🚨I’ve seen people concerned for me over the “I make 4 figures in the $10,000,000 studio” comment and to be CLEAR that was a joke! I was just surprised by how much podcasts make and wrote that in as a throwaway line. I think most ppl know how absurd the idea is that I could have 2 employees, and a $10,000,000 studio if the channel actually made a few thousand bucks a year, however I wanted to clarify so no one worries about me.🥺 If I ever need money I’ll just sell the flying lambo. We’re good. 🫡

As soon as this dude said "I wanted to talk to you, I appreciate the work you do." I knew he was guilty as hell lmao

Coffee: "So you are being accused of stealing 4 mil, what's your side of the story" Kast guy : "It all started when I was born .... "

Coffee: "so what happened to the $4million?" Collin: "you see I used to be a musician...."

"C-C-Could you please not interrupt me while I am lying?" lol.

I refuse to believe someone would be able to trick Brendan Schaub

Colin Thomson spoke from 3:35 to 4:43 and didn't say a single thing. Takes a special type of narcissist to pull that off 🤣

The saddest part is always when the scammers themselves say to Coffeezilla *”I appreciate the work that you do in exposing scammers.”* As if they genuinely believe that they’re not one of those people. Greed really does blind a person’s morals.

You know someone is guilty when they say "they respect his work"

Every scammer appreciates your journalistic integrity until you call THEM out 😂

I just love how all these scammers begin their interview with how much they love your journalist integrity and professionalism!

Never trust someone who uses a large volume of big words to answer a simple question. People who speak to fatigue your brain should be avoided.

The SECOND Collin started talking to Coffee it was obvious that the whole thing was a scam. He was regurgitating a sales pitch instead of answering questions. "Did you scam people?" "What we sell is independence."

Glad that Theo named him. We need to know these people's names and faces.

As soon as I hear the accused say" I love the work you do " about Coffee, I usually lose hope

the guy never intended to run a long-term podcast network; he was trying to hold it together long enough to get acquired, get a big payday, and walk away. That's the giant scam; a lot of start-ups never intend to stay in business; they hold it together long enough to go public via an IPO, get the massive payday, and then watch the company burn to the ground or be bought out by a more prominent firm

I’m a restaurant worker and I learned quickly that I need to shake someone down after two missed checks.

This Colin guy has a future in politics. Just answered a simple question with paragraphs of jiberish

When someone accused of fraud accepts an interview and then doesn't accept questions until a gaslighting monologue is given, means a giant red flag.

Damn that dude is scary, because he was able to come off so genuine. He was very good at mimicking the presentation of someone with good intentions, that just got in over their head You can tell he isnt actually this person however. Because A) his priority in explaining what went wrong is to first establish his innocence. Its like when someone calls 911 and their first priority isnt saving the person injured, but rather establishing they had nothing to do with it. B) he has no patience. After being pressed about just explaining where the money went rather then giving an alibi, he gets upset. A genuine person who made a huge mistake still understands and recognizes the harm their actions caused. You dont get offended by it. Started out going "man maybe theo was wrong about who this guy actually is" but very quickly changed, "oh there he is. Theres the bad guy. He was just hiding in there. Got it".

It’s why if you’re a podcaster or any kind of streamer, it’s better to be an independent than in a network. Excellent work Coffee!

I cant believe an astute businessman like Brendan Schaub could get into this mess

You know it's seriously fucked up when Theo Von is visibly angry. First time I've ever seen it

The most unbelievable part of this story is that Brendan has listeners

Colin warning brian about the attempt to disrupt the transaction is just the epitome of no self awareness and entitlement and privilege. Youre gonna sue me? And yet you owe millions to your clients? Is colin being sued? If not, why not? He's clearly a scammer and he clearly has the funds and assets. Im so sick of people being so egotistical and narcissistic. I hope he reaps everything he sows.

The whole, "I'm glad you reached out. I appreciate you. I appreciate the work that you do, and your journalistic integrity and you're going to be fair" is a blatant attempt off the bat to manipulate 🤣🤣

Never fails to amuse me when a scammer is in a call with you and says "I love the work you do" like they say that too most people and can get away with whatever

I hired a bunch of my friends and over paid myself and my friends and the money dried up! Typical scumbag management.

