Holy crap Frost left? His stuff and yahtzee are the only reason I'm subbed to second wind at all. The rest of the content on the channel just seems like cringe click bait clutter like this and all the other God awful design delve videos.

After watching this video about what Frost is saying about Nick Calandra, it really makes sense why the Second Wind channel is the way it is.

EDIT: Holy Jesus. Giving this a second listen to make sure I didn't mishear anything. This Nick Calandra guy running Second Wind is a Grade-A twat. Fuck him and any thing he touches. Anyone supporting Second Wind needs to watch this.

Second Wind made a response. Everyone else at Second Wind disagrees with Frost and is happy with Nick. Quote from Yahtzee:

I wish him well and that he'd focus on his future rather than trying to stoke petty drama in ways that reflect badly on him more than anyone else.

Did they address any of the pretty clearly unethical things Nick has done that Frost showed some pretty hard to deny evidence for?

Just because it would be easier for everyone to sweep the shitty things Nick did under the rug and move on doesn't mean it didn't happen.
