Randolph Is Leaving What’s Good |

[@tomwatson1]

I agree this has become a podcast about the podcast.

[@jrlnas4934]

I think Randoph is convincing himself that he can take bad comments, more than he actually can. Maybe because he’s around people that do have this thick skin (Simon, JJ, etc). But based on how much he talks about the critics, he doesn’t have this thick skin.

[@The_Esav]

tbh i think even Simon doesn't take them well. The way he says sidemen fans hate me and Ethan, I don' t think he realizes the real fans do not hate him or Ethan or any of them. They are both looking at the hate way too much and putting way too much weight on it. I feel bad for them

[@deepakkumar-pr7xw]

Nah Simon does not have thick skin like JJ.

[@avinashwar]

Randolph does have a thicc skin

[@2010-b8w]

He feels sorry for himself and is blaming everyone else

[@eimansfq1860]

​@@The_Esavhe feel so unfair Vik and Harry got more loved.. so he always talking a bad thing about them in this podcast....unlike Ethan now, he more sensitive and protective to his family than himself.... he never care about the hate or less love from the fans...and he never talking toxic things in his podcast about Sidemen/troops members....JJ also got hate but he always show big support for his close members...never pointed out like 'Harry did this Vik did that' 'why they didn't got hate' like Simon

Nah with Simon’s consistency throughout the years, the pod will 100% come back. For Randy, I understand he’s to busy to even do this pod, and that’s why he’s prioritising business over this which completely makes sense.

I know Randolph has a lot going on but his just so inconsistent. Does something, stops ... over and over. Just take this break to properly think! You're talented but you should be owning your branding ... Steaming, vlogs, music, pokemon, ace grading, podcast etc. It's too much and the quality of each gets worse with everything else.

[@bnpparibassss]

He can’t follow through on shit. Watch him get fat once again.

[@MxrkJJ]

I agree with this, randy is defo overhated but when it comes to being consistent with what he is good at, he does it shit. Never stays consistent in promoting his grading company, hows it ever going to do well when most people don't even know it exists. Same with his music, he hasn't rapped in years. He doesn't stay consistent in anything meaning his earnings isn't consistently the same either. And it seems he lives WAY above his means, that's probs the downside of all ya friends being rich

[@keisha7412]

@@MxrkJJyou leave the most reasonable comments , I like u!

[@paulthecreatorrr]

I agree with the last statement. In some episodes I've watched, Randolph constantly compares himself with his friends financially, leading him to live way above his means without him realizing it.

⁠oh he definitely realises it. He just can’t accept it. Then tries to guilt trip the sidemen to pay for him lol.

[@joshsturgeon1904]

Randy, I run a mens mental health charity in Leeds that provides support groups for men to talk openly and safely about their struggles and honestly, you’re an inspiration mate. What you have dealt with is something that a lot of our service users are going through and seeing you come out the other side and putting yourself first is seriously heart warming mate. Keep doing what you’re doing and keep being you. We’ll be here when you return 🤜🤛 #DontManUpSpeakUp

[@joshsturgeon1904]

@@sandid-sisir he doesn’t seem to utilize that fame properly? Do you have experience with this? Do you know how easy/hard it is? You have absolutely no idea how hard it is for a man to win custody of their children, unless the mother is putting the child at harm it is near impossible for men to win and the statistics show that. And KZbin/vlogging is his job just like anything else and how he pays his bills, if he didn’t earn anything and had no job he would see his children even less because he could t afford to look after them. Your view is 1 dimensional and exactly why men don’t reach out for help in these situations. These situations can take years to fix and get plans in place so dealing with that and juggling work and trying to fit seeing your child inbetween l, all the while maintaining your online persona whilst dealing with poor mental health to battle and come through it is very much inspirational.

[@minimal881]

Also, I'm sorry but Randolph being miserable is one of the main reasons I stopped watching. And before you attack me for this take, just take some time and go watch the old pods. He was joyful, funny, positive... not this bs behavior. Constantly whining about lack of money, "work", not seeing his daughter enough... Every single podcast. Stop crying about it online and get some professional help.

[@MxrkJJ]

I agree somewhat and aswell, I bet he doesn't lack money at all it's just he's constantly comparing himself with a bunch of millionaires, he needs to realise his friends are alot richer, he can't afford to live like them.

@@minimal881 icl ya just assuming with the wife stuff, cool we can clearly see he ain't got the money like his friends do, but this whole rhetoric of randy abandoned his family so he can go on holidays with his friends is AN ASSUMPTION, no one except randy and his wife knows the situation, ppl and haters are just making up things that sound likely rather than the actual truth. We don't know he ditched his family. Maybe she wanted him as far away as possible. Maybe she cheated.

