==YouTube history==
===Career===
Lucah joined YouTube on July 5, 2007, and her first videos "tested" the website. As the name implies, she tested video and audio recording in preparation for her gameplay videos.
Lucah began uploading "Let's Play" videos to YouTube on October 4th, 2008, and the first game she recorded alongside her commentary was "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon" from 1994, lasting for a series of six episodes.
Lucah became interested in pursuing gaming content due to the online postings of users ProtonJon (who would later become her husband), and DeceasedCrab. Shortly after, she began to post "Let's Draw" videos, but stopped posting this content in early 2010.
===Let's Plays===
Lucah posts a variety of LPs, including indie games, old DOS box games, Barbie games, and Nintendo games, even the entire King's Quest and Quest of Glory series.
She gained notoriety after posting her Barbie Horse Adventure series with co-star JoshJepson. Since then, she has featured numerous guests in co-operative Let's Plays, including YouTubers such as Donnabellez, AttackingTucans, and NintendoCapriSun.
Lucah gained popularity following two popular video game series; Phoenix Wright and Danganronpa. On July 25 of 2016, She started playing the Ace Attorney franchise for her channel, claiming that she has "been waiting forever to play this" She has subsequently become hooked on the franchise for it's colorful characters and murder mystery genre. Sha has completed the first 5 games in the franchise, and is currently playing the second spin-off Miles Edgeworth game (Ace Attorney Investigations 2), a character that she is quite fond of.
In April of 2018, she began Playing through the Danganronpa series, claiming that because so many of her fans suggested it to her because of the Phoenix Wright games. She has grown to love the series because of its quirky characters and dark, murder mystery tones, as well as the overall mystery that the games are focused around. However, the series' trademark action oriented trail sections, and more brutal and depressing tone has sometimes put her off, she seems to still enjoy the games a lot. Often siting characters like Byakuya Togami, Nagito Komeada and Kokichi Ouma for in jokes and memes during her playthroughs.
Her commentary style is relatively mature. Cursing is very common in her videos, and one of her reoccurring catch phrases is "Mah balls!" in reference to the name of her horse inside the Barbie Horse Adventure LP. (The other notable catch phrases are "Sir, SIR?" and the lesser-used "Madam?") Though not mature, Lucah tends to make jokes about Taco Bell, and for her 100,000 subscriber special ate a taco in front of the camera.
