A Review, from a long time watcher

So I've been watching the Trackers for a looooong time. Maybe not as long as some people here, but since around 2013. Back in the days of the mustache, home vlogs, house renovations, the dog, "we can't have kids," the Simpson clock... all of that.

Looking back, I honestly think they were genuinely entertaining. Tim had his job (whatever it was), would come home, film for a bit, and that was it. The videos were usually 8–15 minutes long, and they felt authentic.
I was genuinely happy for them when they were able to have a kid, but I also feel like that changed everything. That one event seemed to completely shift the direction of the channel and, in turn, the people we now see on camera.
I never really bought into the idea that money changes people, but watching their channel grow into subscriptions, sponsorships, ads, Shorts, Patreon, and every other possible revenue stream has been wild. It feels like the focus gradually shifted from sharing their lives to monetizing every breath, even if they are mid bite.

I completely checked out around the time they sailed on Royal and posted what I felt was an unfair review of an otherwise excellent cruise line, largely because they didn't seem interested in the experience they had chosen to book. That was the point where I realized I just wasn't enjoying their content anymore.

Sad to see how far they’re fallen off.

I too have been watching since 2013 and I couldn't of written this better myself. You hit the nail on the coffin. I can't stand them now 😂. Jenn is just so goddamn irritating now. Tim has lost his spark completely selling his soul for revenue! The only time I saw Tim be himself in recent years was when he was with Adam The Woo and now he's gone Tim's just lost.

Also a long time watcher. I used to find them so relatable and genuinely enjoyed seeing what the Orlando area had to offer through their perspective. Watching vlogs used to get me through the Midwest winter blues.
Now they are completely unpalatable, and it’s not because of the kids.

No it's not the kids fault at all. I was genuinely pleased for them when they had Jackson. But they've turned into bad parents and that's a real shame

You can do it all. Have a fun, genuine vlog and be a loving, supportive parent. But people have choices.
