[@Marclinian42]

This was one of the most awkward and painful things I have ever watched. Truly excruciating!

[@louisl5197]

Part of the Yogscast charm, confidently awkward.

[@rocketforthree4479]

I have no idea what possessed them to start watching the fan-submitted videos with the CEO, _especially_ since they had just watched Nina's and they _knew_ how dangerous those things were. I also dont know what demon possessed Simon to call Dan Clancy "Daddy"???

[@xenophyte]

simon let his intrusive thoughts win fr

[@JonponMusic]

Lewis: "Go and fix some things!" LOL little dig

[@add_ape1831]

I genuinely couldn't believe it, I thought it was Sips with a filter. Still recovering from the shock of it all

[@JDBD13]

As awkward and horrifying as this was, fair play to Dan for sticking with it for 20 mins.

[@PresumablyTunes]

tbf, he knew he was gonna go downstairs and get shitfaced to forget it all afterwards

[@AdBlock-User]

Never experienced a worse anticlimax. Don't understand why they even had that ped*phile on the show.

[@Sem5626]

so turns out he was only doing it to make himself not look so bad when he sacked everyone at twitch

[@thetalltech1746]

This whole situation was like a conservative father trying to bond with his gay sons

[@jeffreysanders612]

This whole segment felt like looking through memes but with your old dad who doesn't quite get it... It was so hard to watch

[@rocketforthree4479]

The thing is, is that they've done the Jingle Cats with Lewis's actual dad, and it wasn't nearly as horrifying as this.

[@NetworKrakle]

@@rocketforthree4479very different relationship lol

[@bwood6337]

Honestly Dan handled it better than that. It's more like dad overheard you laughing at some brain rot meme trash and insisted that you share it with him. So, basically Lewis has to show "Twitch Dad" what he's been spending his time on and it's so magnificently painful for everyone, but especially Lewis.

[@luxinvictus9018]

To be fair, from what I've seen Dan is an pretty eccentric dude. That painting that's often behind him in videos says it all. It's like looking at a future version of Lewis.

[@rocketforthree4479]

When I saw this live, I thought they were just going to chat with him about the history of Jingle Jam or even interview him, (like that time they impromptu-interviewed that BBC cameraman), Like 5 to 10 minutes tops. To be genuinely honest, I think I'm feeling is embarrassed(?) It''s like my Boss has found out that I enjoy watching this every year for hours on end, and he's just judging me.

[@dudekazoo]

I wish it was clickbait and I hadn't already seen it with my own eyes.

[@xenophyte]

i wish it was too 😭

[@EldritchKitten]

I was rolling with laughter the entire time... so painfully awkward.

[@TheOfficialWG]

I loved every moment 😂

[@benalor1973]

It's definitely was a very awkward moment but to me that made it absolutely hilarious to watch. To the point i was hurting just because it was so absurd. But i mean, Jingle Jam is listed as the biggest charity gaming stream somewhere and on KZbin live it was the top livestream. So i would picture big important people would sooner or later join. But timing is key, and I'd say that was timed perfectly.

[@SurgeDashcam]

Ngl until i saw the facecam, I thought it was a joke and was Sips pretending to be the CEO

[@MrWayneDX]

he sounds exactly like daltos.

[@Leptons_]

I love the light digs from Dan here lol. Like where he says the 2.8 second long video at 12:00 is _"the best video yet"_ and at 6:23 when he asks if _"the more they donate, the fewer films they have to watch"_ is how it works. 😂

[@adenodeorain9771]

7:23 was game over for me! Genuine tears running down my face. Entire stream that came before this was just too good lmao

[@jacobhogan3208]

This is like when your new out of touch boss shows up to the (insane) employee Christmas party to make sure nothing bad is happening.

[@hfb_blaacc2591]

I don't know why they would even have him on this to begin with... neither did he really seem to care about anything of it as well.

