Overview
Case Blackwell debuts a teleprompter and negotiates a Sunday Crumbs Miss holiday stream while covering Twitch’s revised sexual content policy with Jeff Ripple, including a live ‘topless meta’ demonstration. The broadcast veers into absurdity with the introduction of ‘hog expert’ Steve Hog Hog, who claims 236 teats and a Christmas ham martyrdom fetish.
