Perhaps like a phoenix from the ashes it will return in some form or another, or like Gandalf, it will come back wearing a different cloak, retaining all of its undeniable qualities ...

Another year! Another episode! ANOTHER GUEST?! YES! To celebrate a fantastic milestone, as is the tradition with centenaries: Benedict has pulled out all of the stops for episode 99! It was way back on episode 2 when he spoke to Garrett Watts, so it's long overdue that they had a catch up. All that, plus the TikTok rich list and of course... On This Day In YouTube History! Happy New Year!

Even for Benedict, this particular episode is very light on news about ACTUAL YouTubers, but so what, you're not actually here for the news, right? Find out why Addison Rae has fired up the haters and what's happening on Twitch. There's also a smattering of "Review Review" and a new segment that's quite silly.
