You're not alone. The world of YouTube creation comes with its own language—a special vocabulary that can feel like an exclusive club for those in the know.In this comprehensive guide, Travis and Jen break down the essential YouTube terminology that every creator needs to understand, from basic filming concepts to advanced analytics metrics. They start with the fundamentals: A-roll (your main footage), B-roll (supplementary visual elements), jump cuts (editing without transitions), and cold opens (starting videos in the middle of action). With each term, they provide clear examples and practical applications that demystify these industry standards.The episode takes a deep dive into the metrics that matter most for channel growth. Learn the crucial differences between retention rate, average view duration, and total watch time—three similar but distinct measurements that reveal how viewers engage with your content. They clarify the often-confused RPM versus CPM distinction, explaining why one metric matters far more to your bottom line than the other. Travis and Jen even tackle the nebulous concept of "the algorithm," breaking down what creators actually need to understand about YouTube's recommendation system.Most valuable is their crystal-clear explanation of content strategy terminology. Discover what content buckets are and how to implement them, understand the critical importance of packaging (your title and thumbnail combination), and learn why knowing the difference between a copyright claim and a copyright strike could save your entire channel. This episode serves as both a beginner's introduction and a valuable refresher for experienced creators who may have been too embarrassed to ask about terms they've heard for years.Ready to speak the language of successful YouTubers? Listen now, and never fake your way through a creator conversation again. What YouTube term has confused you the most? Let us know in the comments!

That notification telling you "more regular viewers aren't watching" could actually signal you're successfully reaching new audiences—exactly what some content is designed to do.One listener's experience perfectly illustrates how seemingly small details can dramatically impact performance. After adding descriptions to dormant YouTube shorts, they immediately saw growth spike. This powerful reminder about metadata's importance reveals how YouTube's algorithm sometimes needs our help to understand what our content is truly about, especially when it lacks sufficient viewing data to make those determinations itself.We tackle the eternal question many creators face: start a new channel or pivot an existing one? For one listener managing three channels between 700-4,000 subscribers, the conventional advice to "focus on one niche" might not apply. Sometimes the happiest path isn't the most strategic one, and maintaining multiple creative outlets can prevent burnout even if it doesn't maximize growth. The same principle applies to balancing shorts and long-form content—recognizing they serve different viewer intentions rather than expecting one audience to seamlessly convert to another.The heart of successful YouTube strategy might be embracing what veteran creator Mark shared: "Only a handful of subscribers watch your channel anyway... the only failure is giving up too soon." Most channels see 80% of their growth from just 20% of their videos, with these "outlier" hits serving as stepping stones that gradually raise your baseline performance. Success isn't about making every video perform exceptionally but understanding how the ecosystem works together to create sustainable, long-term growth.What YouTube strategy questions are you wrestling with?

In this week's episode, we dive headfirst into Zack Snyder's hyper-stylized war epic, 300 — a film that turned history into a comic book battlefield. Is it a bold artistic statement or just a barrage of abs and blood? We break down its cultural footprint, iconic visuals, and quotability (yes, this is Sparta gets discussed), while also asking the real question: does 300 still hit like it did in 2007?We evaluate the performances (Gerard Butler yelling his heart out), Snyder's direction, and the influence of 300 on action cinema. Plus, our "Guess That Film from Letterboxd Reviews" segment returns with some epic commentary from the crowd.Stick around as we score the film on cultural impact, craft, critic and audience reception, and give it our final verdict: Overrated or Underrated?Follow us on all our socials! linktr.ee/overunderpodSupport the podcast on Patreon! patreon.com/overunderpodJoin our Discord server! discord.gg/Zqev7jEnXzBusiness Inquiries: overunderpodcastshow@gmail.comGrow your YouTube channel w/ VidIQ!vidiq.com/r?code=9cFKKLPodcast Hosts: Dylan DeAngelis and Jason GongIntro/Outro Music: Leva - The Vortex (Instrumental Version)Socials ---> https://linktr.ee/overunderpod

Adding YouTube to your podcasting game? Well, grab a seat because Thomas Umstadt Jr. is here to share what works and what doesn't. We're talking about the nitty-gritty of taking your audio-only podcast and slapping it onto the video platform that everyone and their grandma seems to be on. Thomas recounts his journey from simple audiograms to full-blown video episodes, sharing the highs and lows of his transition. Spoiler alert: it turns out that just tossing your podcast audio onto YouTube won't cut it. You need to think about titles and thumbnails—yes, those flashy little images that scream ‘click me!' As he explains, those are your first impressions; if they're not catchy, your content might as well be invisible. He dives into the technicalities too, discussing everything from gear and lighting to the importance of having a good backdrop (hello, bookshelves!). Plus, he shares some gold nuggets about audience demographics that might just make you rethink how you approach your content. So whether you're on the fence about YouTube or just curious about what the fuss is all about, this episode is packed with insights that might just give your podcast the boost it needs.

