BBT Network

Klye Silkwood better known online as Billy Bob Tanley or BBT Network, is an American YouTuber who makes reaction videos on YouTube.
==Personal life==
Silkwood was born and raised in Frankville, Alabama. At some point in his early childhood, he met Lorenda Clinton/Otis and they quickly became best friends.
When he was in high school he met Barry, another close friend of his and fellow YouTuber. . Nothing is known about the rest of his family or education, only that he still lives with he's mom. He is a known alcoholic with his favorite beer being Budweiser, and which he has stated that he always has a ready supply of in his fridge. He is also (or at least used to be) an avid gamer and has done reviews of various video games. He grew up mainly with Nintendo and Sega games and is a big fan of other notable game franchises such as Final Fantasy and Resident Evil.
He is also a well-known wrestling fan particularly when it comes to the Attitude and Ruthless Aggression eras of WWE, but he couldn't really get into the PG and Indie Eras since according to him it doesn't have any real big talent (apart from old timers) and is much less edgy. He has a deep fond hatred of John Cena and Finn Balor, countless reasons which would be too long to list here.
As a reactor he is known for his brutal honesty and is not afraid to make his opinions loud and clear, whether positive or negative. He is usually calm and collected, but there can be particular videos or moments which visibly gets him into a hateful mood or make him bored out of his mind such as Caillou videos and music videos. In addition he is known for talking frequently and can also often be seen taking a few sips from his home brew beer.
==Channel==
Silkwood created his channel on July 13, 2015. He has garnered over 30k subscribers and 22 million views on his main channel. The vast majority of the content he produces nowadays consists of reaction videos, and according to the description of the channel, his videos are not for kids. He occasionally made YouTube Poop videos too. 
He also used to do various reviews and rants on movies, video games, wrestling, as well as other topics but has since fully devoted himself to making reaction videos.
== Website ==
He has his own personal website on Mightyveemedia.com which he created together with ThisBarry. Barry is the one who primarily manages the website and it is here that people can donate to request a video, buy merch, as well as keep up to date with everything BBT.

==YouTube Guideline Strikes==
YouTube has unjustifiably given Tanley's main channel two community guidelines strikes on two separate occasions not too far apart from each other and may be at risk of being deleted if he's not careful. Because of this he has moved all new reactions to his secondary channel "BBT Reacts" and in addition has also archived all of his videos on a secure hard drive. 
==Other Channels/Affiliates==
*BBT Reacts (Formerly B&B's Archives/Reality) is Silkwood's secondary channel which follows the same style and concept of the main channel. Before Barry's retirement, this whole channel's main purpose was for Tanley to react to videos. Roughly 6.8K videos videos were uploaded to this channel before deleting nearly all of them on May 31, 2023 due to receiving multiple community guidelines strikes and in fear of one more strike terminating the channel. The only video that remains is titled "NO MORE REACTIONS ON THIS CHANNEL!" that announces the channel's retirement and how Tanley has yet again moved to another channel. It has 15.2K+ subscribers.
*BBT The Beer King Reacts is Silkwood's third reaction channel where only reaction requests/videos that BBT finds boring or simply doesn't care about is uploaded. As the channel name also suggests he usually reacts to these videos while he's in a drunk state unlike BBT Reacts where he is sober more often than not.
*BBT Reaction Zone is Silkwood's newly created backup channel. It was made in response to his BBT Reacts channel receiving a community guidelines strike because of MeatCanyon's Space Jam Season video for supposedly showing nudity even though the only hint of nudity was Bugs Bunny's deformed nipples (who is a male). Unjustified as many other reactors who have reacted to that video such as Tyrone Magnus have been unaffected.
*Mountain Duke is silkwood's old, inactive YouTube account and now serves as a secondary backup channel.
*Hood Gang Network is George Something and Anonymous Something's channel that normally collabs and creates storylines with BBT. They are also great friends with Billy. 
*BDF Network is Billy Bob Tanley's original channel where he wears a mask and plays a character. This was his second channel on YouTube created on October 1, 2011 and eventually gave him a hardcore fanbase.
*Freakshow Universe is a channel where he uploads storylines with BDF and Hood Gang Network. 
*The Otis Show is Otis James Clinton's channel and is focused on live streams. 
*ThisBarry is Barry's main channel. Only a few videos/livestreams have been uploaded on this channel.

==Trivia==
*ThisBarry has since retired from doing anymore reactions, both solo and with Billy. He has not come out with a statement, so the reasons why are still unspecified, though it may be due to YouTube's current state.
