=== Alex Saga ===

[[Alex Novell]] begins filming a documentary on Mr. Based and Josh, culminating in an incident where Jason hit Alex in the face with a tripod. Both figures remain extremely controversial among the community.

During a livestream, Alex accompanied Based prior to the release of the documentary that was later revealed to be a hit piece. It remains unclear whether Alex had already intended the documentary to take that direction at the time of filming.

During the stream, Alex recorded Based at a shopping mall, where text-to-speech played the song ''"Erika."'' Based marched along to the music inside the mall, an action that reportedly made Alex visibly uncomfortable. Later in the stream, the two were seen sharing a joint. Based remarked that Alex did not know how to inhale properly.

=== Josh Studio Sessions ===

Jason pays for multiple studio sessions in order for Josh to record [[Music Career|music]].

=== ~~YouTube Ban and~~ Return to Kick ===

=== Return to Kick ===

Mr. Based moves back to Kick in October 2024.

=== Galaxy Gas Streams ===

On December 23, 2024, in a very controversial stream, Jason provided Josh with "Galaxy Gas", flavored nitrous oxide that had been trending earlier in the year.

=== Parti Deal ===

[[Jack Doherty]] sets Josh up with a deal on the streaming platform [[Parti]], which subsequently involved Jason streaming on there too.[[File:JasonJosh.jpg|thumb|"A divorced dad getting his disabled son one weekend a month, right before he drops him off at mom's."<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1iohzj6/a_divorced_dad_getting_his_disabled_son_one/</ref>]]

=== Arrested Live ===

Jason was arrested during a live stream on Parti; in an unexpected moment Jason expected Josh to get arrested, even laughing at the matter, until Jason was handcuffed.

=== Arrested Again ===

{{Quote|text=Not again... I have to feed your dog now|author=Josh's blunt reaction to Based getting arrested<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1jwg3nj/based_gets_arrested/</ref>}}

Jason was arrested once again at [[Durgy's Bar]] on April 10, 2025, presumably after a viewer or a [[Trolls|troll]] who was interacting with Josh and Based earlier during the stream, called police. Jason had a warrant out for his arrest, which was already suspected by the community due to him appearing to be paranoid.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1jkvgno/based_gotta_have_a_warrant/</ref><ref>https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/webcrim_attorney/Detail?which=charge&docketNumber=gwMYjZ/NbWlPZxTDuhP5pA==&countyId=wTDNnHf/UHIgYlsGmMChHQ==&docketId=5GABnfgrxvGFE3Xs4_PLUS_V0_PLUS_w==&docketDseq=T/O1YN_PLUS_BG65HkOeqEnpAkw==&defendantName=Itzler,+Jason&court=Kings+Criminal+Court&courtType=U&recordType=U&recordNum=</ref><ref>https://archive.ph/69jlY</ref>
