Don’t be afraid to start

[@kloled2232]

your channel is great my guy

[@isajmody2344]

I like your Czech accent. It reminds me of my long past family that was from Western Poland. Don't change. We all need to learn to be more authentic. You be you.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂

[@JoleneMarie123]

I like how you sound. I like things not so perfect. In America, everyone expects things to be polished and perfect. That’s boring. I’d rather enjoy a channel as though I’m sitting across from someone having a casual conversation…not being judged on the quality of every word. And I enjoy your enthusiasm. Keep it up.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thanks 🙂

[@dansmith4077]

Thanks

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you, that's very kind of you ❤

[@marklaurenzi1609]

The Czech accent is charming, especially for making a channel about Slavic tradition and stories. Perhaps I am biased due to my beloved Prague, but that is the my take

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂

[@xlrouge]

From Spain: Gracias amigo, Díky kamaráde

[@shadowmaster160]

Love your videos!!!

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you, appreciate the love 🙂

[@mindbrain935]

Great thank you for your work! Always looking forward to your videos 🙌

[@askarufus7939]

Thank you for bringing the Slavic folk to the international public. The only reason nobody knows anything about our part of Europe is because we don't even try to sell it. I watched many english-speaking youtubers talking about Slavic mythology, Slavic word origins and history, and none of them seemed to truly understand what they were talking about, being "culture professors" and making mistakes that average babcia would laugh at. To understand, or to help others understand, we need to have a voice. You are the voice, and it's beautiful it's a voice with a Czech accent.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂 I very much agree with you that it's our own fault nobody knows anything about our culture. That's why I'm trying to change it at least in a small way.

[@Vattghern_]

This.... Slavic cultures are so underrepresented and in contemporary times, totally sidelined and butchered (looking at you Hollywood)

[@karolinakuc4783]

​@@Vattghern_Indeed. Slavic mythology is just as complex as Hindu. I guess it is too complex for them to understand

[@Vattghern_]

@@karolinakuc4783 Sadly it's much more simple and sinister, it's part of an overall social engineering campaign

[@mindbrain935]

I’ve been waiting so long for content like that without knowing it 😁

[@auronwatson2477]

I'm a newer sub, you reeled me in with the "How Netflix butchered The Witcher books" series. It annoyed me to see a piece of Slavic culture get desecrated like that, when it was our best shot to see something of our own, made with a big budget. But that same interest in Slavic culture is what made me sub to you, as your lore videos explore a niche that not many cover. Glad that you found your drive, and hope to see more of your work. We all have our insecurities, and they often do shackle us, buuut we do have the ability to overcome that, given time and effort. For what it's worth -- I also cringe at my accent whenever I hear a recording of my voice, but that's just how we Slavic folk sound, no point worrying about it tbh haha

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying the content 🙂 I will cover The Witcher more often this year.

[@Hero_Of_Old]

Weird timing. I've been going back and forth on wanting to make videos about Tolkien, but scared about getting hate. But I also want to do it haha

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Don't be afraid, go for it 😉 It will be fine, you'll see 🙂

[@Film_Sushi]

Bucket list. Go on, do it. :)

[@antonjohansson3819]

Overall the hatewatching videos on youtube has seen a rise. People want to know their anger and disappointment are justified. What made me stay was the Folklore Videos, they are truly something special.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying them 🙂

[@sephirothsoul999]

Started watching for your witcher analyses/folk lore. Love learning new stuff from your videos (and how things were originally in the books) and very much like to hear your accent and your general presentation that come being passionate and knowledgeable on the topic. 😁 Keep it up!

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thanks 🙂

[@northhugr]

Great video! Love the slavic folklore videos even more than the media analysis, although both are great!

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy the content 🙂

[@Film_Sushi]

Czech castles - it´d be a cool stuff, you know. Just saying. :)

[@FolkWalkCZ]

I still plan to go around Czech castles which have some local legend connected to it and talk about that 😉

[@Film_Sushi]

@@FolkWalkCZ Cool. :) We do love some bloody messy legends. :)

[@TakaD20]

I subscribed on 2nd January 2023 and enjoy how the channel has developed since. Godspeed in 2024!

