hi I'm meat Canyon AKA Papa meat AKA
Hunter whatever I haven't showed my face
on this channel in a long long time
usually I'm in cartoon form because you
know I make cartoons it's silly I'm not
real I am making this video I don't know
what I'm calling this video I was
thinking about calling it like goodbye
things are changing things are
definitely changing this year has been
very eye openening for me I have been
doing these kinds of videos for like 5
years now or coming up on 5 years and
I'm at this place where I just think I
can do better honestly I think that like
everything that I'm making now is in
service to something negative and by
that I mean uploading things every two
weeks is all good and fun but I feel
like I'm doing it to try to get as many
subscribers as I can to try to make as
much money as I can you know to keep
this business floating up I have this
like weird Fascination that I have to
you know upload all the time and do all
the things to be a part of the uh
Creator Zeitgeist or culture maybe
that's how I'll get respect from my
peers and everything like that it just
sucks honestly it's [ __ ] terrible if
I'm going to be completely transparent I
have not been very happy making any of
these videos for a long time it doesn't
mean that I think that any of the stuff
that I make is relatively bad even
though there's some people that say it
is that's hurtful but I'll take it you
know it is what it is some of it's not
even criticism all right some of it's
just downright mean but that's okay but
like I mean like looking back at this
year the first video I made was Logan
Paul steals your wallet yeah he's a
thief you know is he a bad guy I don't I
don't know him personally but he does
some dicey things I don't know but to
make a cartoon about it do I really give
a [ __ ] at the end of the day now Velma
the Velma is a panic attack I mean what
who who cares the show's bad I mean I
don't know right the whole idea I guess
is what I'm saying is that like the most
fulfilling things I've made recently
have been Melvin getting to know that
character and getting to figure out what
the [ __ ] I want to do with him has been
really fun smelly Smash Bros was a big
one stink F oh of these videos where I'm
kind of like making my own monsters and
stuff have been a lot more fulfilling
honestly and uh while I don't want to
completely ostracize my fan base because
I know that you guys mostly show up for
the parodies and stuff I just want to be
transparent that like moving forward
it's probably going to be a while until
I make something again I want to
actually spend time making something
that I enjoy and I don't want to be put
on this like pressure cooker to maintain
this kind of upload ual that really I'm
the only person enforcing it feels very
counterproductive and it's really been
based in fear of like how am I going to
pay my bills and all this stuff but I
have like another Channel called Papa
meat that's doing really well and if you
haven't heard of that feel free to check
it out we post like every 3 days but
that's becoming more of like my money
maker actual job thing now so I'm kind
of at this place where I'm like if this
channel is supposed to be a place where
I'm trying to actually creatively be
genuine and be you know make something
respectful or respectable why the [ __ ]
am I trying to like put such a time
limit on everything it doesn't make
sense everything doesn't seem to make
sense right now and uh I definitely am
not quitting making cartoons I'm
definitely not like swearing Off
parodies even maybe there could be a
time down the line where I'm like I want
to make a parody of
Bluey nightmare fuel
Bluey whoa oh my God you know who knows
if I have the idea and I want to make it
I'll [ __ ] make it I'm not going to
point a gun at the back of my head
anymore and be like Blue's red hot right
now I got to get in there while the
get's good I'm not going to do it
anymore I just I can't I'm not going to
do it so I just wanted to say I'm not
going to put a time limit also when I'm
going to come back or anything but I
just want you know that like there's
been times before where creators I like
just kind of stop uploading I don't know
if you've ever had that happen too but I
just wanted to give the respect back I
think that you all deserve because for
four to 5 years now you guys have
completely changed my life you've
completely given so much purpose and
meaning to this thing that I love and I
think that that's awesome and I wanted
to just make sure that that respect was
shown by this creative change or even
not even creative change this change
that has that is going to happen that is
happening I just wanted you all to be
aware of it to whoever wanted to click
on this video whoever cares all right
because it sucks being left in the dark
about things so if you do legitimately
enjoy my the stuff that I do and you're
kind of like what's happening just know
that like there are things being may
this isn't a sto anything but I want to
be able to upload a video and have it be
art I want it to be something that's
