Bio

Greetings! My name is Captain Richard, and I’ve been a Twitch Partner for 8 years. After a career as a military IT contractor, I made the switch to becoming a full-time online broadcaster, growing my channel and brand into what it is today. Streaming is my passion, and I love entertaining people and making them laugh!

 

I cover a variety of games, but my love for space and sci-fi games, in particular, stems from my upbringing. My military pilot father, who adored flight sims and space games, had a significant influence on me. With his Dad jokes and early adoption of IT, he helped shape the person I am today.

 

Although I take a humorous approach to most things, I am a dedicated and committed content creator, streaming five nights a week consistently for over eight years. I have found my niche, which allows me to be my silly self on the internet and enjoy every minute of it.

 

This wouldn’t be possible without my incredibly dedicated and supportive community, which values ridiculous humor as much as intensely nerdy details about the games I stream. Bouncing ideas and bad jokes off my community is super rewarding and gives me a sense of kinship with the audience I stream to every weeknight. Thanks to them, I am realizing my dream of being an online entertainer, and for that, I am thankful!

Social

Working with SIDEQUEST has been thoroughly enjoyable. They are consummate professionals and have opened my eyes to the wider gaming industry at large. With their encouragement and coaching, I transformed from a single-genre streamer to someone who embraces variety with great success and a greater love for content creation in general. It's no small statement to say that my career has never been better, and I owe a great deal of that to the team at SIDEQUEST.
