He's a two time sexual predator twice caught who made every choice himself lets not act like the whole world was against him and turn him into a victim.

[@MrTorgueHighFiveFlexington]

How is he a 2 time predator? He was forced out of WT after an investigation that found no evidence of any wrongdoing on his part yet the cancel brigade wouldn’t let it go

[@eRON3000]

​@@captaincanada67you're what's wrong with this world

[@advictoriam3106]

@@captaincanada67 what an absolute moron. He said he was single when he wasn't and asked for pictures of a woman years ago. This time a woman who shows clear sociopathic traits made vague claims stating that it was repeat behaviour from before. Adam has now cleared up all that happened and again he has done nothing predatory. You are genuinely a vile individual to make such claims with no evidence to back them up. You, and all those like you, are diluting words like predator by using it falsely and as a result those who are real victims of actual monsters have their horrific events diluted into less than they are. Truly disgusting work on your part.

I´m so glad he is appearing online again. The way he glows up when talking about games, is genuinly so lovely!

[@HobbyNight]

Couldn't agree more!

[@AcornPlays]

OH MY GOD HE'S BACK, I'm so happy Honestly thank you so much Angela for coming out and backing up his story, standing by him publicly as well as privately. I've always understood why NRB hasn't been able to do that, and if it's too difficult for Adam to work there again I'd understand. I'm just glad to see him back.

[@shawnwolf5961]

I am going to be real, I don't understand why NRB couldn't do that. Aren't people supposed to be -innocent- until proven guilty, rather than guilty until proven innocent? I still watch NRB, but it hasn't been the same without Adam and I hope he can return now.

[@PenguinWarlocks]

​@@shawnwolf5961I have watched NRB back when it was early COVID stuff with only online. The channel has struggled since he has left. He is such a good presenter.

[@johnj2784]

@@shawnwolf5961they placed him under suspension during the investigation, the correct thing for a company to do. It was Adam who decided to resign as he didn’t want the rest of the cast and crew to be dragged through and criticised for something that didn’t involve them. Now with potential legal proceedings in the works it is best for the company to stay silent until everything has been resolved.

[@joshpierce-gi5zt]

​@@johnj2784all of that. I imagine when this gets taken care of in a legal matter, Adam WILL return to WT, PFK, and NRB..... IF...... If those companies are still around. It sure seems like they're having some financial difficulties. Don't you find it a little odd that both Dan and Pete left essentially at the same time? Also during the time that they've REALLY been pushing patreon. I think Dan and Pete were encouraged to find work elsewhere and became budget cuts. Don't you find it odd we don't see Laurie on WT or PFK anymore? I'm telling you.... they aren't doing well anymore.

[@johnj2784]

@@joshpierce-gi5zt I don’t think they are doing as well as they once were, but I’m not sure everything is down to budgetary constraints. Dan got his dream of getting into theatre school and a friend is helping him money wise to afford that, so he was always going to take that opportunity regardless. No idea about Pete’s reasons, could well have been what you suggest. As for Laurie I think the reason we don’t see him on WT and PFK anymore is because he is helming and running 3 other channels, NRB, Chaotic Neutral and CTRL Freaks. I think asking him to do more than that would just be too much, so something had to go.

[@FinBrennan]

This was so incredibly refreshing to watch after the hellish year and a bit these two have gone through. I’m hoping that this is at least the start of so sort of KZbin comeback for Adam 🤞

[@robillustrates6949]

[@ajpfore]

Was also very happy to hear this. I wonder if he is still friends with the Cultaholic crew.

[@AcornPlays]

​@ajpfore I believe Ross said in a video they're not super close but there's no beef. They got really fed up of the "when is Adam coming back" comments and the fact he nearly tanked the company as soon as it launched. I think the fences have been mended but there's a zero percent chance of a collab in future.

[@richsloma]

I’m really happy to hear that, despite losing his job, he didn’t lose his friends. Hope he is back on their channels one day.

[@Billdous]

It genuinely brought me joy to hear that Adam is still friends and playing games with the NRB crew.

[@TheLastSane1]

Anyone who followed the whole thing, they have always stayed friends and were very open about their support for him. I know they have gone to wrestling events together. So I am happy to see they still do it.

[@JonathanH71]

It was thanks to Adam that I have the board games. Wavelength, Say Whaaat?, Hit the Silk Cheese Thief and Escape from Atlantis. I hope he actually sees this and thank you.

[@dougl1758]

Yes this guy has costed me loads of money also. Half a video and Adam would sell me on a board game and I would instantly buy them. Most are still factory sealed because he was playing with other players and I’m alone

[@tyrroo]

Adam is the reason I bought Take 5 and Cockroach Poker, and my gaming group absolutely loves both of them!

