I suspect that either TheCookedFoodWorldtvShow was jealous of your videos and complained or the wild & feral Daniel Vitalis prowled out of the forest last night (it was a blue moon on New Year's Eve, you know) and chewed the specific electrical wires connecting your videos to YouTube. I hope everything gets cleared up lickety split! Happy New Year!

Barbie said...

I freaked when I saw your account suspended. I knew that you posted on your blog too, but I freaked for a second. Hope it all works out. Maybe you need some disclaimer if your titles of curing things with raw food is the problem. Happy New Year!

That is crazy...

Mike Ross said...

Codex Alimentarious went into effect Dec. 31 2009, and your account goes off the same time, Hmm.
Angela for your bumps on your scalp, I would suggest the dry/steam sauna, where you build up to 6 hours in one day, adding a half hour a day, that can bring out sunburns, x-rays, tar from cigarettes, and toxins. and if you could combine that with the IR sauna and Hyperbaric chamber, or Ozone sauna, that would be nice. Because 6 hours can be rough.

Matt - so sorry to hear about this. Found the following online - might be helpful for you in recovering your content.

Sorry to hear about your troubles with YouTube. However, if you have lost any of your videos and would like to re-download them, they are still on YouTube's server.

Example:
Here is your video on Gmail Canned Responses Increase

Banned: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cscje9LJUjw
Available: http://www.youtube.com/v/Cscje9LJUjw

You just do a little presto-chango on the URL and they're there.

I found this little tip on another blog (not related to me) at: http://www.reelseo.com/watch-banned-blocked-youtube-videos/

I hope that helps and you can get your account back.

Kate Quinn said...

I agree, that is crazy! Have you checked the email account that YouTube is linked to? You can fill out this form to get any notices re-sent to you: http://help.youtube.com/support/youtube/bin/request.py?contact_type=accountdisabled

Dawna Rockey said...

Could it possibly be because you had the word breastfeeding in a previous title? Crazy if that's the reason though. So sorry for you. What a pain!

Anonymous said...

I was so sad to see the site was gone! I wonder if it might have to do with your "super deal" videos, where you showcase products?

Regardless, I'm approaching one month 60% raw and have you two to thank for it. You are a blessing, and I will be following you guys wherever you wind up posting!

Good luck!
Kate

Megan Levitt Raj said...

That totally bites that they banned you from You Tube. Don't react until you get a sane answer as to the reasoning. I'd want to know the policies required to be met by people posting You Tube Videos. If you're using it for financial gain, is there a limit to the number of videos you can post? That's my gut reaction, but again, it's best not to jump to conclusions until you know for certain. I hope someone who is level headed can get back to you in a timely manner. Good luck, and don't be sad! This is just a bump in the road...

Unknown said...

I hope you guys get things worked out with youtube. But I was very happy to find you here, still posting your videos.
Good luck guys and Happy New Year!

Matt, congratulations on being in second place in the Best Raw Outreach of 2009. The more 'famous' you become, the more people (all people, not just raw friends) will be reading you. Drs. T. Colin Campbell (Cornell) and Caldwell Esselstyn (Cleveland Clinic) are so successful with reversing and curing heart disease and cancer with a plant-based diet that they are not 'allowed' to doctor Joe Innocent who walks into the clinics there. Joe gets the triple bypass surgeries and drugs. Only the sr. doctors and trustees can learn Campbell & Esselstyn's drug and operation free protocols. Is there a coincidence? They say that we need to become revolutionaries in order to allow things that work to be given to the common persons. Dr. Flora at www.rawdoctors.com.

Ruby Rosemary said...

So totally silly. Just search Doctor Diane and her Cannabis infused olive oil that she refers to as "medicine" on youtube. The people in that video look so unhealthy. Keep me away from their "cure" please. I'll stick with you folks living in the City of Light!

i would think there is loads more radical stuff on utube than yours and how can porn and vilence and other offensive stuff be on there..utube is full of it and yet ban this..love helen f

Pamela Melcher said...

Congratulations on your honors in the Best of Raw!!! You are CLEARLY doing a LOT of good!

I am so sorry to hear that you were banned from YouTube.....

Indeed, you are not a victim.

I have been around the sun many times, and in my experience, EVERYTHING which appears adverse can be met and transformed into something even better.

Let's all envision the very highest, most accessible way that this information can be presented. And upspiral the whole thing.

For sure find out from them why they did that.

I heard that Codex Alimentarius did not go into effect on Dec 31,2010.

Fear is a very low vibrational energy. Low vibration slows manifestation. Let's not go there.

Probably a disclaimer would be a good idea.

I encourage you to continue to be controversial. That is why I am interested in what you say and do.

The leading edge truth is, to me, always the most interesting place to be.