Titles and thumbnails are crucial for YouTube success, unlike in traditional podcasting. The first 30 seconds of your video need to grab attention or viewers will bounce. Using your phone as a camera can yield better results than expensive gear for video. A strong opening is key for YouTube; don't dilly-dally with long intros like in podcasts. Experimenting with different content formats can lead to surprising audience growth on YouTube. Did you get value from this show?

We break down Ethan Hunt's evolution, the franchise's stunt spectacle, and whether these films are cinematic masterpieces or just popcorn fluff.Is Fallout the best action movie of the decade? Did Dead Reckoning justify the hype? And how has Cruise's commitment to practical stunts shaped modern action filmmaking?

In this heartfelt discussion, Travis and Rob tackle the psychological side of content creation that often goes unmentioned beneath the surface-level metrics and strategies.When a viewer asks about niching down their history animation channel, the conversation reveals something deeper than just topic selection—it highlights the delicate balance between creative passion and audience-building. Rob shares a personal insight: "I will consume anything about World War II, but have far less interest in the French Revolution." This simple preference demonstrates why creators must find the intersection between what excites them and what builds a consistent audience.The most powerful segment emerges when discussing a creator who experienced viral success right before vacation, then returned unable to recapture their motivation. As Travis notes, "You have to disconnect your self-worth from view counts," highlighting the dangerous trap many creators fall into. The numbers game becomes a rollercoaster of emotion—when videos perform well, you feel invincible; when they struggle, worthless. This emotional cycle burns creators out faster than any algorithm change ever could.We also explore fascinating technical questions about viewer spikes, audience demographics, and when to revive dormant channels versus starting fresh. Each question peels back another layer of the creator experience, revealing that success often requires as much psychological resilience as it does strategic thinking.Whether you're struggling with burnout, confused by analytics, or simply trying to find your place in the creator ecosystem, this episode offers both practical wisdom and emotional validation. As Rob concludes with his word of wisdom: "Keep creating, no matter the challenges. You've got this."
What if everything we've been taught about human history is wrong? In this explosive episode of Total Disclosure, we're joined by Michael Forest—researcher, author, and documentarian behind the popular YouTube channel Aliencarvings. For the past five years, Michael has uncovered over 10,000 mysterious artifacts found in Mexico—many of which depict advanced beings, spacecraft-like imagery, and symbols that challenge mainstream timelines and the accepted origins of human civilization. Are these the remnants of a lost advanced race? Evidence of extraterrestrial contact? Or clues pointing to a deeper, hidden truth about our past? We dive deep into:The hidden meaning behind the alien-like carvingsWhy mainstream archaeology refuses to touch this subjectThe global implications if these artifacts are authenticConnections to Atlantis, the Anunnaki, and ancient mythsWhether history is being rewritten in real timeMichael's documentaries and books are available at AlienCarvings.com, and his work is opening minds around the world. Tune in for an unforgettable conversation that will leave you questioning everything.

This community-focused episode delivers unexpected insights into what makes creators tick when the cameras aren't rolling.Candy taste tests kick off the conversation, leading to the surprising discovery that Dollar Tree's Cow Tails dramatically outperform name-brand Gushers. From there, we dive into the creators we secretly wish we could befriend, with Travis sharing fascinating stories of meeting major YouTubers in their homes and what they're really like behind the scenes.The conversation takes fascinating turns as we reveal our strangest YouTube rabbit holes (did you know there's a proper way to butter bread at formal events?) and confess our most irrational content pet peeves. Jenn's hatred for improperly held lavalier microphones and Travis's frustration with misleading thumbnails spark a hilarious debate about the little things that drive creators crazy.Perhaps most valuable is our honest discussion about maintaining enthusiasm when motivation wanes. Rather than pushing through burnout, we explore how small changes and experimental formats can reignite creative passion—a refreshing counterpoint to typical creator advice.Whether you're a longtime listener or first-time visitor, this episode offers a genuine glimpse into creator psychology and the sometimes bizarre digital worlds we inhabit.