[@JonathanH71]

I have a friend that gets really competitive when we play Atlantis.

[@turnipcrazy]

@@dougl1758 Same. I don't buy board games because I don't have friends to come over and play, but I love playing them. See Adam and NRB play makes me feel like I'm almost playing along with them.

We need to see him with Sully again, if only once. Nobody raised me to want it, but... I want it.

[@braverleonheart5035]

Without Adam, I wouldn’t have half an interest in board games. Since he left No Rolls Barred, it’s not been the same, so I’m really glad that he’s feeling able to come back online and that you can give him a space he feels comfortable. I’ve started collecting myself, though I don’t have too many people to play with, so when I was able to live vicariously through Adam’s love of games, I really enjoyed the hobby despite not being able to play too much myself. Thanks for bringing him back.

[@ritchardo6459]

Thank you Angela for providing this platform for Adam to be able to re-share his enthusiasm for the hobby and hopefully start to get his career back on track. Like many others, I was drawn into board gaming again through him and he’s been very much missed.

[@TheDutchStarWarsGuy]

ADAM! Awesome to see you here, I hope to see both of you back on NRB soon!

[@CultofCinema]

Adam got my better half into board game collecting and watching wrestling videos online. His passion for gaming really shines through and it makes it extra special when he’s playing or chatting about it. I’m so glad you had him on and look forward to more team ups . @HobbyNight you’ve done so much to help the community . Your positivity is incredible

[@Huskersteeler91]

Thank you for having him on!

[@neveryellowgames]

Adam's hosting skills, graceful defeats and well deserved (not patchwork) wins were so entertaining to watch. If there is no road back to NRB I would love to see him start a new with his own boardgame channel. Now to sit down and enjoy the video.

[@reecetomm]

I so wish for Adam to return to NRB and/or Wrestletalk as soon as possible. Hearing him mention how he’s still playing board games with various members of the crew makes me hope it can be soon. I don’t know if it will happen but I live in hope. As much as I still enjoy the people on those channels, neither of them are as entertaining as when Adam is there.

[@tristanbrightman5539]

I think Angela deserves so much praise. She lost work because of Adam's irresponsible response to someone being shitty about her, and I think most people would be tempted to sit back and watch him suffer similar treatment from that person and enjoy the "karma". Her choosing to forgive, and to focus on doing something to mend the serious harm done to Adam is just A+ humaning kindness.

[@gunnersfan111]

So glad to have Adam back, been binging all the old Quizzlemania's and it me realise how much I've missed him and how grateful I am to him for getting me back into wrestling and through lockdown in particular

Hi adam lovely to see you back on KZbin , i know youve been through a lot you dont deserve over the past year, so if by any chance you read this, ive been through a lot myself the past few years, a break up, my dad got diagnosed with alzhiemers, there have been problem with people in his family, and it lead to me suffering a lot with depression. Anyway one of the few times i could forget about things and smile during the tough times was due to wrestling and wrestling KZbinrs. So i just wanted to thank you, your content like quizlemania, your booking videos on wrestletalk, the occasional board game content i watched, it all helped me a lot during a bad time. Thanks Adam i hope you can get through the rough time and get back to doing things that make you happy.

[@DeanCarruthers]

It's wonderful to see Adam smiling and talking about his passions once more. Angela, I really want to thank you for facilitating his return to KZbin and talking about this hobby that we all love. I also really enjoyed your discussion about Mansions of Madness, I know you suggested a painting live stream together and I'm here for that, but I would also *love* to see you guys play a game of mansions together if that's somehow possible.

So great to hear Adam has been able to continue playing board games with the No Rolls Barred gang offscreen. Loved to hear how much he loves King's Dilemma too - I've only played it once, but did get the opportunity to explore it a second time through the solo computer game, which was a great way to revisit some of the same thing, and yet have some completely different parts of the world opened up (admittedly, solo-King's Dilemma is a lot quicker to play than the board game with friends over the best part of a year, but it's definitely better to play the board game first, so as not to ruin the experience with friends).

Thank you for giving him a platform, after the initial comeback I was cautious of his return, and it took a while to come around but he showed genuine desire for change…however this second incident seemed very unfair, and robbed him of an opportunity to share something he was so passionate to share. I’m a Warhammer 40,000 fan who expanded to other tabletop and board games watching Blampied who I followed from my other hobby (wrestling) produce content for NRB. I hope you giving him content gives him the platform he worked so hard to get, back to him. I am also happy to see him in good spirits also.
