JAACKMAATE vs IMALLEXX: Heated Face-To-Face Debate

Last Wednesday JaackMaate (that's me) uploaded a video response to Alfie Deyes entitled 'MY BRUTALLY HONEST RESPONSE TO ALFIE DEYES'. In that very video, JaackMaate critiques his old podcast partner ImAllexx and refers to him as a "bottler". ImAllexx took to Twitter livestream to call Jaack out on a number of his alleged wrongdoings. Today, the pair meet up again for the first time since the podcast split, to go over everything, face-to-face. It's a long one, so maybe watch in parts.

If only Alfie was big enough to face Jack face to face.

[@KathySong1]

Jack would crucify him and Alfie knows it. Jacks intelligence and honesty far outweighs any that Alfie might have. That will be the thing that shows Alfie up the most

honestly everyone needs a friend like jack, someone who tells you what you need to hear and not what you want to hear

[@sarah-my1xp]

Sarah Presley if I were a youtuber I’d NEED a friend like Jack to give me honest feedback! The amount of youtubers surrounded by “yes men” would keep anyone out of the loop

[@lukexavier9770]

sarah yeah but not in public - I’d much rather they told me directly and didn’t talk about stuff I’d done wrong to hundreds of thousands of people who will go on to (oftentimes) hold a swayed view and support purely that side of it without consideration for a larger picture - alongside insulting ‘me’

[@shroomii3414]

Publicly isn't the way, though.

[@GGMatt]

Everyone says this, but as soon as they have a friend like that they usually neglect them or get tired of their honesty. I would know, I'm the guy that calls out people's bullshit and have lost plenty of long term friendships because people can't handle the truth. It's fucked up, but people are always happier when others are licking their ass and validating their bad decisions rather than having someone criticise them. In short, people are fake as fuck and claim they want one thing when really they want another.

That Alfie video was poor. He kept inturupting, was far too defensive and didn't let Alex or Fraiser really speak and explain. He can't take any criticisms.

[@JoJo-jk4jm]

Alex was too busy agreeing with Alfie to explain anything!!

Alex was intimidated, but he kept interrupting Fraser when he tried to argue.

[@zzkng1]

they’ve also deleted every negative comment on the video. about 10k dislikes yet you won’t find a single comment that’s not on alfie’s side. it’s pathetic

[@calzero8003]

exactly, he seemed to shut people down for how they think.

[@showmoke]

Alfie can now afford to silence viewers who hate on him or say negative things about him. When you’re a multimillionaire, he doesn’t really need 1 million plus viewers watching his videos any more.

I know this isn’t my podcast channel; but as I “called Alex out” from this channel I fully believe his right of reply should be broadcast in the same way. I’m actually glad that we were able to have this conversation. Please let me know what you guys think down below, I will be replying all evening and weekend. Cheers you lot.

I agree, Alex recently did a collab with someone (idk who he is or if he's even a KZbinr,) titled the weirdest couple, and the other guy was very cruel and harsh towards the couple, it was kinda disappointing to see Alex go along with the guys, I've never seen him be so outright mean like that before. The comments all agreed that Alex just went along with it, being just as mean I adore Alex, but between the way he handled the whole Alfie situation and that it's obvious that he can be a bit of a follower. I want to add that I watched another xollab with Alex and Atozy and at 1 point he said "I'm not being mean for the sake of being mean." Which was 1 of the biggest wants about the bad collab. So atleast (to me) it seems that he genuinely tries to grow and learn from his mistakes.

[@IAmRedherrings]

Bryan would destroy him this time around, he was very very nice to him on the TG podcast. Alfies had zero repsonse to Bryans criticism on Alfies lack of actual content. He just acted as if he's interesting enough to just post pathetic shit vlogs that nobody over the age of 11 would enjoy. The truth is, Alfie knows that he's a useless talentless prick with not a single creative cell in his brain, and he knows the only people he could entertain is children, but he skated around that fact for an hour

I really respect Alex for being able to say “hey, I fucked up a lot.” And admit where he went wrong, but not “bottling it” as jack said lol. Like he knew things could’ve been handled better & admitted his faults, but he explained where he was coming from & stuck by what he thought at the moment. I really hope he takes care of himself before going back to KZbin. Mad props to jack as well for never shying away from confrontation, and handling this situation so well. He’s upfront about everything and definitely isn’t a 🐍 Truly do respect both of them.

