[4276.82 --> 4277.00] Yeah.
[4277.00 --> 4278.82] How do you guys expect the channel to perform?
[4279.00 --> 4282.38] Some people are asking comparatively to TechQuickie, but I don't really think that's super relevant.
[4282.38 --> 4287.26] But like the, like, how do you expect the growth of the channel to go?
[4288.30 --> 4290.40] I feel like I'm a bad person to answer that question.
[4290.54 --> 4291.74] You guys know so much about.
[4292.18 --> 4292.44] Okay.
[4292.44 --> 4293.88] I think this is general to.
[4294.06 --> 4299.20] So my expectation for the channel was, or not my expectation.
[4299.20 --> 4307.50] My goal was as sort of a, a, a salty, well, sort of thing.
[4307.50 --> 4317.04] My goal was for TechLinked to basically immediately have as good or better viewership than the latter
[4317.04 --> 4319.86] episodes of TechLinked on the NCIX comm channel.
[4320.42 --> 4324.20] Anything beyond that, I consider to be a smashing success.
[4324.78 --> 4331.06] And as for the sales team, anything above a hundred thousand views of video should be
[4331.06 --> 4333.30] quite easy for them to bring in sponsors for.
[4333.30 --> 4338.42] Or if they can bring in sponsors on a consistent basis, we will, we will comfortably cover,
[4338.42 --> 4345.98] um, Riley's, uh, Riley's cost and the extra editing courses that we need.
[4346.20 --> 4350.74] And the lunch, um, um, we don't do free lunch here, but good try.
[4352.90 --> 4357.10] So as long as we can bring sponsors in, we will comfortably cover our overhead is basically
[4357.10 --> 4358.18] where I was going with that.
[4358.18 --> 4362.16] Even, even like the square footage, the equipment, like all those things that you have to factor
[4362.16 --> 4363.26] into the cost of a show.
[4363.48 --> 4368.60] And I mean, if, if your standard was that they outperform like the later episodes of
[4368.60 --> 4370.44] NetLinked, it's already done that.
[4370.56 --> 4370.74] So.
[4371.40 --> 4371.68] Yeah.
[4371.72 --> 4374.02] I think there's a bit of a honeymoon period going on right now though.
[4374.14 --> 4376.76] Well, but it could continue forever perfectly.
[4377.30 --> 4378.90] It could continue forever perfectly.
[4379.26 --> 4381.12] I mean, honestly, I think we're going to get there.
[4381.12 --> 4386.62] I think, I think that not, I think we've actually gotten a lot of feedback already from community
[4386.62 --> 4389.68] members saying there really was a gap there.
[4390.26 --> 4392.06] NetLinked had a purpose.
[4392.44 --> 4394.62] This, this source fed style.
[4395.08 --> 4396.04] Tech news thing.
[4396.22 --> 4402.04] And I was kind of surprised when, when we stopped and people were like, there's no other like
[4402.04 --> 4406.80] really quick, like tech news shows about like, you know, centering on like PC stuff.
[4406.86 --> 4407.40] And there isn't.
[4407.44 --> 4410.24] And a lot of people are trying to hit the 10 minute minimum and all this kind of stuff.
[4410.24 --> 4410.56] Yeah.
[4410.92 --> 4412.54] But we're not interested in that.
[4412.60 --> 4414.10] We've never cared about the 10 minute minimum.
[4414.40 --> 4418.16] A lot of people, we've released videos that are 10 minutes and one second or whatever.
[4418.38 --> 4422.32] And a lot of people are like, aha, in the comments.
[4422.54 --> 4422.84] Gotcha.
[4423.06 --> 4426.08] And I'm kind of sitting there going, you don't understand how this works.
[4426.28 --> 4430.98] The 10 minute mark is only important if you run a mid roll AdSense spot.
[4431.46 --> 4432.18] And we don't.
[4432.18 --> 4432.98] And we don't.
[4433.08 --> 4433.32] So.
[4433.42 --> 4433.90] My ride is leaving.
[4433.90 --> 4434.44] So it doesn't matter.
[4434.56 --> 4435.32] Oh, your ride is leaving.
[4435.42 --> 4436.06] I need to leave.
[4436.06 --> 4436.80] You can go.
[4437.48 --> 4438.86] Thank you for joining us.
[4438.96 --> 4439.86] Thanks for having me.
[4439.94 --> 4440.16] Yeah.
[4440.40 --> 4441.06] This is cool.
[4441.18 --> 4441.84] It's been fun.
[4442.54 --> 4443.30] Can I do this again?
[4443.56 --> 4445.04] I remember where I was going with that.
[4445.22 --> 4446.52] He's very multi-talented.
[4446.66 --> 4451.68] So we brought him in knowing that he was multi-talented thinking that we would just find.
[4452.70 --> 4453.08] We'd find.
[4453.18 --> 4454.52] I'm just like a natural on camera.
[4454.72 --> 4457.44] I know everything that you need to do on like a set.
[4457.52 --> 4457.96] Thank you.
[4458.42 --> 4459.06] Thank you.
[4459.06 --> 4461.60] So right now.
[4461.60 --> 4467.24] His time is not completely occupied just by writing TechLinked and hosting it.
[4467.30 --> 4469.66] And in some cases, he won't even be hosting it.
[4469.82 --> 4471.46] It's only a three times a week show.
[4471.64 --> 4474.46] And I'll probably be hosting somewhere between a third and half of them.
[4474.92 --> 4477.02] Riley will be doing between a third and half of them.
[4477.48 --> 4479.34] And we might have other people jump in.
[4479.42 --> 4480.62] James has expressed interest.
[4480.74 --> 4482.00] Colton has expressed interest.
[4482.00 --> 4485.40] And we'd like to have it actually be quite diverse.
[4486.50 --> 4488.94] Maybe even Luke would come back and host an episode.
[4488.94 --> 4489.16] That would be cool.
[4489.40 --> 4489.82] I'd like to.
[4490.02 --> 4491.62] Especially on certain topics.
[4491.78 --> 4492.54] So yeah.
[4492.54 --> 4497.40] So I have two things in the chat that I'm going to pull from archival stuff.
[4497.56 --> 4499.86] One, someone was like, oh my God, Luke is back.
[4500.04 --> 4500.90] That's confusing.
[4501.96 --> 4503.88] He's literally on WAN show every week.
[4503.90 --> 4505.46] I've been here the whole time.
[4506.02 --> 4506.50] Pretty much.
[4506.84 --> 4509.06] The other one was, is Riley Luke's replacement?
[4509.48 --> 4510.68] That's been asked a whole bunch of times.
[4511.34 --> 4518.94] So right now, in terms of actual hosting on LTT, I am on the fence.
[4518.94 --> 4523.02] You will see Luke host another LTT before you will see Riley.
[4523.12 --> 4523.84] In fact, how's that going?
[4524.42 --> 4524.60] Good.
[4525.40 --> 4526.66] It keeps changing.
[4527.42 --> 4527.70] Right.
[4527.86 --> 4529.46] I can probably just talk about it.
[4529.54 --> 4530.00] Yeah, sure.
