As it relates to your thumbnails, just want to thank you for not doing clickbait thumbnails. You always deliver on what the headlines says they are.

Brodie I've been following you since the channel 36 days!

[@lynnbyrd9819]

You are appreciated, Brodie! thanks for the good work!

[@chrisw443]

When you spend 20 years being a one take live tv personality you forget two things. Number one: How insanely talented you have to be to do that. Number two: That almost nobody can do it that well. Which is why I think your videos stand out. I will say every reporter/ talent I worked with would go "I don't have a TV voice". Then as soon as i cued them, THE TV VOICE ARRIVED. You have it too, its not bad but I can hear it come in at times. Its good dont change on me brodie! lol.

[@Bc232klm]

💯

[@brunsnick]

Fully produced video every day is absolutely BEAST MODE!

[@jerkytoo8184]

You definitely nail the polished look, but not overly polished, in your videos. Well produced, but still maintains the feel of someone informally sharing his thoughts. Keep up the good work.

[@archstanton6102]

As a new subscriber, one of the things i have noticed on this channel, is the comments section is less toxic than others. Just hope this continues as the channel grows.

[@scottNNJ]

Brodie, I commend you on your commitment to posting a video every day for as long as you have, and also for making it purposeful (not filler). I once hosted an online blog, and know how sometimes motivation and inspiration is high, but other times it’s hard to find. For you to do this, enthusiastically, and always on camera (not hiding behind a keyboard) is quite a feat.

[@paulmezzetta6905]

Thank you for your content and GO SHARKS!

[@teddbobb4672]

I’m a production guy for Hockey, Basketball, Soccer, and everything in between. I respect everything you do, I enjoy your content, it’s some of the best production quality content on KZbin. I Love these behind the scenes videos too, very insightful.

[@raymcgeorge5169]

You’re amazingly talented, thank you for the candor ⭐️

Finally, I've been waiting for a video like this one. A contact of mine describes the many sins of KZbin since cancerous Google bought it! 1. Have to drag videos up and down when editing a playlist rather than typing in a number to move it around. 2. Can't program when to start a video (example: start time is 4:00) and when to end it (example: end time is 19:00 minutes of a 30 minute video). 3. Making playlist description typing total hell now (and it's gotten worst with only 26 characters showing up on screen at a time) AND removing the ability to create paragraphs! 4. Removing the "set thumbnail" of video for the playlist option meaning you are stuck with the first video in the playlists thumbnail now! 5. Stupid war on ad-blockers instead of fixing the REAL problems. 6. Sidebar of many videos to the side of the comment boards to the point it becomes distracting AND hard to resist clicking on a eye catching video. Just as bad as the DailyMail! 7. Removing the ability to see what video got removed (before, it still showed the name of the removed video before changing it to either deleted or private video). 8. Can't edit in a small description of a video in your playlist anymore. 9. And the most cancerous thing of all, KZbin's FILTERS that NEVER specifies what needs to be changed! It just auto deletes the entire message that you just wasted many minutes you typed! When the XXX website, XNXX notifies what needs to be changed in a message, there is a problem. I'm sick and tired of wasting many hours of my life trying to figure out what needs to be changed myself! 10. Especially when friendly messages like this one: "That's a nice hat." get deleted for no reason! In fact, doing a test the other day, it takes 24 HOURS before a message starts showing up again!

[@LarryLease]

This is the one channel that i love to be a member of. Great content. I definitely know the challenges of doing YT. I have a few channels and wow its exhausting but fun.

[@brodiebrazil]

Appreciate that! it's a grind for sure.

[@NicholasWilliams-c4e]

I started following you when you were reporting on the potential Coyotes relocation. I appreciate your videos and will continue to tune in. Thanks for your work, Brodie!

[@1p4g]

Maybe do a video on athletes and social media, Lionel Messi is the most followed athlete, and its also interesting how little NFL players are followed verse Soccer and NBA worldwide, yet the NFL is sooooo popular in USA, but not so outside it,

[@thedoubleu1]

Ur doing great Brodie 👌🏼🔥🔥🔥 your Deff gonna get the traction in due time I’m sure fam 🫡🙏🏼👌🏼🔥🔥🔥🦈🏒🐘⚾️

[@leaveittobaker]

It's a great channel, Brodie. Try not to stress about the small stuff. I've learned that it's the creator and a little of the content. Some guys can lay in a hammock all day and toast a drink every 10 minutes and still keep the retention. I know a guy who still shoots on his smartphone and continues to grow. He's well over 1/2 mill now. His editing isn't top notch, but he's a very likable guy.

