A non-exhaustive collection of lost media involving Jack or other Scalfaniverse figures. "Lost media" refers to any type of media that once existed, but has since become publicly unavailable.

Best Sauces pitch for Shark Tank

See also: West Texas Investors Club

In 2012, Jack made a pitch video for his line of sauce in hopes to be invited onto the ABC show Shark Tank. Jack claims the show's producers "loved" the pitch and scheduled Jack for filming in July, before delaying it to September and ultimately cancelling everything. In a blog post explaining what happened, Jack published the pitch video on Vimeo, which has since been deleted. Eventually, this same pitch video was picked up by the rival CNBC show West Texas Investors Club, which Jack infamously appeared in.[1]

80's Rogue Party

The 80's Rogue Party was an event held by Jack and Paul in 13 July 2012. Jack posted a number of promotional videos for the event on Vimeo, which have been since deleted.

YouNow/Periscope livestreams

From November 2012 to February 2013, Jack hosted a number of livestreams on a site called YouNow.[2][3] He later moved to Periscope up until May 2016, when he switched to Facebook Live as he got more viewers there.[4] All of the livestreams on YouNow and Periscope have since become lost.

Cooking With Jack Community

In February 2011, as part of the 100th Cooking with Jack Show episode, Jack launched a forum at CookingWithJack.net with the help of his German friend Andy. To encourage users to sign up, Jack held a week-long giveaway of merch and sauce to three winners.[5] There are no known archives of this forum, with the first capture of the URL at the Wayback Machine already showing it being changed to a blog.[6]

"Nicer Dicer Plus - As Seen On TV"

Sometime in early 2013, Jack reviewed the Nicer Dicer Plus kitchen gadget.[7][8] In June 2024, Jack complained that the video was removed by YouTube staff "two years ago",[9] supposedly as he cut himself during the video.[10] No archive is known to exist.

"CookingWithJack" Vidme

"CookingWithJack" was a troll account on Vidme owned by Kiwi Farms user "hats",[11] which was active from December 2015 to around 2017 when Vidme was shut down.[12] It was notable for a February 2016 video of "hats" having tricked Jack into an interview for "a high school project" before immediately confronting him for choking his son Garrett.[13][14] This video has since become lost, with "hats" being inactive on Kiwi Farms since January 2017, and the video has been confirmed to not be inside the Archive Team's Vidme archive.[15]

NewsChannel 5 Nashville appearance

In May 2016, Jack presented a "Lazy Man's Peach Cobbler" live for the Southern Woods and Waters program on NewsChannel 5 Nashville.[16] Jack included a quick clip from the broadcast on a Cooking with Jack video,[17] however the full segment has since become lost. Attempts at contacting the show staff for the clip have been unsuccessful.[18]

JOTG Mexico mission trip

In 2016, Jack participated in a mission trip to Mexico. The corresponding Jack on the Go was originally going to be a five-part series, however Jack aborted the idea due to the "lengthiness" of the trip, deleting the already-published first part and instead uploading a "final cut."[19] Some comments on the video rebuked Jack over his explanation, stating he actually deleted the first part from backlash over his constant complaining, which was removed from the "final cut." Jack denied this and insisted any backlash was instead from the mission being religious.[20] Regardless, the original cut has since become lost.

"Low Carb Red Lobster Biscuits"

A Cooking with Jack video from August 2018 making KETO-style Red Lobster biscuits was taken down in a copyright claim by Low Carb Yum LLC,[21][22] presumably due to the stolen thumbnail. No archive is known to exist.

Jimmy "Test Stream"

In 2020, Jimmy livestreamed himself on Facebook wandering aimlessly around Jack's mother-in-law Carolyn's messy house. The stream was discovered by Aunt Myrna's Parlour in March 2024.[24] Jimmy eventually deleted the stream, and a MEGA mirror was found to be also deleted, with its creator having since left the server.[25]

"Christmas 2024" livestream

Jack held a particularly disastrous livestream on 16 December 2023 that was deleted almost immediately upon completion.[27][28] The most infamous moment was a troll doxing Tammy's workplace CEVA Logistics, claiming she was being investigated for tax fraud, which particularly rattled Jack. Other highlights include Jack throwing white-knight TheWolfePit under the bus, Jack claiming Baldur's Gate 3 had "mixed reviews" (it didn't, they are overwhelmingly positive), and Jack defending Junior saying "nigga" in the background of a Cooking with Jack video.[29] No archive is known to exist.

Shaping Truth

Intro for Shaping Truth. The voiceover is provided by Charles.

Shaping Truth was a podcast run by Jack's brother Jim from August 2025 to January 2026. Jim largely treated the podcast as his therapy sessions, going into uncomfortable details about his life, plus a series confronting Jack for having banned stealth-troll Ken Blazek. Jim mysteriously deleted the channel around March 2026. Only one video is known to be archived,[30] and transcripts of the videos featuring Jack are available on FatFatGo.[31]