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂

[@Vattghern_]

Keep up the good work man, we need more content like this 🤘

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂

[@HEKVT]

I wouldn't have known you've only been doing this a year, you sound very confident and natural via microphones, and I'm glad you've managed to find a formula that works for you, focusing on fantasy and history too. Hope you see continued success and I'll be continuing to tune in.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thanks 🙂

[@MythicMarkus]

hey man ,im croatian,and also have small channel.i wish i have comunity like u :(

[@FolkWalkCZ]

320 subs is great for two months of work. I still had around 30 subs at that point. Keep going 😉

[@MythicMarkus]

@@FolkWalkCZ thx man,i just wish i had more people commenting

[@FolkWalkCZ]

@@MythicMarkus Trust me, I know the feeling well. It's hard sometimes. Have patience and you'll get there 😉

[@MythicMarkus]

@@FolkWalkCZ thank you

[@slavic_bros]

Keep making videos! You have a good Czech accent!

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂

[@LeutnantJoker]

Haha, cringing at the sound of your own voice is something every KZbinr goes through hehe. You quickly get over it ;)

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Yeah, it's weird how our voice sounds completely different in our head and when you hear what it actually sounds like it's pretty bad 😃 But as you say, I got used to it eventually and just accepted it 🙂

[@mindbrain935]

So normal, Nobody cares as Long as the vids deliver value - what they do!

[@Wighafoc]

I have the same reservations about creating content. I always use the "I would do it, but..." excuse. I at least have one video on my channel so far, and plan on plan on making more. The only thing that gets in my way is I am 19 still living in my parents home, and have barely any privacy here. Seriously I can't even be on a phone call without someone barging into my room. I do think that you inspired me to start though, because I can tell how passionate you are with your content. I thought to myself that I have that kind of passion for medieval Germanic languages and folklore. Anyways, thanks for the great content bro, I always love watching your slavic folklore videos.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

I had the same problem for a while but then I moved out. You can still have the same problem with roommates though so I would recommend just finding the best time for recording and then you can edit it whenever. I know it feels a bit weird and awkward but you can also ask your family to give you some space when you're recording, they'll probably understand it. Just don't be afraid of what they might think about you. If that's a problem for you (as it was for me) you need to get over that. I would also recommend watching this guy. I've been watching him since like 2015 and he helped me a lot with understanding how content creation on KZbin works and also with changing my mindset for the better. I actually want to make a video about a short channel review he did for me several months back and what my plans are for the next year. So that will probably be in a video for the next week. kzbin.info/www/bejne/baiwq6Fqmbd_hpYsi=rtp53tnXWmMwKi64

[@Wighafoc]

@@FolkWalkCZ Yeah it’s something I’ve been working on is trying not to care what they might think. Thanks for the recommendation too, I’ll definitely watch that video.

[@marklaurenzi1609]

Concerning grammar, as an English language teacher, take comfort in this. Have you ever heard the mistakes native speakers can make? Ultra cringe! Especially when they have a poor vocabulary repertoire.

[@ParadoxiaGaming]

An inspiring journey, and a message that a lot of people need to hear. Me included. Thank you! As long as we have good intentions and that we want to make something for the right reasons, nothing should stop us. Especially not fear of judgement. Good luck with what is next!

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Thank you 🙂 Wish you the best with your channel 😉 I'm looking forward to your new videos.

[@travisstepon687]

Thank you for continuing with your videos! I found your channel specifically because I was looking for Czech Folklore. I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts, as someone who is so well versed in West Slavic lore, on Sapkowski’s Hussite Trilogy.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

I might do a video about it at some point 🙂

[@ZakJames]

Keep doing the folklore videos if you enjoy them. There's definitely an audience for them on KZbin that you'll tap into eventually. I think the algorithm is showing you to the 'hate on Netflix remakes' crowd right now, but you don't need to get sucked into that space.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

I'll definitely do more videos about The Witcher Netflix show because there's still a lot to talk about but I agree. I don't want to become just another anti-woke youtuber. I very much agree with Rageaholic when he says that we shouldn't just cry about the culture, we need to create it.

[@captainhurricane5705]

I would rather hear your real voice than some bot. Your English is fine, and your accent doesn't make any difference to your content, so stop worrying about that. There are a billion channels out there, and they are all dreaming of having a million subscribers. Such is life. Anyway, I find your channel interesting, so there you go. I can be very critical of KZbin videos, but does anyone really care what I think? Do you? As long as you have fun, that's the main thing.

[@-RedCloud]

Something that really sucks is spending so much time on a video and nobody watches it. I got lucky with a Witcher art style video, but it was one of the videos I put the least amount of effort into. The videos I put effort into barely get watched at all. Mood killer for sure.

[@FolkWalkCZ]

That's KZbin in a nutshell 😃

[@karolinakuc4783]

Może by tak ranking najstraszniejszych postaci z Bajki z Mchu i Paproci jakie spotkali Żwirek i Muchomorek?

[@FolkWalkCZ]

Never heard about that 😅 You would have to explain that to me 😉
