you say is your preferred instrument, guitar or the keyboard?

SPEAKER_00 1:14:23

Piano for sure. Um, I think it's beautiful. Um, it's easier for me to play too because since I have nails, guitar is a lot harder. Um, but I think just piano and it's it's so beautiful. I love it so much. But with guitar, I I s I sing more when I play guitar. Piano is more just like instrumental that I play, but yeah, piano would be my top, my top pick.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:50

Okay, get the piano out, says Beef. Let's see your boogeyman wrap city. Let's let's hear Boogie Interap City. Let's go. Let's get a preview. Yes. 24 hour streams coming up. Let's let's uh let's let's get a little karaoke preview.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:08

Hey, hey, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, settle down.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:15

He said for 5,000 subs she'll she'll do a piano stream.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:21

Yep, get on it.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:24

Now I know we kind of hit on this earlier when we kind of went over the rules in your chat, but when someone what is your go-to on making people feel welcomed and comfortable when they come into your stream for the first time?

SPEAKER_00 1:15:39

Uh one thing that I do all the time is I try well, I try my hardest to ask every person that comes in a different question. I don't want it to just be like, hey, how are you? Like, how's your day? I'll ask them like, what'd you have for dinner? Um, what do you like? I don't know, uh, what's your favorite song? Like I try to ask them questions that will get them to be like, oh, like that's that's interesting. And then they start talking about that, like something they're interested in and things like that. And um, I think it it really helps for people to not just hear the generic, how are you, or hi, welcome in, you know. Um, because it helps, I think it makes them feel a little bit more seen, especially when there's multiple people in the chat trying to, you know, have a conversation and things like that.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:27

So Which again goes back to just your amazing community skills when it comes to talking to your community. Let's see, download piano on your phone and let's hear it. All right, chat. You heard what we gotta do. I'll have no accounts. I mean, you gotta give the people what they want. I mean I know.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:53

Well, you you gotta give me a second, guys. I just shared my writings. That's the you know, that's a lot, and then eventually I'll share my music stuff. Eventually.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:04

We'll be waiting for. We're holding you accountable. Mark it down this day, July 6th. We're gonna get some we're gonna get some music from Casper. A second pass. Oh, Alicia got you. She said a second's passed. You did say give me give you a second. All right, correct.

SPEAKER_03 1:17:21

All right, let's get to it. Where is one area in streaming you want to grow in and be better at?

SPEAKER_00 1:17:33

I want to be better at my my schedule, uh keeping a consistent schedule, which I'm going to be getting, I'm locking locking into that like now. Um staying consistent on that. And I want I do want to get better at the games, which I know isn't necessarily related to streaming, but I do want to get better at the games um while still paying attention to my chat and things like that. Because I I do pay attention to both. I, you know, I do a really good job at that, but when I pay attention to chat more, the gameplay kind of dwindles a little bit. So I want to just, you know, get a little bit better at the game so I don't have to, you know, so I could be a little bit more entertaining sometimes.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:19

Well, I mean, we come to chat with you. I mean, the game's just second at that point. I mean, I suck at phasmophobia and people still show up to watch me be horrible at it. So we're here to interact with you, friend. I know, I know, but you know, I want to, you know, and sometimes being bad at a game just makes it even more entertaining. That's true.

SPEAKER_00 1:18:43

I just I'm tired of the bad aim jokes, guys. I'm tired of it.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:49

She's tired of the bad aim jokes because she has aimbot on it. She just don't want to be s draw suspicion to herself. That's all that is.

SPEAKER_00 1:18:56

Yes, yeah. I'm just so good at the game that they're bad. No, they're not.

SPEAKER_02 1:19:06

So on the opposite side of the hand for that question, what are some areas you're not proud of with streaming?

SPEAKER_07 1:19:17

I'm not proud of who we like to.

SPEAKER_00 1:19:24

Um, I'm not proud of being inconsistent with the stream schedule. Um, obviously, not to sound like a broken record, but that um I'm not proud of, you know, some of the time that I've had to take away from streams, like whether it be days or a couple weeks or whatever, like, you know, I know I have to take care of myself and things like that, but I want to get better at that. I want to get better at showing up even on my hardest, hardest, hardest days and weeks. Um, I'm not I'm not too proud of you know how much time I have taken off in the past, but it'll get better.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:05

Consistency is key. Just gotta remember that.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:09

Yes. Do you have any pre-stream rituals before you go live? Like, do you have a drink of water or you grab a snack? What's your pre-stream rituals like?

