The Yard podcast crew pulled off an epic 12-hour charity stream, raising $224,000 for LA wildfire relief efforts. Even Actor Josh Brolin stepped in to match the donations, bringing the grand total to an impressive $448,000.
The stream was a non-stop rollercoaster of entertainment, featuring some truly bizarre moments that kept viewers glued to their screens. In one segment, Homer Simpson himself showed up to shave a guest’s head.
This is not the first time that the streaming community steps up to show its support against the natural disaster. Earlier this month Hasan Piker interviewed imprisoned firefighters that battled the fires in California.
Musical performances took center stage throughout the event. Rapper Yung Gravy stole the show by belting out tunes while wearing a shock collar, barely flinching as the volts coursed through him. Meanwhile, Ludwig flexed his musical chops on bass, proving he’s more than just a pretty face in the streaming world.
The Yard boys didn’t stop there. They brought in DJs to keep the energy high, including one cheekily dubbed “DJ Racist.” Karaoke sessions and comedy bits rounded out the entertainment, with the crew closing out the stream with a heartfelt rendition of “I Miss You.”
Viewers ate up every moment, flooding the chat with “W Thanos” references in honor of Brolin’s generous match. The community’s enthusiasm was evident, with many already clamoring for more events like this in the future.
