Get Maced: the ratings tank. A typical Nancy Mace episode has lost more than half its viewers since August
Nancy Mace's Get Maced show is still posting nightly, but the number that measures reach, per-episode views, has more than halved. A typical solo episode has fallen from a working median near 42,000 views in August to about 16,500 now, a drop of roughly 56 percent, with policy episodes bottoming out in the single-digit thousands.
Nancy Mace opens a recent Get Maced episode with a small, telling aside: "I hope you'll stick with me for the whole hour, but if you can't, that's okay." Increasingly, they can't. Her personal YouTube show keeps posting on a near-nightly cadence, but the metric that actually measures reach, the number of people who watch each episode, has more than halved since August.

The number that is cratering
We track Get Maced's per-episode viewership off Mace's own public YouTube channel, @NancyRMace. The clean way to read a show like this is the working median: the views a typical solo episode collects once it has matured, setting aside the still-climbing brand-new uploads and the sub-two-minute teaser clips. That median has fallen hard.
| A typical Get Maced episode | Working median views |
|---|---|
| Late August 2026 | ~42,000 |
| September 1, 2026 | ~37,909 |
| September 22, 2026 | ~16,500 |
That is a drop of roughly 56 percent in about three weeks. The number is robust either way you count the mid-September "session week," when Mace taped one long Monday master and cut it into nightly segments.
The floor is in the single-digit thousands
The collapse is clearest in her policy and commentary episodes, which now bottom out well below where solo episodes used to floor:
| Episode (Sept. 2026) | Views |
|---|---|
| "25 years later... remembering 9/11" (Sept. 11) | 6,170 |
| "The $5,000 Checks Have a Catch" (Sept. 16) | 7,516 |
| AI "Trojan Horse" cut (Sept.) | 4,172 |
| "The Lindsay Clancy Mistrial" (Sept. 8) | 10,037 |
To be fair to the record, it is not every video: a couple of true-crime and controversy hooks still spiked this month, a bodycam segment to 83,149 and a TMZ "dick pics" press clip to 79,344. That is the point. Reach is now topic-gated. Strip out the two or three viral hooks and the typical Get Maced episode, the kind she posts most nights, is landing in the teens of thousands or lower, less than half of what it drew a month earlier.

Reach that was rented from the seat
There is a floor these numbers are drifting toward, and it is visible in plain sight. Mace's official House channel, @RepNancyMace, the one attached to the office, posts videos that draw roughly 130 to 1,400 views apiece. Get Maced's early numbers ran orders of magnitude above that, powered by the amplification of a sitting member of Congress in a high-drama news cycle. As the per-episode views slide back toward the official-channel range, the read is straightforward: much of the reach was rented from the seat, and the rent is coming due. That is exactly the softening our Get Maced economics breakdown flagged would show up, and it is showing up now, on her own timeline.
Method and sources: per-episode figures are the public view counts on Mace's own channel as of September 22, 2026, read via the video pages and standard tooling; the "typical episode" figure is a working median over the mature solo and full-length episodes of September 8 to 20.

October 7, 2026 · Dispatch'I'm Sort Of, Kind Of Known for It': Nancy Mace Describes Her Own Altercation Record, Calls Cory Mills 'a Teetotal POS' on Air, and Recalls Telling Jasmine Crockett to 'Take It Outside'
On the October 1, 2026 episode of her Get Maced podcast, Nancy Mace told her audience, 'Full disclosure, I'm a politician. I have gotten into an altercation or two in my time. I'm sort of, kind of known for it. Watch this.' She then played House floor footage of herself from November 2025, when a clerk read her resolution to censure Rep. Cory Mills, and narrated it: 'I'm standing in the corner, staring down Cory Mills. I may have said a four-letter word or two, telling him how I really feel.' She called Mills 'a teetotal POS' and added, 'I'm also the one that told Jasmine Crockett to take it outside.' Every quote is verbatim from her video. The record behind each line, with sources, is below.
October 7, 2026 · Dispatch'It's Pedophilia. It's Grooming.': Nancy Mace Calls Texas Senate Candidate James Talarico a Groomer and 'Not a Christian,' on a Poll Number No Published Poll Shows
In her October 1, 2026 Get Maced episode, Rep. Nancy Mace spent about five minutes on James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas, over his record on transgender athletes in girls' sports. She said 'It's disgusting. It's pedophilia. It's grooming. And here's a so-called Christian running on it,' told viewers 'You should not vote for this guy,' and said that someone who 'doesn't protect women in private spaces where they're undressed isn't a Christian,' while also saying 'I'm not carrying the water for anyone in this race.' She opened the segment with 'Ken Paxton is now three points ahead of Talarico.' The Fox News poll taken September 24 to 28 had Talarico ahead, 51 to 49, and Maceopedia found no published poll with Paxton ahead by three. Every characterization of Talarico in this entry is hers. The site's own voice is confined to the poll number and the public record.

Thirty-five seconds into her Thursday, October 1, 2026 Get Maced stream, Nancy Mace said her YouTube channel had 'just hit our milestone' of 75,000 subscribers. Thirteen minutes and 57 seconds later, in the same stream, she said 'we have almost a hundred thousand, we're getting towards a hundred thousand on YouTube.' Maceopedia's tracker had the channel at 75,400 that day. Six days later YouTube's own public display read 77K. This entry puts the two lines, the clock, and the public count side by side.

October 7, 2026 · Dispatch'She Should Get the Firing Squad': Nancy Mace Asks the South Carolina Legislature to Write a Death Penalty for One Untried Woman, Then Offers the Firing Squad to Lindsay Clancy
Two minutes into her October 1, 2026 Get Maced episode, Rep. Nancy Mace says she is 'begging the state legislature to make one exception' to South Carolina's death penalty for a Spartanburg County woman who has been charged with attempted murder and has not been tried: 'She should get the firing squad. We have that here.' She then offers the state's firing squad to Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts defendant whose trial is pending, and to an unnamed Tennessee defendant. The U.S. Constitution bars a state from passing a bill of attainder or an ex post facto law, so a death penalty written for one named person, after the alleged act, is not something any legislature can enact. Every quote here is verbatim from her own upload, checked against the audio. The woman she names is charged, not convicted. Her children are not named. Maceopedia reaches no conclusion about any defendant and assigns Mace no motive; the words are hers.
October 6, 2026 · Dispatch'I Want You to Know It's Not Real': Nancy Mace Pulls Off Her Wig Topper on Camera and Says PTSD Has Cost Her About Half Her Hair
On the morning of October 4, 2026, Nancy Mace posted a three-minute video to her own YouTube channel titled 'Nancy Mace Reveals Her SECRET to Good Hair.' Seated in her Get Maced studio, she says the hair people have been complimenting is 'not real,' says she has lost 'about half my hair' and attributes that to PTSD, lists the peptides, vitamins, topicals, Rogaine and methylene blue she says she uses, and then, at about 1:38, unclips a human-hair 'wig topper' on camera, holds it up, and parts her remaining hair with both hands to show her scalp. She finishes the video without the topper on. Every quote below is verbatim from her video. Maceopedia takes no position on her health; this entry records what she said and showed, and sets it beside her earlier public posts about her hair.
