Alright let me grab a pencil and make some notes of how the pros are doing it. ✏️. (Genuinely this is one of my favourite booktube channels.)

The point about community is very true. I have been a pretty consistent reader since I was ten years old and despite being kind of young (29) and being an avid youtube viewer, i didn't discover booktube until just over a year ago. I didnt even consider that it would exist as I always felt pretty alone in my love of reading. None of my close friends read. I didnt meet very many people who read. But now I have discovered so many cool people who share my love of reading. And my reading has only increased since! Thank you for what you guys do -keep reading alive!

This is like a safe place to me, to hear people talking about books whit the enthusiasm that you talk about them is something so amazing. I'm a little bit new to this channel but you are by far my favourite book channel even if I haven't read most of the books that you read, but I still watch your videos (except the parts with the spoilers). You introduced me to red rising and to Brandon Sanderson. So I'm so thankful to you The four p's

Gents! Awesome video 👏 thanks so much for sharing. Started a book tube channel in March with a good friend and it’s been great so far - a lot of natural learning mistakes, especially with the AV stufffff, but we’re loving podcasting and talking plot, and using it as opportunity to hang out and talk about a shared passion. We’re working to ramp-up the production value, but for now we’re focused on having fun with it and honing in our style. I’ve been watching your channel for the last year and LOVE it. You guys are clearly passionate and have a solid dynamic. I look up to your channel and draw inspiration from you constantly. Thanks so much for all of the advice!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for the video, I’m not done with the video yet but because of you guys, John/Jakob from Talking Story, and the Chatting with Nutts episodes I have been wanting to start a channel. I don’t even really care about numbers but I really love the community. I also want to use it as a learning experience but again, thank you. Also, I really relate to the book discussions but I can’t even get people around me to read the books I love.

Absolutely love your channel. Really interesting video. If you're curious, I found your channel by seeing you guys featured in Matt's Book Review channel end of the year video where you mentioned the new red rising video. I thought you guys seemed awesome and wondered why I hadn't heard of you guys and subbed straight away. The rest is history 😋

@2ToRamble omg you're right...I think I must have confused it with the beanie or smth (because I remember the shipping being like, 13 usd - which makes sense for a piece of clothing to be shipped to my area). Omg if it's only 2 dollar shipping I'll definitely get some bookmarks soon!

As someone who has zero interest in creating their own channel, this video had no business being THIS interesting, but here we are, lol. I am curious... does it hurt your guys' analytics if I watch at 2x speed? Or if I pause a video halfway through and then watch the rest later? In any case, thank you both so much for creating this safe haven here. Your videos have dragged me through some rough times, and that means more to me than I can say. Keep rocking on ❤
@2ToRamble 3 күн бұрын
What a compliment, thanks so very much! I believe KZfaq counts that as watching half the length of the video since KZfaq tracks it in “real time” meaning however long someone is literally watching our video - so if watching at 2x speed it counts as half the full length video while 0.5 speed would count as twice the length of the video. So now youre obligated to watch us speak at 0.25 speed if youre a true supporter and you can watch us take 10 minutes to say “Weeeeellllllllcooooooooommmmeeeeee baaaaaaaaaaaack (Long pause, breath) Tooooooo anooooooth--(*cough break) eeeeerr epppiiiiisssoooooooodeeeee ooooffffffffff ttthhhheeeee tttwwwwwooooooooo ttoooooooo rrrraaaaammmmbbbbbllleeeeeeee ppppooooo…..

You can save the file to your own device or area of your choosing on top of having it on KZfaq, though not sure how “ownership” persay works there - definitely something to look into

They do - there’s a small share of the monthly membership premium that KZfaq gives to creators, which is to my knowledge not better or worse than any regular view coming from an ad.

It’s interesting how this kind of a video is possible. Of you do this kind of a video once you’re more established and have a somewhat following, then it tends to come off good. If you make this sort of video and you’re not that big then I think you come off bitter.
