00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,120
Hi Yvonne, welcome to Reacting to Your First Appearance on LMG.

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:09,280
All right, here we go. Do you think you remember what your first appearance was?

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:15,120
No, I don't think so. It was probably some sort of office makeover or the moving vlog videos that we did.

4
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,280
Unless you count back when I used to film with Linus, but I don't think I was ever in those. I think I only just filmed.

5
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:24,640
So we were trying to figure this out as well, and as you can see, I've shortlisted some videos in front of you.

6
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,000
Okay. But to get to that, we ended up having to ask Linus,

7
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,400
and if you alt-tab for me, you'll see Linus's long list of videos.

8
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,320
Man, he was detailed. I don't know that I remembered all of this.

9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,040
Yeah, so he went to the specificity of you being in and of it being blurred out,

10
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,560
you not saying anything, saying something. That's funny because you can, from his list here,

11
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,600
you can kind of see the progression of where it started, which is cool.

12
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,880
I was definitely not comfortable being on camera before. It took a long time.

13
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:59,840
Still takes a while. Let's start with reacting to one of the ones you filmed for Linus.

14
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,680
Sure. Oh man, the quality of our videos before were so bad.

15
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,800
That, I think, was a table from his aunts that we had.

16
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,080
And, oh man, where was this? Was this at my parents' place, or?

17
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,560
How did this go about? Like, did you volunteer to film, or did you have no choice?

18
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,600
I think it was more just that he worked all the time,

19
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,760
and I wanted to spend time with him, and if the only way I could spend time with him was to help him work,

20
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:30,240
then I was going to do that. Because he would bring home, like, I kid you not,

21
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,880
a carload full of products over the weekend, and I'll just be like, Linus, what's going on?

22
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,600
And he's like, I have to film all of these this weekend. I'd be like, okay, well, here, I'll help you.

23
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,520
We'll make it go faster. It's kind of been our relationship to do everything together

24
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,640
and just kind of help each other with whatever it is. Oh, that's sweet.

25
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,120
So I learned a lot more about products, tech products, than I would have otherwise.

26
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:56,320
Do you think this was the first one you ever filmed, or...? I don't know. It seems early enough, yeah.

27
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,680
Like, I was with Linus before he started at NCIX.

28
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,800
Correct. So any time he filmed off-site, it was me.

29
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:07,360
You were the only camera person? Yeah, so there was the cameraman,

30
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,840
which was who would film with him at the office, and then just, yeah, everything else was with me.

31
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,760
Sometimes I think he self-filmed, but that was a lot more difficult. Yeah, this is brutal.

32
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:20,960
I'm so glad that our production quality is better now. There's also another one to go to the next video.

33
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:29,680
Oh, in Singapore. Okay, see, the thing that I tell you about how Linus just does Linus things,

34
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,640
and if you want to spend time with Linus, you better do things with him. We were supposed to be on a family vacation

35
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:38,480
with my extended family in Singapore, and of course, he has to work,

36
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,480
and so I'm just like, Linus, seriously, we paid all this money to be overseas,

37
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,920
and to spend time with people we haven't seen in 10 years,

38
00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:50,400
and you want to work. All right. Well, I guess we better make this go fast,

39
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,560
and he obviously needed someone. There was no plan for anyone else to film for him,

40
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,600
so I think he just assumes now that I will do this for him.

41
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,640
I mean, he's not wrong. I did, so. Was your family comfortable with him

42
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,040
deciding to upgrade the Wi-Fi at their place? I think so.

43
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,160
I think they were having problems. Actually, you know what? Don't quote me on this.

44
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,360
I don't remember exactly, but I don't know if they cared.

45
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,160
I think it was that Linus went to their house, and because in Singapore, all the homes are made of concrete, not wood.

46
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,440
He was having troubles with the Wi-Fi, so he was just like, I can't stand this.

47
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,320
We have to be here for the next two weeks. I need to fix this.

48
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,240
I think that might be how it originated, actually. Of course, they got Wi-Fi upgrades,

49
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,560
so I think they put up with them. He's always thinking of content ideas,

50
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,840
wherever he is, whatever he's doing, even on vacation.