like you know even if it gets a fraction
of the views or attention of something
else I can at least be like damn that
was cool I'm I'm that I'm happy that I
made that and I think that right now the
biggest limitation is my own fear of
change and time those are the two
enemies that I'm facing so I just wanted
to let you all know that that's really
where I'm going here and that I just
wanted to give an extreme thank you to
all of the patrons that have supported
me and these cartoons and will continue
to support these bigger more ambitious
projects that I think are going to be
just awesome and I really hope that
people are stoked about the future of
what we have in store CU I really do
think that with time I think that we're
going to make a lot of stuff that's a
lot more Evergreen a lot more genuine
special Soulful colorful I don't other
words that breed life that's fun and you
know you can be proud to watch you can
be proud to be a fan kind of thing and
just to thank you to all the viewers who
have stuck with me for all this this
time and this upload schedule and you
know have endured all of these videos
throughout the years because it they've
been so fun to make but at this point in
time I think it's it's time to change I
think that it is time to re-evaluate
kind of how I approach these videos and
how I approach uh storytelling in
general and I'm very very excited I know
it it looks like I'm dead inside but
that's just because I'm very tired from
really this entire year the the the last
four years have been extremely draining
so hopefully next time you see me I'll
be like 150 PBS
lighter
maybe healthy I'll get good sleep
that'll be nice and also you know like I
said too if you're wanting more
consistent stuff if you just like
looking at my pretty face or if you
think that you would enjoy seeing more
of like some of the other wacky ideas
that we do I do have my papa meat
channel it's seriously so so fun it's
incredible how easy things can feel and
be whenever you're having fun making
them we got just so much awesome stuff
planned there where we're going to be
taking a lot of the animators that have
been working with me on this channel and
incorporating that into like a Who
Framed Roger Rabbit kind of vibe on that
channel with 2D and liveaction mixed
together we have big ass puppets planned
we have props we have VFX we have sets
we're building really right now that
channel is just like exploding with
creativity and so much love that it's
really Shin the light on how limiting
this channel is right now and how I want
to get it back to feeling fun again and
that's a Perpetual thing about evolving
if I did this forever you know and I've
been see [ __ ] I've been seeing this
thing for years it's the same thing over
and over again try making cartoons every
two weeks for four [ __ ] years and try
tell me you're not going to recycle some
ideas dude all right uh but all in all I
just wanted to say thank you so much and
like I said you know if you came to the
channel for the parodies and primarily
the parodies and stuff I appreciate you
I don't know how much of that's going to
be in the future not saying it's going
to be none but might be a while so if
you're just like you know if you're
tipping the cap here then I appreciate
for stopping by for everybody else who
has supported the channel who is looking
forward to the future and that kind of
thing I just want to say thank you so
much for your support this year has been
such an eyeopener and I just want to say
thank you for everybody who has shown up
shared the videos you know commented
left so many nice comments all the
comments I do see them and I appreciate
it even some of those nasty ones but uh
I appreciate you and uh I do look
forward to seeing you sometime in the
future I don't know when that will be
but uh just know that I got some stuff
Brewing just give me some time and I
hope that uh whenever I come back it can
be something that we all really stoked
with as well you know I've I've done so
much on this channel already I've had
the viral videos you know I've gained
all the bunch of Subs all that kind of
stuff you get all the all the views and
everything and then you kind of find out
that oh [ __ ] that doesn't translate to
fulfillment it doesn't translate to
respect it doesn't translate to the
overarching goal of what I'm trying to
do which is make videos that will
hopefully be here long after I'm gone if
the site is still up or can be viewed
many years from now and still be you
know it can still put a smile or Terror
in people's face that's fun but you find
out very quickly that just because you
get all these things it really doesn't
translate to you know great positives
that you thought so instead of chasing
those now I'd like to just be I guess
take that more genuine approach of
wanting to make something just because I
think it's awesome and not because I
think it would just do good numbers wise
if that makes sense so take care
everybody
have a good rest of your holidays and we
will be seeing you soon I'm not going to
say Happy New Year you [ __ ] yourself in
the Happy New
Year
