 Wow, okay, so I've reached 1000 subscribers. I know I kind of cheated by starting this channel up with a following of over 8,000 people on Instagram, but this is far more exciting for me. To each and every one of you, I say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm thoroughly chuffed that so many people can listen to me talk and actually want to stick around. It's an amazing feeling. I want to keep pushing this train as far as it can go, and I wouldn't be able to do it without your support and viewership. So, I have some announcements to make about my plans going forward. The first of which is that I have created a page on Subscribestar, which is a competitor to Patreon. I chose to go with this competitor because Patreon has a well-documented history of de-platforming people who advocate for freedom of speech, which is obviously an extremely libertarian position, so I couldn't in good conscience give them any business. The biggest reason why I think people should consider joining this if they like my content is that I'm in a temporary but fortunate position of being a student. Because my student loan just about covers my monthly bills, I only need a relatively tiny amount of income in order to go full-time with making content, which of course would mean that I can smash out content at a much, much quicker rate. There are 4 tiers available, the first of which is Coffee Tier at $2 per month. This will give you entry into my Discord server. If you're already in my server, don't worry, I'm not going to kick you out, but any newcomers from now on will now need to subscribe to gain access. Copper Tier grants you all the special subscriber privileges, which include one day early access to videos, which will be posted on the Subscribestar page, voting on video topics, behind-the-scenes updates, and your name featured at the end of the video. Silver and Gold tiers are only there if you want to pay more, in which case you're a fucking nut job and I love you. Copper, Silver and Gold tiers will also each get their own private lobbies in Discord. And as you can see, the further up you go in tier, the larger your penis becomes. YouTube analytics tell me that 99.7% of my audience is male, so if it's going to be a sausage fest, we might as well make it a big one. Second to this, I'll have access to PayPal through Streamlabs for those of you who would like to give one-time donations and attach a message which I'm guaranteed to see. And if you donate to this while I'm live streaming, it will appear on the stream. So yes, live streaming. I also have a page on Twitch where I will do all of my live streams, for which I want to get people from our community on to talk about libertarianism, hear their thoughts and stories and so on, and do some friendly debates in the same vein as a podcast. Speaking of which, for those of you who don't know, I am also essentially a ghost host for the e-militia podcast, which you can also find here on YouTube as well as on Spotify. I don't currently plan to stream directly to YouTube because it is a serious hassle and pain in the arse to set it up and then manage fods on here, and I'm much more familiar with doing it on Twitch. I think there is a way to stream to both Twitch and YouTube simultaneously however, so that is something I might consider. I have shown my face before and I'm not particularly strict about keeping it a secret, but for the time being I won't be showing it on here while I'm still at university as I don't want to piss too many people off by talking about politics, and especially economics which is what I'm studying. And finally in regards to live streaming, I would do gaming live streams if it seems that enough people were interested, but I doubt they would be yet, and streaming games is very intense on a computer, and while my laptop is a good one, that is a bit too much to ask of it, so they definitely could happen in the future. I'll also post the schedule for any live streams as and when they happen both here and on Twitter, so make sure you follow me on there as well. To wrap it all up, keep in mind that all of this could be subject to change. If you guys don't like any of these decisions that I'm making, please let me know, and if it seems that I'm truly making a bad call, I won't be afraid to reverse any of it. So thank you once again you bunch of legends. I'm really excited to see where we can take this, and here's to you going forwards. Cheers!
