I didn't end up watching the shows very much but it always sucks to see a community member leave. Best of luck Chanman!

I hope they come back together like once a month to talk about favourite stuff they've seen/done in the meatime. Unless he means to give up following e-sports entirely... :/

I looked forward to watching Unfiltered every week, sad to see it come to an end. I respect him wanting to be there for his family more and watch his kids grow up, that is commendable. I hope another show might fill the void left behind. Best of luck Channelman!

I didn't watch a lot of his shows, but i loved his hearthstone casting. I hope he continues doing tournaments occasionally.

NO! I love this show!

Sad to hear it's over. Perhaps things will change or someone else will run a show like it in its stead. It's neat to hear about the news regarding multiple games in a low-bullshit environment even though I'm not personally invested in them, just as a take for what's going on with the genre as a whole.

Best of luck in everything, Chanman!

wat?
unfiltered literally was on like 20 mintues ago.
did he announced retirement there?

Yes.

any specific reason or just moving on?

His reason was his family, he wants to spend more time with them and his shows are so time consuming.

That's too bad, Unfiltered was a particularly useful show too.
I really liked the guy.

Also means there's no regular SC2 talk show at all anymore. =(

To put so much time and effort into something for so long and then give it up once you actually get recognized for the good work you do and get a lot of viewers in order to spend time with your family really speaks to what kind of man Chanman is. Thanks for all the shows and countless hours of entertainment Unfiltered has brought me. gg

Sorry to hear that, I will miss Unfiltered.

I'm surprised that not one or two but ALL of his show are gone.
I mean he had like 4 or 5 show per week and even if he kept going with one, he still would have more freetime than before... I guess ?