[@user-we8dn5ub9z]

Man, Alex NEEEEEDS to take a break so badly. Even though I’m not a KZbinr, I relate to his state of mind a lot. It sounds like he just absolutely broke down from all of this stuff going on around him and let it all out in that livestream which unfortunately ended up being aimed at Jack which for viewers on the outside made no sense and lacked all context. The thing is that instead of just crying and screaming in the privacy of his room like I would do, a whole lot of people witnessed it which is not an ideal image to portray to people and something I don’t think any of us would want to show to thousands of people. I think we’re all like that sometimes and honestly I was disappointed with how he conducted himself in the livestream but I was totally and utterly in understanding with him. I really just want him to take a long break, visit his family or friends or something or just go on a fucking holiday. I don’t want him to end up in a bad state that will be hard to come back from because I can see him teetering on the edge right now even in his normal videos. I really like him because he is flawed (like every human being) but unlike a lot of people, absolutely knows so and you can tell he tries his best to be better. Anyway, I don’t really care about any of this drama right now, I just want him to take a step back and clear his thoughts. It’s obvious he’s confused about what he is feeling and thinking and the people and environment around him with constant polarising opinions aren’t helping. It’s NEVER good to be this absorbed in your work to the point of not being able to make sense of anything anymore. PLEASE ALEX TAKE A FUCKING BREAK 💕

So JaackMaate made a video expressing his opinions on the podcast and on what I'malexx said. I'malexx made a live stream responding to it. They of course had a falling out over this. And now they are trying to resolve it and be friends again.

In any relationship (friendship or otherwise) you can’t let things bottle up. Alex was bottling up all these minor things that he was irritated with jack about. Then jack makes a reasonable critique and he exploded. That happens a lot. Don’t let small problems become big ones. Work things out as they come along. It’s uncomfortable but necessary. By the way I’m not saying Alex bottles things up as an insult. It’s human nature to want to avoid conflict but as long as you do it in a constructive way. I do understand though if you’ve been burned before you just shut down but as he himself said he needs to work on it. It’s gonna make relationships in the future harder for him.

[@melitajay]

@@awal4896 This is so true. I unfortunately ended up falling out with someone partly because they kept everything bottled up and didn't tell us that they were upset until it all built up and came out at once, and by that point they were so affected by it that they couldn't move past it even after we tried to resolve things. It's important to talk about things as and when they happen. People can't be mind readers and you have to explain when you're upset.

What I've come to realize is that Alex isn't the best with head-on confrontation. He's more likely to bend than to stick to his guns. Which is, in my opinion, 110% why Alfie chose him to be on that video rather than Jack, who will stick to his guns and not bend. Not saying Alex is wrong, but in this situation I do believe he handled it to the best that *HE* could. He, from my view, doesn't handle head-on conflict the best (as I said above), so in a way i feel bad for him. But, at the same time, not. I am glad for these two to publicly sort through things, since they publicly had conflict. It shows immense maturity and depth. Well done lads. EDIT: An example to clarify, If someone had cheated Jack and Alex, Alex is more the type to go "Well that sucks, but oh well." and Jack is more the type to go "No, you cheated me, and you need to make that right." Obviously this is just from my point of view from the various ways I've seen both interact online. It's obviously not a true *in-depth* POV, since I actually don't know them :) Edit 2: As I keep watching, and not just listening, another telling sign is that Jack is maintaining eye/body contact, whereas Alex is rarely looking at Jack, and is more looking past him. Which shows that he does feel bad, and a bit sheepish. He knows it wasn't the best, and he's still (from what I can see, and I could be wrong) upset about it.

We always will, anxiety won't go away but we will learn to cope with it better! Good luck

Already listened to it yesterday, so glad to see you guys sit down and handle this maturely. I can see where both of you were coming from, this whole situation shows the importance of communicating well.

Been a lurker for a while but this video (which I didn’t expect to watch the entire thing) made me subscribe. The way you’ve sat down and talked things through and listened to each other is really refreshing.

The ideal follow up to all this would be Jack and Alfie debating with True Geordie mediating the debate. That's the perfect combination to make it productive, controlled and interesting. I'd like to see Alfie banging the table in that situation... :D

I love Jack so much, he’s so grounded and will say exactly what he thinks

I enjoyed this conversation. I rarely watch videos this long but I watched this because of the review jack did and I was curious about his and Alex friendship. I enjoy their interactions and certainly want to see them working together consistently. I value each of them for different reasons and you can clearly see they appreciate each other. I'm glad they talked it out and look forward to more content where they both appear and converse honestly about anything.

I love Jack but I feel so sad for Alex in this video. It seems like Alex, who's already mentally in a bad place, has had to spend at least two hours defending himself which has resulted in him blaming himself for everything that's gone wrong recently, it's sad to watch him take on all the blame and grovel like that.

That's what adults do though when they have done wrong. We grow and we learn.
