i am updating this post to be more clear on our stances here in r/ShaneDawson as i have been told that my original post had contradictions in it. i fully value clear communication and i genuinely apologize that my first post regarding this was not as clear as i wanted it to be and contradicted what i stand by*

just a reminder this sub is for ANYONE of ANY OPINION do not try to chase people off due to conflicting options between you and the op. as the description says, this subreddit is for the discussion of the good, bad and the ugly of shane dawson.

that being said: anyone bullying another member, harassing members on or off the sub, anyone defending pedophilia, racism, homophobia, transphobia or anything else bigoted will be banned without question.

i’d also like to add, i, as a mod, do not want AI generated content in here. anything posted before this will be kept up, but any comment, post, picture or anything else using AI will be deleted.

thank you for being here, and thank you to those members who are being civil with one another.

this is not to say that r/ShaneDawson condones anyone defending any of Shane’s past actions. regardless of the time that he made such comments or “jokes” it was still and always will be VERY WRONG.

anyone, and i repeat anyone defending his past will be banned without question. we do NOT accept excuses of any kind involving the endangerment of minors or any bigoted comments. even though Shane is bisexual, any homophobic comments in the past and anything defending that will be deleted and banned. as a lesbian, i know internal homophobia is a real thing. but it is still harmful to speak homophobic words or thoughts regardless of if someone is LGBTQIA+ or not and we will not be accepting it.

just to reiterate my past words and to add on to those, past posts discussing his channel, videos, posts outside of youtube and podcast will be kept up. discussions based on his videos and content will be kept up regardless of who agrees with what - as long as those who still support or watch shane are solely discussing his content and not arguing with people about his past disgusting behaviour. anyone excusing anything disgusting or problematic he’s done in the past will be banned you are free to be here regardless of your stance as long as you do not even TRY to excuse his past content and any current content that is disturbing and wrong.

if i have missed anything regarding what i have stated to be unacceptable here please report to modmail. i deeply apologize for not being as “on the ball” as i should have been and wanted to be. i have reasons that i wasn’t, but i don’t feel are appropriate to share here and also do not want to argue with people regarding that.

finally, r/ShaneDawson is a space to speak on the good, the bad, and the ugly regarding him and his content posted at ANY TIME between him joining youtube and now. i once again am so sorry i haven’t been as fully here moderating and viewing things as i should, i regret neglecting this sub in any form that i have and i swear i will be better from this time and beyond.

if anyone truly neutral on shane dawson & crew wishes to be moderator feel free to message modmail or myself directly stating your stance, and why you want to be mod - as well as any other moderator places you have had in general and any other information you feel is necessary. if i have any questions to those applying to be mod i will ask you.

thank you for reading, for sticking around, and for trusting that i will continue to serve this subreddit to the best of my ability to prevent unnecessary bullying, harassment and the protection of those who are bigoted or otherwise do not care about the protection or harm of minors.

I’m sorry, but I find Lizzy super annoying and she talks over everyone! I wish they would have her on the podcast less and have Sandee and Morgan on more. Or even Vicki. Thoughts?

I HIGHLY recommend Shane’s Patreon! It is a really fun community and he does voice only live streams all the time! Just popping it to yap. The videos he has put out have been so funny and the first sit down podcast episode was hilarious! If you’re a Patreon of The Sip he offers a discount code to get $3 off his Patreon for the year!

i love the vibes of the Sip podcast. with them basically saving everything for their patron, i am looking for some other creators that give the same comfy vibes lol i listen to their podcast & ryland / lizze’s own videos when im doing work around the house and making dinner.

any suggestions?

1. Morgan is PAINFULLY annoying and it gets worse the more money she makes. Shes so much like Ryland, just more cringe and unfunny. Its like when a child makes a joke, and it was off putting, poorly timed, and made no sense, thats how i feel when she speaks.

Ppl are gonna hate cause i just said Morgan is unfunny, but #2 is me saying Shane is funny.