We explore why "good" retention varies drastically based on content length, traffic sources, and viewer behavior across different platforms.• TikTok has reportedly surpassed Twitch to become the second most streamed platform after YouTube• Retention graphs look different depending on video length, with shorts typically exceeding 100% while long-form content rarely does• High-view videos often have lower retention percentages than creators expect• Search traffic typically has shorter view duration than browse or suggested traffic• Breaking down retention by traffic source and subscriber status reveals more useful insights than aggregate data• YouTube doesn't currently track "hover behavior" when viewers preview but don't click• Platform differences significantly impact engagement behaviors (TV vs. mobile vs. desktop)• Mr. Beast has set unrealistic retention expectations for many creators• Viewer disclaimers and overexplaining opinions have become increasingly common in contentIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a five-star review and join us next time when we'll be sharing more about ourselves as creators.
“In the south it's always more dynamic. Everyone is just moving around all the time. In the north, it's slower. People are a bit meaner.” - Viet AnhFor nearly ten years now, I've called Vietnam home, and while I've experienced the incredible energy and warmth of the south, Viet Anh's perspective on the north offered a viewpoint I hadn't fully considered. It's fascinating how regional differences can shape the experience of living in the same country.We touched on the sometimes-surprising toxicity that can bubble up online, both within expat communities and among Vietnamese internet users. It's a stark contrast to the welcoming spirit I've largely encountered here. We also reflected on how things change over time – from cinema etiquette to the increasing polarization of opinions, it feels like the Vietnam I first encountered is constantly evolving.Key Takeaways:- There are perceived significant differences in pace and demeanor between the north and south of Vietnam.- Online toxicity is a notable issue within expat and Vietnamese online communities.- Cultural norms and perspectives are constantly evolving in Vietnam.- Stereotypes about foreigners in Vietnam, particularly English teachers, exist and need to be addressed.- The economic contribution of foreigners in Vietnam is often misunderstood, with many filling roles that locals don't typically pursue.Chapters and Timestamps:05:59: Discussion on Online Toxicity 10:59: Changing Perspectives and Behaviors Over Time 14:59: Stereotypes of Foreigners in Vietnam 24:00: Economic Contributions of Foreign Workers "Send me a message!"The Podcast Launch LabThe Podcast Makeover Try Descript for free here!Support the show
UFO Whistleblower Matthew Brown Breaks His Silence In the gripping conclusion of his in-depth interview with WEAPONIZED, whistleblower Matthew Brown delivers a stark message to the public, Congress, and fellow insiders: the time for silence is over. Drawing from his experience within the U.S. national security apparatus, Brown exposes how public perception of the UAP phenomenon is deliberately shaped — and how secrecy thrives through fear, greed, and willful ignorance. Brown, the author of the Immaculate Constellation report submitted to Congress, reveals never-before-heard details about the types of visual evidence captured by intelligence technologies, the unusual shapes of UAPs stored on classified servers, and the ways institutional secrecy suppresses legitimate inquiry. As pressure for disclosure builds, Brown outlines how the truth might finally come to light — and urges others with knowledge to come forward. #UFOwhistleblower #MatthewBrownUFOwhistleblower #UFOdisclosure #BONUSEpisodeBONUS EPISODE: FULL MATTHEW BROWN "IMMACULATE CONSTELLATION" WHISTLEBLOWER COMES FORWARD WITH BOMBSHELL TESTIMONY- VIA WEAPONIZED Feat.

