I wonder what percentage of Shaun's viewers know that there ever was a Jen? Something that I think every youtuber needs to learn is that if you're on a team then all contributing voices need to be heard by the audience in the final product, because that's the only level that 90% of the viewership will engage with.
In a couple of HBomb's more recent videos, he seems to have figured this out because he makes sure his producer is referenced directly so his audience knows that he isn't a one-man show. Hell, the Game Grumps make their editors into minor recurring characters in their Let's Plays (though I haven't watched them in a few years so idk if they still do it).
Yeah agreed. Barry of the Grumps got so popular he's no longer part of the Grumps but has his own successful Twitch career. I've been in his streams sometimes they are fun. Glad Hbomb is giving his producer credit, on twitter he was saying how he realized how much he NEEDS a producer to focus him.
If you're a youtuber or influencer or whatever and you've hired an editor or something, you've officially become petite bourgeoisie. While this isn't that bad in and of itself, it sometimes shows how one's material conditions can alter their political beliefs. It seems like Shaun is principled enough (then again I don't make the mistake of following breadtubers on twitter). Though I would advocate leftist 'content creators' who get popular enough should form media collectives/co-ops rather than raking in the majority of the patreon money for themselves.

That's a good point. I'm aware because I'm pretty online, but I've never really been aware of who Jen was or what role she played in the production of the videos or when she was around, because I've never known the channel as anything but just "Shaun"
