Early Days
Sam Collins launched his Youtube channel in February 2012 and the first video he posted was titled “Bored at the pond.” Initially, his content was centered around comedy videos related to high school which brought a fair amount of traction to his channel.
Coming Out and Change in Content
In 2016, Sam posted a video titled “I'm FtM transgender” where he revealed himself as a transgender. Following the video, he started posting videos that relayed the journey of his transition. Over time, his content took a different turn as he now started making videos related to the LGBTQ community. He now hosts satirical commentaries where he takes a dig at all the nonsensical and fiercely offensive ideas related to trans people. However, his content does not always bear a comical tone such as in the case when he is talking about a sensitive issue. He also posts videos on TikTok where he deals with the same subject.
