    Ok, who HASN’T tried a s’more before?
    I give out free digital s’mores in the group here: www.radicalyt.com/howdy
    … I don’t actually, but that would be fun haha!

      Loved the video. Loved how it's actionable as always. I wished it had some real channel examples of this though. I know you don't like doing videos based on audience feedback all the time, unless it seems like a good idea or other people are in favor... but a great part 2 of this would just be looking at channels (maybe within your following) who are doing this, how they're doing it, and what they're doing well... and maybe some newbs, who are starting to do this, but it hasn't quite landed, but they're finding their feet? The last part is probably harder. But seeing real examples would be awesome.

    I didn't realise just how powerful spoken traditions were until I had people coming up to me telling me that they'd been drinking their water - one of the things I used to ask in my early videos is 'are you staying hydrated?' - so I'm working out where to put that back into my script to carry on the tradition!

    Coffee acquired. Now I get it! We have a few little "inside" sayings people feel the belonging with when they can anticipate. I'm constantly making messes and I say "Make a mess or it doesn't count." It started as a way to encourage people through making mistakes and it really did stick.

    Throughout the video I kept thinking, "I wish there were examples." And there were examples. Then I thought, "I wish I could see where to apply these." And there were areas of application provided. Fascinating stuff, although I feel that resistance thing you mentioned since I'm unsure yet in terms of fully applying it.

    Before I even finish watching… I need to get this out of my system: I love “Howdy Howdy” and that itself is sort of an example of this channel’s vocab. Everybody knows who says “Howdy Howdy” on UA-cam… 😃❤

    This is happening on my channel as we speak. I can just feel how healthy my community is. It all started with me telling people to drop the word "jellyfish" at the end of the video. I just wanted to see who made it to the end. It's turned into it's own thing and now the community is "Team Jellyfish." It's pretty crazy how having our own language has made the whole channel feel super healthy and it's growing steadily every single day. lol
    Now, I just got to design a "Team Jellyfish" set of merch and we will keep building. Thanks for sharing Nate. I think this is one of the most important things you can do on your channel.

    I like (hidden gems, great voices, inspiration to start a new instrument)
    this is what i enjoy (good music, different interpretation of songs)
    i don't like (noisy music)
    what i appreciate (good voice, skilful singing and music instrument performances)
    what i hate (youtube being unfair to new content creators)
    what i wish happened (that i can keep on keeping records of my growth in learning songs and instruments)
    what i think is hilarious (fails)
    Thank you Nate! You're the best! I love doing your homework. I'll check out as many of your videos as possible whenever I'm free to.

    In my videos, I say “bro,” “man,” and “dude.” For example, i could say something like this flannel is a staple, man. These three words are very common and lots of people use them in every-day language. So it’s awesome to include them in my videos. I’ve said bro like “BROOOO” before on the channel. Also, Drew sounds like “dude.” So it’s fun to pay attention to oh this sounds like this when i say things. I could emphasize on that.

    Much love Nate, grown quite a lot from watching your content, I haven’t had a viral video “yet” but to me, doing niche content, I’m okay with that, then again I’m doing the old fashion way of growing a channel and that’s over time, building a community, rather than aiming to go viral continuously. But I do have some other content planned on broader topics to try and branch out further. Either way, I’m happy with the growth so far. Again thanks mr Nate 🙏❤️

    It's early enough in the morning that I actually had the time and did the exercise (admittedly first time ever). It got me jazzed, and I was also able to rediscover a little nugget: I used to refer to a special segment of my audience as my "fancypants students" on my old ESL channel and do a little wink here and there. I need to bring that language back!
    Thanks as always,
