Connor \u2018CDawgVA\u2019 Colquhoun is a Welsh Twitch streamer and voice actor, currently residing in Tokyo. Having begun his YouTube channel back in 2014, CDawgVA regularly hosts the Trash Taste podcast with features an array of popular guests from the world of streaming. Hosted alongside fellow YouTuber\u2019s Joey Bizinger and Garnt Maneetapho, the podcast has seen the likes of Michael Reeves, Ludwig Ahgren, and recently Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys. Shortly after Pokimane\u2019s appearance on CDawgVA\u2019s podcast, the streamer responded to criticism for involving her on the show. CDawgVA shuts down Pokimane podcast backlash: \u201cI don\u2019t really care\u201d During his September 12 Twitch livestream, CDawgVA fielded questions from his fans, one of which asked \u201ccan you talk about the subreddit drama?\u201d The streamer didn\u2019t hesitate to answer, explaining that: \u201cI don\u2019t really care. Sometimes the subreddit just gets like that. They just get in their own head and they work themselves up over nothing.\u201d \u201cAnd Trash Taste, we just film with the guests that we wanna film and we don\u2019t really care. We know that not every guest is gonna be like or wanted by the community,\u201d continued CDawgVA. \u201cIt\u2019s just how it\u2019s gonna be. If we had every guest on that everyone liked\u2026it would just be an echo chamber. I think we like having some people on even if they\u2019re \u2018controversial\u2019.\u201d CDawgVA said it is easier to \u201cjust have a conversation with people\u201d too, which is another factor in their guest selection decisions. Fans were critical of Pokimane\u2019s appearance on the podcast as CDawgVA and his hosts normally highlight growing creators in the world of anime, gaming, and the arts. Due to Pokimane\u2019s considerably large following and status, many listeners such as Redditor falloutboy9993 hope CDawgVA will consider this in the future. \u201cI hope they bring on more of the smaller creators. Relatively unknowns that are in the anime, gaming, culture, movie, and art industries. I think people get tired of seeing the same big names everywhere on YouTube and Twitch, \u201d said the Redditor. Another Redditor, Mildly_OCD was more forgiving of Pokimane\u2019s appearance: \u201cI think Poki has her fair share of legitimate criticism, but I\u2019m not gonna be mad at her or the boys being on the podcast.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CDawgVA responds to criticism for having Pokimane on TrashTaste podcast: \u201cwe don\u2019t care\u201d Instagram: CDawgVA, Twitch: PokimaneTwitch streamer CDawgVA has responded to growing backlash from fans following Pokimane\u2019s appearance on the Trash Taste podcast.