[@FearnTiran]

Dan has big Sips energy

[@CrocJello12]

the two of them should do a segment of more jingle cats and they are both lying down for the camera angle xD

[@KuueenKumi]

He even sounds like him, as a few Yogs noted sometime on Day 2

[@jayphillips4167]

This was so awkwardly funny, as is Yogscast tradition. However I am still confused as to why he was there though. Did the Yogs invite him on in hopes of a big Mr Twitch dono or some publicity, or did Dan himself ask to go on? Felt very weird to me, especially with Simons sarcastic dig about one of the useless Twitch features recently added

[@IceclawFirebolt]

It was awkward, but hilariously awkward. I couldn't stop laughing

[@JeskidoYT]

Twitch ceo just confirmed they'll cancel jingle jam next year. Rip in peace. Terrible news

[@OhGummy]

I joined late and only heard references to the Twitch CEO and I genuinely thought they were jokingly referring to Simon. 😂

[@vrrrrrr-uwu]

hard to watch, yet... necessary viewing.

[@kurojima]

Big rich guy callin in, not knowing who the Yogscast are or what JingleJam is about and then leaving without donating a singular cent is just typical big CEO selfish prick energy. It would have been so easy for that guy with generational muli-million dollar wealth to either drop at least some money by himself - or get some corporate Twitch/Amazon money for this Event as a gesture of good will and kindness. I truly believe that Lewis accepted the offer for this call believing himself that the Twitch CEO would give at least something. Him and Simon seemed disappointed for a while afterwards. Just goes to show, you dont get incredibly rich by sympathizing with other people.

[@TheSilverWolfx]

Now the drinking is even more justified

[@hellodelightfulrando]

Ngl I did turn the stream off as soon as he showed up 😅 it felt like a stranger walked in on a very personal moment with me and my friends but my friends are way too polite to ask them to leave so I leave instead 😂 I did come back and watch the rest of it after the stream was over tho

[@pablopablo3834]

I always skip Jingle Cats because its always excruciatingly cringe and somehow it got more cringe lmao.

[@themolock4017]

I was CREASED over laughing

[@AFunkyHypnoCat]

this was truly a jingle jam moment

[@dustymetso]

Dan Clancy seems like a great guy.

[@Raress96]

Damn, this was so awkward lol =)))

[@cyriell]

This felt so forced ngl 😂 and really like really awkward, imo the ceo not knowing what jingle jam is says enough that he didnt even bother to do a quick google search

[@NECattleRanch]

Yall realize how the CEO of Twitch sounds like sips

[@zarakhall5221]

watched it live - when you remember how awkward they are and then watch something like this and it still blows your mind. love it

[@Quietwing]

The cringe on Lewis's face around 5:08 gives me life

[@LittleHerdaz]

Should of shown Briony's video 😂❤

[@austin2583]

it wasnt that bad

[@AdBlock-User]

This was a huge disappointment. Especially when they hyped it up that they had a guest but didn't want to say who because everyone would go bananas. It was an extreme anticlimax.

[@bushybeardedbear]

Still waiting for Mr.Twitch to donate to the Jingle Jam. Might be waiting a while, yeah? *EDIT:* Final day of Jingle Jam, £7500 donation from Twitch. Happy to be wrong. Yeah, this whole segment deflated Jingle Cats for me and it felt like an uphill battle to get the energy back afterwards.

[@yugimotobutjacked3231]

your taking it too seriously neekey neek, get over yourself, get over fake charities that spend more on operating cost. wanna help someone take your bank account to africa and build a few wells. Legit only a few grand each well, gov doesn't care about them, they want em poor and thirsty.

[@bushybeardedbear]

​@@yugimotobutjacked3231 I feel bad for making the effort to read this reply. 😒

[@yugimotobutjacked3231]

@@bushybeardedbear delude yourself to believe your helping when your furthering the greater industrial charity complex

[@bushybeardedbear]

​​@@yugimotobutjacked3231 Let me put it this way. £35 is about 0.1% of the median UK income. And people are paying at least £35 per Jingle Jam bundle. If the twitch CEO donated the same percentage of his estimated earnings per year OR his estimated 0.1% net worth, we'd be looking at a donation of £1000 - £10000 And keep in mind, many of the people donating make below the average UK salary. And keep in mind some of the largest donations I've seen, are around £5000 So, people are giving no small percentage of their incomes. Why can't he?

[@bushybeardedbear]

@@yugimotobutjacked3231 You're and Your aren't the same thing, nihilistic apathy isn't a philosophy it's just an excuse for laziness.

[@Chairdolf]

Why in gods name did they do jingle cats my god bad idea

[@explicitbanana]

This needs to be the new tradition from now on.
