The End Of An Era 

Daily uploads covering politics and culture starting...now

Ill stay, just in case there's a random Old Men of OpTic video

Goddamn Hutch, i was here since 08. Played CoD 4 with you, good times. I wish you the best and will always stay subbed. Good luck!❤

Been watching over the years and this is the healthiest you've ever looked by far, congratulations

As a Scandinavian without any interest in American politics, I'm out. Thank you for many years of content, I wish you all the best!

Phew - gave me a heart attack there! Thought you were gone-gone! I will still stick around on Twitch and RU-vid for you though - you've been a huge part of my life for (maybe most?) of it and will support all of your decisions!

Honestly I'm not a huge Twitch guy but I'm very interested in your politics so this is great. I grew up as a young lad watching Respawn back in the day, and it seems like a natural transition as a full blown 27 year old to keep following you in a more serious area of life. Congrats on your recovery and wish nothing but the best moving forward.

You're looking good Hutch! Face looks full and rockin' that hair. I always miss you on Twitch due to time differences, but I'm happy to hear you'll still be putting out content on RU-vid.

I honestly haven't watched your videos for years but am still subbed, from way back in the CoD days. I immediately saw how much more healthy you look now and am very happy for you. I'm going to stay subbed, and good luck for the future.

End of an era 😢

Excited for this move as I miss a big chunk of the Twitch Streams due to my work schedule. Hope you are wildly successful in this new realm Hutch. See you on Twitch!

You might have been one of the very first people I ever subscribed to on youtube. This video brings back memories of Halo, Destiny, Chess and (of course) COD. With that said, I’ve been waiting for THIS video for a long time now. Congrats on your success and looking forward to this next chapter.

I truly believe that if you enjoying doing it and the money is there, follow that path. The Hutch 2020 shirt that I still wear regularly will always remind me of a great era on RU-vid. Honestly, I'm just glad to hear we're getting Hutch videos on RU-vid again.

I don’t see eye to eye with hutch on politics but I think the reason I’m still subbed and still watch is because he reminds me of a time between 2009-2013 that was peak gaming for me and others. Ill never unsubscribe for that reason. Thanks hutch lol

Hutch has fully become yoDaddy now.

Started watching your videos back in the COD 4 days when I was about 11 or 12. I'm 27 now and safe to say it's been a wild ride. Just wanted to say thank you, and wish you luck. I'm not going anywhere, and it's so great to hear about your health improvements. I'll be left triggering that inbox for sure.

man i remember being sick and staying home from school back in 2010 and watching your MW2 gameplay commentaries. I was in middle school then, I'm 28 now lol. Crazy how time flies. Love you Hutch i'll be sticking around

One of my core memories is watching you discuss the topic of God on a cut comm on cod4 backlot. Really was one of the first times i’ve sat back and challenged my learned beliefs and behaviors. Glad to see you are still on the path of discovery and knowledge. Hoping nothing but the best for you.

A longtime fan, albeit not that involved with your content in recent years, because I'm not really interested in politics, but I'm not going to unsubscribe. I remember crying when you left Respawn, and smiling when you returned. Thank you for providing great gaming-related memories since my childhood, and well done on your journey Hutch. I wish you all the best moving forward.

Very grown up way of dealing with this Hutch. I have been here since before Respawn, way back in the Sniper Tips videos days. I remember being so excited for you joining Machinima when you announced it and being totally bummed when you took that break after respawn. I have enjoyed watching your journey, the ups and the downs, I remember things about this channel that are long lost and forgotten by many. The change in YT direction isn’t a shock and it’s likely not my cup of tea(I’m in the UK) but I wish you the absolute best. Thanks for everything.

Absolute legend of the gaming RU-vid scene, it's a shame to not have you make gaming content anymore but I'm grateful for the years of stuff you've given us. Best of luck with the new direction

Been here since the COD4 days, brother. Watching your growth over time has been awesome for this old dude. Keep moving Forward towards your passions.

doesnt matter, been subbed since machinima - you're an og and i respect what you do

Stoked for this. Really glad to hear you're happy, healthy, and feeling fulfilled. I've been following you since CoD 4 days, and tbh I grew out of COD content years ago. But I always appreciated your pragmatism and sensible takes when it came to politics. Excited for what's to come from this channel!

