TommyInnit kicks us off by talking about his testicular torsion (for far too long), then we discuss Ted’s childhood and what it was like starting YouTube and meeting Markiplier at PAX East.

Ted takes us through his journey of blowing up on YouTube, streaming Minecraft on SMPLive, and changing content direction to create viral videos.

We reflect on Ted’s time in group projects like Lunch Club, Take It Easy and Chuckle Sandwich. Ted speaks about his creative endeavours into the film and music video space, producing work with James Marriott and Good Kid.

Shut Up I’m Talking is a comedy podcast featuring TommyInnit and Jack Manifold who talk about life, growing up and the wild world of being an online influencer.