"So those bastards bumped the bridge down so that nobody could use it, and the locals got pissed off at that 'cause they enjoyed having a bridge. So they rebuilt it."This trip was one of the most fun and immersive ones we've recorded so far. Pai has this laid-back charm and unexpected beauty that really took us by surprise.Adrie and I take you along as we explore some of Pai's must-see spots — and wow, what a day. We started with the National Park Hot Springs, where the water gets hot enough to boil eggs (or a human, seriously). Then we checked out the WWII Memorial Bridge (Nara Bridge), which has a surprisingly cool history behind it. After that, we made our way across the Bamboo Bridge, a nearly 1-kilometer-long structure built for the ‘Gram, complete with swings, hearts, and even a ladder to nowhere. Finally, we wrapped things up at the breathtaking — and slightly terrifying — Pai Canyon for sunset. It was beautiful, hilarious, a bit slippery, and definitely memorable. If you're heading to Pai or just want to know what it's really like, this one's for you.Key TakeawaysPai Hot Springs are natural and beautiful, but can be dangerous — always check temperatures and wear grippy shoes.Respect local customs — the hot springs are used by locals, so be clean and mindful (no peeing, no weed, no booze!).Tha Pai Memorial Bridge has a rich WWII history — rebuilt multiple times and now a perfect selfie stop.Bamboo Bridge is a modern tourist gem, filled with photo ops — hearts, swings, and “ladder to nowhere” included.Pai Canyon offers stunning views, but be prepared for narrow paths, sheer drops, and zero handrails — not for the faint-hearted.Chapters & Timestamps[00:02:00] Cultural Tips + Slippery Rocks Lo"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

Today, we're breaking down exactly how to balance these approaches for maximum channel growth.Evergreen content delivers steady, reliable views that continue performing years after publication. These videos solve persistent problems and offer lasting value to viewers discovering them at any point. But they require significant investment in research, production quality, and thoughtful storytelling. The payoff? A foundation of content that works for you 24/7, attracting viewers while you sleep.Trending content operates differently - delivering an exhilarating spike of views in a compressed timeframe. When you nail a trend, the immediate gratification is undeniable. "It's the shorts adrenaline," as we discuss in the episode - that overnight success feeling creators crave. The downside? After that initial burst, these videos often fade into obscurity. The key is understanding both approaches serve different purposes in your content strategy.We also explore content buckets - the strategic categorization system every successful channel needs. Most channels thrive with three primary content types, each serving distinct purposes in your growth. Some buckets attract new viewers through discovery, while others strengthen community connections. Understanding which bucket each video belongs to helps set appropriate expectations for performance and allocate your limited time appropriately.For creators balancing YouTube with full-time responsibilities, we offer practical advice on managing your time and expectations. The most important factor? "Make sure it's fun," we emphasize, "because if you're not in love with what you're doing, those few views are going to hurt so much worse." Finding genuine enthusiasm for your content remains the ultimate sustainability strategy.Ready to transform your approach to content creation?

"I think the Scottish accent's been voted one of the sexiest, but it's also, some of them, one of the most disgusting" - CraigThis bonus episode was a hilarious trip down memory lane. Craig and I just let loose with our Scottish accents, sharing stories about growing up in Glasgow that we've never really talked about on the main show. The cultural differences, the misunderstandings with Americans, and the unique character of Glasgow compared to the rest of Scotland - it all came pouring out in our natural voices. I think listeners will get a real kick out of hearing us in our element, not holding back on the Scottish slang and experiences that shaped us before we moved abroad. It's raw, it's authentic, and it's Glasgow through and through.What's fascinating is how our identities are still so tied to Scotland even though we've both been away for decades. The way we slip in and out of our accents, the experiences that only make sense to other Scots - it's like carrying a piece of home with you that never quite fades, even when you have no plans to move back. This episode really captures that weird space of being proudly Scottish while also acknowledging why we chose to build our lives elsewhere.Key Takeaways: - The difficulties of being understood with a Scottish accent in America and how Niall had to adapt his speech to be understood- How Americans have particular difficulty understanding Scottish accents, especially with words like "bottle of water" - Discussion of Scottish comedy (Kevin Bridges, Still Game) and how specific cultural references don't translat"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

The mystery gets solved in this eye-opening episode where Travis and Dan break down YouTube's complex music licensing deals. Rather than YouTube plotting to annoy viewers with ads, they reveal how streaming economics actually work—the platform has already been paid by advertisers, but when viewers block ads, it's creators who lose out on revenue.This conversation takes several fascinating turns, from exploring whether turning passions into content kills the joy (spoiler: it sometimes does), to sharing a listener success story proving that patience pays off. One creator watched their video flatline for 100 days before suddenly gaining 1,800+ views when the algorithm finally discovered it. This real-world example demonstrates why deleting "failed" videos too quickly might be a mistake.The most thought-provoking segment tackles the tough question many creators face: should you turn every hobby into content? Both hosts share personal stories of how transforming leisure activities into YouTube material sometimes drained the enjoyment completely. "Not everything you do should have a financial thing attached to it because it's going to burn you out," Dan wisely notes. This balance between content creation and personal fulfillment might be the secret to long-term creator sustainability.Whether you're wondering about using music in your shorts, considering a second channel for your cycling adventures, or trying to understand YouTube's recommendation system, this episode delivers practical insights wrapped in the hosts' trademark conversational style.

