Jessy’s back from the European road, the studio is cold enough to store meat, and the revolution is officially underway. Episode 3 of “Shooting the Sh1t with Steve & Jesse” is out now on Spotify and YouTube, and it might just be the most consequential episode yet. Oh, and CKDS Radio goes live tonight on Facebook for Episode 6 at 7:30pm GMT. More on that below.
What’s in Episode 3: The CKDS & 8KFLIKZ Revolution
After weeks apart, Steve and Jessy are reunited in what Steve has taken to calling the “ice fortress” studio, a space that is apparently insulated against everything except actual cold. They troubleshoot live as the show kicks off, because of course they do, and the technical gremlins make their customary early appearance before the conversation finds its rhythm and absolutely takes off.
What follows is one of the most revealing episodes the show has produced so far. This isn’t just two friends catching up after a road trip. This is a proper state-of-the-nation address for everything Steve has been quietly building, and the scope of it.
The Business Pivot: Steve lays out a major strategic shift, stepping back from the eBay and Amazon marketplace grind and committing fully to a licensable, digital-first business model centred on 8KFLIKZ. For anyone who has followed Steve’s work over the years, this is a significant moment. He’s done playing by other platforms’ rules.
8K DVD and Gaming: Just when you thought 8KFLIKZ was purely a film restoration project, Steve reveals the development of a native 8K DVD system and a brand new video game adaptation of Night of the Living Dead. Yes, really. The ambition here is staggering, and the episode gives you a proper sense of how these pieces fit together into something much bigger than a YouTube channel.
The Snipe Factor: The growth of Snipesocial gets some well-deserved attention here. Steve talks candidly about building an alternative social platform where user satisfaction actually comes first, no algorithmic manipulation, no engagement-bait mechanics, just a community that works the way social media was supposed to before it got weird. CKDS Radio lives there too, and it’s worth following.
Radio Resurrection: The full roadmap for CKDS Radio’s return to proper strength gets laid out in this episode, including the Live365 legacy, the vision for intercontinental content creation, and what the deepening collaboration between 8KFLIKZ and CKDS actually means in practice. If you’ve been wondering where all of this is heading, Episode 3 is where the picture starts to come together.
We’re Live Tonight for Episode 6
As if a packed Episode 3 wasn’t enough, tonight at 7:30pm GMT Steve and Jessy go live on CKDS Radio’s Facebook page for Episode 6. If you’ve never caught a live CKDS broadcast before, tonight is a good place to start. There will be real-time chaos, unfiltered conversation, and absolutely no guarantee that everything will work perfectly. That’s the point. That’s always been the point.
Get caught up on Episode 3 first, then come join the madness live.