51
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,760
I'm surprised they let him film the inside. Their home is beautiful.

52
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,200
That's my mom. All these shots taken by you?

53
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:50,160
I don't remember, but I do remember that Linus would get so annoyed with my aunt.

54
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,760
Okay, so it runs on my mom's side of the family to be clean freaks,

55
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,320
and so Linus would take a drink of water, put his cup down, go to do something,

56
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:03,680
come back to get another drink, and his cup would be gone, because she's just like so anal about cleaning.

57
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,080
I remember this video took a long time. I think if you skip to about the halfway mark,

58
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,520
it's probably where I think you're following him around.

59
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,880
Yeah, yeah. Was this one of your first times

60
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,760
kind of experiencing him in a market type

61
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,880
setting? No, it's not actually. So when we were, oh man,

62
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,080
like when we had first started dating, we went to the Richmond night market.

63
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,560
I don't know if you know what that is. It like had market type things, and he was like, buy me a sword.

64
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:36,800
I want a sword. I was like, are you serious right now? And this was back when you could burn DVDs and CDs,

65
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,240
and you could get good deals at the night market. Right. So yeah.

66
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,280
Back in that era is when we first went to a market.

67
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:48,160
Oh wow, we used Unify even back then. That's cool. Do you think you'd be able to take on

68
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,680
the duty of camera person now? I don't know.

69
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,000
The cameras we use are kind of complicated now.

70
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,120
I know that most of them have an auto setting, so probably I don't think that it would be the same

71
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,400
quality as the guys do now, but I could get by if I had to.

72
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,800
Like if I had to do this again, I probably could. It's why I'm seeing Linus without socks.

73
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:13,040
Oh my god, yes. No socks, no sandals. Yeah, let's move on to your first appearance.

74
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,920
And as Linus mentioned, also your first word on camera.

75
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,080
Oh man, yep. See, man, our life, our private life,

76
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,480
our personal life, and work were so intertwined.

77
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,840
This is literally like what we had to do. I had bad posture.

78
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:33,920
I need to work on that. So yeah, I had to bring the entire family,

79
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,120
the baby and our toddler,

80
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,600
to go and get office equipment.

81
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,200
I don't miss those days. How did you feel about appearing on camera for the first time?

82
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,440
Like was that on your mind? No, I don't think so, not at all.

83
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,200
I mean, there's so many things that are distracting at this point, right? There's the baby, there's the toddler,

84
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,120
there's the actual shopping, there's the filming. It's almost too much to keep in your head.

85
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,400
You're just kind of focused on getting it done. I was probably just focused on getting it done.

86
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,280
Like, hey, we need to get out of here as soon as possible. There's so many things we need to do.

87
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:09,120
Let's go. Did you try for as long as possible to actively avoid being on screen?

88
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,720
I did, actually. I don't really know why anymore at this point.

89
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,040
I think just insecurity about being online.

90
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,240
I tend to be a really private person and kind of an introvert.

91
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,960
And so being on camera didn't really jive with that. But I think over time, I've gotten a little bit more used to it.

92
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:30,240
And the audience is really nice, so that helps a lot. Linus is the exact opposite to that.

93
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,040
Well, you know what? A lot of people think that Linus is an extrovert because he can present as one,

94
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,840
but he's actually more introverted than I am. Oh, really? Yeah, you wouldn't think that, but yeah.

95
00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:44,240
Yeah, it's kind of hard to tell at work, I guess, because I mean, when it comes to talking to people,

96
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:49,120
he's absolutely comfortable. He's excellent at it, yeah. And I am not. Like, if you ask me to do public speaking,

97
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,160
I just clam up. I can't do it.

98
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,680
And then I come across as really dumb. It doesn't help me.

99
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,720
I totally feel that. Okay, let's move on to the next video.

100
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:04,640
Okay. So this one is, you're on a phone call at Ronald's pranking Linus.

101
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,720
I remember this one. I think, was it Luke who asked me to do this?

102
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:11,520
Hey, where are you? You're supposed to be here already.

103
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,520
Well, I texted you earlier. Our flight's leaving earlier. You're supposed to be here.

104
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:22,160
I sound really believable. You lied really well in the Swedish video.

