On August the 23rd, 2019, Josh would get SWATted when a troll called the Casper emergency line, saying that he lived at Josh's address and was planning to kill his wife and son. Josh, unknowingly streaming at the time, would receive a house call from the Casper PD to clarify - In full SWAT gear.
Timeline of Events
- Josh would boot up the stream and chill while talking shit to his Troles for about two hours. Among other topics, he would smoke his pipe, talk Gender Relations, plug Tactical Soap, and go through the motions as typical for streams of this age.
- Josh declares himself a feminist.
- While making a stankface, Josh announces his plans to review Deathbed Tapes in the coming videos while working on his wands.
- Josh denies that any outside sources are making wands - He spraypaints them in his apartment. This certainly won't be an issue down the road.
- After spending time banning trolls, Josh would go to Deathbed Tapes' website and take a look at some of their content - It becomes very obvious, very quickly, that Deathbed specializes in the kind of experimental, borderline-noise content that Josh's music is best described as. After saying “Hell yeah” and “I can get down with that” Josh declares that he's willing to partner with Deathbed Tapes.
- Cobes previews the song “Smoking Cannabis in the Clock Tower” off of his next album, Hell's Advocate. He says he's very interested in getting his music on Deathbed Tapes' website.
- Josh teases another track off Hell's Advocate, Don't Blame the Devil.
- After an excessive amount of dead air with the occasional reply to troll comments, Josh raps about his dead homeboy Alex Anderson. Josh has a brief trip through memory lane thinking about Alex.
- The dead air resumes.
- Josh raps about being autistic to the beat from Tupac Shakur's Changes.
- The next 40 or so minutes pass with little fanfare and bizarre, hare-brained questions from viewers.
- Josh suddenly decides to abandon his stream entirely and hang around outside for around 10 minutes, grabbing some TacoTime in the process.
- Josh would do an impromptu food review of his TacoTime spanning around 10 minutes before getting a particularly violent knock at the door.
- The Casper Police have shown up in full force, and immediately take Josh outside while a team goes in and secures the apartment. Various objects including the Bike and a wand are knocked over in the SWAT team's urgency.
- With everything cleared and the Bike thoroughly assaulted, the stream ends.
Aftermath
The SWATting event is easily one of the most influential moments in Josh's elongated YouTube career, as Josh had set-in-stone proof that his trolls sought his misfortune by any means necessary. Josh would be thrust into the local public eye from this, as Casper had never had to deal with a SWATting of a “famous” YouTuber before. Josh would be interviewed by the Casper Star, and instead of losing a following, would instead gain notoriety as a gothic rockstar bad boy.
Perhaps most importantly, this would cause Josh to start streaming almost exclusively to YouTube, as he started making quite a lot of money from this period of distress. So much money that he wouldn't have to worry about making wands, or new T-shirts. Suffice it to say, the lowest points in Boglim History often bring the highest highs yet seen.
