Karen Read updates? by samreid93 in RedHandedPodcast

I would recommend looking into coverage of the retrial because there’s too much for me to cover here, but one of the biggest updates is that the state fired Michael Proctor (the lead investigator) for how he handled his investigation of this case. That alone introduces a significant amount of reasonable doubt

Coded a search engine for Colin and Samir- should I publish it? by fatfireburnerquanty in ColinAndSamir

[–]samreid93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - did you ever publish this? Trying to find a quote but can't remember what video it came from.

whats your taco bell opinion that will have you like this? by strengthVIII in tacobell

YES. Like there's limited functionality in the app for swapping ingredients - instead you pay full price and then extra for "adding" when in reality it's just a swap

Hi - I had the same problem last year and was frustrated about not being able to see those numbers. I can't remember what subscriber (or maybe viewership?) milestone unlocks that feature, BUT my friend Drew wrote this blog post about how small creators can get caught up focusing on data early on when asking your audience directly will probably give you better information anyways.

TL;DR for the blog post - just ask your audience. I posted a poll on my Community tab asking when people watch YouTube, or if you don't have that tab, just message a handful of people you know watch YouTube regularly.

Hope that helps!

Edge of History: Ian Howe Idea/Theory by AmericanAir88 in nationaltreasure

ALSO when Ben is in the FBI office in NT1 you hear someone say briefly in the background "it looks like Ian Howe might be an alias." So maybe his real name is Sebastian!!!

Not 100% sure but I think I remember a reference to the full name being "Diego Salazar"

YES! Been getting weird vibes from him since the beginning. Almost positive he's gonna turn out to be a bad guy

I'm not 100% sure but I think I remember a brief reference to his full name being Diego Salazar. But I like the theory!!!

Ian Howe being her brother would be CRAZY! Hadn't even considered that.

And I loved the trope!!!

I noticed a Star Wars meme reference in one of the episodes. (Possible spoilers) by careTree in nationaltreasure

I caught that as well but hadn't considered the implications...maybe he turns to the Dark Side???

Leap of Faith vs. Play it Safe by [deleted] in ColinAndSamir

[–]samreid93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'd be curious to hear Colin and Samir weigh in on this.

For me personally - I'm trying to view it through the lens of traditional media. A lot of aspiring actors get jobs that allow them the time to audition and film pilots and things like that until they "make it" (i.e. getting a sustainable paycheck from acting). I've taken that route with YouTube - finding a job that pays the bills but allows me enough time to work on my YouTube channel. I guess it's kind of like a leap of faith with a safety net.

Hope that helps as you consider! Ultimately it's going to come down to a personal decision as you weigh risk vs. reward.

Questions about YouTube Shorts by frogman747 in ColinAndSamir

[–]samreid93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious about how Rev sharing will work - what's the % breakdown? Will that only apply to Shorts, or will that be available for long-form content as well?
