I entrust that everyone watched all of our Extra Life 2018 marathon as it happened on Twitch, right? 😉

Just in case you missed out, here’s a playlist with all of the action! From our team of rookie chefs burning down the kitchen in Overcooked 2, to the hotly-contested #tysonchallenge, to the silliest rap battle you’ve ever seen, to Jenna’s 1am dance moves, to Randy’s night shift, to our epic quest to defeat M. Bison before the marathon ended, it’s all there!

Shout-outs to everyone who starred in the show!

We Just Conquered the Extra Life 25-Hour Gaming Marathon!

JettLeave a comment

We did it! The show started at 8am on November 3rd, but it’s truly been months – if not years – in the making. So glad that we were all able to pull this together to help raise an amazing $800 for the Children’s Miracle Network of Hospitals! Technically, the show is still going, as Randy and Jenna want to play more Overwatch, but I’m going to get some much-needed rest.

A now, a few words of thanks.

  • Thank you to all of the donors whose generosity will help improve the lives of patients and staff at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto!
  • Thank you to my wife and Executive Producer of the marathon, Steff. She helped with the planning of virtually every aspect of this marathon, including all of the work behind the scenes to ensure that everyone was comfortable throughout this insane journey.
  • Thank you to my cousin Adrienne for lending us her photography lights and backdrop.
  • Thank you to all of the special guests who appeared during the marathon and on the streams leading up to the big show! Randy, Jenna, Mat, Jon, Jason, Laura, Kris, Rachel, Michelle, Jascha, Janis, and Dusty; you’re all rock stars and your time and effort towards supporting the cause was greatly appreciated!
  • Bonus shout-out to Kris & Rachel the extra effort they put into figuring out co-streaming with me. We didn’t get to use it for the marathon, but until Squad Streaming sees the light of day, that extra effort will pay off in our future streaming adventures together.
  • Thank you to everyone who tuned in! We hope that we put on a great show for you and your support helped us get through this fun-but-difficult marathon!

It took a lot of effort from many people to pull this all together, but I think it was well worth it for the money we raised for the kids and the fun times we had. Until next time….time for me to get some much-needed sleep.

Jason Makes His Paladins Debut!

Jason is an avid Overwatch fan, but he steps out of his comfort zone to try out Paladins with my brother Randy and I! Besides teaching Jason the ropes, we talk about some of the games Jason is selling on eBay, the Apple Conference that took place today, Nintendo Direct predictions, and an appearance in the chat from Extra Life Toronto!

In Third Person is Streaming for Extra Life!

Jett1 Comment

As of last night, select streams will be in service of Extra Life. Best known as an annual 24-hour gaming marathon – taking place this year on Saturday, November 3rd – I will be collecting donations through my streams leading up to the big day. And yes, my friends, family, and I will be broadcasting a 24-hour gaming marathon of our own on twitch.tv/inthirdperson!

100% of the proceeds go to the Children’s Miracle Network of Hospitals, who provide 32 million treatments to children each year in the United States and Canada. I generally donate to my local Sick Kids Hospital when I can, but this is an opportunity to use this platform to help raise awareness and provide resources for children that need it most on a scale that I can’t reach alone.

Let’s work together on this! When you get a chance, please make a donation to Extra Life. I’ll do my part in raising awareness through the stream, continuing tonight with the latest episode of Boss Rush! I hope we all have a great time gaming for a cause right up to the big 24-hour gaming marathon and beyond!
