@@LocalContentShow I work with third party companies to be able to monetize my normal videos, but I’ve never had a video be long enough to qualify for mid rolls before. I think if you don’t have to deal with copyright then you can control the ad placement, but since the third party has bypassed the system I don’t have control

Your yallternative music hits me in a place that's indescribable. I was born in Cleveland, lived there until I was 12. During those twelve years I went to warped tour and saw one of my favorite bands, Less than Jake. I know ska, but even still, it's the same ballpark. Cut to the summer before my 13th birthday, we moved to the middle of nowhere West Virginia. The culture, the music, the spirit got me. I love country, I love being a hillbilly, catfishing, deer hunting, going to community centers for bluegrass, finding morels, ramps, crawdads, all that fun stuff. But the entire time I held on to my love of the music I had my childhood with. I joined the Marines and meshed with about every American culture and grew to love them all, but at the end of the day I'll still be the hillbilly who identifies as a yallternative guy. Thank you for putting a name to it. I hope it catches on. Thank you, sincerely. Also If you could ever cover Country Roads if Blink 182 wrote it I'll forever be grateful