It’s so crazy. I remember when you popped back online after quitting respawn. I was struggling at the time then too. Thanks for always being one of the realest sources of internet content there is ❤️

Man I hope this finally gets you to 1 mil subs. You've always deserved it

Hutch, I've been watching for years at this point and it's just great to see you as healthy as you are. Pursuing a shift like this can be daunting for a channel known for one niche or another but I think you did a hell of a job with this update video. Glad to see you pursuing your interests, and I'm excited to see what's to come!

Understandable and i hope you have a lot of fun making politic videos! I just wanna say though, thank you for the years of video game videos. Been here as early as your first shoutout vid to Seananners, and to me its quite awesome to see you still doing videos and even doing better for yourself. Much love, from an old call of duty fan.

I’ve been following you since I was in high school man. Feels like 15 years ago, or however long it’s been. Imma 100% still be here following, watching, and interacting whenever I can. I f*kn love you bro ✊

I wonder how much of the shift in your viewership's interest has to do with us aging with you. I've been following since the COD 4 days, and my interests are shifting in a similar way. When I was younger, I definitely viewed you (parasocially) as an older brother figure, and I'm glad you're one of the few RU-vidrs who haven't been canceled. I'm excited to see what the future holds for this new direction and appreciative that you're not a groomer.

Thank you for all the wonderful contents since 2010, 14 years as a fan with you, Woods, Nanners and Sark Will stay sub just to see things goes for all 4 of you. Take care Hutch, much love to all fans and you

I’ve loved watching you from day one, no matter the content. My best friend who I used to watch you and the machinima guys with back in the days recently passed, so seeing you grow old and become happier and healthier really makes my heart warm. You look really good! Well done.

Man, this one feels crazy. Can't say I've been watching lately, but I haven't been watching anyone lately... or like at all in the last year. Regardless, I feel like I've known you like an older brother from these videos stemming back to pre Machinima. Got to experience a very fun EDC at one point which, I hope, my wife and I never forget. Games have started to feel...less important, less impactful and less emotional and it's showing quite a lot. You changed a lot of that feeling for me a while back and I still go back and watch old videos or re-uploads of some of my favorites. Can't say I understand or want to understand politics right now but I'll try and stick around for this new chapter. Heres to the old and the new. Cheers man, really glad you are feeling better now.

You are the man Hutch, I have been a follower for over 15+ Years, Twitch Sub for 3. I was here because of Machinima and your Gaming Videos; I will still be here for the Politics and Pop Culture discussions. I don't fully align with all the political views but can appreciate your hard work and research you do on topics. Your willingness to have these open discussions and your desire to make our country better cannot be undermined. This change could very well elevate your persona to a whole other level. You will always be a Gaming Icon, here is to a better future!

Love you Hutch. Been watching since 2011 and this is perhaps the best you've ever looked. Wishing you success in your future endeavors and hope you find success in this pivot. Cheers!

Good for you Hutch, I don’t always agree with your takes but appreciate how measured and thoughtful your approach is. Best of luck, you’ll smash it!

One of the first RU-vidrs I ever subscribed to, inspired me to make cod videos back in 08-12. I'll miss your gameplays bud, but best wishes for you and your family

I'm 4 days late - but watching now. I started watching Hutch in 2009 when I came across a video titled 'How Not To Suck at MW2' and pretty much followed every video and most streams up until 2016 (some of my fav times were playing Monopoly ON STREAM with one of childhood heroes). I then would check in every now and then on the channel, watched a few OMOO videos and always saw his tweets. I started watching when I was 12 years old, I'm now 27... Hutch is not really a RU-vidr to me - more of a older uncle or a friend who I've grown through life with and no matter what he does I'll always check in and support. I'm from the UK and not SUPER into Politics or American Politics, but I'm just content he is finally healthy and most importantly HAPPY. Love you & proud of you Hutch you bald fuck x

Let’s gooooo. Been following since 2008. I absolutely LOVE this evolution!! As a highly intelligent being (and a bartender), I’ve shy’ed away from most political discourse. However, I would actually be willing to talk about anything and everything sociopolitically. Thankful for you and your content!!

