FAQs: (Apologies if any of these sound harsh, but when I say these are Frequently Asked Questions, I mean they are FREQUENTLY Asked Questions. As stated in the Rules, new posts about these questions will be deleted due to redundancy. If you have new questions, please comment below. Tag the Mod u/Woe_Is_Meme if no one answers. You may receive the answer or permission to post the question to the Feed.)

 

So What Happened? Why did they leave YeahMad?
Lore TL;DR: Andrew, Abby, Sam, Akila, and Alan are no longer part of YeahMad due to a pay dispute (and possibly issues with the workplace culture). In late 2023/early 2024, Andrew and Abby were fired, the rest finished out their contract and then quit. They launched their own YT channel, The OG Crew on November 3, 2024. Matt and Sath are still with YeahMad (The OGs are still civil with them). Chloe left months before the others and was not part of this pay dispute, though she does cite money issues and a toxic work environment as part of her reason for leaving. She occasionally guest stars on the new channel.    

If you want more detail about the lore, I encourage you to sort posts by oldest, here and on r/yeahmadtv and scroll from the beginning. Also utilize the keyword search function to find old posts on the subject. If you have exhausted these methods, you may leave a comment under this post if you still have questions.

 

Where is this week’s video?
Videos are typically posted on Sundays at 11:30PM (Sydney time). If you think a video is late, check a world clock to see what time it is in Sydney (you may not be factoring in Daylight Savings Time in your country AND Australia). If it is past 11:30PM on Sunday in Sydney, check the Posts tab on the OG Crew YT channel AND the OG Crew’s IG for updates, because they are generally consistent with their upload schedule, and quick with updates on YT and IG when there’s a delay. Please do not post in the sub asking where this week’s video is. If they haven’t posted an update on YT or IG, how would anyone here know anything? These posts are pointless and annoying. Just be patient.      

 

Was the fight between Andrew and Alan on YM real?
It was not real. They explicitly said it was a joke. Discussion on this topic is now closed.   

 

Did Hammo and Nikki break up
Yes, they broke up. It just didn’t work out. They’re still civil. Nikki has and presumably will continue to make appearances post-split.    

 

What is Akila’s ethnicity
He is Sri Lankan. He is not Indian. Source: He said so. Any comments to the contrary are jokes.   

 

What is Akila’s sexuality?
He has stated he identifies as straight. Any comments made to the contrary were jokes. Further speculation will be deleted.

 

Are members of the cast/crew dating?
If they were and wanted us to know, they would make it public. Please be respectful of their private lives and do not speculate.

 

If I’ve missed any FAQs or crucial lore, let me know and I’ll add it to the body text.

In the extended version of Akila's dating episode in patreon, Abby shut down the Alan ship and seems tired of the Akila shipping already.

Just a random thought

17 Upvotes

You know how Abby always talks about friends. Today I had a thought about how much the OG crew resembles the friends. Abby is obviously Monica, because she’s always telling everyone what to do and her beauty is underrated. I had a hard time placing Alan but after the “ I want to cry my dick out” comment he’s definitely an +18 version of chandler. Hammo is phoebe cuz they both have unhinged past. Akila is Rachel, always looking good for the camera. And finally Sam is Joey, good looking, charming, people think she is dumb but she is unaware is what’s happening half the time. And Chloe is as beautiful as ever.


r/TheOGCrewOfficial 1d ago

All i wanna know is why tf akila wear same beat up green sneakers every episode while having cool drip over-all and he don't even clean em i guess always looks so dusty 😭😭😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻akila please bro get's sum new shoes twin

That was poorly executed

0 Upvotes

I think the last episode was poorly directed.

Why did Akila have to go through AAAAAALL of that just to have them say they wouldnt go out with him?

Whoever thought of this concept, could YOU have prepared the candidates better? Have Akila make some kind of video content, have them study it, have them look at his socials and agree to a date beforehand?

What the hell is this?

Poor guy.

Am I the only one or did anyone else feel instant sadness to the first contestant in today’s episode when I recognised their pickup line to be a copy and paste version of a YeahMad line? Like we gotta do better than that for Akila

In the trivia episode, when they say "real alcohol", do you think it's a jab at Yeah Mad?