There is always a way for the truth to be published.

For sure there must be a way to access the vids. I think it would be a good idea to figure out a way to store them which you have control over.

Happiness, Health, Peace and Abundance for All!

Many Blessings,
Pamela

I am sure it was a BIG mistake. What a terrible mistake it was. I am sending you positive light and love that your videos will be back up and running. I know all your viewers will ban together if needed. We love and support you both.

OUTRAGEOUS!!! What happened to free speech? I think you have "them" running scared, Matt. I really do think that they targeted you because of the TRUTH that you give us. Keep on keeping on... We're behind you 100%

aw, I'm so upset that they deleted the videos. I hope they will restore your account and figure out a way to restore those videos. Your videos are so educational and so fun and so valuable.

I was looking all over! I couldn't believe that I couldn't find the show! But then I remembered to check the blog. Hope you get it all straightened out. I look forward to watching every day!

Viveca Park, Personal Trainer said...

Sounds like a mix up and that you'll be vindicated and back on YouTube soon--I sure hope so!

I didn't hear the part about bumps on Angela's scalp, but that has happened twice in my life and took months to get rid of. It was from botanicals in the shampoo I used. The most recent time, it took 1 1/2 bottles of using the shampoo before the bumps appeared. It makes it hard to find a really natural shampoo without botanicals.

Coleen said...

I am glad that you and Angela are still uploading videos. Your show is the one thing that my kids (10, 6 and 18mths) and I love to watch together. We were sad though when we went back to watch older episodes that they were gone. As a family we just discovered your show a few months ago and we enjoy them so much that we went back to the beginning of your youtube account (we were just about to start watching your wedding videos).
Matt and Angela you are an inspiration to us and are wonderful role models. You both make being healthy cool to my children and I appreciate that very much.
Lots of Love and Big Hugs From All of Us to Both of You

I have two questions; Can you make kiefer with mature cocnut water (that's all I have access to)?
And Do you have an archive of all the old vids? Did you save them anywhere else???

tria said...

Wow, Matt that's crazy!!!! I think you're dead on with the reason. I can't think on any other reason why they would do that. We'll, just want to wish you guysa "Happy New Year". Everything will work itself out in the end. You guys take care!!

Anonymous said...

Happy New Year M&A!!!
Regarding the issue with you YouTube I speculate that someone is reporting you as "abuse" on and on again. The same thing happened with your blog over the last couple of months; fortunately it go resolved because I really enjoy your blog and videos.
There is pornographic/weird stuff on YouTube and Blogspot that in my opinion should get banned but it is there, so I don't think it is the health information you put on.
Hopefully they will review and see that all is OK; otherwise we should put on a petition to get you back on!!!
Love,
Alicia

John P said...

maybe someone who cut off a finger opening a coconut got you banned from youtube

Anonymous said...

I soooo sorry you guys :(

Megan Levitt Raj said...

Hi again,

After I read Pamela's comment above about using a disclaimer, a big bell went off. Yes, that has to be it. Now this is still speculation until it is confirmed, but I know there are rules about not practicing medicine without a license, and of course even though all of us fans of raw foods do believe it can cure any disease, I do believe you have to use a disclaimer about that. So if there was any rational reason for banning you, that could be one, and I'll go with that as my best guess for those meanies banning you. No need to say what you're not, e.g. "not a victim". You are nothing but a success and inspiration, both you and Angela, to thousands of people. Love you guys.

TheCraftyVegan said...

I would be willing to bet that someone complained about your breastfeeding episode. Come on, we are not supposed to remember that breasts are for feeding children. I love you guys and am glad you found another way to post a video . Whatever happens you should be allowed access to all the old videos to bring them to another video site if that's what you have to do.

Necrowitch said...

i think you got banned because of an innocent copy right infringement. if it is that, i believe you can get your account back... it just takes time. when you get banned they close all your accounts as they have a rule about that. you make alot of posts on alot of products, books, and other materials. I'm sure it is that and not for being any type of youtube abusive. hope you get your account back soon! =^-^=

Necrowitch said...

forgot to say. I was busy for the new years holiday and didn't get to watch the last 5 videos you uploaded... maybe you could upload those on here too? o_o

Anonymous said...

Wow, that's crazy that you folks were banned!!!! I may not agree with everything you say or do but I do enjoy many of your videos and look forward to going to your channel. I really do hope that someone fixes this problem lickity split!

I was looking for you guys last night to see what book Michelle made her soup from and to see if she posted that yummy cookie dough recipe. I almost started crying (don't laugh) because I thought I was banned. lol. I never did anything wrong, I just NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS think you guys would be banned. I looked for you and I found you, so just keep doing your thing and your fans will find you. But I hope to see you on YouTube soon.

Hi Angela and Matt!

