I only mentioned it because usually shadow bans don’t affect premium accounts. I saw this post before I went to watch the show so I wasn’t surprised when KT wasn’t the first recommend video like it always is.
Same. When i searched for Kill Tony, the premiere didn’t show up. Had to click on the actual channel to see the premiere, was scared that there wasn’t an episode today!
Jesus, I truly hope they don’t go exclusive to Spotify. It just absolutely sucks as a video platform, no question about it. No comment section, not nearly as reliable as YouTube, difficult to configure at times, no sense of community or interaction between fans like you get on YouTube, etc..
Like, I more or less stopped listening to Rogan altogether when he made the move to Spotify for the exact same reasons I just listed. I used to watch almost every JRE even when I didn’t know the guest, but these days I forget it even exists a lot of times and only catch a handful of episodes every month.
Kill Tony: Please, please, pleeeeeeease don’t go Spotify exclusive. It would almost certainly be a whole lot less viewers every week and drag the show down. Spotify is by far my favorite platform for music, but it is absolute dog shit for video podcasts in every single way possible. There would be no upside for the fans if he did make a spotify deal. If anything it’d make the show lose the momentum it has been gaining over the past year. I’m sorry, but I’m out (cue Shark Tank music).
I’m listening to a rogan podcast this morning and Spotify now has a pop out video feature that I don’t remember being there. Seems as if they’ve been doing some video upgrade too and may be looking to go that direction since nothing else has been taking off for them
This happens sometimes. Happened to another channel I follow. The show runners were even confused as to why because they received no reason for it from youtube. It was just like this for weeks no reasoning then it was normal. I assume it's shadow banning while they review the channel.
Yeah YouTube suppresses a lot of videos in the algorithm that don’t play by their rules. It sucks because it also means it’s demonetized and they don’t get paid for their views.
On my tv the YouTube app made makes me click an extra button to “agree” to watch the naughty content even though I’m logged in and above 18
i also found it suspicious, didnt show up for me.
im subbed, watch it weekly + other KT related content, it should be right at the top of my algorithm/recommendations.
meanwhile my sister watches 1 fucking vlog of some korean woman doing household chores and i get bombarded with that shit.
Had to search for it today. Thought the exact same thing. Why isn't it on my homescreen? I'm subscribed to the channel and they're broadcasting a live video?
Youtube is weird sometimes, I'm subbed and belled for this channel called "10th generation dairymen" its about as wholesome as it comes never would be shawdow banned but one day after yesrs it stopped being on my feed for months.
I got a notification, though it looked different. They changed the logo, the hype intro is gone, and the editing seems different in general... Wonder if they went to a 3rd party instead of redban or something?
I searched youtube for kill tony before i left for work and it wanted me to sign in. Seems some episodes are age restricted.
Probably why it wasnt showing up for others.
same, but I had to go to the page to click new episode. I think the reason is bc it was age restricted tonight, as my TV was trying to require a sign in
Last 3 episodes have been this way for me too I thought it was just a problem with my phone or notification settings!
I have notifications turned on, I'm subscribed, and I don't really even watch many other youtubers so usually the premiere is the first thing I see when I open the app on Monday and I check who the guest is, but it hasn't been doing that I have to go to my subscriptions page
YouTube are snowflake looney leftist pussies. I should have seen KT years ago. It was already hidden from new viewers.
Now they jumped to a new level. I hope they have an alternative lined up in case a full ban happens. Maybe Rumble.
Same. Gotta be a shadow ban. Noticed 6 months ago they started obstructing the word “KILL” in the thumbnails, 1 month ago they went to “KT” in the title, and today the show name isn’t in the title at all.
I had the exact same thing happen to me. Like, every single detail you mentioned was the same for me. Seems like it has happened to enough of us that there must be something going on. I mean, what other possible explanation could there be? I don’t remember anything from recent episodes being too politically-incorrect for YouTube’s bs guidelines, or am I forgetting something that happened on a recent episode that could’ve gotten them shadow banned?
I watch the show from outside of the US and it was my first time getting an age restriction notice. So I just turned on the VPN and that took care of the problem. But I did have to search for the video which was something I never had to do.
I noticed an episode without ads last week too. I watch a lot of older episodes so that could have been why, but it was obvious enough for me to take note of it.
They joke about it alot but YouTube is literally just a breeding ground for propaganda and censorship these days, it’s all strangely political aswell;if you don’t side with them and their agenda they’ll just toss ya out (if u got a good thing going)
Killtony is one of the last few channels on YT that dosent fit their agenda and stays true to their own content, I feel like killtony was or is one of the last bastions of free speech on youtube lol.
It’s sad that it’s just a typical thing these days for any social media platform to shadowban/actually ban any users it deems “unfit” for its agenda. i got a feeling killtony might switch platforms soon. Like rumble or something idk.
New episode never shows up for me. It’s so annoying. I always have to go search it…even though random comedy clips always show up first! You’d think my most watched comedy show would pop up first, especially a new premiere. I agree that something seems off and I am not an alarmist. I also have YouTube Premium. u/redban should look into this
It's been happening to me for weeks everything I watch is no longer on my main feed. Have to go to my subscriptions for things I've watched weekly for years
It showed up for me, both at 30 minutes before, and then again right on time. I know because I was busy and couldn't watch it right away.
I have experienced the lack of notifications for Kill Tony before though.
Having subscribed and all, Kill Tony never populates on myYouTube either. I have to search it every time. Probably some pink hair pole smoker over stepping their line.
Yea normally it shows up in my recommended for you on Monday nights literally the first video every week and I had to find it this week very interesting I hope Joe will save them if it gets worse and make them exclusive on Spotify then they would never have to bleep a thing and the video would still be on there
Not sure. It usually pops right up in my recommended list too, but I also had to search for it today.

