Josh Strider

You've been a huge support to me this month and I deeply appreciate that. I wanted to give you a verbal notice what video's coming next and what's been happening 🙂 Let me know if you like these quick direct chats to you and I'll try to make more of a habit of them.

There was interest in all 4 video poll choices so I'll try to produce all 4 🙂 Thanks to Just2Good for helping chatting about these lego sets! I think I also found some great quotes of wisdom for the end this time 😄

Howdy! 🙂 These videos are from the "Darkest Era" of YouTube in 2018-2019. We check out "The Darkest Sesame Street Episodes", "The Darkest PBS Kids Episodes" and "The Darkest Kids Show Episodes /w Jorge."

Thanks for your feedback!

I brought Stormy onto the set for this one 🙂 Thank you for giving me the time to paint my video canvases in a non-rushed, quiet space. I appreciate you.

Howdy! Here is another double-feature rescued from the YouTube void. This video compiles two of my older videos that had to be removed from the main channel: Censored Family Guy Episodes and The Censored Kids Cartoons. To make it a more special, I've continued to film additional retrospective commen

This is the final video for the PhantomStrider channel. Moving forward, PhantomStrider will remain active as a permanent archive of the 12-year video legacy. Ensuring all remaining videos remain safe and accessible for everyone. All future videos will now be uploaded to my second channel, LiveStride

Since these are among my favorite 2 videos I've made, I ended up having a ton to say on them and I went on for like 6 minutes 😆 One of them was falsely flagged and removed for a while so there was a lot to say

Thank you very much for your kind support in September. Let me know in the comments if you have any other video suggestions 🙂

Howdy 🙂 I made this video because I wanted to help the Autism community better understand ourselves. And food is a big part of that. Plus Nin got to voice a lot of comments in the video which always makes me smile. A deep thank you for keeping me safe this month in a time where I've felt simultaneo

This is Part 1 of the Creepypasta saga ☠️ As compiling all in one would've been a 5 hour buffering nightmare, I'm uploading them separately. In 2026 YouTube, taking kids' cartoons and making silly, quote-unquote "scary" stories out of them is the textbook robot definition of "misleading family conte

This was a good chance to chat a bit about modern Simpsons and it's current bizarre state on Disney+! I'm hoping to cover Simpsons more on LiveStrider in the future. Next compilation should be the Creepypasta vids.

Thanks for your patience in me finishing this video and migrating to LiveStrider channel 🙂 Future videos will be posted on LiveStrider. Next up is a more light-hearted topic 😄

Preserving some more videos 🙂 This is a compilation of my “modern kids show” videos that have been permanently removed from my channel due to YouTube’s changes. New video coming soon to LiveStrider channel 🙂 Videos Included: The failed Modern Kids Cartoons - November 2023 The Worst episodes of Mod

All 5 of my removed Peppa Pig video reviews with in-between commentaries discussing my thoughts on them nowadays and why they were removed. I speak in-between but I don't cut over any of the original videos though to preserve them as they were.

After this upcoming video, I'd like to talk about the most popular "safe foods" for people on the Autism spectrum (On my "LiveStrider" Youtube channel). Are there any particular foods you love the texture of, or specific brands you always stick to for predictability? Thanks for your feedback 🙂

Which of these video suits you best?

I really appreciate the support in what's been a scary week. Apologies I've been offline since releasing the video. My adrenaline has been going nuts and YouTube has rejected my appeal requests repeatedly, leaving me having to give up on PhantomStrider channel & move to LiveStrider channel. Regardle

Since PhantomStrider is completely de-monetized, would you mind if future videos are uploaded to my other channel LiveStrider? This is purely to escape YouTube's bullying and maintain some more financial stability. But if you feel concerned about this, please let me know in the comments. https://www

Thank you for just being here. I’m uploading this here first because the Patreon community is the reason I'm still standing. Yesterday, YouTube’s automated system flagged my entire 12-year archive and instantly de-monetized my entire channel. I’ve appealed twice, I’ve provided evidence, and they hav

(removed YouTube link. See patreon uncut version here: https://www.patreon.com/phantomstrider/posts/169110433 ) Yep. This killed the whole thing lol. I ORIGINALLY wanted to look closer at Daniel Tiger and what all this fuss is on Tiktok and why they're making fun of him so much. I was tossing up rem

Howdy! This episode is famous for its interactive voting system from back in the day.. But honestly I was more interested in the funny gags rather than the endings. I still use "your good" as a vocal stim to this day. I am deeply grateful to have your support this month. It has kept my private villa

Did you catch Storm's "guest appearance" in this video? The comedy timing in the wallet scene remains pure genius. Thank you so much for your support and for keeping this channel alive. I hope you're having a pleasant week so far. "Mermaid Man & Barnacle Boy 3" - Spongebob Season 2 Review (YouTube)

Personally, this episode brings back some not-so-great memories on the playground so I felt mixed it. But I still got a few laughs 😃 What'd you think of this episode? "Your Biggest Fanatic" - Spongebob Season 2 Review (YouTube)

I appreciate you very much helping to keep my villa sanctuary safe this month. I hope I keep a little of the old YouTube alive with my more old-style videos. Next up is a silly 2023-style food video talking about Mcdonald's vanished food items 🍔 My secret favourite videos to do 😄 I am glad I final

This gives us a real peek into Squidward if he was actually given what he wanted. Always takes me back to that Oscar Wilde quote: "There are two tragedies in life: one is not getting what you want, and the other is getting it." Squidville - Spongey sSeason 2 review (YouTube)

Thanks for the great choice of topic! It was fascinating researching this one. Such an unusual topic was refreshing to chat about too. My favourite part was probably Nin doing the reviews like in the restaurant vids 😄 Mysterious Places Science Can't Explain (yet) (YouTube)