I have left my questions on youtube with the last video of Raw Reform and I am leaving them here as well.

Could you, please, express your thoughts and ideas on Codex Alimentarius and the fact that it went into global implementation on the December 31, 2009.

What are we going to do about it? (Especially considering the fact, that we have already let it go that far, although it could have been stopped!..

Wow, what a shock to find you had vanished from YouTube today when I went looking for your latest video! I hope this is simply a glitch or some kind of misunderstanding that will be rectified quickly and with an adequate explanation. It makes no sense that your channel and videos would be intentionally banned. Your videos are informative, fun, and inspiring.

To Ruby Rosemary,
Cannabis can be made into a pure THC oil, that can cure all cancers,(stage 4 even!)Visit phoenixtears.ca to learn how to make it, and watch the movie. In combination with this lifestyle there's no stopping us. Doctor Diane's CBD infused olive oil was a pain releiving oil, and those people looked sick, probobly because they are legaly declared sick and able to possess cannabis to treat any number of symptoms from CANCER, Glaucoma, HIV or AIDS, Alzheimer's Disease, Cachexia, Severe pain, Severe nausea, Seizures-epilepsy, Spasms and is known to reverse Multiple Sclerosis. You have THC receptors on every cell of your body, this plant is amasing at helping to bring your body back to homeostasis. In Dianes' video I would save the water, which David Wolfe would tell you is high in Silicon.

Very disappointed in YouTube. What were they thinking? Hope it all works out.

Youtube has gotten into the business of censorship. This is dangerous because the internet is our last true place of freedom.

i am guessing that youtube banned you because if you are receiving 1,000 hits+ A DAY, EVERYDAY - this is costing bandwidth and money, especially since youtube is owned by google (also blogger and many things) . . . we need to truly question the realities of public and 'free' spaces on the internet as well as censorship . . . happy new year! love you guys so much ! ! ! yum raw food love world ! ! xx

Awe this is SHOCKING. but its just cus i guess you guys were helping so many people. I wouldn't have just spent like 100 on supplements and raw food stuff if it weren't for you two getting me into this.
I'm suprised anti-gvmt videos are still there and yet you guys are booted.
Hope your video's can be salvaged, or that you have copies?
hope to see you guys on the next video site :P
Happy 2010

I am really sorry to hear this but know that God has even better things in store for you two. You both have hearts to help and that will continue to get recognized by those who love and support you. Thank you both for all that you do and all that you are, beautiful!

Strange how this happened after Best of Raw. I wonder if that had anything to do with it?

This new year has even better things in store for you both. Embrace. In God's Love, Johnny

Cassie said...

I think you were banned because you had a three part series on how to get off a pharmaceutical medication ;). Not to sound all big brother, but Big Pharma has a hand in most large media outlets, even You-Tube. Don't let it get you down! Just means you are breaking through to the masses in a way that could be threatening to certain organizations. Keep shining your light you two!!

peaceful mama said...

I agree with necrowitch--I second can you please post your last 5 videos? I'm working on manifesting a trip to Tree of Life this year and I'm using your videos there for visualizion :) also of course I just love watching your show every day. I Love you guys!!!

Anonymous said...

that's just crazy...doesn't surprise me though. I'm sure big Pharma had something to do with it since you tell the truth about healing. I hope enough people make a stink about it that you can get back on.

veganreikiangel said...

Well...sad to hear about your youtube troubles....Im guessing the reason is, because you also use it as a marketing tool.....and post info about your products/sales etc...that may be a violation of TOS...tho i dont know for sure....
But...with some hope....you'll be fully restored soon!

PLEEEESE let us know if you can get your shows back and on another site in an archive so that we can access them! Your shows are in my opinion the best out there and I look forward everyday to them. I hope and pray you can either get them back on YouTube or get the archive posted elsewhere so I and others can catch up xx

i thought we lived in a free world, free speech, etc.,. etc.,. but i have to tell you we dont! Matt.....best you watch out what you say.....the ama, ftc, fda, all of them have a powerful grip on what we can and cannot say to millions of potential people. you need to hire an attorney to find out what is legal to say, and what is not legal to say so you can continue your beautiful message with angela and your team. without knowing the law, you will suffer at their hands! And that would be a travesty. Good luck and pls. take this as a serious wake up all. Hope you are both well. Best to you both, jay Kordich

Can't believe you are (hopefully temporarily) banned on youtube. What is the world coming to! I just found you a couple of weeks ago and haven't finished watching all your past vids yet! I have found them super-insightful, I hope they reappear soon. I just remembered you had a blog and found you tonight. Maybe you guys have moved beyond youtube! I know you will find a way to keep getting the word out on raw foods...thank you both so much for all your teachings and inspiration!!

Gaby said...