In this special extra episode of A Vietnam Podcast, I take you through a day filled with various adventures. Starting with a cold sunrise bike ride where the stunning beauty of the dawn was well worth the early wake-up. Then, I recount our challenging yet exhilarating hike to a waterfall, where we navigated through icy waters and tricky paths. Along the way, I share some interesting local quirks, such as the abundance of weed shops and Friday laundry closures. We opted to skip a wild tubing event due to our 'mature' age and instead enjoyed a fun, albeit slightly murky, poolside hangout. Join us on this journey and get a glimpse of the highs and lows of our travels.00:00 Introduction to the Extra Episode00:26 Exploring the Pool and Surroundings01:07 Sunrise Adventure03:54 Waterfall Hike Challenges08:14 Poolside Relaxation and Tipsy Tubing09:48 Sunset Bar and Local Discoveries11:36 Reflections on Pai13:46 Conclusion and Next Episode Teaser"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

"I planned to do six months. I planned to do like Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, that kind of bit of Southeast Asia and never left Vietnam.... It's so unlike any other place I've ever been." - Craig HaggartThis episode was a long time coming, and it was more than worth the wait. I've been trying to get Craig on the show for over six months, and sitting down with someone who not only shares my hometown but also so many formative experiences was something truly special. As two Glaswegians in Saigon, the nostalgia and humor flowed naturally—and maybe a bit too much football chat!What struck me most was Craig's vulnerability and openness. From his journey as a gay man in Glasgow to finding community in Vietnam, and navigating love, culture, and identity—he told it all with humility and a cracking sense of humor. I know listeners will take something valuable from this episode, whether it's a laugh, a moment of reflection, or simply a reminder of how far we can come when we step into the unknown.Key Takeaways: The chaotic beauty of Vietnam – “It's so unlike any other place… the smells, the lights, the busyness—it's sensory overload.”Coming out in Glasgow at 14 – Craig candidly shares what it was like to come out young and navigate high school as a gay teen.Vietnamese culture and family acceptance – Insight into being part of a liberal Vietnamese family and his relationship with his Northern-born boyfriend.Scottish identity and sectarianism abroad – A raw discussion on how football-related sectarianism follows Scots globally, and how i"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

The answer lies in a fundamental misunderstanding most creators have about how the platform actually works.The YouTube algorithm doesn't push your videos out to viewers—viewers pull videos that interest them based on their watch history and behavior patterns. This single insight completely transforms how smart creators should approach content strategy in 2024. As we discuss in this episode, YouTube has evolved dramatically since its early days when metadata, keywords, and tags were critical ranking factors. Today, the platform operates on a sophisticated system that predicts with uncanny accuracy what content will resonate with specific viewers.Watch history is the most powerful factor in YouTube's recommendation system. The platform builds detailed profiles of viewer interests by analyzing not just what you watch, but how long you watch it and what you do next. This explains those seemingly random but perfectly matched recommendations that appear on your homepage. We break down real examples of how this "digital word of mouth" connects viewers to content they never searched for but end up loving.For creators looking to grow, understanding these mechanisms is crucial. Rather than obsessing over tags (which YouTube has quietly deprioritized for years), focus on creating content that naturally follows videos your potential audience already watches. We explain practical strategies for joining ongoing conversations rather than trying to start new ones, and how to transition from purely search-based content to browse-worthy videos that capture viewer interest through emotional hooks and curiosity.Whether you're just starting out or looking to break through a growth plateau, this episode provides actionable insights into how YouTube's recommendation system actually works—and how to make it work for you. Download vidIQ for free to analyze search trends and content opportunities in your niche, then apply these principles to create videos that viewers will naturally pull into their feeds.
"My mouth is on fire. My tongue is totally burned, but I want another one… 'cause it's so good."This episode was such a wild mix of adventure, confusion, and food.