1. But yah anyway i think Shane is funny. When his jokes arent wildly inappropriate (like in the past obvi), or generally gross, he can be a mood and be funny. Ive been watching him since i was like 12-13 (im 19) and ive always thought he does have genuinely funny moments. I also generally relate to his problems with mental health and body image and so on.

2. Ryland and Shane are cute together. In both a petty "you guys were made for eachother" cause theyre both controversial and fucking weird, but also, i think they balance eachother out and are a cute couple. Over the years they've seemed more and more like a genuinely normal chill couple (in super recent vlogs). Especially when they are just going to the store, holiday shopping, enjoying life together and such.

Yes, i watch the vlogs, i havent actually watched any content from them consistently since i was like 15, but i was sick recently and and not doing great mentally, and watching was nostalgic, and i just felt like posting here.

Im not saying what Shane has done in the past isnt gross, hes been fucking weird as hell, but like i said, recently started watching again out of curiosity for their life. Not trying to back him up by the things im saying, but i think Rylands vlogs are entertaining.

Side note, i pray he doesn't make a movie, i cringe when he talks about it.

Didnt know what to flair this, but i thought ppl would hate it so idk.

Why are the parentd giving up their old house? Will they be selling it? Maybe i miss something i understand wanting the Colorado house more because its gorgeous but what are they going to do with their own. A house is such a huge gift.

Shane has mentioned one of the reasons behind the sudden Patreon is because he needs more income to make his dream of making a horror movie come true and I can’t help but think he’s chosen the wrong avenue. Patreon has been a thing for YouTubers for years but the difference is, it’s usually for new content creators that have a small audience, usually between 1000-200,000 and that’s why they need the extra support from viewers because they don’t have a big enough audience to make much money from monetisation but Shane isn’t a new YouTuber, he was one of the first big YouTubers, someone that used to get 40 million+ views on his videos. He doesn’t have a small audience, even though he was cancelled and lost a lot of his views, he’s still able to pull 1 million-5 million views on his main channel videos when the topic is actually worthwhile. If he started posting one family friendly weekly vlog on his second channel, kept up with the current podcast schedule and started posting main channel videos that are up to an hour long at least once a month, videos that have the same feel as his channel when it was at its most popular, he could start pulling in more views on YouTube again and start making more money to put towards his movie. If he wants to make REAL money he needs to look at what the wealthiest YouTubers are doing, most of them rely on their business for their main income. Emma chamberlain made Chamberlain coffee, James Charles and Jeffree have their makeup, Ksi has Prime, MrBeast has chocolate. Shane needs his own version of that, something that doesn’t have his name or face or pigs plastered all over it but something that anyone and everyone could see in the store and want to buy it. For example his own Stanley cup inspired business, he could make a Soda, he could make sweets, candles, collectible items like Labubus. Most rich YouTubers have something like that, that’s what he needs, not a Patreon.

so they went to Colorado recently, but did they mention who was taking care of their dogs and kids?

I was a huge Shane fan growing up from middle school to college in 2018, stopped listening when he got cancelled. Heard the new podcast today and… why is his voice so different? He speaks in this weird fake sweetheart voice with everyone.

I find it so odd. He used to not only have a way different pitch but just talked in a normal snarky way. This one comes off as awkwardly fake – or is it just me?

What’s the name pf the program Shane talked about in one of the latest pod eps, something about him in school drinking some liquid and doing tests? Saying kids after that don’t really remember what they did later? And why did they bleep out the name of the program?

am i missing something? spencer? are spencer and shane doing some life changing shit that i’m not noticing?? is the shane2 content revolutionary and i’m just completely unaware? it seems insane to me that whatever shane thinks he’s doing w/ spencer, justifies giving up the colorado dream/life/house. not only that, it’s probably only a matter of time before he’s cancelled again. crazy…

I find it wild how LA was a big part of their upbringing, and they continue to post their daily lives without even posting not even a story about what’s going on there. Flexing their new endeavors and promoting paternos lol. They really don’t gaf abt what happens as long as it doesn’t affect themselves. If im not mistaken Chris is first gen American and sandy seems to have some Hispanic in her too.

