Kyle Forgeard

What happened to Kyle Forgeard? Is Nelk over?

Nothing has ended that we could source, as of October 2026. He still hosts the Full Send Podcast, and its feed has carried a new Nelk episode almost every week, most recently on October 15, 2026. What made 2026 loud: in January he ran 100 miles from Area 51 to Las Vegas to raise money for a veterans’ charity (Dexerto); from February, SteveWillDoIt aired a dispute with Nelk; on April 15 the podcast released an episode titled “Nelk Boys Break Silence Over BUYOUT Rumors,” and on July 1 one titled “Kyle Reveals Nelk’s First Movie.” On July 28, Raw Talk’s episode notes listed “The End Of NELK” among topics with Steiny. We have not verified what was said in those episodes, so we do not characterize them, and no sale has been announced.

What happened between Kyle Forgeard and SteveWillDoIt?

A public fallout in 2026, then a public olive branch. On February 11, 2026, SteveWillDoIt went on Raw Talk with Bradley Martyn in an episode billed as why he had distanced himself from Nelk. In that episode he said his problem was with people behind the scenes at the company rather than with Forgeard, and that he held no grudge against him. He came back on March 24 with Bob Menery for an episode titled “SteveWillDoIt Responds To NELK” (feed). On September 15, 2026 he posted a video titled “Dear Kyle Forgeard...”, in which he credits Forgeard with giving him his start and again says Forgeard was not his main problem. We have not found Forgeard’s own account of the dispute in a source we could check, and neither side has announced a formal exit.

What happened between Kyle Forgeard and Bob Menery?

A money dispute over the Full Send Podcast, which Menery co-hosted in its early days and left in June 2022. That October, Menery said publicly that Nelk owed him money for his work. Forgeard answered on Instagram, per Dexerto: “We don’t owe Bob Menery a cent.” He posted a contract showing a 50/50 revenue split, said the Full Send team booked most of the guests, and called Menery’s posts lies. It resurfaced in March 2026, when Menery joined SteveWillDoIt on Raw Talk for an episode whose title asked “Bob Menery Vs. Kyle?” (feed). Menery’s side is in his entry.

Who is Kyle Forgeard to Drake?

A friend and, lately, a collaborator, going by what is on the record. Drake donated to Forgeard’s 100-mile charity run in January 2026, and Forgeard thanked him on stream (Dexerto). Drake gave him a watch at his birthday party in Toronto in July 2026 (HotNewHipHop), and the Full Send Podcast covered the party in its July 17 episode. In August 2026 Forgeard appeared with Drake on the “20 vs 1” livestream (Billboard Canada), and later explained on Full Send how it was cast (HotNewHipHop).

Why is Kyle Forgeard famous?

For Nelk’s prank videos first, then for turning that audience into businesses. The prank catalog built the main Nelk channel, and Famous Birthdays names “Coke Prank on Cops” as its most viral video. In fall 2020 YouTube demonetized the channel after videos that defied COVID-19 protocols, and Forgeard told The New York Times that ad revenue had already been low because of the crude content, as summarized by The Hustle in July 2021. By then the money was in Full Send merch and Happy Dad, and the podcast, now about 2.2 million subscribers on YouTube, became his main stage.

How old is Kyle Forgeard?

He is 32. Famous Birthdays lists his birthday as July 12, 1994.

What is Kyle Forgeard’s real name? What is his full name?

Kyle Forgeard. It is the name he posts under on X and TikTok, and the name Famous Birthdays, Tubefilter and Dexerto use. No middle name has been published by him or by major press that we could find. Online he often goes simply by Kyle, including his Instagram handle, @kyle.

Where is Kyle Forgeard from?

Mississauga, Ontario, next to Toronto, per Famous Birthdays. Nelk’s YouTube channel still lists its location as Toronto, Canada, and its tagline is “We prank people sometimes.”

Where can I watch Kyle Forgeard?

Weekly on the Full Send Podcast, also in audio through its feed. Nelk’s videos are on the main NELK channel and the group streams on Kick at kick.com/nelkboys. His own accounts are Instagram @kyle, X @KyleForgeard and TikTok @kyleforgeard, whose bio says a clip account runs it.

What is Kyle Forgeard’s net worth? How much does he make?

He does not publish a number and neither do we.

What about Kyle Forgeard’s family, dating life, health or beliefs?

Not something we cover.

Who represents Kyle Forgeard?

No agent or manager is named on his public profiles that we could find. His shows run through SHOTS, the company behind Full Send, whose CEO John Shahidi announced its distribution deal with Cumulus in November 2025. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because people keep asking what happened between him, SteveWillDoIt and Bob Menery, and most of the answer is on the record. If that changes, this entry will say so.