Randy just needs to Outdoor Boys the shit and turn off comments on his channel to stop his head spiraling.

it's not hate. People (myself included) are bored of seeing him participate in loads of videos without offering any real output, meanwhile wondering why those video appearances are more important than being a dad (which has led to his reduction in custody).

[@bwilzz.]

I know my opinion might not carry much weight and the likely hood of any of the Podcast team seeing this is minimal, but as someone who loves the podcast-not only for seeing all the guys but also as a personal "Productivity Motivator"-I believe taking a break would be beneficial for both Simon and Randy. They have a lot on their plates, and stepping away for a bit could relieve some of the pressure of keeping up with the podcast.🎙 I'm not sure when John's challenge deadline is, but I think refreshing the set-like changing the lighting, adding new items to the shelves, or switching up the overall aesthetic-could give the podcast a fresh start and spark some new motivation. When the podcast returns, you could kick things off by having John as the 'guest', where he can share his progress, and you could dive into all the new topics you’ve had time to gather during the break! ✨ That's just my opinion and what I think could possibly work. Either way, looking forward to the Podcasts and Randy's vlogs continuing 🙌

If you don't like Randy or any videos he is in, why are you hate watching? People be so entitled. KZbin has 3.7 million videos uploaded daily and choose to go and hate on this man. Leave the man alone ffs. Randy just take a break and keep doing you ✊🏾✊🏾

You’re like 2 month late with your comment

[@dacoda0211]

@@danilborisov2492tbf that side of tik tok just hit my timeline, its insane how much people speculate over clips. I knew he had his divorce but I didn’t know people where dragging them as well.

[@brytonpierce6414]

cant wait for whats good return 2025!

[@adora_1]

i’m gonna miss this podcast sm 💔💔

[@rt2449]

Still waiting on the big rebrand with merch and loaded and what’s dark

[@adamahmed7835]

I feel like 2025 will be the last year for weekly sidemen for some reason I just get that feeling but don't know why

[@kakarotuchiha8662]

randy SHOULD leave bro, dude is the reason this podcast is suffering lol

[@solam93]

2 months later… maybe it was the truth all along

[@ChickenJoe.007]

Saw this coming after watching Randolphs vlog. Dudes been overdoing himself he deserves a break

[@RS-vy9qv]

He ain’t overdoing shit. He’s just to scatty, doesn’t plan anything, doesn’t stick at anything. Never seen someone self sabotage quite like Randy.

[@the_saiyann]

@@RS-vy9qv You are right, he's his own worst enemy and cares far too much what people say.

[@eachsports6182]

I think he wants to be like the sidemen boys doing that much work. But he just doesn’t have it in him. He always stops with his work when it is at the peak

[@msungamo2339]

The sponsor was so great I actually watched it!

[@stephen729]

The podcast has grown to a point where there is nothing more to talk about other than Sidemen shoots and Randy had nothing more to add to the podcast. Time to regroup and hopefully Randy can gain more experience in life to expand his view on everything

[@cheetah219]

I think the problem is is you guys want to care about the podcast but don't actually care (I.e. Planning to film the day before but last minute planning means no guests and bad topics). This leads to no structure, and trying to use it as a catch up conversation but you all recognize it's not been a priority. Kind of frustrating since it's pretty clear Simon is probably who's been keeping it going for so long while randy fumbles around...and this was even well before the divorce. I think having more of a structure will help Randy stay on topic. I honestly stopped watching because he can't stay on a topic for longer than 3 minutes and then he goes in circles for 30 minutes.

[@markoflash3166]

This podcast really turned into randys therapy session

[@MHT25]

one of the main reasons why it's just not as enjoyable, hopefully they come back better

[@radiantpro8679]

Who’s still waiting for the next episode..

[@reversemj]

Peak

[@riomendoza1111]

Simon needs to stop acting like he isnt a huge celebrity and get the big guests on here. FFS you can get the most famous people on here but you choose to tell yourself you are only a youtuber and cant get big guests. YT is huuuuuge now stop being such a negative nancy and reach out to people.

[@nollienick1121]

I think he just likes the chat with his boys.

[@HanifAli96]

A door has 2 purposes, why limit yourself to think the door only has 1 purpose, its ON when its closed and ON when its open, id say an OFF door would be if its not connected to the wall in other words unused

[@Ramonaew]

I still enjoy the pod but I feel like they are so negative and analytical of everything they do and before watching them I never felt negatively about videos now I do lol

[@heythere2356]

pls don’t do a one direction hiatus omg

[@borisvandepoel2703]

It's okay to suck at podcasting, just do whatever you actually enjoy and are good at

[@mariuuuuh]

I already miss it! Please come back guys!! 😢

[@bnpparibassss]

The “oh yeah go slower boy” randy has lost his way. Hopefully that version comes back. This one is needs to get his shit together, which he’s doing, so fair play. All the best.

