Hello, my name is TJ Kirk and I’ve only been on this platform for a little less than a week, and I’ve already introduced myself, but I thought I should give you a more complete introduction to who I am and what I’ve accomplished. What follows below is a resume of the creative endeavors I have undertaken in the last decade.
The Amazing Atheist Era
During my first few years on YouTube as The Amazing Atheist, I gained a lot of traction for tearing into idiots of all flavours: radical feminists, religious wackjobs, anarchists, liberals, conservatives, MRAs, and many more. My primary topic though was atheism, where I was the largest YouTuber to talk about the subject for many years, in terms of subscriber count. While I still talk about much of the same type of issues as in the past, religion has taken a backseat due to adaption with the current political scene.
The TJ Kirk Era
These days, I have changed my channel name to reflect my shift from atheism as a main topic. My current main focus is Social Justice Warriors (the types of people who are perpetually offended by everything), but I also focus on a wide variety of other social phenomena.
2014 saw the creation of the Drunken Peasants (DP), a podcast made by myself and my friend Ben. Not long after, we would be joined by my brother Scotty Kirk. The show has enjoyed success for over four years, even adding two new cast members in the form of PaulsEgo and Billy the Fridge.
The show primarily revolved around news, entertainment, and politics within a segment based format.
Deep Fat Fried is a show comprised of former Drunken Peasants members PaulsEgo, Scotty Kirk, and myself. Each week we tackle different topics ranging from the historical to the contemporary to the utterly trivial. We explore our topics in an indepth and humorous way, with our usually ethos of stoner degeneracy.
I serve as a producer and occasional on screen talent in the quickly growing PaulsEgo-headed movie review channel, Cinema For Cynics, which, as the name implies, takes a cynical look at movies and entertainment.
Formerly PaulsEgo's main channel, this channel was rebranded last year as a channel solely designated for informal livestreams to interact directly with fans. It is used by both myself and PaulsEgo.
Another short-lived channel, focused on making experimental (read: terrible) videos. If you have a strange send of humor, you might enjoy some of them.
I also had a poetry channel that I no longer even remember the name of, but it's just as well since my poetry was mostly ghastly.
So, these projects represent the last ten years of my life. And now I have come to this platform to start the next phase of my creative existence. I hope that you will join me.
