Hi I'm Funkstyles!
I'm an eSports Journalist from Australia and truly trying my best to start a new Career covering the greatest news eSports and Gaming have to offer!
I'm a guy who has just reached his thirties, i've spent the last 20 years of my life working deadend "Sales" jobs because I've always had the "Gift of the Gab" as we say in Australia. When COVID lockdowns and restrictions came into place I noticed myself in a real hole, depressed, working everyday just to get through it and pay my bills, no direction or passion... I was "Washed Up" as they say.
I had a lightbulb moment in the brink of self-destruction though, on a MDMA, Alcohol, Coke and Weed fueled night of self sabotage and debauchery I found myself asking "Why can't I follow my dreams?" - Perhaps it was the induced sense of self importance, masked with the confidence of cocaine... Hell, I couldn't come up with one reason why I couldn't follow my dreams.
I quit my job the following week.. After a year of living off my Savings, Crypto Profits, Gambling while I tried to build my Loot Freak gaming page I realized, this wasn't working out. I took the L and decided to move on. A new idea... One I've been thinking about for years... An Esports YouTube Channel that gives you a professional and upto date news and interviews from todays biggest "E" Stars, Be it Content Creators, Pro Players and more...
I've now completed two interviews with superstars of the DOTA 2 eSports world, Godz and CCnC and I have some REALLY exciting stuff coming up with some more huge names..
I find myself brooding in anxiety before these interviews, going over facts, researching, making sure the guest is comfortable then boom, it is go time and everything fades away for that time we are speaking, there is no voice in my head wondering about tomorrow or a bill that I can't afford right now, it's just boom straight down the pipe amazing conversation.
Anyway, this was a little about your guy Funk and what this page will be about!
Be sure to say hi in the comments, and if there is anything I should know or learn please say so!
I'll be posting my interviews, thoughts and updates as time goes on!