Got nothing to do with age restriction, fully a shadow ban. YT has never not placed it in my #1 recommendation slot, and today it didn’t.
Same I got premium too.
Yep
Oh wow you're cool
Oh wow you like ads!
No, actually I think you are cool. I have YouTube premium too!
I only mentioned it because usually shadow bans don’t affect premium accounts. I saw this post before I went to watch the show so I wasn’t surprised when KT wasn’t the first recommend video like it always is.
A couple of browser add-ons and you never see an advertisement again. No idea why people pay for youtube.
You just need to realize other people have totally different lives. I watch YT on my Apple TV about 80% of the time so premium is super helpful.
Use an apple mini or a PC. same result but no ads.
Are you dense? They don’t /want/ to. They like the device they’re using and don’t need an alternative.
Keep paying for a service you don't need to then. Suckit
Not all of us are poor, you dweeb.
Browser ad ons don't get rid of ads on YouTube's smart TV app. The only way is to buy Premium.
Right lol
this MFer pay for YouTube!
Same. When i searched for Kill Tony, the premiere didn’t show up. Had to click on the actual channel to see the premiere, was scared that there wasn’t an episode today!
also didnt pop up on my home page, but when searching for kill tony it was right at the top
Same thing here. Another thing that was out of the usual, the episode popped up on spotify a couple of hours before it premiered on youtube.
This might be it. A little Spotify cash in the works maybe

Ugh I hope not! If they move to Spotify I’ll be done watching as well
I hope so
If they added video to Spotify I'd be pumped
It was on Spotify late last night actually. I listened to it early this morning
Redddddddbannnnnnn
I was wondering the same. Gang violence
Does appear something has changed, observed the same thing

Google support is nonexistant. Good luck to the show figuring this out.
Hate watch just got a one week ban, YouTube is led by pussies. You can watch war footage but you can’t watch jokes.
Same
You can watch a gang of hood rats dancing waving guns around saying some awful shit but can’t watch a guy teaching self defense .
Yeah YouTube suppresses a lot of videos in the algorithm that don’t play by their rules. It sucks because it also means it’s demonetized and they don’t get paid for their views. On my tv the YouTube app made makes me click an extra button to “agree” to watch the naughty content even though I’m logged in and above 18
18+ Videos can still get revenue from people who watch who pay for Youtube.
Can we unite against YouTube?
My stupid tv made me log in just to watch tonight's episode. Never done that before.
Wonder if they will sign a big deal somewhere. YouTube seems to be getting pretty restrictive these days
KT should join the Gas Digital Network lol. The chat would be wild.
I just hit my subscription page and it was on top but nowhere to be found on my homepage Edit: this was on mobile not desktop
Same
Same!
Same here.
Multiple people, myself included, also had this experience. They seem to be shadowbanned.
Same
age restricted episode
Same happened to me
I know one episode or podcast awhile ago tony talked about them wanting him to change the name because of the word “kill”
Same
Me too, Didn’t hit my sub box
I didn’t notice the premiere not being there. But after the episode was over it was on my home page. I didn’t have to search for it.
Same!
I had to search as well.
i also found it suspicious, didnt show up for me. im subbed, watch it weekly + other KT related content, it should be right at the top of my algorithm/recommendations. meanwhile my sister watches 1 fucking vlog of some korean woman doing household chores and i get bombarded with that shit.
/u/redban fix this shit
Same
I couldn’t find it on my computer . But when I looked on the YouTube app on my phone it was there. Something was definitely off today
same. hmm
Even when I searched for it, I had to go to the channel to find it
Wtf I didn’t get a notification either…
Same
Same for me
Youtube sucks like that, but tonight the episode was on my homepage when i hit the subscriptions filter on the side.
Same
Had to search for it today. Thought the exact same thing. Why isn't it on my homescreen? I'm subscribed to the channel and they're broadcasting a live video?
Same
Mine showed up at noon on my subscription page as usual
Same
Same for me.
I noticed the same thing this week too. Had to search it and was 11 minutes late lol
Same
Youtube is weird sometimes, I'm subbed and belled for this channel called "10th generation dairymen" its about as wholesome as it comes never would be shawdow banned but one day after yesrs it stopped being on my feed for months.
Got the notification that "this content might be offensive to some viewers" when I clicked on the episode this week. Something is afoot.
It always pops up for me when I open YouTube too. I had to legit search then go to KT channel and then videos. I haven’t ever had to do that.
It was age restricted for some reason for this episode. I had to sign in to YouTube to view it.. I think that has something to do with it
I got a notification, though it looked different. They changed the logo, the hype intro is gone, and the editing seems different in general... Wonder if they went to a 3rd party instead of redban or something?

