I typically join in on his Friday night live streams but noticed he wasn’t streaming tonight and all of his videos up until 11 months ago have been removed. Am I missing something?

Never heard of him and he apparently was streaming yesterday and it's available on his YouTube channel and looks like plenty of recent content. Watched a few minutes as long as I was there - I'd suggest you didn't miss anything - spoiler alert, he is apparently experiencing forced early retirement soon and otherwise rambles on about nothing - never understood the appeal of watching someone just talk for the sake of talking, but I don't like beets, many do.

Maybe just slow season for him. I didn' watch this content in question, but he does all kind of videos-reviews, repairs, etc. He personally helped me with a corn cob repair. Very good guy. Really knowledgeable.

CaneRod's friday stream is just a gathering of pipe enthusiasts and the topics vary according to where the conversation takes them. It's not necessarily pipe centric. It's a virtual pipe lounge. He's not making a presentation so much as chatting with whoever shows up.

Everything doesn't have to be a blend review or a how-to-smoke-your-pipe video. Sometimes it's just a conversation. If that doesn't appeal to you, don't go. I usually show up for a few minutes but ..... SQUIRREL... happens and I wander off on some other thing.

Agreed, its so tiring seeing all these new YTPC presenters that only talk about pipes, blends, etc. It has its place but when a blend has been reviewed 100 times, no one really cares. I enjoy CaneRodPipe and NWPipesmoker because they just talk, I feel like I am at a virtual pipe club getting a good convo with someone

Canerod was one of the first YouTubers I’d watch along with Matches
He’s a good guy
More of a 13 pipes guy these day
My take on “ytpc” is is kind of nonsense especially these days
I watch the father son reviews of pipe tobacco and whiskey but everything else is just “….blah blah blah”

I really enjoy the German piper woman whom only shows up for Christmas time reviews every year.

The YTPC is a mixed bag. I like one reviewer for his work but he constantly ruins his reviews with random soundboard noise.