Sorry to hear about your sister. Very happy to see you're doing this well mentally and physically and steering into this new opportunity. Best of luck!

It’s crazy that I’ve been following you for like 15 years, you’ve always been my favourite, politics isn’t my thing per se but I still enjoy watching your streams and videos. Being from Australia I learn a lot about US Politics through you haha

Hutch, I've been watching you for years. I'm so incredibly happy for you and where you are in life. Congrats dude.

All love Hutch, long time sub- looking forward to the next chapter

Well, this is a nice surprise. I watched you back in the SeaNanners Hidden days and I loved every minute you were in it. I appreciated all the intelligent humor and insights you brought to you your videos and the banana crew as well and looking forward to the discussions youll make on the American political system. Can't wait to see more and good luck with the future endavors as well!

I'm pretty sure I subscribed to you sometime around 2008/2009 and remember being a teenager watching you, Tejbz, Seananners, Blame Truth, xCal, etc. I'm 32 now and it's just crazy how fast the time has flown by. I'm Canadian and I've been keeping a closer eye on American politics. I really hope the majority of Americans make the right choice for your country come November. Anyway I've always enjoyed your gaming content and will always continue to be subscribed to you. Thanks for all the laughs, tips and tricks and lastly, being so awesome in the gaming community all these years!

Love you Hutch. Do your thing and never lose yourself in what you do. I believed in you back then and always will moving forward. It actually is pretty dope to see your growth and transition into this "new age" of content creation. Been watching since I was 12, and I'm now damn near 30- we're locked in dude 😂😂 I don't care if you start making videos about wet carrots, I'll be here brotha! Peace && Love Bro!

shit. Rip used to watch this dude when I was 11 or 12 on machinima. He really helped open my perspective on the world growing up in a small southern town under 1000. I hope your life treats you well hutch.

No matter what you do here in the future, I just want to say THANK YOU HUTCH!! Thank you for the 1,000's of hours of entertainment you have provided all of us over the years.

Damn this life thing just keeps getting faster and faster. Good luck man.

I've been here yeeeaars and appreciate the joy you've shared since Machinima days. I donated to your sisters family back in the days and so on. But it really is end of an era since I have literally zero intrest to any politics or drama on RU-vid. It feels so weird to farewell but thanks once again and good luck moving forward.

I love you Hutch! This has me excited. You've been in my peripheral for 10-13 years now. I've not been subscribed, but now I am as this is exactly the content I consume these days. Good luck with everything! I see great things coming from this. You've a knack for being politically careful and a great speaker and conversationalist, and it's about time you took advantage of it :)

You're looking really healthy and great! Still going to stay subbed, even as a non-American I have always found your views refreshing and hear you on the video games front. Looking forward to seeing more!

Been here since cod 4, youtube has unsubbed me many times along the way but I was always drawn in with your mind and your perspective. I am from the UK, I dont have a say or opinion on your polotics however I do love to hear perspective of it. I'm here for you man, I may be quiet in the comments but I'm here always. I appreciate your content man

Me: Man - I haven't seen a video from Hutch in forever! .... *checks channel* Yeaaaah - I get that. Glad I stuck around and am sticking around

Been watching since Respawn Hutch, glad you're doing good. You look awesome, btw. Glad you're in a better place. 🥰 Long time fan from Scotland.

Maybe not on this account but I've been there since roughly the beginning, bro. You're actually such a big part of my life. Brings tears. Love you, bro. From a struggling, neurodivergent af 32 year old guy from Perth, Australia. I'll still be subbed. I Feel so in sync with you sometimes. It's wild. I check in every now and then.

I've been watching your stuff since respawn. I'm now a current twitch subscriber and I have enjoyed watching your coverage, debates and opinions on politics. I live in Europe, but my parents live in Texas currently, so US news and politics are very relevant to me, and I feel like watching your content on twitch for quite some time now (from the coverage on other livestreams, opinions, and at times frustrating debates) I stay informed and in a way feel connected to my parents who experience the results of the socio-political situation of America first hand. I knew already that this was coming, but I want to formally leave a comment to show my appreciation for the channel, the old and the new. Good luck, and till the next stream/video 😬👍

Got me scared for a second there, Hutchy! You bastard. I gotta admit I'll miss watching you play but I massively respect the move and I wish you all the best on this next path. Looking forward to the new content, mate!

