I've actually been thinking the same thing. He's acting pretty similarly to the way he acts after he's buzzed. My dad is an alcoholic and acted similarly when he relapsed so I wonder if there could be some sort of drinking problem. I realize this very well could be a stretch, but he just seems even more over the top than usual. I sincerely hope I'm wrong for Gaines' and Brooks' sake!

But it's ok to expose his sister's drug habit and prison tone no problem?

Protecting privacy is just a funny argument imo given the exposure their channel has brought to their family. After all, like I said, their last name is now being included in articles and Wikis about them.

No, I wish Cullen's sisters privacy had been protected as well since they're not open about that.

(to whatthepho: that's okay, lots of other YouTubers on here who are less private are referred to by their last names so I can see why you'd do it!)

I don't think it's ok to expose that stuff. It was exposed well before I started posting here though.. I actually found out about that stuff here. I don't think his sister and her issues are fair game Bc she's not on the blogs and not discussed on the vlogs. I'm always one of the ones defending her, saying that it isn't Cullen's story to share on YouTube. If he does decide to talk about it or wshe if she is ever in the vlog again and she talks about it then yes, fair game. But I just don't feel right about dragging her through the mud here when it's not common "vlog knowledge". I feel the same way about Bryan's mother and stepfather situation.

Hmmmm... I haven't noticed anything different, and I'm always very critical of Cullen.

Yes. Both of them. quite a few tipsy vlog endings over the years but nothing that seemed like anything more than responsible adult alcohol consumption. To me anyway.

Yeah they do sometimes, especially Cullen (you can tell cuz he gets really annoying lol), but not that frequently, it never seems that excessive or irresponsible. I think Cullen has been just fine recently.

Also, aww the intro in today's vlog. I'm such a softie for C&K.

because it doesn't ring to be true. Sorry for offending you.

This is important because how would anyone new that comes to their channel and looks them up know that they wanted their name private at some point? Most other vloggers are referred to as their last names on these boards, and I foresee this happening more and more now that it's out there.
A lot of vloggers are actually purposely revealing their last names because it increases the chances of cross promotion. Bratayley did it, and a few other vloggers have. Bratayley did it when they started pushing Annie's acting and singing career. A lot of people knew their name because of Caleb dying and the news that surrounded it, but they didn't actually release it until late last year, or early this year (can't remember). But the people who want to use their YouTube "fame" to leapfrog into more mainstream fame are releasing their last names. "Annie Leblanc's new song" is a lot easier to say than "Annie from Bratayley"

There was a vlog that we discussed here that seemed like Cullen was drunk/high in his car in the beginning. Some people voiced their doubts but I was positive at the the time. Wish I remembered the name so we could go back and take a second look.

We discussed it on Nov 26/16.

We also discussed Cullen filming (and making fun of) someone while intoxicated on his Periscope. Like I said, I like the guy but it's hard to care about respecting his privacy if he doesn't care enough to respect others'.

I remember it was a football weekend. Since HS gave the date, it should be pretty easy to find.

it's the beginning. My original judgement still stands tbh. So yeah, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he drinks a lot off camera. Add that to the possible list of reasons that he stays up so late and absolutely refuses to wake up in the mornings and take care of his children.

Yeah that's what I thought but I didn't want to say it. He looks intoxicated lately in most of the vlogs. It's his eyes and voice. I don't want to spread rumors, and I've defended Cullen before but that's totally what it looks like to me (coming from a child of an alcoholic).

He could just need to stop eating sodium filled pho and eating out all the time. That and not getting enough sleep can make anyone look haggard and bloated. He probably feels like garbage, too.

I don't think he has an alcohol problem. I think his issues are that he stays up too late, eats unhealthy food, doesn't exercise, and wears his contacts too long every day (and sometimes sleeps in them). He also stares at a computer screen for a long time editing, and I'm sure he does it in the dark a lot which can strain his eyes. I also think he has a goofy sense of humor that is amplified when he is around his "buddies" or on college game days.
