Connor Marc Colquhoun (born 26 July 1996), known online as CDawgVA, is a Welsh YouTuber, voice actor and podcaster based in Tokyo. He is affiliated with the Kadokawa-backed agency GeeXPlus.

Career

Colquhoun created his YouTube channel CDawgVA in February 2014.[4] Colquhoun started voice acting in parallel to his YouTube career, doing mainly amateur work with a few paying gigs. When Colquhoun lived in London, he worked professionally doing corporate narrations and commercials.[5]

In November 2019 Colquhoun moved to Tokyo to begin working as an influencer for the Kadokawa-backed agency GeeXPlus.[6] The effort was to help promote/introduce anime and Japanese culture to the rest of the world through his content.[6] In February 2020, Colquhoun joined Joey Bizinger (The Anime Man) and Garnt Maneetapho (Gigguk) in creating and hosting a weekly podcast called Trash Taste, where they discuss anime, manga, otaku culture, and their experiences while living in Japan.[7][8] The first episode was released on 5 June 2020, all episodes are available on YouTube, Spotify, and iTunes.[9]

In both 2020 and 2021 Colquhoun was a presenter at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards.[10][11] In August 2020, Colquhoun participated in a livestreamed chess tournament called Tournament Arc, hosted by Chess.com for anime YouTubers.[12] In the finals, Colquhoun lost against fellow Trash Taste host Garnt Maneetapho.[13] In July 2021's sequel championship, Tournament Arc 2, Colquhoun finished in fourth place overall.[14]

On 29 August 2022 Colquhoun and Chris Broad participated in a 750 km (470 mi) 'cyclethon' across Hokkaido to raise funds for the Immune Deficiency Foundation. The cycle was streamed live on Twitch and was completed on 5 September 2022, raising over $310,000.[15] On 11 December 2022, Colquhoun participated in a surprise chess-slap match with Ludwig Ahgren at the Mogul Chessboxing Championship, held at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, United States.[16][17]

Videos

Many of Colquhoun's videos feature him cosplaying and role-playing, with roles ranging from hosts, butlers, pole dancers, and visual kei musicians.[18][19] His YouTube channel gained popularity due to his anime-related content, with his favorite being JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.[20]
