A CHAT WITH: Jake Barber

Fresh off the back of a main episode appearance, Jake Barber
joins Duke at the Sporty for a chinwag about his time supporting
the Gas, his vlogging days and the difficulties of being cast
into the Rovers spotlight at such a young age.

Jake began vlogging as a passion project when he was just
fifteen. His videos became an internet smash and was a popular
face on the terraces.  As with any internet success though,
there are the downsides, and Jake talks about how he struggled to
deal with the negative comments that he received both online and
in person.

We also chat about Jakes vlogs being picked up by the club and
producing his vlogs for the club YouTube account.

Jake was a delight to chat with and his openness and honesty
should be held in high admiration.