I've been watching here on youtube since the cod4 days. It's been great tuning in on twitch in more recent years and I've been a fan of the transition into political commentary that is practical not sensationalized and nuanced with your own personal experiences. Sure I follow on twitter and tune into twitch when I can but that's not always convenient. So I'm glad to hear I can enjoy your content here on youtube now. As a side, it's been great to see you thriving both professionally and personally recently. Now lets go win this in November.

Been watching you since division 1. Congrats on moving forward and doing what you want to do.

Been following you since I was like 14 and you were discussing socrates on Crash. I I don't see myself stopping anytime soon. Wish you only the best. All love.

old times man, thanks for all the fish with seananners and others I will still sub to you, even if I don't watch you much anymore

Dam its crazy its been this long. I remember subbing to you back in like 08 I believe? When you made that World at War sniper tips back on airfield map with the Mosin Nagant without the scope. Definitely helped me cultivate how I played CoD over the years and even to this day! (Went from a .9 to like a 1.2 KD wise all the years back). Its insane I remember the years of Optic Hutch, Machinima Hutch with the guys, (Seananners, Sark, etc.) the montages you would shoutout like Mazarini's Play with Soul, hell I remember you used to work at a restaurant and the roommate you had at the time Marty (Marty Mar the Party Star) in one of your earliest vids. Tho I'm not really into politics I do want to stay subbed and check in and see how you'll be doing for years to come. Just wanted to say, thanks for everything Hutch! (AKA shaun0728, Hutchisy0daddy) P.S I remember when you listed 7 and 3/4 inches fully erect on your bio wayyyyyyyy back then xD. Just a funny thought. (Proof?????????)

Been here since teste and the testicles. Aint going anywhere mate. Take it to em

You’re a true living legend and I thank you for everything. My sub stays.

Respectfully Hutch, it doesn't matter what you do on this channel, I'm staying subscribed 👊🏾

Hi Hutch, you do look great and healthy. Lately I couldnt manage to keep up with your streams, due to lack of extra free time, so this will be a good change for some of us, to keep up with you (also not on twiter...). I am glad that you are still intersted in the work you do and I believe that its natural to progress...as did I and a lot of us, from the time of Respawn... So I am looking forward to what youll do 👍 Good luck, as always

Hutch you do you buddy. I remember camp hutch and the no scopes in COD4.

Love you buddy, I've been following you for a very long time. Some of my all time favourite CoD content has derived from you and OMoO. You look amazing, and in ecstatic to see you're happy and doing well; but this is where we depart as I don't follow American politics. Best Wishes ❤

I’ve been a fan since 2010 or so, since the respawn days. It’s funny you bring up the occupy movement because I remember there was a real moments with respawn vid that Wood put up with you talking about the occupy movement. I didn’t understand a word of it back then when I was a little dumbass kid but it’s cool to see you still stick to your beliefs all these years later. I don’t use twitter anymore but when I did I would always be interested in your political takes. I really do hope you continue to post more of that stuff on YT just so someone like me who is off of twitter now can see it, cuz it’s always interesting. Good luck to you man and I’ll be watching!

Sounds great bud, let’s go on this adventure together!

Let’s go! Hutch! If there’s anyone who can take the Destiny route it’s you. My best wishes and I’m definitely sticking around.🗣️🦅

Eyo thanks for a good what , 14 years so far! Much respect brotherman for making such a video to answer the forthcoming questions. Looking forward to being here another 14 my man!

it's been an awesome 14 years hutch, glad you're doing what you want to do!

Looking healthy and Happy Hutch you’ve still got my sub 👍

glad to see you moving on hutch. Will always miss your old content, but looking forward to your future.

Not many channels I have remained subbed to for so long and I will actually be tuning in more now as you're moving over to the content that I moved to a few years ago, COD isnt really my thing any more and more chill games to play while listening to podcasts or long form political videos is my vibe so I'm super happy to see this from you. Good move man!

