In a recent discussion, Chris Broad and CDawgVA critiqued MrBeast, alleging that the top YouTuber is experiencing a “generational falloff”and prioritizing wealth over genuine content creation. This conversation took place during a clip released on October 12, where CDawgVA, a voice actor residing in Japan, invited Broad to express his views on MrBeast, a well-known figure behind the Abroad in Japan YouTube channel.
Broad opened the dialogue with a strong assertion: “Anyone who believes MrBeast is driven by anything other than his ambition to become the wealthiest YouTuber has overlooked a crucial point.” He then shared a prior interaction he had with MrBeast’s ex-manager, Reed Duchscher, to provide context.
“I had a conversation with his manager a year or two back. He was polite, but his attitude was all about ‘How can we increase our profits?’” Broad reflected, saying, “I pointed out that I create entertaining and educational videos, to which he simply focused on the idea of ‘money, money, money.’”
During their chat, Broad also touched on the collaboration between Logan Paul, KSI, and MrBeast regarding their Lunchly business initiative. He remarked, “Teaming up with Logan Paul tells you a lot about his character. Logan Paul is quite controversial, and aligning with such individuals raises concerns.”
Broad went on to express that he doesn’t view MrBeast as “purely malicious,” yet he has been aware of negative comments surrounding MrBeast for several years. When addressing MrBeast’s charitable initiatives, Broad acknowledged, “He has certainly done commendable work, which is undeniable,” but he indicated that people should be wary of the underlying motives behind these philanthropic efforts, which appear to benefit him personally.
“It seems his charitable activities serve as a shield against criticism, but that strategy is crumbling now that people are starting to see through it,” he stated further.
Notably, despite the significant following of these big YouTubers associated with Lunchly, the venture has faced backlash, particularly from dieticians who have criticized the marketing as “distressing.”
