It is unknown whether or not he has siblings.
Speedy attended Boiling Springs High School, Pennsylvania. It is not known whether or not he attended college after graduating from high school.
YouTube Career
Speedy started his YouTube channel in 2010.
His first videos were simply streams of his playing such titles as Call of Duty; Speedy himself did not appear in his videos at first, and he simply showed the gameplay footage.
After he hit 1 million subscribers, Speedy himself began appearing in the videos, commentating upon proceedings as he played. He has shown his face only after he reached 1 million subscribers.
He proved to be a charismatic addition to the clips, and the number of subscribers he had skyrocketed as a result.
Watson is extremely prolific on his secondary YouTube channel.
He has, as of August 2023, an astonishing 6.9 thousand videos uploaded, and tends to upload 7-8 new videos a week.
The vast majority of these videos are simply streams of him playing various video games, with Speedy himself present and commentating upon the game as he plays.
Speedy plays many different kinds of games on his channel.
At the time of writing, Minecraft predominates on his YouTube channel, but in the past he has played Call of Duty, Among Us, Modern Warfare 2, Mario Kart 8, WWE 2K22 and many more.
Watson also posts streams of various games on his primary YouTube channel. This channel is wildly popular, with over 6 million subscribers; however, in recent years, Speedy has concentrated much more on his secondary YouTube channel, perhaps in a bid to drive more traffic to it.
Twitch
Speedy also maintains a very successful Twitch channel, where he broadcasts 2-3 times a week. He is almost exclusively streaming Minecraft, though he has broadcast himself playing a variety of titles, as detailed above.
Watson broadcasts on Twitch every day of the week, though he takes most of the day off on Mondays, only broadcasting for a brief period in the evening.
Every other day he plays most of the evening, putting in around 3-4 hours each day. His streams average 25,000-50,000 views.