SPEAKER_00 1:20:21

Yes. So my pre-stream ritual, aside from like, okay, so obviously do the hair, do the makeup, all of that. Um, I let Zorro outside so he doesn't bother me to go to the bathroom while I'm streaming, grab my water, grab snacks, or I eat beforehand. Um, because I don't really like eating on stream. Um, obviously pull up all my uh OBS stuff, all my streaming stuff, make sure that's good, test it. Um I cue up a few songs, listen to that while I'm getting it all ready, and then um yeah, then I go live.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:57

Speaking of Zorro, uh chat would like a treat for Zorro.

SPEAKER_07 1:21:04

Zorro, come here. Come here. Over here, on this side. Eagle. Eagle, from Matt.

SPEAKER_00 1:21:15

Oh, Matt, he just dropped it on my floor. He's cleaning it up, it looks like. Yeah, he is, he is.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:26

So on the opposite hand of the pre-stream ritual, what does your after stream ritual look like? Like, how do you unwind from a stream?

SPEAKER_00 1:21:35

Most of the time after a stream, um, I have post-stream zoomies. So I'm like wired after a stream because of all the adrenaline and like like how happy I am from like the like talking with everybody and things like that. So sometimes I do have to like force myself to like wind down. So, you know, take my makeup off, get in comfy clothes, hang out with Zorro. Um a lot of the time too, I just go through like the VOD and just like re-watch some of it to kind of wind down, do some clipping, um clips and like editing videos, uh things like that. Um yeah, that's pretty much all I do. I just kind of settle down a little bit. Depends what time, too, or I'll just go right to bed.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:28

Just save for the next day. It'll be there when we come back.

SPEAKER_06 1:22:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:34

Hello, Brie. Woohoo! We are so back. Yes, indeedy, we are. We are indeed. And chat as well. If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask. I know Casper told me beforehand she is an open book. And Casper because I am getting to the end of my list. I only have a few more questions left, and you have been filling these questions.

SPEAKER_03 1:23:02

He says he has a lot. All right.

SPEAKER_07 1:23:06

What brand is your microwave?

SPEAKER_00 1:23:09

You know what brand it is, no matter. I don't you know the brand. I don't know the brand. What is it? It's uh Whirlpool. My microwave is a Whirlpool microwave, and it sucks. I do not recommend it. It's horrible. I do not like it. How tall are you?

SPEAKER_07 1:23:28

I'm 211.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:30

I thought you were trying to squeeze that extra inch to make it three-nothing.

SPEAKER_07 1:23:34

No, I don't want me taller.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:39

Who doesn't know the brand? Nomad, you know the brand. Is the sky blue is crazy? No, it's not. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:51

I see why you say your your your chat goes wild during streams. I see now.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:58

Does your sundriter actually work for you? No, it doesn't. I put it down, it does nothing, so I just leave it up. You happy? How many thank you, Alicia, for a normal c question.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:12

Uh how many tattoos do you have?

SPEAKER_00 1:24:16

Well, I have my whole arm. That's like kind of hard to count.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:18

And then I see some empty spaces. That's not your whole arm. There's empty spaces, okay?

SPEAKER_00 1:24:25

Barely. There's one empty space right here.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:28

There's a space underneath the owl and that flower. I saw that. On the other side. Yeah, look at all that open space right there. You can feed you could squeeze some tattoos. Alright, let me count.

SPEAKER_07 1:24:39

Let me count.

SPEAKER_00 1:24:40

One, two, three, four, five.

SPEAKER_07 1:24:46

I think there's six on this arm. Six or seven. Don't don't talk about it. Sorry, I had to.

SPEAKER_00 1:24:57

And then I have my jellyfish. And then I have both of my feet tattooed. I'm not gonna show you guys that. Um, but I have a shark on one foot and then a lotus flower on the other foot. I have my whole side done, not gonna show you guys that. I have a compass on my back. Um, I have my left leg thigh done. Um, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:25:21

I think that's it.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:25

Uh, Brie in chat has asked, what has streaming taught you about yourself? Ooh, I'm gonna put that in my key right here.

SPEAKER_00 1:25:36

It has taught me a lot of things. Um, it has taught me that not again, all deep and sappy and whatever, but um, it has taught me that I am worthy of being loved because I see how many people love me in my community. Um, it has taught me discipline in, you know, still pushing through, talking to people on my hard days, being there for people when I'm having a hard time myself, um, which I enjoy doing. I'm not complaining about it, but it it's taught me a lot about that. Um, believe it or not, also, I used to be an introvert. I still am very hardcore an introvert, but it has taught me that I am like an extroverted introvert, where like I thrive off like conversing with people and like building connections with people and things like that. But you know, at the end of the day, I still need my me time and things like that. But um, yeah, the biggest thing is like that I am worthy and people see me uh and want to keep showing up for me.