[@nicog7678]

Bro randy needs to just not look at comments

[@rithikp10322]

Sending love to you Randy The tough times will soon be gone just believe and keep going, you got this king ❤️

[@noJ5395]

You’ve both been running the pod for a fair few years now, think the break came at a good time. Just seems like Randy’s going through a lot, always speaking negative, whether comments that absolutely do bother him no matter what he says or other personal stuff. Also defo need to try to get some sort of actual schedule with thought out topics, not some crap from TikTok all the time. Actually have a plan lol, just feels like you boys have just been coasting for a while now. Hopefully everything is okay with Randy 🙏🏽

[@kieranosullivan02]

Yeah them leaving twitter or not knowing whats trending atm doesn't help, its what kept them going tbh

[@CharlesRehtmeyer]

I'm here for you Randy... been thought the same kind of separation with a larger distance between me and my daughter. Keep your head strong and do all you can for your daughter. Some of us here are here for the right reasons. We appreciate you taking time to keep us updated. ❤

[@joshrussell2379]

Why isn’t this on Spotify???

[@sk9ramgeea]

hi guys, im in that silent majority that never comments. too old to be commenting on youtube videos lol but wanted to say you are one of the only podcasts i actually enjoy listening to. i like how chill and genuine you both are when you come back, i reckon if you cut out talking about sidemen sundays, and the meta talking about the podcast itself, this show could form a good community. a bit like tom's

[@pranaygotnochill]

i think you just need to hire a legitimate producer for topics

[@nollienick1121]

What topics? They just chat about nonsense.

[@bnpparibassss]

Lol randy can’t stand to see John win before him. BITTER

[@tridentHalo]

Surely you can't be doing youtube this long and let comments get too you, just trust a bad comment or wrong, out of context the other commenters will respond too it

[@jayjayb89]

Randy needs to sort that dead trim and get rid of that white dot by his nose 😂😂😂

[@Santancoin]

I messaged you for 3 years straight. This is the only podcast I listen to. You are not leaving

[@RCXDinferno]

Who even is Randolph?

[@mahnooraziz2280]

People really needs to understand that no matter what they shouldn't leave hate comments on any one's post , videos or whatsoever. I don't like the hate randy , Simon and others get. People needs to understand that sometimes it's gets too much and they can become insecure and then it js leads to depression.

[@harveycooper5098]

you are allowed, and should voice negative opinions, just because its not in agreeance or blowing smoke up their arse doesnt mean it shouldnt be shared, if people find him boring, unfunny and a bad host he needs to be let know otherwise how will he learn? such a stupid take.

[@bnpparibassss]

Lol. You want the kid glove treatment your whole life? Grow tf up

[@Ali-i4d2p]

​@harveycooper5098 Constructive criticism is very different to lies and hate. Hating is negative, constructive criticism is positive.

[@tsunax1400]

​@harveycooper5098 Then tell them how. Constantly just telling someone they're boring isn't leaving criticism, it's just being a worthless hater. Also if you don't like something you have the option to just not watch it, instead of sticking around and whining about it.

[@NangDoofer]

@@harveycooper5098 the stupid take is you thinking hate = constructive criticism, they are not the same in any way.

[@Tronny]

Simon is a such a G

[@BDO031]

Why are all podcasts i like taking breaks man.. :(

[@ThuperSuper]

How are you that suprised? The Sidemen brand was built on your personalities, none of you nowadays have the socialbility of bouncing off banter with complete strangers for camera on the level of those kinds of "loud influencers". In tinders other than the massive attraction of the tinder brand, you are technically just doing a chain of bits.

[@azrasufiah]

I think you guys need to invest in people willing to research more topics that can cater to yourself but your audience too. there is a sense of 0 planning for these podcasts which I don’t dislike - it’s nice to listen to two guys chat and feel apart of the convo in a way but I do think it is lacking as the podcast evolves. randy I do hope you seek in person therapy specific to what you’re going through because I don’t think you deal well with reading hate comments which I understand. I saw the posts on the Reddit and was pretty harmful and I think it’s hard to separate being open w audiences (which is needed for espec men to understand how to deal w hardships) but also not alluding to something hateful to the other people around you. do hope you guys come back soon but I understand the needed break.

[@nikolapavliskova2414]

I don't really know why but I might have enjoyed this episode a bit more than usually. It was just so chilled with no pressure, genuinely nice to listen to. Hope the boys will enjoy their break and come back stronger and relaxed! Can't wait for it.

[@gun7futty971]

I think you are stuck in the middle of having "professional looking podcast" and still staying true true to original just vibes and waffle style. You look lost right now, like you tried to improve but didn't improve enough, yet you changed enough to lose your initial style. So you are just lost in the middle of nowhere now.