Hello Matt and Angela!! I really can't believe they did that! I want you to know that your work, help, and specially your friendship means A LOT to many of us! You have our support in this and I am sure that everything's going to be alright pretty soon :) I love you guys, and thank you so much for everything you do for us! Please let us know if you need anything. Hugs and Love!

BIG FAT hugs to you both.Firstly you are both selfless progressive pioneers, who have enriched my life by sharing your knowledge on raw food. Secondly, you have probably saved my life. The youtube thing is just a blip. I am juicing with Shazzie for ten days, so it's great that you are juice feasting too. peace and abundance x.

You know that everything happens for a reason and the reason will make itself apparent when the time is right for you guys to appreciate it. Every single step of your journey, perceived initially as good or bad, has brought you two to where you are right now, and I'm guessing that there is no place that you would rather be than where you are right now. Thank you for being and for the inspiration, and bliss, you have brought into my life :)

Dear Matt and Angela...

Isn't it sad how mediocrity attacks greatness? (Or rather, in this case, stupidity attacks greatness) It is very possible that big pharma is trying to keep your truths away from the masses...but we already know that nothing can stop the truth, because truth is love and it's all that exists.

You are a blessing in our lives...keep being the vessels of love and healing that you are!

Love and Light,

Hi Angela and Matt,
I had to go back to YouTube 3x and check to find you before I came to your blog and found that it was true...so I came to your blog, which I've been following since 2006...I can not believe what YT has done. For the last month I've been following you on YT and other RAW foodist to learn all I could for my health. You are both such a blessing to the world...please never stop videoing or blogging or moving forward no matter what...there are many following your leading...Even if YT does not put you back on...This is a great spiritually time for you to stretch your ministry to a higher level to those world seekers in a greater way then you ever have before. This is only a bump in the road to a greater future for you. Please post your wedding videos again.
Blessing to you both!
Love ya, Grace

Dear Friends, Earth Family and Cosmic Family,

The Shadowy Architects of Civilization continue to shut down sensible speech... first they eradicated indigenous culture (well, not all of it, there's like 3% native culture left), now it seems like they are eradicating sensible speech... amongst other things. When one speaks truth, especially about autonomy the machine gets very upset. How dare you remind people of their innate potential and that they can heal themselves.

Out of destruction comes creation. I say the raw foodies, and our TV Shows, ban together and make our own video server called RAWTUBE... and we just represent like the crazy mother-f-ers that we are!!!
Let's show the machine that when you bite one of us, we don't bite back, we just heal our wounds with Raw Food, spiritual understanding and an occasional sacred mushroom trip and then we move on. We tend to let karma deal with the rest.

Okay, sometimes we bite back... actually we run you through a juicer, we juice your ass, and then we do magical, alchemical processes to transform your gnarly essence from a trick-ass-busta to a creation of divine expression.

We can get everyone on RAWTUBE... and then we just have to go to one place to get all the latest and greatest Health Information. It's like what the New World Order is doing with Governments... Consolidation! Give the people what they want... give them RAWTUBE!! We could call it HealthTube... that seems more inclusive? I don't know? We can have a vote on what we call it... but you get what I'm say'n!

When that farm got shutdown in downtown Los Angeles, I forget what it was called, the families didn't give up... they didn't let the fact that the LAPD beat the shit out of them and destroy their sacred garden defeat them. The farmers bought farm land, from the money they had raised to try to save their garden and re-grew all of their crops. They now participate in farmers markets in downtown LA; bringing live, fresh, organic, indigenous, produce straight to the people.

We could always start our own internet too. There's plenty of awesome programmers that could whip us up our own internet... we could run it on Raw Magic, you know David Wolfe and Daniel Vitalis know someway we can hook that shit up. We could probably just plug our cables into mushrooms and they would figure out the rest... it wouldn't surprise me. Instead of my website being www.dustinkellogg.com it could be raw.dustinkelogg.raw.... booooyah!!!

This may be too radical for some, or maybe it's not radical enough. You decide. I'm out!

Peace

Wow you're banned from Youtube a SECOND TIME?!!! You must be doing somthing right. Bob Beck protocol maybe, I remember when it was highlighted on WEARECHANGE.com and seeing how taboo it was, doesn't seem any different than the Terminator legaly. It's pure bloody mafia tactics! Maybe you do deserve some compensation for the trouble they've caused you and your business.

juicedaddy.com said...

just hire a lawyer and find out what has happened. there has to be a reason, and once you find out the reason, re-vamp yourself without violating whatever rule it was! And if that bothers you, then re-create your message on another platform. Don't ever feel victimized....that's when you will lose!

Is it possible that they perceived some of your video's as an attempt to market products that you sell on your site? Love your philosophy, but boy...you sell products at twice the amount one can find them in the store.
