Colleen Ballinger is Homeless - H3 After Dark #40

TL;DR

H3 After Dark episode 40 discusses Colleen Ballinger's homeless situation, her erratic behavior, and an upcoming tour, alongside rambling off-topic conversation.

Key Points

• 1.Colleen Ballinger is reportedly homeless. The hosts confirm it is not clickbait — she genuinely does not have a house, while simultaneously managing a tour and raising three kids.
• 2.The hosts theorize Colleen is not handling her life stress well. Ethan describes her as 'erratic' and says she does not seem to be coping well with homelessness, touring, and parenting simultaneously.
• 3.The hosts considered attending a Colleen Ballinger Miranda Sings show in disguise. They discussed going in a single trench coat with Harley on Ethan's shoulders to sit in the front row undetected.
• 4.Colleen is coming to Boston in June for her tour. Ethan and Harley floated the idea of attending as an 'After Dark pipe dream' but did not confirm plans.
• 5.Harley recalls seeing Colleen walk her then-husband on a leash at the Streamies. Other female creators present were visibly uncomfortable, while Harley, not knowing her real name, was confused why they kept calling Miranda 'Colleen.'
• 6.Kate has taken up roller skating, buying skates before learning. She bought used pink and lavender quad skates online, fell immediately, and has been practicing balance at home.
• 7.Kate's roller derby name is 'Bruisen B. Anthony,' a play on Susan B. Anthony, which she offered up freely since she says she will never actually join roller derby.
• 8.Harley co-hosted the episode as a Streamy Award winner. He noted he has five to seven Streamies and offered to donate them to H3, while Ethan has zero.
• 9.Harley voiced the character Jacob in Life is Strange 2, episodes three and four. The chat reacted excitedly, prompting Ethan and Kate to commit to finally playing the series.
• 10.Harley had a culture-shock experience at a gym in Japan. He was turned away for lacking his passport, then told to remove his shirt to check for tattoos, standing shirtless and covered in tattoos at the gym entrance.
• 11.Harley accidentally picked up a Square Enix executive during a Final Fantasy Epic Meal Time collab. A friend told him it 'felt racist' because of how big and white Harley was while doing it, though no one could fully articulate why.
• 12.The hosts discussed a viral TikTok/Instagram food reactor who grimaces at Indian and curry foods. They noted the video had 'racist coded' undertones, though the creator later made a separate video claiming he actually likes Indian food.
• 13.The hosts expressed frustration about anti-Indian and anti-Jewish hate surging on Canadian social media. Harley noted Canadian platforms shifted from anti-Asian COVID-era hate to anti-Indian hate, and now to anti-Black and antisemitic content over roughly 18 months.
• 14.Harley once sent his dog alone in an Uber on a 2.5-hour, $340 ride to Riverside, California. He used massive Uber tweet-credit deals — up to $1,500/week across three Twitter accounts — to fund this and other rides.
• 15.David had a poker-world update that the hosts repeatedly failed to get to. A state government had until April 9th to file charges in a significant poker scandal, but the conversation kept derailing before he could deliver the full story.
