The way Karelly left was shady and everyone unfollowing Austin and vice versa makes me think he tried standing up for her. No mention of when his last episode would be and a condescending comment when people mentioned it, no shouting out his new podcast
You guys have really came far, I remember the start, the first episode and life came and now back to listening to podcasts and gosh. You guys have came far, congrats!

Stay spooky
