JaackMaate Responds To Laurence McKenna's Comments About Clash Of Creators

Jaack and Stevie sit down with 17 year-old Callum who, with the help of his friend Tom, created one of the best KZbin events of the year. His charity football tournament raised over £13,000 for mental health charity MIND, which is something close to Callum's heart after suffering the sudden loss of his father last year.
In this clip, Jaack & Stevie call out Laurence McKenna for some ill-judged comments he made about the event. Do you agree with the boys? Were they too harsh on Laurence? Let us know!

KZbin is so toxic sometimes. It was a brilliant event and I'm proud to have seen it happen

[@Danny-mt3bo]

So true. I was actually shocked by Lawrence’s comments, for somebody who I thought was a very smart and considerate person, he came across like a massive twat. I thought it was very clear from the start that the organizers had a tiny budget for this event, and still managed to put together a good live stream. And the “who?” comment is just ridiculous, let’s be honest Lawrence is Brian’s bitch. If Brian decided to stop KZbin noone would give a shit about Loz
