YOU FILL A STADIUM - I CAN’T FILL A TOILET | Minus Sixteen Ep. 40
Boy - where to start with this episode? We covered so much.
We briefly mentioned the new 15-inch MacBook Air and the Beats Studio Buds+ and then we rolled up our sleeves and got down to our normal YouTube business.
This time around we cover shorts, live streams, my first Google pay cheque and Alex’s 65,000 subs. More than that, we chat about quanitiy over quality, the roll of Substack and is one video per week enough to keep YouTube happy?
Get involved - if there is anything you want us to talk about then let us know!
