The 2 German YouTubers MrTrashpack and HerrNewstime are simultaneously celebrating their comeback with their news formats. HerrNewstime left YouTube 3 years ago and MrTrashpack even 5 years ago. The two did not coordinate for their return.
Who are the veterans? It’s about the YouTubers MrTrashpack and HerrNewstime. They both are news YouTubers, and they discussed the latest developments in the German YouTube cosmos in their YouTube videos. In the 2010s, they were core members of the largest German YouTubers ensemble.
MrTrashpack uploaded the first episodes of his news format WuzzUp
in 2011. He is thus part of the first generations of German YouTubers. In WuzzUp, MrTrashpack talked about the latest YouTube uploads and beefs.
Moreover, he distributed the Win of the Week
for good actions and the Fail of the Week
for bad actions. At the end of an episode, MrTrashpack also introduced the Channel of the Week, where he provided his platform for smaller YouTube channels.
HerrNewstime started his career as a news YouTuber a bit later, in 2016. His image became clear quickly: He was the news YouTuber who processed new developments in the YouTube scene into a news video very quickly. That’s why a picture of HerrNewstime as Flash appears on his YouTube channel banner.
His signature phrase: The events are happening once again
. A phrase that has since become entrenched in German YouTube culture and is continuously used by other German content creators.
At the time of MrTrashpack and HerrNewstime, Gronkh was considered the biggest German YouTuber on the platform:
Best decision I could have made
Why did both YouTubers stop? MrTrashpack stopped his news format about 5 years ago, and HerrNewstime followed about 3 years ago. The reason for MrTrashpack was that he had declining view counts and viewers. He then tried his hand at short-form content on platforms like TikTok and music under the pseudonym Trashmann
.
Also, with HerrNewstime, the air eventually ran out. Reporting regularly on YouTube drama ceased to bring enjoyment to the YouTuber at some point.
During the absence of MrTrashpack and HerrNewstime, the YouTuber Streaven filled the gap left by the two content creators. He started his YouTube news career in 2024.
Why are the two coming back? Even though the two comebacks seem coordinated, that is not the case. HerrNewstime confirmed this in his latest YouTube video.
HerrNewstime kept his comeback justification relatively vague. He mentioned that he has motivation to publish videos again
. What exactly the reasons are, the YouTuber does not specify further. Ultimately, he describes his return with: “On the other hand, one can say, we used to do breaking news here and actually, we can continue to do that” (Source: YouTube from minute 00:46).
MrTrashpack described his comeback as follows:
For over 5 years this format was off the air and I can honestly tell you: that was the best decision I could have made. This way, I got the opportunity to reinvent myself, celebrated huge successes with this new content, learned a lot about myself during this time, and now I want to breathe new life into this completely broken channel.
