Happy Veterans Day. 🇺🇸
Thank you to everyone who served, and to the families who served right alongside them.

Creators, real question. 🎥
Watch time still matters to me, but retention and search intent feel like the bigger levers now.
What are you focusing on to grow right now?

The nicest weather in the USA today will be in and around Tucson, AZ and Richmond, VA.
Plans change. 🌧️
Rain killed a 10-hour furniture delivery run to Austin, so Sunday turned into a shop day instead. Still counts as progress.
How do you handle it when your plans fall apart?

Backup audio saves the day. 🎙️ One of my mics picked up a crazy buzz halfway through recording, so I just switched audio and kept going.
Creators, do you record a backup track?

My dad thinks Friday might have been our biggest sales day ever.
Temperatures drop, snowbirds come back, restaurants get busy. Our part timer is working more hours due to the new customer, and the big truck is back in use. Three giant days in a row.
Let's hope it continues.

Twenty years is a long time to point a camera at yourself, at your family. Bryce and Sierra grew up on this channel, from little kids to the adults they are today, and I wanted to hear from them directly. What was it actually like? What do they remember? What did they wish had been different?
During our celebration live stream, I went back through the early archives; six years of vlogs before the channel ever took off, before the viral moment, before any of this became what it is today. Watching those old videos, I realized something that genuinely stopped me in my tracks: nothing about the way I show up has changed. Same guy, same reasons, same approach. Twenty years in, that means everything.

People don’t talk about how stressful being a Creator is
- Always coming up w ideas people care about
- Trying to be entertaining an entire stream
- Posting everywhere so people don’t forget u
- Networking, Editing, Comments, etc.
It’s way more than just clicking Upload
Marc IRL retweeted
Harsh advice for Creators:
Remember that people can’t watch you if you’re always too scared to hit Upload
You'll come up with excuses to not stream or upload because you're nervous
Everyones scared when they start
Scared of being judged, failing, etc.
Just do it scared.

"I don't have time"
-Spent 30 minutes scrolling before getting out of bed
-Spent 10 minutes debating breakfast
-Spent 15 minutes scrolling after eating
-Spent that break scrolling
-Spent lunch scrolling
-Spent 30 minutes to eat dinner while you scrolled
-Spent and hour "making content" while you watched someone else's stream and stressed about their analytics
-Spent 2 hours of your evening "relaxing" while you gave your time to other creators, celebrities or athletes
-Spent 30-60 minutes scrolling while laying in bed.
You have time, you just dedicate most of it to other people or things that consume your attention when you should be giving it to yourself.
