[2187.94 --> 2193.90] I'm going to spend at least four hours a day weaving these lights together, making sure all the power strips are going all properly.
[2193.90 --> 2196.62] And, you know, you can have glowing fruit bowls.
[2198.12 --> 2198.52] Yeah.
[2198.70 --> 2199.14] I don't know.
[2199.22 --> 2206.70] Just communicate that to your audience and that will serve you a lot better doing it later on down the line once you have an established core audience.
[2206.82 --> 2207.96] Because then they won't leave.
[2208.46 --> 2213.94] They'll keep sharing it because they're an established core audience and you can actually survive more properly.
[2214.74 --> 2215.64] Question for you.
[2215.76 --> 2216.80] This was a great question.
[2216.96 --> 2218.74] I forget who asked it.
[2219.74 --> 2222.18] Would you allow Logan Paul on Floatplane?
[2222.18 --> 2223.86] Would you?
[2224.58 --> 2225.02] I don't know.
[2225.12 --> 2225.36] Would you?
[2225.36 --> 2227.26] You're the lead of partner management, whatever.
[2227.26 --> 2227.70] That's true.
[2227.80 --> 2228.08] I am.
[2228.10 --> 2229.46] But I'm curious to know what you think.
[2230.68 --> 2231.60] Knowing what you know.
[2231.92 --> 2234.98] Let's say that he goes, you know what?
[2235.18 --> 2236.74] Let's say he didn't post an apology.
[2236.94 --> 2237.82] That was super sincere.
[2238.20 --> 2240.58] Let's say that he was just like, you know what?
[2240.62 --> 2240.80] No.
[2240.90 --> 2243.18] I'm going to film dead bodies whenever I come across them.
[2243.70 --> 2244.64] Don't worry about it.
[2246.30 --> 2247.72] You're the public front.
[2249.72 --> 2250.08] Okay.
[2250.24 --> 2251.00] Well, you know what?
[2251.04 --> 2251.70] I have an opinion.
[2251.70 --> 2252.50] I'll throw my opinion.
[2252.76 --> 2254.70] I want to cheat and hear what you have to say first.
[2254.72 --> 2254.74] Sure.
[2254.74 --> 2255.32] No, no, no.
[2255.52 --> 2255.66] No.
[2255.76 --> 2257.48] You already gave away your hand.
[2258.02 --> 2258.24] What?
[2258.38 --> 2258.56] No.
[2258.64 --> 2259.58] Hit me with your opinion.
[2259.72 --> 2259.92] Nope.
[2260.14 --> 2260.92] You said you have one.
[2260.96 --> 2261.50] You have to do it.
[2263.40 --> 2265.36] I don't really care.
[2265.88 --> 2266.14] Okay.
[2266.14 --> 2267.70] Because in my opinion.
[2267.70 --> 2268.70] I don't know.
[2268.70 --> 2270.18] Who has to do it.
[2271.80 --> 2272.12] Never mind.
[2272.18 --> 2273.00] I don't tell you about it right now.
[2273.04 --> 2273.62] I don'tiller Institute in Washington.
[2273.62 --> 2275.26] This should all be handled, and how I think things, in general, should all be handled,
[2275.26 --> 2279.46] is that I don't, personally, in my personal morality, whatever, like the idea of the governmental
[2279.46 --> 2280.92] hand coming down and slapping.
[2281.68 --> 2282.08] Okay.
[2282.08 --> 2284.54] I would prefer that he joined the platform.
[2284.92 --> 2288.32] People saw that video and everyone unsubscribed.
[2289.24 --> 2292.52] And everyone stopped giving us money and stopped giving him money.
[2292.92 --> 2296.46] Here's the leader of partner management answer.
[2296.60 --> 2297.90] The answer is absolutely yes.
[2298.72 --> 2304.04] He would be allowed on the platform because here's the thing about the YouTube community guidelines.
[2304.18 --> 2308.88] So Flow Plains guidelines are basically along the lines of legality.
[2308.88 --> 2315.08] And there's nothing illegal about walking in that forest and filming something that you saw there.
[2315.08 --> 2316.20] Well, you're not allowed going off trail.
[2317.20 --> 2318.14] I don't think it's illegal.
[2318.28 --> 2320.54] I think it's just there's lots of signs advising you not to.
[2320.64 --> 2320.82] Okay.
[2321.06 --> 2321.24] Yeah.
[2322.48 --> 2328.86] So as far as I can tell, he didn't actually do anything illegal.
[2329.36 --> 2333.60] Because that's one thing you guys have to understand is when running – sorry, I'm going to interject for a moment.
[2333.86 --> 2336.88] When running Flow Plain, that's one of the reasons why it's its own company.
[2337.14 --> 2337.42] Yes.
[2337.42 --> 2341.60] Is because our opinions and Linus Media Group's opinions don't matter.
[2342.50 --> 2343.96] We're running the platform.
[2344.28 --> 2345.20] I think it's gross.
[2345.60 --> 2346.62] I don't like it either.
[2346.86 --> 2347.86] I'm not cool with it.
[2348.14 --> 2348.46] Me neither.
[2348.90 --> 2350.76] But that is not my call to make.
[2351.06 --> 2363.42] And if Flow Plains – if Flow Plains objective is to be the not evil overlord, then ultimately we have to allow –
[2363.42 --> 2363.76] Okay.
[2363.90 --> 2369.60] Because Flow Plains itself is not going to be a broader community in the same sense that YouTube is.
[2369.70 --> 2369.96] Correct.
[2369.96 --> 2375.24] So Flow Plains will be individual creators with their own communities.
[2375.24 --> 2380.42] And if his community is fine with it, which fascinatingly –
[2380.42 --> 2381.00] They seem to be.
[2381.00 --> 2382.10] They seem to be.
[2382.10 --> 2390.38] It wasn't until this went viral and kind of spread beyond his subscribers that people started sitting up and taking notice of how effed up it was.
[2390.38 --> 2403.78] And if his community is cool with it, then ultimately we can just not watch it, not look at it, and kind of hope for the best.
[2403.78 --> 2409.90] And like one thing about Flow Plains, if you're subscribed to this dude and you're like, wow, I really don't like that.
[2410.00 --> 2410.98] I don't respect him anymore.
[2411.28 --> 2414.02] I really dislike this content.
[2414.20 --> 2422.60] And you don't want to see it in your feed anymore, stop actively giving that person money and it won't show up in your feed anymore ever.
[2424.02 --> 2424.58] Nice timing.
[2424.68 --> 2424.92] Yeah.
[2424.92 --> 2425.54] That was good.
[2425.76 --> 2426.12] Hell yeah.
[2426.42 --> 2428.10] Because that's how the platform's done.
[2428.10 --> 2436.88] We aren't going to make – I'm going to actively pursue people coming on the platform, and I have, that I like and that I respect because I want them to be on the platform.
[2437.00 --> 2438.60] People are asking if we would advertise it.
[2438.64 --> 2439.30] It's a great question.
