I think he thought he already had amazing material. After all, online and in interviews, people just laugh when he talks about his sexual failures. It's been his gimmick early on and it works easier when you're around a group who has common ground. I was dabbling in standup for a bit. When talking to my comedian friends what worked better was talking about going door to door. Everyone can understand how awkward that is and how awkward it is when a JW comes to your door. As usual most things outside of the very narrow window of JW content he is going to have a hard time with because he has to think of someone other than himself.

I said this on twitter...but why did he feel he had to warn adults in a nightclub that his video content contained things about sex? Who in that audience is going to be shocked or offended? Lloyd is going to get a rude awakening that people in the real world simply don't care about the kooky sex things JWs control. It isn't shocking to them, and they don't get a rise out of that content unless it's extreme.
Even for his comedy he is taking the most laziest route possible. He told the oldest repeated jokes about Brits in the world. Made a dumb joke about the queen. Then for his final act he focused on (don't drop your pearls)... sex. Not even anything most in the audience could relate to. He also didn't think through asking people to look him up on youtube. When you start typing his name the second result is "Lloyd Evans scandal". -

By the way they are actively shadowbanning anyone even slightly critical of Lloyd.

He told the mods they would have trouble and they assured him they would be stomped out. The mod even made a comment that they couldn't believe it was still going on after so long.

Dude is going through a major mid-life crisis. He must be going for that Pete Davidson look. I can not wait for him to start wearing ridiculous clothes only a 20 year old could get away with. He is doing all of this in lame attempts to get laid. -

@LMSA and others. Has there been any effort to reach out to any elders who were there recently? I know there was some mystery poster claiming to have insider info but it felt a bit sketchy. With something so salacious and given Lloyd's notoriety you'd think the gossip would be on full blast all over the halls for years and just common knowledge.
That's my only skepticism about this. Though admittingly it does all add up. Specifically, an elder's daughter being chased after. I could 100% see that happening in a hall with essentially the same outcome. Sometimes though I think just as simple theories are plausible as well given his nature.
I could also see a situation where he got caught sexting. Thought he was being overly punished. So he worked through his Dad, it failed and suddenly realized he was too broke to do anything but move to Croatia. A loss like that would have been crushing on his ego so I could also see how that was the turning point in leaving. Once his ego started getting fed by other ex-jws that sealed it.

Well spoke to Ali privately about her interview with Llloyd. Def more there to the story though I promised not say much. So just fair warning we may not want to judge too harshly on it.

Well, Ali has stepped in it doing her interview with Lloyd. It's also interesting what Lloyd decided to use as his first clip as an intro to her. Her basically saying ex-jw's are too judgemental. Sad to see her used this way and allowing it.