SPEAKER_07 1:26:45

Beautifully said, beautifully said. Thank you.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:53

What would you say is the top three funniest moments you've had on this journey, whether it be with your chat or your community or something that happened in a game?

SPEAKER_00 1:27:08

There's been a lot of like funny moments on stream. I mean, every jump scare that I've had, every time I'm playing Resident Evil trying to get through it, and I genuinely don't know where to go, and my chat's like sitting there telling me, and I still don't know. That's pretty funny. Um but for the community and like just streaming it in general, funniest moments. We got him a cake, we were just like being goofy, and like yeah, it's just it's mainly though, like the jump scares on stream and like me just making stupid plays and like falling off the map, or like not reloading my gun and losing a gunfight. Like, those those are the moments I would say. Yeah, the Q zombie dog.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:02

You always reboot after a gunfight. You always. That's like COD Logic World What.

SPEAKER_00 1:28:07

You can't though, because Valorant and Counter-Strike, you have limited ammo, so you have to like savor it.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:17

Um Mob asks, if there is one thing you could change about the streaming world, what would it be and why? Great question.

SPEAKER_00 1:28:28

I would say I wish there was more authentic streamers out there. Um because I feel like there's a a good amount that put like a bad taste in people's mouths about streaming in in general. Um, so I I just wish people did it for the right reasons, and they weren't doing it for money grab or clout or anything like that.

SPEAKER_07 1:28:56

Indeed. Authentic streamers, lovely answer, lovely answer.

SPEAKER_03 1:29:01

Yeah. When people remember you years from now, what do you hope they remember most?

SPEAKER_07 1:29:07

Oof.

SPEAKER_02 1:29:09

See, chat always comes with the hard questions. I'm kind of I'm kind of, hey, what's your favorite drink? What's your favorite water, you know? And they're coming with the deep questions. So all the deep questions I have in my question here came from chat. So keep them coming, guys.

SPEAKER_00 1:29:26

It's Liv that asked that too. I'm gonna get all emotional. Um, what I want people to remember about me when I'm gone or whatever is that I did my best, and that I genuinely just like cared for other people. Like I I want to be that person for people, I want to be their safe place, I want to be their peace, I want to be their positivity. Um trying not to cry, but yeah, I want people to remember my heart and how huge of a heart I have for everybody.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:10

And you've hit it on the head numerous times tonight, like with your community, with you know how you communicate with your community, like you do have a huge heart and you do care for everybody. That's why you you said you did take and make a like therapy channel in your your server for people to just let loose and not be judged or feel like they can't hold back. So definitely for sure. One of the biggest hearts I've ever met. So big W to you, friend.

SPEAKER_07 1:30:41

Thank you.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:45

What moment changed the direction of your life without you realizing it at that time? Ask Liv.

SPEAKER_00 1:30:51

Liv! I was literally on the phone with Liv before I got on this, and we were having some deep talks. Okay. Uh what moment changes the direction of your life without you realizing it? Um I would say honestly, when I started streaming, I didn't think that it would grow this as to what it is. I didn't think that I would even enjoy it. I was just trying it. Thought I would thought I might like it, doing it for fun, seeing how it would go, and it uh it hooked me. Like it was the most amazing experience that I had, like just the whole journey of it. Um and that changed the trajectory of my entire life since then.

SPEAKER_03 1:31:53

And then piggybacking off live, Alicia says, What's something you'll always remember about your community?

SPEAKER_07 1:32:00

Oh right, we're gonna get a little deep here.

SPEAKER_00 1:32:06

I'm gonna try not to cry, but um there was a moment uh earlier this year that I had said goodbye to streaming. I said goodbye to a lot of things. And my community is the my community is the one that had my back, kept checking in on me, pulling me back into it, telling me that I was like worthy and all these things. They talked me off the ledge essentially, and that I will eternally be grateful for.

SPEAKER_03 1:32:44

I love you guys again, W community. And that's all I could say, W community.

SPEAKER_02 1:32:53

If someone watched every hour of your content but never met you in real life, what would they understand about you and what would they completely miss?

SPEAKER_00 1:33:02

Hmm. Nomad with the deep questions, huh?

SPEAKER_02 1:33:06

I mean, you did say earlier you don't want me to get deep questions, so I know, I know.

