A series called What The Fact !? began in November 2012. - Unnecessary knowledge on MeatcakeTV, this format soon became the main component of the channel. In each of the videos, he presented 20 facts that are both funny, interesting and useless. In the outro of his What the Fact videos there was always a Wookiee , which became his mascot. A total of 59 episodes were uploaded, all of which had been viewed between 500,000 and 1.9 million times. Other YouTubers such as Ardy or Cengiz also appeared in some episodes . In June 2014, Taddl discontinued the series for the time being due to a lack of time, and finally made all videos on this channel private at the beginning of 2015.
