This NeoJoseph podcast episode delves into the recent controversy involving popular Twitch personality Pokimane. On March 1, 2023, Pokimane claimed during a Twitch livestream that a well-connected individual in the streaming industry had fabricated a romantic relationship with her as part of a scheme to manipulate and target women in her community. Despite being open with her fanbase about previous struggles, this revelation shocked many. The accused individual, who also worked for a large industry company, allegedly leaked privileged information and threatened self-harm if the women he targeted spoke out. The accused individual was well-connected and knew many other streamers, which made the situation even more concerning. Pokimane shared that multiple women in her community came forward with evidence of their conversations with the individual, which exposed his lies and manipulation.

Although the individual has reportedly been fired after an investigation, Pokimane expressed fear about what he might do next.
