Some videos became later publicly available again, and as of April 28, 2022, there were 16 public videos on the ''Badger Live Streams'' YouTube channel. Since then, a lot more videos have come back, but not all.

Honey Badger Radio refers to the YouTube channels HoneyBadgerRadio and Badger Live Streams, as well as episodes that were never available on either of those but on alternative platforms instead because of the disappearance of the latter channel's videos on April 14, 2022. Honey Badger Radio is hosted by a group of Honey Badgers and supporters in the Honey Badger Brigade and they regularly do discussions about news items and other topics. Each Badger has their own avatar which is normally (but not always) seen on screen whenever that person is live. Some members of the Honey Badger team appear on the channels more frequently than others.

Sub-shows

Honey Badger Radio features many different kinds of series of live streams of different styles and focuses.

Badger Bite

Badger Bite is a show style that was launched by Alison Tieman and Brian Martinez launched on January 23, 2022 with this unnumbered episode being the first. The second episode was numbered and aired on January 29. In both episodes, Brian's and Alison's avatars were shown on screen and they were partially on top of the videos they were commenting on, but in the second episode, the avatars were larger and there was no Badger-like "frame" around the actual footage. In episode 5, where Brian had a different (more "scary-looking") avatar than usual, Alison called the show "Honey Badger Bite" (instead of just "Badger Bite").

In the first three streams they had their cameras on with no avatars on screen, while in the last stream, which was a fundraiser, they had their cameras off and their avatars shown. In the first of these streams, Alison noted that the political left and the right are similar ideologically, they both think that society is at war with women. The difference is that the right thinks women are oppressed in every other society except modern western ones, while the left thinks women are oppressed everywhere but particularly in the west. The name of the series were slightly different in all four streams: the first one was Community Cozy Coffy Comfy Stream[2], the second was Community Cozy Stream[3], the third was Community Cozy[4] and the last one was Community Cozy Fundraiser[5].

Men's Mental Health shows feature Prim Reaper and often start with an opening monologue made by her.

Nerdcast

Nerdcast used to be a show where Brian and Mike J discuss "the week(s) in geek".[8][9][10][11] On a stream in November 2018 Brian described previous streams as "not having anything really to do with men's issues at all."[12] The name of this show in the first episode was BadgerPodNerdCast, which was spelled as two words (BadgerPod NerdCast) up until episode 56, after which the name of the show was changed to Nerdcast. After episode 78, the show was moved from the HoneyBadgerRadio channel to Badger Live Streams and the episodes became unnumbered and their style changed to the current one, although they could feature other people alongside Brian and Mike J. In the old times, (BadgerPod) Nerdcast featured a wide range of Badgers, including a currently inactive badger Rachel Edwards[13]. In September 2022, Nerdcast came back, featuring Brian and Mike J, with this episode which was numbered 1.

Rage

Rage[14][15] (or Ragening[16]) is a show on the HoneyBadgerRadio channel, where Alison and Mike (Doctor Randomercam) respond to media items by other people[16]. In these episodes, Mike and Alison have their cameras on and their avatars are not shown.

Rantzerker

Rantzerkers are responses to media items made by others. These segments are long, usually over two hours. Alison and Brian are normally present in these. Occasionally these go by the name Fundzerker, which means that the Badgers are doing a fundraiser while making a response to someone else's media item. Other names that have been used for these are Rant[17][18] and Dogezerker[19]. However, Lulzerker, while ending in -zerker, is not a name for Rantzerkers as the only Lulzerker so far (as of August 1, 2021) was published between Rantzerker episodes 127 and 128[20][21][22]. There have been two Rantzerker episodes number 143, the first one by Brian, Alison and Karen and the second by Brian, Alison and TL;DR.

In that show Natty didn't have a well-established avatar yet and Brian said that Natty is going to go as the Badgers' "British Badger Queen". Thus her avatar was a queen-like character with a white forehead and the rest of her skin red[40]. After that, she got an avatar which is a pair of characters, a mother Badger (mostly red skin, the area upwards from her nose and the middle of the forehead white) holding a baby Badger in her arms; that baby Badger holding a Rubik's cube in its hands.[41][42] Natty also did an interview with an incel on the Badger Live Streams channel and in the video descriptions she was described as "British Badger Belle Natty"[43][44].

Disappearance of Badger Live Streams videos

On April 14, 2022 all videos of the Badger Live Streams channel disappeared. After that, the next stream (HBR Talk 220) was shown on Twitter and Rumble. In the next stream (Twitter) at 7:06 Alison explained something about the disappearance of Badger Live Streams videos on YouTube. According to Alison, YouTube made "a very interesting determination on content that it deemed to be nudity and sexuality for the sake of gratification", the videoclip in question being "a bunch of men's issues advocates sharing a cliop of a man being groped in public and condemning it" which YouTube deemed to have been shared not to raise awareness of the issue of men being sexually assaulted but rather to offer sexual gratification to people. Some videos became later publicly available again, and as of April 28, 2022, there were 16 public videos on the Badger Live Streams YouTube channel. Since then, a lot more videos have come back, but not all.
