 Welcome to ReHash! Oh, did you know we're all news? This is all news. We bring you the best and worst of what's happening today. I'm Anthony Smith! So one thing you may notice, a partner didn't actually introduce us. Well, I guess I'm a partner. Yeah, you are. But, um, one of you guys did not introduce us. And that's because the person that we want to talk about at the end of this episode gave us an introduction that we couldn't use. But we wanted to talk about them, so we used one of our examples. We may continue to do this when we get an unusable intro. Then we can actually use them. All right, so we wanted to talk about news-y-type story things. Yeah. Yeah. All right, you want to go first? Maybe. You can't force me. So I'll tell you what. What's rock, paper, scissors for? All right, deal. Let's go. Okay, best out of three. All right, deal. No! Paper covers rock. That means I get to go first. Okay. Now, here's the thing. Ben Affleck and Christian Bale were caught shopping for Batman costumes together. The coolest people in the world. Yeah. So you want to talk about? I wanted to talk about the Nintendo president unfortunately passed away. It's almost worse than any other pre- Like, that hits me in the feels more than any other president worldwide. Yeah, it's short like childhood memories. And I wanted to talk to everybody about a white man turning black. What? Yeah. All right. All right, I'll show you. Let's go. So recently at Comic-Con, Ben Affleck, who was his first time appearing at a Comic-Con like this, especially after the announcement of the whole Bat-Fleck thing. So he was telling an anecdotal story about how he ran into Christian Bale last year in near October shopping for Batman costumes, of course, for their sons. What happened was both just happened to show up at the same costume shop and they both had their sons with them. And so, you know, of course, try to imagine this. You've got, you know, the old Batman meeting the new Batman and they're talking. And of course, you know, I would love to have a picture of that. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. The pretty picture is like that feels. I would love to, but unfortunately none exist that we know of. However, one cute little tidbit of information is that Ben Affleck, he specifically said, you know, to Christian Bale, do you have any tips about, you know, playing, you know, the Dark Knight? And um, and Christian Bale's advice was make sure that you can pee in the suit. So that was, that was actually pretty cool. So you had a newsie type, whatever. Yes, I wanted to talk about the Nintendo president unfortunately passing away. I have more feels about this story than any other, even actual like sitting governmental president worldwide dying. Because I mean, like, it's kind of like, you know, it hits with our childhood memories. Like I grew up playing like, you know, Nintendo 64. Either way, I'm going to try to, you know, pronounce it his name out of respect. His name is Saturu Iwata. Again, I do apologize if I could not pronounce it his name, but a document stating June 13th, he has passed away. Yeah, you know, comment down below via the comments. What was your favorite Nintendo game or did you guys play Nintendo? I'm very curious. I mean, this kind of hits with my childhood feels. But that said, what else do you want to tell me? I actually heard that they flew the flag half-mast. Good thing today, yeah. So you got a newsie type, whatever. As a matter of fact, I do. I wanted to talk about a man in Russia, a white man, who flew to the U.S. to get a liver transplant. And he was diagnosed with severe hepatitis C. And I believe one other ailment that escapes my brain at the moment. He received this liver transplant from an anonymous, unknown African-American donor. Now he is turning black. Wow, is there a picture? There is a picture on screen right now. And so apparently this is, it's not as uncommon as we would think for things like this to happen. It's almost as uncommon as an African-American or a black person. Being born to two white parents. This also happens on a very rare basis, but it is not unheard of. So has he made a statement or no? He has basically just saying, I'm getting darker. And one of his friends even commented saying that he's never been anything but an extremely pale white guy and now he's just turning dark. So I thought that was interesting. Let us know in the comment section down below if you've ever heard of any medical anomalies like this. Yeah, now I guess we're done with our stories. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, so I guess now we get to talk about the partner. Oh, that's cool. So today's partner is Zappu, or Zappu maybe? Hopefully, but I'll tell you right. And the reason that we couldn't use his intro is he didn't actually make a video where he said, I'm so-and-so and you're watching rehab. He actually put together like a CGI thing, which was not usable by us because it was too long. And also that's not what we're looking for. You know, if you're curious what we are looking for in an intro, look back at any previous episode of Rehash. But I wanted to talk about this channel because I think that people can learn a lot from it. So the main thing that I wanted to talk to Zappu about is the fact that his channel trailer is very soft, very quiet, and it's also for the most part limited to a very small box. Now, later on he does go into full-screen mode, but it does not really adequately sell me personally. Yeah, not like that on the channel. What about a mobile viewer? Like the script to be like that small for a mobile viewer. That's true. That's true. And I'm also noticing that I say this a lot, very little text in the descriptions. He's got very little, he needs to work on that. You should at least have one paragraph, and a paragraph is three to five sentences describing the video, even if that is the same for whatever series. So for instance, he's got amnesia. He could literally, every time he does an amnesia video, copy and paste the same paragraph if he's feeling a little bit less motivated. Yeah, but it's really good for SEO. I mean, it's literally a huge asset to grow a YouTube channel. That's why you see tens of thousands of small channels that never go anywhere because they don't do stuff like that. You know, when you add text via the description, of course, don't make it spammy, but put a good descriptive as to what it really is about. It'll rank better in the searches. And if you don't believe me, try this, okay? Go to, let's say you're playing a game, or you're doing a vlog on a specific topic. In your description, in your video, find an aspect that you think people might not know about. Like, okay, people, what is amnesia? Go to a Wikipedia page and literally copy and paste that section from the Wikipedia page and say, if you don't know what amnesia is, Wikipedia sets, that way you're given credit, and then copy and paste the first paragraph. This way, you can have that text. You can do this on a trial basis. Now, I wouldn't say to try to run an entire channel this way, but do that for, I would say, 30 videos or 30 days depending on which one is going to be longer, and see if you actually notice a difference. And you should. To add on to that, if I could suggest anything before we make the video too long, try to make the music a little low. I've noticed in some of your videos, the music is a bit too loud. In my content that I make on my personal channel, normally my music or my game audio is about negative 29 to 35 decibels. Well, it also depends on the level of speech. And speech is also a little bit quiet as well. But I think that we've covered this channel fairly well. I would tell you to anyone that you're working with on YouTube, put them in your featured box. I notice you don't have one on your channel. Put them there. Hopefully, maybe they'll feature you there as well. Make friends. Friends are the best part of YouTube. Find people to, if you're not collaborating, like actually like in-game, the very, very least, find people that you get along with, that you talk to, and feature them. You never know they may feature you back. And worst case scenario, you pick up an extra subscriber. Come on, that's nice. Best case scenario, maybe their channel takes off and they take you with it. Yeah, worth a shot. Yeah. All right. I believe that pretty much wraps everything up. I agree. All right. Till next time, don't forget to like, subscribe, and do all those things that make us love our jobs. Be awesome to yourself, and amazing to each other. See you guys later. Bye for your family.