SPEAKER_00 1:33:13

If they watched my content but never met me in real life, I think that they would understand that. I think I genuinely think that people can understand that I enjoy what I do, I enjoy the games, I enjoy talking with you guys. Um and like that I'm there for you guys. Um, and I won't let my own stuff hinder like me being there for you at any point at any moment. Um as far as uh what they would miss, I think they would, I think people would miss like not they wouldn't they wouldn't see the pain that I go through as like a normal human being because I I do a pretty good job at like masking that on stream for you guys, um, to and for myself too, like when I hop on stream I forget about all that stuff. So I think a lot of people would miss the stuff that goes on behind the scenes.

SPEAKER_03 1:34:18

Um yeah, and then Liv comes with another deep hitting one. If you could sit across from the version of yourself who was hurting the most, what would you say to them?

SPEAKER_00 1:34:34

Oof if you could sit across from across from the version of yourself who was hurting the most, what would you say to them? I would tell them to keep hope. Because hope helps me now in the time in my life that I'm in. Um having stuff to look forward to, enjoying what you're doing in the moment, living your life to the best of your ability, um, and to not beat yourself up over like little mistakes or things that you should have done or whatever. Um because I'm someone that doesn't have like regrets in life, but there are things I wish that I could have done differently, and I would say to not beat myself up over it, because it's life, and you gotta accept it how it is now.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:32

As Joe Durp says, you gotta keep on keeping on.

SPEAKER_07 1:35:36

Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:39

Alright, and then this last deep question before we move on to the rest of the questionnaire is if the words you spoke appeared on your skin, would you still be beautiful?

SPEAKER_00 1:35:50

Yes. So I don't I think I I talk about things very honestly and beautifully. I don't I don't think I speak negatively. Sometimes I'll speak negatively out of, you know, if I'm angry or upset, but it's very, very rarely. Um so I think I would still be beautiful. I'd probably be more beautiful if the words spoke, the words I spoke appeared on my skin.

SPEAKER_02 1:36:19

Only time I've ever seen you get mad in chat was when you never uh when I I went five minutes unnoticed. And I'm just like, woman, just play your game. I'm not here, don't mind me.

SPEAKER_00 1:36:40

Stop the stream, everybody bullet here.

SPEAKER_02 1:36:43

Yeah, I have I don't, you know, thinking about it, I can't remember seeing you like upset or rage at a game. You more so laugh at yourself, like more than anything. Yeah, like when I did your uh your voiceover video, you know, to promo this last week. I was going through your clips on Twitch and TikTok, and like I I pretty much scrolled your entire repertoire, and it was I I did not find the first rage one at all. And like I said, it was more so you laughing at yourself like when you were in a gunfight or something, and you're like, Yeah, we got this one, we got this one guy, and then they would like headshot you, you just like have a blank look on your face, you're just like, What that just happened? And yeah, I could not do that. I rage really bad.

SPEAKER_00 1:37:33

I don't know what it is about me. I like because like I think that I think I'm a competitive person because I was in cheer growing up and like competitive sports and stuff, but like I don't get mad at any video game, like I don't know what it is, I don't have it in me to like get angry, like even in my like normal life, like I don't get angry. I I think I feel things differently, like I just I get more like upset, like sad at things, but yeah, I don't I don't ever rage.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:09

Well beef said that's because you don't post those clips. That's why.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:14

Hey, you can go through my entire VODs, Matt. Go through my entire VOD. Find find a rage, a raging clip and send it to me.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:24

What is a risk you took with your content that ended up paying off?

SPEAKER_00 1:38:30

Hmm. Honestly, going full time, like starting, well, I mean, I started out pretty much going full time with it when I came back to streaming, and that was a huge risk, like financial risk. Um, and I just I sent I sent it and I did it um because I I felt like it was right and it paid off. And I'm so grateful that I did that because I was able to lock in and like you know, really, really focus on it um and do what made me happy.

SPEAKER_07 1:39:04

So he said, I don't know how to click. Yeah, he doesn't. That's fine.

SPEAKER_00 1:39:20

Mob, that's a deep question too.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:22

If you want to answer it, you're more than welcome to answer it, Frank. If you could relive a moment of life for the rest of your life, what moment would you choose and would it reverse the outcome of that moment to hope to make it better?

SPEAKER_00 1:39:37

Well, there's plenty of moments that I would probably want to relive. Um, if I had to pick one that's on the top of my brain right now, I would want to relive my life in the past week and a half. Um, I won't go into too much detail of what I did during that week, but it was an amazing week. I did get to meet two of my um community members and friends, my close friends. Um, and it was so peaceful and happy and just amazing. Um if I would reverse the outcome of that moment, I hope that would make it better. I don't think, I mean, I would have chose to like be with them the rest like forever and have them around forever, but people have to go to the back to their lives and things like that. Um, unfortunately. But if I could relive it forever, I would do that because it was the best week that I've had in my entire life.

