They have since not gone back to streaming
===Let's Plays===
During June of 2022 The Upchucks began posting cut down versions of streams into 20 to 40 minute videos released daily. The Upchucks plan to move forward with this as the primary focus on the channel. In July that year they announced they would be taking a break from uploads to build enough of a backlog to make the daily format sustainable. They would end up keeping that promise and upload daily lets plays all the way up to spring of 2023 where they had to stop uploading and remove most videos. They said that they would begin to reupload all completed Series weekly in the summer and begin uploading new content on there prior schedule again. Later they would claim that the videos were taken down due to false reports and they found the guy and took care of it. At The Moment, only Ape Escape 2, Bayonetta 2, Zack and Wiki, and Wario Land 4 have been reuploaded.

===The Grease Saga===
====The Grease Saga====
The Grease Saga is a video made by The Upchucks a year before the creation of the channel as a submission for DingDongVG's 3D Movie Maker Film Festival Spooktacular. Though it was not shown at the festival it is one of the more popular videos on the channel and one they talk in high regard about. It is a 6 minute short made in Microsoft 3D Movie Maker beginning as a retelling of a story that happened in Nedry's school where a friend ate Chicken Grease from his lunchbox, before the plot shifts to the friend becoming a monster, "The Obese Grease", and going on a rampage. The first 2 minutes of the movie start with "Al" (A fill in of Nedrys role) and his friend "Dan" pressuring there friend Maurice to eat the grease, Maurice then becomes the Obese Grease and begins a slaughter of Al and Dan's friends forcing them to go to The Magic Cat for help. After being given the advice to use Dawn Soap as it's "Tough on Grease" Al slays the Obese Grease. The movie ends in a rather odd way when Al asks for Dan to remind him what his last name of, then two Nick Toons characters are summoned to hold Al in place with the film ending with a close up of Al's Feet, Al's cries for Dan to stop, Dan's laugh, and a 3d movie maker rendition of the Robocop theme. 
====The Grease Saga 2: The Greasening====
In November of 2022 The Upchucks released a Sequel to The Grease Saga titled The Grease Saga 2: The Greasening. The plot takes place years after the original with the main characters Al and Dan Schneider being grown up. The Magic Cat is given a mission by his mentor, Master Yu, to gather the two and train them in order to stop the returned Obese Grease who survived as "Dawn is tough on Grease, but it only helps wash it down the drain" and plans to unleash the apocalyptic "Greasening" onto the world. Al learns the art of Soap Bending and Dan the "Cum-On-Foot Hariyama" Technique and later have to save Al's Mom by being murdered by Maurice's Greasy Gremlins in order to stall for time. Ultimately it is a futile attempt as there plan is foiled when the disguised Walter White is found out by the "Bitch Detector" and Julie uses the very same lunchbox the Obese Grease birthed from to try and kill Al, only for his mom to take the hit and die. At the climax, The Obese Grease challenges Dan Schneider, who he deems responsible for the birth of the Obese Grease, to a duel and Dan is able to come out on top. The Obese Grease is seemingly defeated and now stuck in a form called "Gibby" that he used earlier to fight Dan Schneider with his memories also being lost. Dan decides to use Gibby as a star in his new show, which his producer praises him for. The film end's with Master Yu summoning The Magic Cat, Al, and Walter White to prepare for a "Holiday threat" and Dan's producing walking away and muttering "Yeah... Fuck Santas Ass...". This is foreshadowing for a third sequel where Santa Claus plays a pivotal role, and is also likely a reference to a video The Upchucks have referred to regularly on there main content where a man dressed as Santa exposes himself and says the same quote the producer mutters as well as other naughty things. A soundtrack for Grease Saga 2 was released on December 31st, 2022, with all 3 songs from the video + a 4th Song titled "Go Go Go Go Upchucks" which is a parody of the Power Rangers theme.

==Controversy==
The Upchucks in there beginning would spam multiple Youtubers an act obnoxious, this resulted in them getting blocked by many Youtubers and some publicly calling out or "roasting" The Upchucks. While they've said they would tone down spamming going forward (Barring "when it'd be really really funny") they've burnt many bridges in the short period of spamming. This would of course be a lie an The Upchucks continue to spam to this very day, some might say charismatically. Notable Youtubers include MoistCr1tikal , Oneyplays, and Turkey Tom