[@russelljones9847]

Thank you Brodie for this! My son will be attending college in Fall of 2025 and majoring in media studies with a focus on sports media. He’s already been accepted to Penn State, Seton Hall and other schools that have sports media programs. He’s waiting for a decision on Syracuse Robert Newhouse school of communications. Your outstanding videos are a source of information and inspiration for him. Thank you for efforts and they are much appreciated. 👍

[@LarryLease]

Congrats!

[@catherinebhicks]

Awesome. Must be so proud

[@wmw3629]

You do a phenomenal job. My favorite KZbin channel I’m so glad I found your channel and watch it everyday.

[@hanshintigersenglishnews]

One-take Jake is champ. Love it. You are a pro and I keep coming back because your content is incredible. Your delivery, too. Thanks, Brodie.

[@clintonstone324]

We love you Brodie! I live in Japan and I appreciate all your updates! Keep up the great work

[@ericwebb5967]

You’re a pros pro Brodie. I imagine starting out is tough; a whole lot of time learning the craft. Although you are dialed in, it’s obvious you are putting in a lot of time. I know you know it’s family first. Your loyal viewers have your back on that! 👍💪

[@GeraldBacon-si5mx]

To me your regular voice and personality are perfect for doing you-tube videos most of us wish we were as great at it as you Brody.You have a way to grab peoples attention.

[@ronaldweston4527]

Love your videos, and appreciate the behind the scenes glimpse in how you put them together. It’s definitely a craft!

[@jamesfergus594]

Jimmy from Chicago….Hi Brody…Great points!…..In a similar vane….I listen to some of these u-tube music artists trying to get a break…. …Some of their talent is incredible…but the work behind putting a cover song on u-tube is quite involved…..Brody…I am always impressed with your professionalism and calmness….You speak reality….people love that….Thanks!😊😊😊

[@NHLCrazy2007]

@BrodieBrazil You do amazing work, especially for someone doing it completely solo. I appreciate your content that much, it is atop my list of what I want to watch each and every day. Speaking of every day news, will you be posting a video on the latest development Craig Morgan reported yesterday?

[@TheStarHound]

Thank you, Brodie. You do make it look easy and I enjoy your channel. I am primarily a baseball fan. I have no connections with Oakland or the A's, but that story fascinates me especially. But I am enjoying all your content. Keep up the good work.

[@BrentSmithline]

Thanks for all your hard work....

[@johnny234511]

Love your content Brodie. If you upload less videos, I will watch them and still love your content!

[@NeverStopImproving421]

Yes! This video was great! Totally feel the pain of those things - especially the rambling (I do it in work emails myself!)… the desire to explain everything, fill in the details, hit the counterpoints, etc. I love your videos, but if there is one piece of constructive criticism to work on for 2025 (IMO) it’s this one. Thanks again Brodie, and good luck!

[@dancoccimiglio1775]

Great video and as a KZbin content creator I know exactly what you’re talking about. Love your content and channel. Keep up the great work!

[@robbyc408]

Always interesting to hear about youtube creation. Would be interesting to see a 2024 recap of what your most popular and unpopular videos/themes were.

[@moosebohunkus6892]

Hi Brodie.I agree that if I see a 10+ minute video (from anyone) it is discouraging. I don't want to sit through a 10 minute video. Suggest maybe you make those part 1 & part 2 for the next day. All the best!

[@DanielCurious]

You do a good job, Mr. Brazil. Thank you.

[@BobThompson-y9p]

One other thing that is difficult is figuring out how the search engines algorithms work. This is super difficult as the algorithms change sometimes every month.

[@jennyvega8]

great advise!!

[@katemoo9581]

I love your videos every day

[@jbarryclkrec]

Your style is what keeps us coming back. One Take Jake is way more natural!

[@nflmlbclassics]

Great video / very informative!

[@williamford9564]

I think this was a good idea because many people do not realize how much work this is. As you said, it is NOT easy.

