Chris Hardwick will be hosting the Streamys on February 17, but Nerdist’s leading man isn’t waiting until then to schmooze with some of YouTube’s biggest celebrities. Hardwick stars in the latest episode of Nerdist’s popular All-Star Celebrity Bowling series, where he invites the stars of three of YouTube’s biggest channels–Rooster Teeth, FreddieW, and Barely Political–to hit the lanes with him.
With three of YouTube’s top 50 most subscribed channels represented, there are about ten million fans who now have the chance to watch their favorite creators struggle at Hardwick’s sport of choice. Burnie, Joel, Gavin, and Gus of Rooster Teeth all struggle to knock down the pins, FreddieW goes from hopelessly geeky to surprisingly competent in the span of ten frames, and Todd and Mark of Barely Political’s Key of Awesome hold their own alongside Hardwick, leading to another win for Team Nerdist.
I’m glad Hardwick listened to his commenters and invited some of his fellow YouTubers to his show. I hope he’ll continue to take our suggestions; there are a pair of #1 YouTubers who would bring plenty of fun and shouting to the lanes.