Been following you forever so it’s a sad day in the sense that you’re done with gaming content but I’m glad your life is getting back on track. Keep being you but I’ll miss the OG hutchisyodaddy

I wasn't expecting this, but I fully support it! I wish you the best of luck from here on out. Thanks for the years of entertainment so far, and here's to future endeavors! ❤️

Hutch, I've watched you off an on since before I can remember, and I dropped off the past few years because of my life changing. I can say I literally didnt recognize you, so glad youre getting healthy and happy! Always loved your content and glad youre doing whats best for you!

You are one of the rare people who actually invests a bunch of time trying to learn before he speaks on a topic. You might be a little more left than me but I look forward to the content going forward.

I'm not too keen on politics videos too often for my mental health, so I may not tune in as often. However, I will NOT unsubscribe, I've been following you for so long and wish you all the best with this new direction. 💪

Been a fan since 2009 when I saw one of our MW2 sniping videos. Still here and still happy to support your content, even if I don't agree 100% politics-wise. Best of luck with everything bud.

been here since 2009 and you inspired me to try and upload myself. Best of luck bud

I'm excited for this evolution. I also haven't been watching for years but the old machinima respawn team was a big part of my childhood. You're looking super healthy btw dude congrats!

I'm glad you're still here and being your absolute best, Hutch.

Have followed you since the Respawn days, followed your polical conversations with great interest. You and I have tweeted back and forth a handful of times, agreements and disagreements both. Had to bail on Twitter because it became a cesspool so glad to have another avenue to engage with you. Thanks for all the work you put in, looking forward to the next chapter.

Been watching since I was a little kid since the 2008 days. Although I'm from Australia, I'm super into politics and despite our vast differences in political belief, I'm always in your twitch streams and love to hear you discuss the other side that I'm not too educated or familiar with. Keen to see where you go next with this, you're gonna kill it, and good luck!

You might have been the first person I ever subbed to back in the day. You, ravage, sea nanners etc. I lost my sister 6 years ago so I know your struggle. As a Brit now living in Canada I don’t really have any interest in US politics. I’ll keep an eye on your channel to see if anything peeks my interest but until then, I wish you well in love and life. Stay strong and smash it going forward! Much love dude ❤🇨🇦

crazy to see everyone leave RU-vid live. Been watching you since I started high school and I'm 30 now. Thanks for all the great content along the way and I'll continue to watch!

How does today Hutch look younger than Hutch 15 years ago? xD This freaks me out but I'm mega happy for you. I'll stay subbed, haven't watched actively for many years but still love you as a creator and a person :D Thanks for all the memories! I still have the trials evolution videos with you and nanners locked into my head whenever I hear your voice. Used to just sit there and listen to you two. Loved it.

What's up guys, my name is hutch! I make call of duty videos and I put them on the internet ❤ happy to see you happy

Was here in the early 2000’s for CoD and staying for your political perspective. Loving this Hutch evolution, we need more people to speak up like he does. Looking forward to this!

Love you always Hutch! Been subbed before respawn before the breakup that long ago and grew with you

Been subbed since ‘09/‘10, will always stay subbed. Glad you’re pursuing what makes you happy and successful. Best of luck to you and your future endeavors. Stay blessed

Enjoy life, have been watching you since zzirgrizz and respawn days and appreciate what you did for my childhood then.

I will say, I'm more moderate right, but I'm also Canadian, so its a little different up here, but I'm glad you are switching it up instead of giving up, i always have enjoyed your content since the old days, and will be sticking around to hear you take on things, even if some things i might not agree on, i always appreciate someone else's perspective, because if you can do that, then you are just living in an echo chamber and eventually become radical, on either side. excited to see what you put out and also very happy to finally see you healthy, i remember machinima days when i was legit worried.

Would love a compilation of the then to now. I may not be as interested in the new content but I'm staying around for old times sake.

This is a heartbreaker. Will always be grateful for the content you provided. Glad you are healthy and hope everything is successful for you. Love you dude take care.

I'm not American, have no real interest in the politics, but will always be a fan and it's great to see you doing so well! Look forward to your next appearance on PKA too!
