Descrição
I was originally going to call this "Microwave Me: Eulogy" but went with this.
I was sick when I recorded this, so that's why I sound very hoarse towards the end. I announced last month that due to a nearly nonexistent fanbase, I was ending Microwave Me. We all know that once a YouTube channel has its day, it's all downhill from there and the channel never will recover. You get one shot to grow a channel, once the growth ends and your fanbase starts to evaporate, you can only delay the inevitable. This video talks about the rise and decline of my channel. I had temporary setbacks during the uphill part in 2012-2014 and temporary brief periods of recovery in 2017-2020, but trends don't lie. I had tons of fun over the years doing Microwave Me, I don't regret doing this show one bit. Are there some things I would have done different? Sure. But I think my channel's fate was sealed before I even posted my first video. With that said, I've made so many amazing friends over the years, I've also made some memorable enemies (and many not-so memorable trolls). I had fun making destruction videos for all of you, but eventually I became the "sick man of the YouTube destruction community" and no matter how hard I tried to right the ship, it was time for Captain Microwave to retire, and so with that I am officially retired from being your captain. It was a nice run, but all good things must come to an end. But it's not entirely over, I will come back on the 24th of October every year to post a microwaving anniversary special.

EDIT: Change of plans. The trolls won't let me alone, they're still false-flagging videos. No anniversary specials. This will be my last MicrowaveMeShow video ever. It's over forever. When this goes down again, I'm not going to fight to get it back.
