check out Steemit and D-tube. They're related, support video uploads and free speech. You can also monetize it as up-votes get you steem dollars which are a crypto currency. With your 600k fans you'd kill it there.

I think a lot of these other food review channels try to dumb down their reviews or shock their audience with some ignorant gimmick. You give quality reviews that I can trust. I don't know if companies try to bribe these popular review channels to give their products good reviews, but you seem like the least likely to ever sell out.

@roflamo11116 жыл бұрын
In all honesty, I made a few jokes here and there. Quietly, watching more and more of your content. I came to suddenly realize, the only reason I was making jokes is because I couldn't believe it for myself to see a reasonable human being, who is smart and has such a profound vocabulary and sense of mind. Whether you're playing this as a character, gimmick, you're a wonderful soul. You have such a bright, ongoing, and outgoing personality it's endless to say the least. You my friend will make it far in life, also one other thing I figure I should add to sum this up, are you the son of Gene Wilder? Your personality, gentle voice, and characteristics sure remind me of him.

You're a great variety of unique and interesting thoughts, expressions, and habits. I think comparing oneself to others can be somewhat helpful if it's used as an impetus to continue striving for a goal or trying to change a bad habit, etc. It can be constructive or destructive. I've felt that writer's block before--I couldn't really find any particular way to get myself over it, but I will say that the feeling does go away eventually. Hang in there! You'll come out of the doldrums soon, and we support you through them. I commend WRMI for pulling Bro Stair's broadcasts like that. I wish other stations would do the same. Hearing what the WBCQ owner thinks about the situation, I certainly don't blame you for discontinuing the WBCQ SW/TuneIn broadcast with them. Enjoyed your broadcast thoroughly! Thank you!
