Why did you want to really be a YouTuber? Because kids say that, but the extent to which you said it and the focus that you had on that particular goal of being a YouTuber, because there's many things you could have focused on.

You could have been a video game player or whatever, but YouTube is a particularly interesting thing because you're on camera, people are seeing it, there's a metric which decides how successful you are. Was there any element of the on-camera part that was... helping to solve for like the feeling of isolation that you seem to have at that time.

I think a lot of people can't understand someone being so relentlessly focused on something with the level of, like, commitment and sustained commitment that you've shown.

It would have had to have been a deep obsession because you were doing it when no one was really watching or paying attention or really when the platform was... There was literally a day when I was 19 or 20 where I woke up

Was there anything else that you showed that level of obsession to?

Consistent, hard problems. I want to talk about that and also Feastables, but you mentioned Crohn's disease there. A lot of people don't know what that is and the impact it has on someone's life. Are you aware of it? I am because I had a team member that had it.

So in order to help support them at certain times when they had to leave and stuff like that, I got a little bit more aware of what it means and how it impacts you. But could you give me your perspective on that?

And so you still wake up with some days where you don't have energy.

Which is really hard to believe for someone who's so productive for everybody looking on.

I observed in the team member that I had that had Crohn's just a bit of a mental roller coaster as well because there's a certain unpredictability to it. Exactly. Which makes life.