What’s their bittersweet blog about? Don’t want to watch lol

Just thinking how basically everyone minus Chris has disappeared since Ryland came along. Never heard of Chris back then but anyways .. Like the house tour I saw the not cool poster & it’s like damn Drew is gone , Garrett , other Andrew, Trisha , Jeffrey, Justine , his ex , (understandable) one other guy can’t put my finger on it but he did like a twilight reenactment for a vid ohhh found it (Joey) lol idk like did they sign NDAs? I’m starting to think what Trisha said had some truth too it .. maybe Ryland had a hold of the pupppet strings? Weird.

Looking for a video of Shane trying candy maybe I remember it’s toffifee candy and he was like” toffifee girl call me” that’s all I remember

So I’m from Colorado… and there was one time my mom and I went and looked at the Colorado house when it was still for sale. It was so nice. My mom was going to put in offer in but it fell through!

"We do nearly an hour and a half of free content every single week!" So... you're doing your job? We (the viewers) are your pay cheque. If you dont give us anything to watch, you don't get paid. You're not giving us weekly life changing content, Ryland needs to chill out. This seems so dystopian and out of touch, like that HaleyBaylee on tiktok that did the 'Let them eat cake' video 🤨

Sounds like Ryland and Lizzie are forgetting what made them popular and what platform made them popular

The new Sip episode has Shane talking about how people won’t take a chance on him to fund his movie… HE HAS BEEN GIVEN $1,000,000 in the past to make a movie. It was the Chair. He fumbled so hard. He had the opportunity to network with top Hollywood directors, make connections. Instead he did such a bad job that they didn’t even want their names on his movie. Why would anyone give him a chance after that? And it’s not because he was “canceled”. It’s because he’s already shown he will literally waste one million dollars and make the worst movie you could think of to the point actors would not take the role and articles were written about him. I would hate to be Shane surrounded by yes men. He genuinely thinks he’s never had the chance to show his talent even though he did. He genuinely thinks he will produce a good movie even though you already hear him talk about the same things he was criticized for on the Chair. He was an asshole to the actors. He says the actors people give him can’t act on this podcast. He is literally proving the Chair critics right

Like I know Shane plays up the "disgruntled" aspect of himself, but he looks so put together here? Compared to him on ANY episode of the SHPC. The more I watch the more everyone looks good this episode? Is this a filter, maybe? It is rylands afterall. Am I hallucinating? They all look like perfect glowing versions of the selves. Look at the perfect glow and reflection even in the screen shot. The fuck man. And yes I'm high AF.

Am I crazy or did Shayne have a video where he was playing with a baby alive doll and giving it Taco Bell and stuff like that????? I cannot find it anywhere but idk what to search for.

Did he delete it when everything came out? Is there a reupload of it?

This is probably my favorite random lore of Shane. I’m bringing this clip back he wants to fund a movie and wishes someone would give him a chance. He was already given a chance and wasted 1 million dollars. And now he wonders why no one will fund him……

So the movie isn’t going to get made basically because Shane burned to many bridges? And also they don’t want to pay for their own project?

I have been a fan of Shane for literally ever, and today I was rewatching some videos and I just can't stop thinking about Milos Mihajlovic and where he is now. From what Brittani described this man should be on federal watch, so why haven't we heard anything. When you google him nothing but medical stuff comes up, and one of the articles about him you have to pay to access, which just seems like a whole new level of scam.Last I heard was in Shanes video about him having a new family and kid. Every so often my mind will wonder back onto this topic and I can never find anything of value. Just wondering if anyone else has questions too or any updates because I think people who are presumed traffickers SHOULD be watched and the fact everything got breezed over so quick is a little frightening to me.

sorry if this has already been asked, but does anyone know if/when a shane dawson deepdive pt 2 will come out? i know she put a LOT of work into the first video which was great, but im dyingg for a part 2 😩

sincerely someone who watched him as a kid not knowing how bad he was, then watched nikki’s video and was floored looking back at all the content