Coffee: "Where's the money?" Colin: "We'll get to that, but first let me tell my story. So I was born..." 🤥🤥🤥 He's desperate and tried to bluffed so hard but it clearly shows that he's a scammer through & through.

Colin is one of those dudes that makes me understand why the mob did what they did to those who played around with their money.

You’d think that anyone concerned about their image or criminal litigation would shut up and lawyer up, but these narcissists als ways believe they can talk their way out of it. Love how Coffee flat out asks them the real questions and applies direct pressure instead of letting them drone on.

ANYBODY looking at this kind of a deal needs to have an attorney that specializes in Intellectual Property, and contract law. If they don't, they're an idiot. You can ALWAYS have your attorney look over a contract. If the person offering the contact says things like "It's just the standard contract" or "It's just boilerplate" that's a serious red flag. ALL IP contracts should be looked over by an attorney the talent hires before signing. If the media company is unhappy about that, it's likely time to walk away.

Coffee, your ability to explain these massive financial situations. To a person like myself is an absolute gift. And obviously, a lot of hard work. I appreciate you sir, and just love your future detective theme 😊

Bro was doing everything he could, to dodge the 4-Million Dollar question 🤣🤣 he literally tried to sell us his dream.

"I appreciate your work and I know you're going to tell a fair story." The fact that people are willing to talk to Coffeezilla proves that no one ever sees themselves as the bad guy.

Such a great find of a channel! Love the esthetics, vibes. Great investigation too, I'm so looking forward to seeing more!

man you have patience because i cannot stand when i ask a question and someone doesn't answer it.

Theo is a boss. I saw his video and was super impressed that he kept naming the guy and putting up his picture. This is how we weed out corruption…. Slowly

I could tell 5 seconds into Colin talking he was guilty. Man skated around the issue better than most pro ice skaters

Coffeezilla always got these intense music in the background. And i love it

I never thought I’d hear Jim Cornett's name outside a wrestling setting 😂😂😂

Coffee: What's going on with the 4 million? Colin: I was born in a small farm in Kentucky on a fall afternoon. My mother bless her soul was a kind woman who worked at the local bakery while my father a sheriff's deputy. My formative years were typical like any other child. I enjoyed my fair share of trouble making and we drive my parents wild. They were punish me by having me clean the barn. It was during one of these punishments where I met my Maeve, in between all the hay was a small kitten with beautiful stripes of black and orange mixing into her white fur. A little timid at first......

i’m genuinely surprised you’re able to nail all the interviews, especially with people who know who you are. they never learn.

I love your background. Very calming effect

I have heard quite a bit about this on Jim Cornette and Brian Last's podcast and the actions of this man is appalling and I hope the podcasters get all the money they're owed

I don't know why a scammer would even agree to speak on a Coffeezilla video. It never ends well.

I love how Colin basically goes "well, we didn't have the money to pay them". That's not the creators' fault. You need to pay them.

You close with a good message. Great video man.

First ive seen of this dudes channel but that fkn interview is beautiful. Bravo

Coffeezilla: People are saying you stole 4 million dollars what do you say to that? Colin: I'm a musician originally...

After hearing from Collin, I’m loving that Theo called him out. Colin seems like a slimy dude, and he can’t talk without a full paragraph of bs first.

Connecting the dots in this way is so satisfying. It’s like troubleshooting tech. Good job on the video

I am used of guilty people saying that "they weren't aware of the crime" or knowing about the crime but saying "well, they gained something as a result."... stealing is stealing people 😩

I’m glad Theo isn’t being quiet about this or anything, calling him out by name and photo, I love it

Probably not a smart idea to scam creators who talk to the masses on a daily basis. Everyone will know his name especially after this episode. Great work as usual Coffeezilla

This was fantastic! Great info brotha

Amazing journalistic work! First time seeing your channel, impressed will sub for sure. What’s funny is Colin really tried to butter you up and he thought this interview was a good idea 😂 he only made it so much worse 😂😂

I wish this was a 20 minute video of Brendan continually adding more time and asking “Alright where’s the money?”

You know something is fishy when instead of answering a clear question someone tries to give a full speech of how great they are, and the many things they accomplished than others wouldn't have of.

Never thought I’d hear the name Jim Cornette outside of wrestling

"... Mind if I tell my story?". Translated means, 'dont interrupt my lies with truth!'

