The Attic Breakdown Podcast

A podcast from three best friends who happen to be sisters, breaking down life and surviving life’s breakdowns.

@greg16676935420 @MattWallace888 Yeah, but maybe also he murders one chef for every round of golf he plays. You’ve really got to think this through.

@leqlercs but I could definitely believe this…

@leqlercs I mean…

@Cryptopimp661 @RealGregBoulden @CollinRugg @RNCResearch All we can control is how we respond to facts and lies.

@RealGregBoulden @CollinRugg @RNCResearch Yeah, he was talking about what ifs, and he obviously jumbled his words there at the end. He clearly was not claiming that he has cured cancer. There are plenty of legitimate things to complain about with Biden, just like there were with Trump. Let’s keep our criticisms fair.

@SportsSturm You're the real deal @SportsSturm, and we love you for it!

@Costco would do well to train their employees about how to treat kids with special needs (or any kids for that matter). My boy just wanted to enjoy a sample of the chocolate coconut bar without being shouted at about where his parent was. I was five feet from him, by the way.

@valentinavee I read this four times before I realized it wasn’t a metaphor!

@MattiHaapoja Gimme George Russell, but it’ll take a miracle for anybody to beat Max.

@johnnywharris The Greenland documentary you released today was outstanding! Beautiful and thought provoking!

@imPatrickT Cannot wait to see it!

We are about 5 episodes into season 1. The crash zooms and shaky handhelds that once vexed us now seem to make sense thanks to your breakdown. Keep doing what you are doing!

A long time ago a massively successful YouTuber told me to not check YouTube analytics until about a week after you upload.

I never listened. I thought they were crazy... but Friday I uploaded my Succession video and forced myself to not look at anything until this afternoon. Not knowing how it was doing was a bit weird but I ended up just sort of forgetting/ignoring that I put a video up. I also had to stop watching YouTube to avoid any notifications or success indications. A positive side effect of the experiment.

Typically I would obsess and refresh analytics constantly... I always overthink titles and thumbnails. Even if a video was doing well I would wonder "could it be doing better!?" - and if a video was underperforming I'd spend way too much time trying to "fix it".

I just finally opened YouTube studio and the video is doing amazing, but more importantly my weekend was free and clear from thinking about it. You work hard on your video. You upload. It makes more sense to spend time working on the next video and getting better at creating, instead of obsessing over the video you already made.

Who knows maybe if the video was bombing right now I would be trying to still "fix it" - but a lot of this shit is so up in the air and left to variables that you can't fully control... so why cloud your brain with this crap? I do think there's merit to optimizing thumbnails and titles but don't let it consume your entire week after putting a video up. 98% of the time it's a futile endeavour.

My plan now is to upload and just immediately begin work on the next video, and I'm going to try and force myself to not check analytics until I have a new video to upload. I think this will be a good exercise. I'm not even worried about comments, I will respond when I feel like it. You don't owe your audience an immediate answer or response. Make your own hours.

I suggest at the very least deleting YouTube studio from your phone and scheduling time to dive into analytics. It's better for your mental health and motivation.

This shit can drive you mad.

@imkofiyeboah @FlashForwardmg Really great camera for sure, but I’d struggle to trust it for paid video work with its single card slot and propensity for overheating. I do wish the a7s3 could get some of the video features that they just gave to the FX3, but I’m not holding my breath.

Didn’t know I needed to fear this until just now. Add that to the list.

Witnessed and recorded the most INSANE car crash yesterday, you can see Autopilot also swerve and avoid the rouge tire for me $TSLA
