Kinda Funny is a digital media company specializing in video and podcast content centered around video gaming culture, movies, television, and comic books.

The company manages two main YouTube channels: the flagship channel delivers comedic programming such as Kinda Funny: The Animated Series along with its principal podcast, The Kinda Funny Podcast (previously known as The GameOverGreggy Show). Meanwhile, the Kinda Funny Games channel is dedicated to Let's Play videos and features the weekly podcast titled The Kinda Funny Gamescast. Since June 2017, they have also produced "Kinda Funny Games Daily," a daily live video game news podcast streamed on both YouTube and Twitch.

History

In 2013, former IGN editors Greg Miller and Colin Moriarty created The GameOverGreggy Show as a side endeavor following the success of Miller’s personal YouTube channel, GameOverGreggy. Later on, IGN colleagues Nick Scarpino and Tim Gettys joined the team. By late 2014, they initiated a Patreon campaign and rebranded their project as Kinda Funny, quickly raising $10,000 within a single day.

On January 5, 2015, the group departed from IGN to form an independent company, allowing them to cover gaming topics previously off-limits. Their funding model heavily relies on audience contributions via Patreon; before leaving IGN, they had secured $30,000 in support and gained an additional $10,000 on the announcement day. Shortly thereafter, their monthly Patreon income reached nearly $35,000 across two accounts. Industry analysts recognized this achievement as a significant example of fan-supported content monetization. The founders maintained freelance work for IGN even after their exit.

On March 30, 2016, Kinda Funny entered into a partnership with Rooster Teeth, joining the LetsPlay Network. This alliance broadened their exposure through LetsPlay's channel, increased merchandise distribution via Rooster Teeth’s online store, and enabled participation in LetsPlay-organized events.

Additionally, Kinda Funny contributed fresh material during one of GameSpot's stage presentations at the 2016 Electronic Entertainment Expo.

Colin Moriarty resigned from the company on March 13, 2017, following backlash over a tweet and citing creative disagreements with his co-founders.

In January 2019, Kinda Funny unveiled "Kinda Funny 4.0," which marked the conclusion of The Morning Show and introduced several new weekly series including Internet Explorerz, KF/AF, Screencast, Party Mode, and Debatable. They also refreshed their podcast offerings by retiring the longstanding GameOverGreggy Podcast in favor of launching The Kinda Funny Podcast. This relaunch was supported by a dedicated month-long Patreon fundraising campaign.
