Nexus for $9.99 says, if anybody could be punished by the law for the murder right now, who do you think it should be? Also, I'll be counting the days to myself until a Mokalem Bembe video.

Yeah, I mean, the case for that seems by far the strongest.

Makes sense to me. Trash talks for $5. That's pretty cheap to get trash to talk. Oh, White Trash Panda here. I've been telling you for years to stop trying to please the algorithm, make the content you want to make, and the numbers will come in time.

It's kind of a yo-yo thing with that. Yeah. Sometimes that's the strategy that works. Sometimes you kind of have to do what the data points indicate.

Yeah, to give you context for some of, like, the actual back end of what we can see analytics-wise, and by what we can see, I mean the little bits and pieces YouTube gives us that then I have to take into Excel and actually make sense of. Yeah. Generally, for a good video, we will get anywhere between four to eight million impressions per video when things are going well.

We were there for a period of time. And then we did JonBenet, and then that dropped down to two, which was... 50% of our low end for impressions of normal. And, uh, the, the promotional level from YouTube was, I think at about 60 some percent when the normal is somewhere around like 80 to 85, 90 plus when it's really good. Uh, so 60 in relation to promotions from YouTube is really bad.

Uh, so 60 in relation to promotions from YouTube is really bad.

What that tells us on our end is because of the content of that video, specifically the JonBenet video, uh, they were not promoting it to people. And the vast majority of the people who watched it had to actively go search for it. And therefore the views and numbers were much lower based on the contracts that we have with sponsorships. We have to meet certain criteria, yada, yada, yada.

So like, it's not just that, you know, we can take the hit for, you know, a few videos because we're passionate about it. It's like, Theoretically, in a perfect world, we could. The problem is that, as Mattis has said, we have contractor employees that we have to pay. We have rent we have to pay for the studio. We have utilities. We have equipment fees.

We have our own independent lives we have to afford. But also, we have contractual agreements with sponsors that... that we have to guarantee them a certain amount of viewership, yada, yada, yada.

There are so many wheels turning that for as much as we'd love to be able to just say, doesn't matter, we're just going to do whatever we want to do and to hell with what the results are, we can do that to an extent. But the amount of people that rely on us to provide income...