105
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,840
What's really funny is that I'm actually a terrible liar. So I'm really surprised this happened.

106
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,320
Linus always can tell. You were a goer late. I've been trying to call you and reach you.

107
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,920
I wonder if the reason this one is so believable

108
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,360
is because I have conversations with Linus like this all the time. Oh, right.

109
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,440
So he waited like where he needs to be. I need to meet me at the airport.

110
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,440
I'm packing up the kids right now. We need to go. Okay, okay, okay, okay.

111
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,800
Okay, bye. I was really stressed out about lying to Linus

112
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,920
and pranking him about this because he's already super stressed.

113
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,680
And I didn't want to add to it. But for video content, that's what you do, right?

114
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,960
You just go for it anyway. I think you can tell in this video

115
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,200
when he gets really stressed out because it goes on for a little too long.

116
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,840
People are helping him gather things. And I think they've also, someone also disconnected

117
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,120
the battery in his car. So he was trying to move it and he's like,

118
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,080
my battery's dead. I felt so bad after.

119
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,800
Yeah. Oh, this was when the Civic was black still.

120
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,520
Did you guys actually have a flight to catch at some point? I think we did because otherwise it wouldn't have been believable.

121
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,760
This might have been, was this right before the Singapore trip? Like I wonder if that's the one we went to?

122
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,400
I think there's a little newer than the

123
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,280
It's got to be something else then. Like the next day or just that night?

124
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:46,320
I think it was, it must have been that day. Right. And you were just telling him that the flight's been moved off.

125
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,280
I just want to say I didn't know until like most of the way through.

126
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,040
Wait, Luke didn't know? Okay, I wonder who asked me to do it then.

127
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,400
Okay. No, I obviously don't remember properly.

128
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:01,040
I guess off-screen is a pranking line as something you kind of do.

129
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,680
Like, do you try to mess with him a little bit? No, not, not, not in this way, like not in pranks.

130
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,360
Like we like to tease each other and like make fun of each other,

131
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,760
but not usually pranks. Everyone looks so young. Everyone looks like babies.

132
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,280
So this is your next, I guess, bigger appearance.

133
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,960
Okay. Oh man, I was, I hated this video so much.

134
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:26,320
I hated this day so much. It was awful. They sent me from place to place to place.

135
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:33,440
I was so tired of driving. And then after all that, they made my office look like a nursery.

136
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,680
Hey, but I think in this video, you say you like it.

137
00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:40,160
I mean, I liked that it had a story.

138
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:47,120
You being nice. A little. That filing cabinet sucked so much.

139
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:52,240
I had glitter on me every single day for as long as I had that stupid filing cabinet.

140
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,320
It was unbelievable. I mean, it kind of was a nursery. I brought the kids to work a lot

141
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:01,520
because I was supposed to be on mat leave. So at least they had somewhere that was bright and happy and fun

142
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:06,960
and they even had toys. It's insane to think how much the offices transformed.

143
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:12,000
Yes. That's now like a call room. I think procurement was there for a bit.

144
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,240
We've had so many office makeovers and each time we try to make it like,

145
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,160
I think the first time I did an office makeover, it was just like, okay, just paint it whatever colors

146
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,760
so that it looks good on camera and let's just like move on. And then the next time it was like, okay,

147
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:28,160
let's add a little bit of depth to it. Can we make some kind of LMG somehow?

148
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,360
And then like every time I feel like we just kind of try to do that even more.

149
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,720
So when you go around and look at the personalizations that have happened after,

150
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,840
I feel like they're a lot more meaningful. Like, I don't know if you know,

151
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,280
but in the writer's den, for example, no, sorry, that was for the pictures

152
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:46,080
that are in the main entryway. So it's like our top videos that line the wall over there.

153
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,680
Like everyone can do just random decorations like home decor or whatever.

154
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:52,880
We just tried to make it personalized and like techy and cool.

155
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,800
Better than just a bland office, you know? Yeah. It's core pretty feeling.

156
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,080
One day we'll get to the lab. We haven't done that yet.

157
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,640
I think that's going to be a huge job. Yeah. And I don't have time for that right now.

158
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,240
All right. So this is your first ever time hosting a video

159
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,360
and it was a tech link. Tell us a little bit about how you got to this.

