[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

Another great story. It takes a lot of strength to do what he’s doing!

[@epochstories]

Thank you very much :) yeah, especially when people keep passing by and no one stops to listen. But like he said, if he's connected with his own words, things get much easier

[@haddishgebremedhin8438]

Thank you Austin McConnell for showing us another great channel.

[@epochstories]

Thank you so much for believing in my work

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

I think he’s right about all his predictions.

[@epochstories]

I'm hopeful about it too :) I really like how he has such a great goal, but he's open for what the journey might give him and just enjoys it.

[@laurab3943]

wow. this is so meaningful. such amazing cinematography. i have no words

[@epochstories]

Again, thank you so much for the kind works and the support :)

[@ceasareduardo9663]

I don’t know if the individual who runs the EPOCH channel will see this. I don’t know if Ryan will see this. For that matter, I don’t know if anyone will see this, or anyone will care. But for what it is worth, for however much one quantifies the value of moving a stranger across the world, I was moved. I was touched. This was absolutely poignant and beautiful. Thank you.

[@epochstories]

Ceasar thank you so much for such beautiful words. I always make sure to read all the comments and reply. Comments like this are really important to me and they truly motivate me on to keep investing in this project. Thank you!

[@mintbrownieangelfish-6114]

Oh man, you are so creative! I love how you found a way to have a job out of something that's hard to have a job in. It's something to be proud of. Best of luck!

[@epochstories]

It's truly inspiring. And I love how he's just open for whatever opportunities arrive. Thank you for watching :)

[@NeedsMoreSubs]

Everyone coming over from Austin McConnell... welcome to an Amazing channel. You will absolutely love it here!

[@epochstories]

Needs More Subs, you've been supporting my content since very early. I cannot thank you enough for the belief you had in my videos. Thank you!

[@NeedsMoreSubs]

@@epochstories - You're very welcome. We encountered your channel on Reddit when there were about 100 subscribers and we've been trying to tell people about these amazing videos ever since. Congratulations on the Austin McConnell shout out. So glad these videos will have a much wider audience now.

[@epochstories]

@@NeedsMoreSubs again, thank you so much!

[@daudidaudi]

Yes I did come from Austin McConnell and I love this channel already. Subbed!

[@epochstories]

@@daudidaudi Thank you very much! I hope you enjoy future stories. New one coming up tomorrow :)

[@blakehohenhaus9045]

I’m an aspiring documentarian, and this is so inspiring; the story and the film. Watching this and then looking down to see only 900 views is so surreal. Can’t wait to see this channel grow!

[@epochstories]

Thank you very much Blake! I'm so happy my work has inspired you. Believe it or not, I had no prior experience with camera and I got one for the first time 9 months ago or something. If I can do it, I believe you can do much more :) Thank you for the amazing support

[@blakehohenhaus9045]

@@epochstories Ahh no way! You have a gift then, to create like work like this within a year of picking up a camera! Thank you for the kind words though, I can't wait to see more from your channel!

[@epochstories]

@@blakehohenhaus9045 thank you so much for the great compliment. In all honesty, I'm not a big believer in talent, but rather in passion and hard work. I'm no more than anyone else. So if I can do it, I truly believe anyone can do it too :) Best of luck and thank you once again

[@nathanbuford9263]

You need to create a patreon so we can support your videos

[@epochstories]

I actually already have a patreon account, but never shared because didn't think it was the time. I need to have a good think about how I want it to set it up tho. I'm up for suggestions too :)

[@nathanbuford9263]

@@epochstories well I hope you do soon!

[@epochstories]

Thank you!

[@SeahorseBloke]

I adore this

[@epochstories]

Thank you very much Tobi! That means a lot to me. There's a lot more videos to come up and a lot to improve still. At least once a month I release a new one :)

[@SeahorseBloke]

@@epochstories That's all right - I subscribed within the first few seconds, so I'll keep up with your releases. Hope you get your name out there.

[@epochstories]

[@radianzero]

Austin anyone?

[@epochstories]

It's unbelievable! Thank you!

[@radianzero]

@@epochstories You're welcome. I wish youtube put you in my reccomended before!

[@epochstories]

@@radianzero thank you so much! Hopefully now KZbin will start recommending a bit.

[@MichaelDavis-zf6nt]

I'm not subscribing because Austin said I should, he simply pointed the way. I enjoy documentaries so I watched a few and they are great so that's why I'm going to subscribe. Keep them coming.

[@epochstories]

This means a lot to me! I'm so happy that everyone came from the amazing support from Austin. But hopefully people will then stay for my work :) Thank you!

[@milanschouten6533]

Damn that’s some high quality content

[@epochstories]

Thank you so much!

[@BB.156]

Where do they find these amazing people? They are all unique and have there own fantastic story. Really beautiful what they do.

[@epochstories]

It's just me on the channel. I started the channel with a friend of mine, but as life progressed, we went through separate places and I took the project further with me (but me and my friend are still very good friends tho). I usually look on social media, newspaper, search online, collaborate with other people, get recommendations or just ask around. The more people I meet, the more people I get recommended :) And I also send A LOT of emails haha

[@natural_rainb0w159]

I met him in Leeds a few weeks ago when I stopped to tie my shoe lace and my earphones fell out. I stopped and listened and found my own truth within one of his poems. Lovely guy!

[@epochstories]

That's so nice. I'm sure he would really appreciate to know that :) thank you very much for watching

[@beezymark3926]

Glad I found this channel. Quality of content is amazing!

[@epochstories]

Thank you very much :) I hope I can keep pushing the quality further up

[@bitnev]

I`m a struggling poet myself and it was really moving. Thank you.

[@epochstories]

I hope this inspires you to keep moving forwards! Thank you for the support

[@leahosteen354]
