I don't know. They sat and listened to him for a lot longer than I would.

I would have said, "oh shit, sorry I wasted your time. Yeah, give me the name of that friend of yours, and I'll call her."

trag might be interested.

I like that video and his frankness in discussing the experience and result but goddamn nothing about that movie looked or sounded good

"Editing is boring" fuck you I love editing.

Cool video, I like how he questions his own choices and motivations behind even making the movie

I think I'd like editing, but I'd probably spend forever trying out different things and not being able to make any decisions.

Editing is great. Trawling through the raw material is tiring but that rush of excitement you get when it triggers an idea for a new approach or a way to bring things together that you hadn't planned during the shoot is thrilling. Everything lights up.

This happens to me everyday.

They both really deserved it.

Is there someone like Philip DeFranco but a lot less obnoxious?

I like this. This guy collects military rations (old and new ones) and eats the food inside (unless there’s a risk of botulism or mood or something) and smokes the cigarettes and stuff.

I love that channel. Some of the modern European MREs look really good.

I've been watching this guy's channel a lot lately. He does travel videos in unusual places (mostly former soviet nations and India).

I watch this one a lot while working. Lots of basic but entertaining biographies of tons of people and they upload often...

I've probably watched more YouTube in the last four months than I ever thought possible. I'm up at odd hours of the morning feeding a baby and need something short and non-committal on the TV to keep me awake.

Here are a few of my favorite YouTubers. Sorry if you guys mentioned any of them already.

Sean Evans -- Practically a bonafide TV personality at this point. What a great interviewer. He and YouTube have done more for hot sauce than any Food Network show in the history of Food TV.

Marques Brownlee/MKBHD -- I'm drawn to tech reviewers and tutorials in the early morning hours and I don't know why. I don't speak the language too well, but MKBHD effortlessly weaves detail and specs into something digestible. I like learning new things, and tech (especially phone tech) evolves at such speed that MKBHD constantly has something to talk about.

Bill Moore -- This guy's setup and approach to hot sauce is just fantastic. He really, really gets into what makes a bottle of hot sauce scratch his itch. It cracks me up because it's just hot sauce, but you just know this guy lives and breathes peppers. It's refreshing to see someone so passionate with absolutely no pretense whatsoever.

Dan Bell -- Man, the dead mall series is a trip at 4am. Sometimes the narcotic hum of a walk through a dead mall with vaporwave playing in the background is exactly what me and the baby boy need to get back to sleep.

Safiya Nygaard -- Probably the most annoying/polarizing YouTuber on this list. She orders weird shit online and tries it out then reviews it. There's absolutely no educational value in this but it's fun anyway.

Simon Richardson/Daniel Lloyd -- All of the GCN guys are great (thanks bune), but these two especially seem like cool guys. Simon is usually interested in gear and how-to's with a penchant for retro frames, and Dan is usually ready with a lot of riding tips. I can watch a GCN video at 4am and immediately want to get on my bike and just ride.

This is who I was talking about here

Haha. Of course he is.

Canadians help out with the accent please. Alberta?

Quality Canadian cursing and inventing new words. Juicero breakdown is like 40 minutes but is a good intro. There is a chance that he has done a review of a power tool that you considered purchasing.

Because of my involvement in a bunch of different YouTube channels now in various capacities I've gotten real familiar with the ins and outs of running YouTube channels and making money with Adsense, channel memberships, Patreon and the like... but I sometimes think back to the days when YouTube was brand new and basically a repository for people to store and share their weird little home videos.