160
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,320
I don't know the evolution of how I got to this.

161
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:21,440
I was starting to get a lot more comfortable on camera and I think Linus just wanted me to try something.

162
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:26,640
And TechLinked is a great place to kind of start because you don't necessarily need to do

163
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:31,120
a whole lot of research beforehand. You're reading the news. So it's all scripted.

164
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,880
Yeah. I guess it was just kind of like a playground for a host

165
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,560
to get started and see how it feels and improve from there.

166
00:11:38,560 --> 00:11:42,000
So. Evonne. Can we? Yeah. I want to come home technically.

167
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,800
Really? Yeah. Come on. Okay. There you go.

168
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,360
All right. Catch. So this is so awkward.

169
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:54,080
The sad part is I don't know if it's better than this now. Oh, man.

170
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,120
I don't think I can watch this. You're skipping through it. You're skipping through it.

171
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,120
What? You have to watch yourself. That's how we're here. Oh, okay.

172
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,560
All right. All right. All right. Take our jerbs. Jerbs, Riley.

173
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:07,680
We got our jerbs. This is so awkward.

174
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:10,960
I was very nervous. I don't know if you can tell, but I was very nervous.

175
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,560
I still get nervous now, but this is like a whole another level of nervous.

176
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,280
Honestly, that's pretty understandable. But also I think you did a pretty good job.

177
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:22,880
Oh, thanks. And I think most of the audience also agrees in the comments.

178
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:29,200
Yeah. They were really nice and they were really supportive and I think that was why I was okay with even trying to do more.

179
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:33,200
You know what? I think a big part of it too was that when I was on mat leave

180
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:37,760
and you spend your entire day talking to kids, you kind of forget how to talk to adults

181
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:42,000
or talk to other people in general. So it took a it felt like double stacking.

182
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,680
Like I'm already not comfortable being in the public or public speaking.

183
00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:50,880
And then you add to that just like not even having the opportunity to practice socializing on a day to day level.

184
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,960
It just made it really hard. Were you comfortable with reading off a like teleprompter?

185
00:12:54,960 --> 00:13:01,840
No, I had never used a teleprompter before. So it took a lot of just like trial and error to get the speed, right?

186
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:07,920
And then I think I did the thing that you're also not supposed to do where you're just like reading with your eyes

187
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,920
instead of trying to look at it and just like having it in the background as you're reading.

188
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,760
Were there any failed takes from this shot?

189
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,240
Probably, but Riley helped a lot.

190
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,040
He was really encouraging and positive and that helped.

191
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:27,040
I think you're right about TechLinked being a nice little setting for people to start out on.

192
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:33,280
Yeah, and it helps that you have somebody like Riley in the background just talking to you.

193
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,400
It makes it feel a lot more conversational and easier to do.

194
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,480
Yeah, yeah, that was very awkward.

195
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,680
All right, fast forward to your more recent appearance

196
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:47,120
is when you hosted a ShortCircuit. How'd this come about?

197
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,520
I was really nervous for this one too. This was my first time solo hosting any video.

198
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:57,680
I did not prepare for it as much as I would have wanted to. I think I literally just put all my thoughts down in the car on the way over.

199
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,320
But the great part is though that I had lots of experience with the

200
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,160
Cricut already, so I think that shows.

201
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,200
Jono was super helpful in this one, just kind of telling me,

202
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,160
sorry, I'm getting lost in this video now.

203
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,320
He was really good about just telling me, hey, your energy level is great here, keep it up.

204
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,680
Or being like, okay, I don't know if people necessarily care about this.

205
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,840
Why don't we go on to the next points and things like that? I remember all the tips that Linus tells me,

206
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,840
anytime you think you're being energetic, amplify that five times

207
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:35,520
because the camera takes so much of it away. So I tried really hard to do that in this video.

208
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:42,160
Yeah, you kind of have to exaggerate. Did the product come around first and they thought you'd be a good fit to host?

209
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:46,640
Or did you kind of? No, I volunteered to do this one or Linus volunteered me.

210
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,560
One of the two of the things. I think it was more like I was thinking about it,

211
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,080
but I kind of needed that extra shove of encouragement to actually do it.

