Thoughts on the Focus on Streams/Youtube this Year
My feelings about this year's focus on Youtube and streams are a bit conflicted.
First, I'm bummed there was not a 20-make-it-stick tour. Feels like there was lots of potential there for some kind of live in-person throwing hijinks.
I have no evidence to back this up, but my guess is that there wasn't a tour this year due to the state of the world /how expensive touring is, and that Super McElroy Brothers was planned to be a kind of "replacement" for tour income. Which makes sense, but I wonder how successful it's been.
Second, I'm a big fan of clubhouse when it's not a book report, and I dig me some Six Thumbs One Heart, usually. However, with the other streams, I feel like they always play the same game one or two weeks too long. RV There Yet was really fun for a few weeks, but around week 4 or 5 I was over it.
Third, I also don't really vibe with the solo streams, and I actually think they're overdoing it a little bit. I feel like Griffin is the best at them.
That being said, I LOVE Justin's mini-series on tech/how-to's (I forget what it's actually called, apologies).
Anyway - I guess I'm just curious how other people are feeling about this year's Youtube offerings.
