So, yes, a great many times, authors will create a string of setups and payoffs to keep the readers hooked. That's what cliffhangers at the end of chapters are for, creating this dissonance in your mind that seeks a resolution and keeps you reading. In KZfaq videos, similar setups and payoffs occur. When you do this in the title or thumbnail, I believe it's called clickbait. Okay, so clickbait is a little different. That usually doesn't have the payoff you were expecting. I like both C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien's books, but I prefer Tolkien. No offense, Steve. So, let's see how you entice me to watch these videos.

[ND] I feel a slight bit of vindication having your agreement on the excellence of Tolkien's writing 😂. We definitely don't want click bait in or videos, or in our book for that matter. Except maybe it's okay if we just call it 'subverting expectations?' Either way, we want the excellence of our content to match or exceed the promises we make about it. And hopefully that excellence will be enough to entice you to continue watching!