212
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,600
How do you think this compares to your tackling toasting?

213
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:02,560
Oh my goodness, I feel like this was a night and day difference. But even then I look at this video and I'm just like,

214
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,320
oh no, all the things that I did wrong in it, how can I do better next time?

215
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:11,120
Like what? I hate when I misspeak and I feel like I did that a few times.

216
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:18,320
Cricut, Cricut, like. But I think even the most experienced hosts do that too right now, right?

217
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:23,440
Yeah, that's true. And obviously being around Linus and seeing him do things in one take,

218
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,560
I'm just like, okay, well the standard is here

219
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,680
and I am not meeting that standard and so it just makes me feel bad.

220
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:34,800
He calls himself the professional communicator in our household. Oh boy, oh boy, what a title.

221
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:40,480
That does not go well at all. Do you think you'd ever host more short circuits or any kind of videos?

222
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,880
Honestly, I'd love to.

223
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,080
It's kind of a nice break from doing numbers and paperwork all day,

224
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:53,200
so definitely, definitely interested. Because it goes so long in between when I do host,

225
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,800
I feel like I don't make as much or like I don't improve enough

226
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:03,360
for how long it seems like I host four. Like if you look at this, the first video is from what, like 10 years ago?

227
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:09,920
That's seven years ago. Seven years ago, okay. If you look at it and you're like, well you've been in the film industry for seven years,

228
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,160
but then you think about where I am now and I'm just like, yeah, no, that doesn't match up.

229
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:21,440
If I do a video every three years, it's hard to kind of get to Linus' level when I do that.

230
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:26,080
But I guess you've been in a lot more of log style content, which is much easier,

231
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,440
I'm guessing, to kind of be on screen. It isn't, it isn't.

232
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:35,440
I feel like it's completely different. So with log stuff, because it's in areas that I don't necessarily know,

233
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:41,520
like tech is not my forte. I feel like it's more challenging because I don't feel like I can contribute as much.

234
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,880
But then obviously when I'm with Linus or if I'm hosting with Linus,

235
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:51,040
there's that relationship in history that I can kind of rely on. But if I had to do that with somebody else, I don't think that I could necessarily.

236
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:56,720
But then yeah, I would love to if there's things that kind of overlap with our audience.

237
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:01,760
Like I think the cricket was great for that. And if there were other things like that, I would love to.

238
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,040
I think I got the laser, the laser cutter.

239
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,320
I can't remember what it's called now. I haven't used it yet. I really should.

240
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,080
But I got that as part of my AMD upgrade to try to use it.

241
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,680
And then hopefully do a video like this again on the ShortCircuit channel.

242
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:21,840
Sorry, that was a convoluted way of saying I would love to. I just need to have products that kind of overlap well.

243
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,280
It's also probably refreshing to see, you know, not just Linus there all the time, right?

244
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,400
Well, I like Linus. I don't know the problem with that.

245
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:36,160
Yeah, I'm going to look back on this in 10 years from now and be very upset at myself for just.

246
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:42,240
Yeah, this video. Why? Like, why, why, why?

247
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:48,480
Because I feel like I'm processing so slow. Like that last part where I just completely said random stuff.

248
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,920
And then at the end of it was like, what did I even say just now? No, it's okay.

249
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,640
I feel bad. Hey, you're not hosting, hosting. So it's okay.

250
00:17:55,920 --> 00:18:01,440
It's a conversation, right? Let's see. If I can't even have a conversation, how can I host?

251
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,120
I can be really hard myself sometimes. So if you haven't noticed.

252
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:11,440
Is there a different style of video or anything that you wouldn't mind trying out to either

253
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,520
host or be featured in? I mean, I would totally be down to host TechLinked again.

254
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:19,200
I think I hosted one or two more after that one that got significantly better.

255
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,640
Kind of just dropped off. So yeah, I would totally be down for that.

256
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,800
And honestly, I'm down to do more blogs and other things too.

257
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,400
It's just, it's whatever kind of fits the schedule and whatever fits the content.

258
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,440
I don't want to force something that's not right. Awesome.

259
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,520
So we've got to go talk to Riley and get you on the next TechLinked.
