Videos
Joey's videos are mostly vlog based but he also does tag videos and challenges with other YouTubers. Joey has an upcoming webseries called Storytellers. He has stated on twitter that the kickstarter made it halfway.

AwesomenessTV
Joey doesn't only work along side Meghan on Teen.com, he works with AwesomnessTV with JennxPenn & Lia Marie Johnson another amazing youtube channel where they do sketches to cheerleading programs. However, from the 1st July the channel will have there own slot on Nickelodeon!!

It'll air at 8 p.m. (ET/PT) Hosted by Daniella Monet from the program Victorious.

Kickstarter : Storytellers
STORYTELLERS is Skins meets Are You Afraid of the Dark? – the summer before they leave for college, a group of unlikely friends gathers around a campfire to tell scary stories, and what begins as joking fun grows steadily more frightening. As the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur, our group of storytellers ultimately discover more than they bargained for about their world...and each other.

Part coming-of-age story and part episodic horror series with plenty of light touches of comedy, STORYTELLERS plays with familiar tropes and archetypes in fresh, unexpected ways. Following a Skins-esque format, the series will have seven episodes, with each of the first six centering around a specific member of the group, leading up to a final episode bringing all of them—and their stories—together.

Joey created a page for people to donate money to make this project happen and people could get prizes when donating. Joey has been tweeting with his buddys Luke Conard about both of there KickStarted pagees because Luke started his page so on the 23rd of June 2013 Luke and Joey decided to do a live youtube video with Whitney and Catrific to try to get there compains up. For the video they kept setting goals for when they got to 100,000 or over they were going to prank call Shane Dawson who was actually watching the show. however during the call they had actually got over 118,000 which is 18,000 more than what they needed however people keep backing out of there money so this means joeys amount could possibly drop lower than 100,000 which makes the kickstarter not happen.

As July 10th, 2013 the kickstarter reached its goal and surpassed it by 40,000. overall the total is a little over $140,000. filming should start around late July or early August. However, Joey announced in a vlog on July 11th, 2013 that there were difficulties recieving all of the money from the Kickstarter, and the status of the project is now unclear.