SPEAKER_02 1:40:41

What is the strategy you have, or do you have a strategy when it comes to playing picking out the games you're gonna stream, or do you just kind of sit down at the computer and say, Yep, that's what I want to play?

SPEAKER_00 1:40:55

I mean, I have a main game that I play all the time because a lot of my community is based around that game, which is Valorant. But if I ever do sit down and I'm like, you know, I want to play a different game. Uh sometimes I'm guilty of this. I choose games that would be more entertaining for community members and like better for streaming and things like that. Sometimes I don't play the games that I want to play because I could play them off-stream and things like that. But for the games that I do want to play on stream, I just go off of what I'm feeling, or a lot of the time I'll do a poll in my Discord and say, hey, like what do you guys want to see today? And whatever wins, that's what I play. And regardless, I have fun, even if it's a game I didn't initially think about playing.

SPEAKER_03 1:41:44

What is your next goal or milestone with streaming?

SPEAKER_00 1:41:50

I want to hit partner on Twitch really bad. Um I the only thing I left I need is 75 viewers for like a week. 75 viewers like in the streams, um, which is a lot, but that's my that's my next goal. That and to get my stream scheduled wired and like set in stone.

SPEAKER_02 1:42:12

Now, does TikTok kind of have like a partner program like Twitch or like what does TikTok have? Or do they even have something of that nature?

SPEAKER_00 1:42:22

They don't have like like tiers like that. The only tier type thing that they have is like the um your ranking. So uh that's with like how many gifts you get and things like that, and the more gifts you get, the higher tier you get, and the more payout you get for those gifts um once you get into like B and A tier. Um, that is always nice, of course, but my goal isn't like monetary um for TikTok. I just yeah, I think partnership partner with Twitch would be good, but yeah, TikTok doesn't have anything like that, unfortunately.

SPEAKER_02 1:43:01

Like I said, uh I'm so lost when it comes to TikTok, so I figure you would definitely understand it.

SPEAKER_00 1:43:11

I do, I do. I have TikTok insight.

SPEAKER_02 1:43:15

Yeah, so y'all y'all y'all got questions about TikTok? I know somebody. Yeah, exactly. Where do you see yourself in the next five years?

SPEAKER_00 1:43:34

I see myself streaming, of course, with a you know, even bigger community than I have now, um being happy and enjoying like the games and like being consistent and all of those things. Um But I'm also you know, it's funny that you asked that, because the past like few weeks, especially the past few days, I've been thinking to myself, like, where do I see myself? What do I want in my life? What do I you know? So I'm still kind of figuring it out. But as far as streaming, definitely, you know, still streaming, bigger community. Um still chucking along.

SPEAKER_02 1:44:21

Still getting trolled by by Matt and and all of your your loyal uh community members.

SPEAKER_00 1:44:29

Yes, yes, Matt, Mob, Liv, Nomad, Alicia, all of you guys.

SPEAKER_02 1:44:36

Well, Miss Casper, we've come to the final question, which is the hardest question on this entire questionnaire. But it's always the realest answer. So Miss Casper kills with 581 followers on Twitch, 3,658 followers on TikTok. Someone new comes into this channel and says I'm new to streaming, I want to do it, but I don't I don't know where to start. What would be your best piece of advice you would give that person starting out today?

SPEAKER_00 1:45:15

I would say, of course, decide what you're gonna start on, TikTok, Twitch, what platform you want to start on. I wouldn't start off with multi-streaming, um, because that can get confusing. And make sure that they know why they're starting, why they want to stream, um, and if it's for the right reasons, and what kind of expectations they have, if they're expecting it to just start booming and all these people flooding in, and you know, all these things, and it's gonna be fine and dandy because if they're going into it with that, they're gonna be let down. And I don't want them to go get let down, I want them to succeed, um, especially because they're just starting out, they're fresh, you know, what's the term bushy, bushy-tailed, bright-eyed, bushy-tailed. Yeah. Um and I would tell them to, like I said before, be authentic. And if it's something they really want to do, they're gonna have to push through the slow times, the lulls, and like the harder days, and be consistent.

SPEAKER_07 1:46:24

Consistency is key.

SPEAKER_03 1:46:28

Beautiful advice.

SPEAKER_02 1:46:31

Consistency is key and make sure you get in for the record. Yes, Casper. Well, Casper, like I said, that is the last question I have for you. I just want to take this time to say thank you for sitting down with us and getting to answer and all these questions and just getting to know you further as not just a streamer, but as a person.

SPEAKER_02 1:47:32
