HasanAbi’s setup

The biggest political just-chatting stream on Twitch

Twitch’s dominant political commentary and reaction stream, live most of the day, most days. The documented core of his setup is the classic just-chatting chain: a broadcast dynamic mic on a boom and a mirrorless face cam. Much of the rest sits off camera and unconfirmed, so we list only what is sourced.