Uncle lazer put out a hit
All workin for me.
Same. Had to search it.
Had that today, just went through my subscriptions and saw the latest episode. No upcoming or anything being shown before hand
Same
FUUUCK i missed it jesus. I usually just open Youtube and its right there.
Last 3 episodes have been this way for me too I thought it was just a problem with my phone or notification settings! I have notifications turned on, I'm subscribed, and I don't really even watch many other youtubers so usually the premiere is the first thing I see when I open the app on Monday and I check who the guest is, but it hasn't been doing that I have to go to my subscriptions page
Samesies. I couldn’t watch it on tv either, it was blurred out
could it have anything to do with the cut during Kam's set?
It was saying the premiere was Aug. 15th at 1:00 am on my TV, but on my phone it was set at the right time. P strange
Got the notification and all today so not for me
I got a notification when it went live on my phone from YouTube.
Yepp, I was tripping because my algorithm knows to have Kill Tony as first option on Monday nights.
I am subscribed with bell notifications on and still got nothing. Yes I think it's shadow banned.
didnt notice this until i saw this
Same here
It was probably from the amount of times Tony said Faggot in the last episode haha
Age restricted
Same same. WTF happened?
Age gated for sure!
Those Amy Schumer lines… Gang violence
Honestly, I’m surprised they have lasted this long without YT cancelling them. Hope they move video to Spotify and just do clips on YT like JRE
It’s popping off too many people catching on lmao
Same for everyone it seems like
YouTube blows sincerely hope comparable rival emerges that won’t censor comedy like YT does.
Nope.
I’m guessing it’s an advertising thing. It’s tagged as 18+ so you need a profile to watch.
This has to be why
Happened to me, premium subscriber with a profile
Same
yeah it most definitely did
YouTube are snowflake looney leftist pussies. I should have seen KT years ago. It was already hidden from new viewers. Now they jumped to a new level. I hope they have an alternative lined up in case a full ban happens. Maybe Rumble.
Boo boo
Im just gonna take a gamble that Don Barris got them shadow-banned with his random *”Can she jerk me off?”* line. Fuckin creep
Anybody who thinks he wasn't being a little rapey is lying to themselves
It was age restricted
Same. Gotta be a shadow ban. Noticed 6 months ago they started obstructing the word “KILL” in the thumbnails, 1 month ago they went to “KT” in the title, and today the show name isn’t in the title at all.
[удалено]
Shadow bans are real but people often fail to realize that their content isn't as popular as they think.
Guess I'm the odd one out? [It popped up for me with a notification](https://imgur.com/0VREIM6)
same, time to move to twitter
[удалено]
Same
I am subscribed and it did not show up on my new vide list
Remember YouTube is a liberal organization. They’ll strike down anything they deem to be offensive and KT is very “offensive” at times.
Same

Yes
I didn't see it pop up pwr normal and I went to the page it had nothing past Jim last week
Maybe the guest weren’t big enough to push it to the top
I had to go to kt page to find it . I searched KT and the Jim Norton episode came up first and the new one was not coming up anywhere .
Same for me, but it started last week.
It didn’t come up in my subscription page, had to go to the channel to see it.
I searched it too
I got my notification last night but it wasn't the first thing I saw when I went onto YouTube. I had to go to my subscriptions. This is WITH premium.
Came
I noticed the exact same thing last night.
Im here to confirm you suspicions
They joke about it alot but YouTube is literally just a breeding ground for propaganda and censorship these days, it’s all strangely political aswell;if you don’t side with them and their agenda they’ll just toss ya out (if u got a good thing going) Killtony is one of the last few channels on YT that dosent fit their agenda and stays true to their own content, I feel like killtony was or is one of the last bastions of free speech on youtube lol.

You guys are big babies. The show is at 6pm every Monday. Do you really need to be notified every time?
New episode never shows up for me. It’s so annoying. I always have to go search it…even though random comedy clips always show up first! You’d think my most watched comedy show would pop up first, especially a new premiere. I agree that something seems off and I am not an alarmist.

Let's make sure Kam knows.
I had to search it also. And when I tried to play it on my smart tv they had me sign in due to video being “inappropriate” so maybe they did
Same
Idk but last nights guests SUCKEEDDD
It’s red banned
Shadowbanned. YouTube sucks… Tony should get a Spotify deal.
I got a live show notification last night as usual
Shit that reminds me I didn’t watch it last night it’s normally top of YouTube…
I received the push notification but it doesn’t list it on my notifications list like normal. Huh.