[@Mtfarmboy24]

I enjoy your take on the behind the scene and business of sports. We don’t need an instant reaction video. Much prefer a quality video take your time.

[@ki2726]

Are you going to cover the new Coyotes situation with the Maricopa County Board Chairman Thomas Galvin saying he’s already spoken to Bettman about bringing back the Coyotes and that he’s already in the process of forming a committee to make that happen.

[@whoopswrongbutton3987]

Daily videos is what YT seems to like out of its creators but its such a grind to do that.

[@rebchi]

Bro - you can ramble all you want. To me it adds value. People who get bored will move on after 5-7 minutes regardless.The people who want the whole thing will stick around. It’s like the newer baseball extra innings rules that I’ll never support. If people want to check out after 9 innings, go for it. Leave the extra innings stuff for the true fanatics. As for the “Other Stuff”, don’t forget the Hair! 🤘

[@SidelineChatsWithRobAndTim]

Sounds like you’re on vacation 😂 keep up the great content

[@f8th4lyf2]

Oooo I’ve never been the first like anywhere. Yay and happy to be a member. 😊

[@stphinkle]

I wondered somethng Brodie. I noticed that you blog about Sports teams, sports news, and such, I wondered if you are a big sports fan as well.

[@realalbertan]

@BrodieBrazil the Flames local broadcasters in the 80s and 90s were pure homers. They even used the "Dynasty" word in 89. "How does a Flames fan spell dynasty? O - N - E "

[@dzitzels]

I have been thinking about making some of my own videos and this particular episode certainly served as a wake-up call. @BrodieBrazil, I know you are a broadcast professional and anytime you get a professional with a decent amount of experience behind them performing their craft - whatever that craft might be - it should look easy and you do make it look easy so kudos there. The other thing that you didn’t touch on for people like me who are thinking of making their own videos, cost is another thing. I’m not in broadcasting but I am in tech and the stuff you use to make your own studio (presumably at home) is not cheap - not if you want to do it right. And then there are all of the likes, subscribes, notifications, etc that you have to keep reminding people of to grow your channel and audience. It never ends.

[@tylerlucas5773]

i dont mind the longer vids on this channel

[@dallasolson4731]

A's and Rays to Japan for 2-3 years. That would be a cool video

[@martinarden9705]

I like natural Brodie's voice much more than broadcaster Brodie's voice. I hear broadcaster Brodie's voice and I think I'm about to be sold car insurance or something. So yes, please continue to use natural Brodie's voice.

[@jeremybasham6826]

Any luck on an Arizona hockey 2.0 video? News has come out they have put a committee together to explore, could be nothing but if you have any intel would love to hear about it!

[@joesmith8821]

Did you do an edit around 5 minute mark? When you said "one take Jake" there was a jump.

[@pgaven9396]

It's good you don't do the Quantity over quality. Flightlinemike for example used to put out quality videos but lately it's been all flipped as are other KZbinrs...it's been hit and miss with alot of miss lately.

[@JustMikeTV]

I wish I could do videos like "One Take Jake" but its not easy.

[@sjduges67]

I actually enjoy the longer videos. There may be a topic that needs 10, 15, 20 minutes to flush out. The longer videos would make my commute a lot more tolerable, too.

[@petedepledge519]

I enjoy longer videos.

[@SkepticalRaptor]

I hope you’re not on vacation when the Rays decide to move to Montreal/SLC/Nashville/East Podunk. 😂😂😂

[@davidsasse40]

It IS televising production.

[@nicholasciviero7289]

How are those shorts created?

[@Emancipatriot]

Why every day? Don’t overwork yourself

[@O.G.LIL-MAN]

Brodie...you may have to hire someone on the side at some point for editing and some research,..

[@ITS_ABOUT_HOCKEY]

It is DEFINITELY not easy lol.

[@SaintSpire]

Colin Cowherd wishes he had your skills on his ugly set of a podcast. Be true to thine own self and worry not about perceived targets based on YT stats changing your flow or personal philosophy. 1099 life aint easy on the nerves & its easy to get caught up in ones employers ‘rules’ to squeeze margins for extra (minimum) gains but it does maximize the the satisfaction of ones self standing.

[@AceAtheist86]

All you do for youtube is film and edit your own videos. whats so hard about that? lol