You know it’s bad when Brendan Schaub isn’t the villain of this story

Anytime someone talks around a question, they're 100% guilty.

Dude comes across as a scammer completely and instantly. "Don't interrupt me with relevant questions, I got a story to tell here!"

It's really simple. Never mess with Jim Cornette. The man is proof that real people can cast Vicious Mockery.

Thank god I thought Theo was caught up scamming😂

How nobody sued them after just 2 months of not getting payed is beyond me..

What I like the most about coffeezilla is that he doesn't let people play him. He is focused on extracting information and that's it. Direct. No BS.

*Every scammer Coffee confronts* “I appreciate what you do. You stop the bad guys”

It’s insane to me that these scammer guys are always willing to talk to Coffeezilla. Then again they’re probably just assuming that they’re smarter than all the other scammers he’s caught.

I love that rich people and scammers hiding their assets is so common theres a company that specializes in and blatantly advertises it

Great stuff, may favorite investigative journalist on the web

the most mind blowing thing tbh is the figures in which these podcasts are operating under. way more than I ever would've imagined, and those numbers are being thrown around like normal. says more about the money behind KZfaq that isn't seen.

Coffee truly holding the line when it comes to honest investigative journalism.

Man anyone who knows or knew a manipulator, narcissist, scammer, or conman can identify the way this dude Collin speaks. It gives me chills, the "I appreciate this, I appreciate that, I appreciate the work you do" like of crap, the setting the narrative in a forced calm type of speak, all that. It's wild these guys are so far deep into the con that they convince themselves they have everyone else convinced. Keep up the good work Coffee

Anyone else notice Colin kept looking up to the left when describing his stuff?

I do the same pen flip in my hand as Coffeezilla! Sick skills man! Great video.

I love how he gets visibly angry when Coffee doesn't follow his clearly rehersed speech about where the money went

He talks in Hollywood speak, just starts off with compliments, aka love bombardment and then goes off on a tangent on what they do is so great and special. This is how celebrities talk to each other to stroke each others egos. That's all it really takes to be part of that crowd and take advantage of each other if you want to, no matter how trash the ideas are.

They way you have grown over the past year is insane enjoy every minute of your channel 👌

Fun fun fun. Great video! ( Imagine all the KZfaq channels buying lessons thinking they will amount to something.......Fewer than 10% off all channels are monetized)

He knew they couldn’t pay, but threatened to sue his colleagues if they shared that information with potential clients. That alone is dishonest.

I love when the scammers talk to coffee and really think they’ll get out of it lol

Fantastic expose, I simply clicked on your channel and viola, perfection.

This reminds me of the Multi-Channel Network shit the happened in the 2010s... Similar situation of people getting rugged on royalties

Coffeezilla not only is a great journalist, but he really knows how to turn the facts into a compelling story.

Love how he immediately comes out the door with the whole narcissistic playbook lmao, first complimenting you to get on your good side, then side-stepping the question entirely by talking about some great vision and painting himself as the good guy, then being offended and playing the victim when you interrupt him, only to finally end up at denial, OF COURSE.

Man, not even excel. Google sheets.

When people start talking on circles instead of getting too the point, i immediately stop taking then seriously until they give me reason to stay believing them again.

You a f**king sterling example of what a journalist should be. Kudos, man. You're doing more good than any of us could possibly understand right now.

Note to self: if I ever bleach my hair like a d-bag and decide to rip people off, ignore Coffee’s invitation to explain myself.

I'm starting to believe that any corporation is corrupt. Every company has someone they wronged every time...

Bro that final line is ice cold man. And i love it 🎉

the hardest part of these videos is sitting through the interviewers with scammers. they are just always so uncomfortable to listen to every time

Unreal. I’ve been following this story since Jim Cornette mentioned it on his own podcast about a month ago. Then Theo noted a very similar experience about a week ago. Now Coffeezilla is on the case today 🤯

Well this was fascinating and now I have to subscribe.

With this amount of money at play I would have paid a lawyer from the beginning to see things through

It’s crazy how he drowns you in compliments and assurances while lying directly to your face 😂

I love that Bryan used "consider this a serious caution" right back at Colin and he considers his own phrasing a threat 😂

Crazy story and awesome video. Thanks 🙏