In this captivating episode, we sit down with journalist and filmmaker Kari Lindsay, whose documentary Dark Alliance dives deep into the UFO community's fascination with extraterrestrial contact and secret space programs. From the allure of figures like David Wilcock and Corey Goode to the ongoing influence of Narrative Building by UFO Experts or insiders, Kari explores why some believers overlook red flags to cling to compelling narratives. Join us as we unpack the psychology of the UFO world, question the credibility of its loudest voices, and reveal what Dark Alliance uncovers about truth, deception, and the human need to believe. Plus, in our exclusive members-only segment, we ask Kari the boldest questions yet, sparking answers that might just shake the UFO community to its core.

As Travis and Jen reunite after their in-studio recording sessions, they dive deep into the psychological realities that come with growing as a creator.Jen opens up about her new role producing content for the main channel, sharing a surprisingly vulnerable moment about re-recording videos multiple times because they didn't feel authentic to her voice. This sparks a fascinating conversation about creative identity and how easily creators can lose themselves trying to match what they think content "should" be rather than what feels natural.The duo tackles a question about channel impersonators, revealing the dark side of YouTube success when scammers create fake accounts to exploit your audience. They share practical advice for protecting your community while acknowledging the frustrating reality that these bad actors are increasingly sophisticated. It's a sobering reminder that growth comes with unexpected responsibilities.Perhaps most enlightening is their candid discussion about the metrics that actually matter. Contrary to what most new creators believe, subscriber counts have become increasingly irrelevant in the modern YouTube ecosystem. With algorithms effectively serving content regardless of subscription status, the hosts argue that view duration and engagement hold far more value than that once-coveted subscriber milestone. As Travis puts it: "Subscribing is irrelevant," a statement that might shock those still chasing those numbers.Both hosts reflect on their personal journeys, with Jen confessing, "I cried harder at 100,000 views than a million views," highlighting how those early achievements always feel more significant than later, larger ones. It's a powerful reminder to appreciate each step of your creator journey rather than constantly chasing the next benchmark.Join our Discord community through the link in the description to connect with fellow creators and participate in our monthly live recording sessions where you can ask questions directly!

Ryan Coogler's new film, Sinners, is now out in theaters, and with this film getting incredible critic and audience scores, we just had to check it out for ourselves to see if it's REALLY as good as everyone is saying it is. With that being said, we went full SPOILERS with this review, so if you haven't seen the film yet, you have been warned!Ryan Coogler's Sinners is a genre-defying Southern gothic horror set in 1932 Mississippi. Michael B. Jordan stars in dual roles as twin brothers Smoke and Stack, WWI veterans who return home to open a juke joint with their musically gifted cousin Sammie (Miles Caton). Their dream of creating a safe haven for Black culture is shattered when a sinister force—led by an Irish vampire named Remmick (Jack O'Connell)—descends upon their community, turning the opening night into a battle for survival.Blending supernatural horror with themes of racial injustice, cultural appropriation, and artistic legacy, Sinners is Coogler's most personal and ambitious film to date. Shot in large-format IMAX and featuring a haunting score by Ludwig Göransson, the film has earned critical acclaim for its bold storytelling and powerful performances.Follow us on all our socials! linktr.ee/overunderpodSupport the podcast on Patreon! patreon.com/overunderpodJoin our Discord server! discord.gg/Zqev7jEnXzBusiness Inquiries: overunderpodcastshow@gmail.comGrow your YouTube channel w/ VidIQ!vidiq.com/r?code=9cFKKLPodcast Hosts: Dylan DeAngelis and Jason GongIntro/Outro Music: Leva - The Vortex (Instrumental Version)Socials ---> https://linktr.ee/overunderpod

