DEE! So pumped to watch this. Been subbed to him since 300K when I was in middle school haha. He's a massive inspiration for me starting my channel. Most excited I've been for a C&S interview! 🔥

This was great! Loved the convo and it's super interesting that many long-time YouTubers have a background in sports whether in college or high school and that sort of being the launching pad. Sometimes you need a trailblazer to open the door for others and glad Dee is finally getting his flowers for what he did!

This was one of my FAVOURITE episodes of yours!! He seems so down to earth & passionate about what he does. Love when people do what they're passionate about & are then able to retire their parents. Back in to vlogging and I'm excited to share my journey through life 😊

One of my favorite parts about this channel is how diverse the guests are and how many new people you turn me onto. I would've never come across Dee in my life ever. I don't normally consume sports content, but his story is so inspiring and beneficial to be aware of for students across the world as well as people who just need a reminder to believe in themselves and trust their gut with their choices. Thanks as always to everyone at Colin & Samir for this episode ❤

Two years ago I remember scrolling through Facebook videos and came across Dee's 1on1's. I don't play football and barely watch football, but was instantly engaged in them. Really does a great job to hook you in!

Mega impressed. Hadn't heard of Deestroying before this interview. So good to hear his story and be inspired by what he is doing. Learning so much from these interviews beyond creator support.