From seasonal content slumps to promoting topics nobody's searching for, this episode delivers actionable strategies that transform obstacles into opportunities.When a physics tutorial creator asked how to maintain momentum during summer breaks when students aren't studying, we explored creative ways to pivot content while staying on-brand. By connecting physics concepts to fun summer activities and experimenting with short-form content, educational creators can turn the "off-season" into a period of creative growth and audience expansion.For the indie horror film enthusiast struggling to get views on movies nobody's heard of, we revealed powerful techniques to leverage the familiar as a bridge to the unknown. By creating comparative content ("If you like this popular movie, you'll love these indie gems") and tapping into streaming platform searches, niche creators can find their dedicated audience without compromising their passion.The most surprising segment tackles YouTube's dramatic change to view counting metrics. Creators woke up to a 30% increase in views overnight as YouTube aligned their counting method with TikTok's approach. While the numbers might look better, we discuss what this actually means for monetization, brand deals, and performance measurement.Throughout the episode, we challenge the self-doubt that plagues creators thinking "who cares about my content?" by demonstrating how specificity is actually your superpower. The narrower your focus, the more opportunities you'll find for collaborations, special access, and building a fiercely loyal community that mainstream creators can't match.Whether you're battling seasonal fluctuations, promoting niche topics, or trying to make sense of YouTube's latest metrics changes, this episode provides the mindset shift and tactical approaches to turn YouTube's mayhem and chaos into your competitive advantage.
"Gen Z in Vietnam are so driven. They're baristas in the morning, creators by night, and students in between." - Adele DoanThis conversation with Adele Doan was full of energy, insight, and plenty of laughs. Adele's a TEDx speaker, community builder at Workflow, founder of Career Lab, and LinkedIn influencer with over 80,000 followers—and it's clear she's leading the charge in how young Vietnamese people think about work, social media, and identity.We talked about everything from learning English through How I Met Your Mother, to why Facebook is too noisy for professionals, and how Gen Z in Vietnam are hustling in new, creative ways. She also opened up about the evolution of Saigon—what's changed, what hasn't, and what still needs to happen, especially in terms of art, culture, and public spaces. Adele's mission is all about using social media with intention and building meaningful careers, and this episode is packed with stories and ideas to inspire anyone navigating the future of work in Vietnam.Key TakeawaysLinkedIn is still an untapped opportunity in Vietnam – and Adele's helping Gen Z unlock it.

Facebook is cluttered—LinkedIn is where career-focused conversations are happening.Saigon is growing fast—but still lacks creative spaces, museums, and arts infrastructure.

“ Drag, I think, is also just a form of art that it doesn't really require you to have any experience in art.” - Gia NguyenGia's story is one of resilience, self-expression, and community-building, and I think that really shines through in our discussion. It was insightful, energetic, and, most importantly, a conversation that truly needed to be had. We talked about everything from craft beer to drag culture in Vietnam, and Gia's perspective on how the country is evolving was fascinating.What really struck me was how accepting Vietnam is of the LGBTQ+ community, especially compared to some other countries. Gia shared that while there are still challenges, the overall cultural attitude is one of curiosity rather than judgment. It's refreshing to hear that queer people can express themselves openly without fear of widespread discrimination. This is one of the reasons I love Vietnam so much – the people here may be conservative in some ways, but they also have a deep-rooted respect for others living their truths.Gia's journey into drag was another highlight for me. It was a spur-of-the-moment decision that led to years of performances, community organizing, and the creation of Peach, a space where people of all identities can express themselves. That level of passion and commitment to representation is something that truly deserves recognition.Niall MackayKey Takeaways:- LGBTQ+ acceptance in Vietnam is deeply rooted in traditional religious practices- Vietnamese society tends to be curious rather than judgmental about LGBTQ+ expression|"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

In this eye-opening episode of Tube Talk, Travis and Jenn deliver the hard truth: paid promotion often brings the wrong audience and can hurt more than help. "Please stop running your ads," Jenn asserts, explaining why organic growth consistently outperforms paid traffic for sustainable channel success.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Jenn reveals her pre-publishing ritual - she needs to "feel right" about releasing a video, sometimes closing her laptop multiple times until the universe aligns. This sparked a deeper discussion about the psychology behind content creation and how many creators likely have their own unique rituals. As Travis puts it, "Publishing a video is a sport," and like athletes, creators develop routines that help them perform.One of the most powerful moments comes when Travis challenges our perception of success on YouTube. While many creators dismiss "low" view counts, he reminds us that having 50 people watch your video is equivalent to filling a room with interested listeners - something that would be considered remarkable in any other context. "We need to normalize the fact that almost any amount of views is really impressive," he explains, encouraging creators to celebrate every milestone along their journey.The hosts also tackle niche expansion strategies for gaming channels, recommending a gradual approach called "wedging" - slowly introducing new game content while maintaining your core focus. This method helps bring your existing audience along rather than shocking them with an abrupt change.Want to join the conversation?
