In this episode of Upload. The hosts start off with an anecdote of Midgeman being recognised by someone who works with a sponsor who reached out to him. We jump from that into the Timberborn sponsor both him and Lionheart have been approached by, the conversation goes into creator agencies and which ones have been a pleasure to recently work with. Midgeman discusses Youtube's new announcements and updates regarding mobile formats and the two give tips on how the creators can capitalise on such updates.
Lionheart shares his collaborative dream regarding a tee shirt campaign company start up, which has been in the early stage of development for roughly 6 years. And how a lot of merchandise websites take advantage of creators and do not give back a fair revenue for the goods they put up. Whereas Lionhearts future platform will aim at allowing creators have that business freedom and control.
Finally the conversation steers towards Lionheart paying for verification on Twitter and having his own personal impersonator on Discord. And how that links to staying vigilant, emphasizing the need for creators to protect their identities from scams, and to get in touch with brans/people who offer potential sponsorships to double check them.

Today, Midgeman and Lionheartx10 started off the podcast by coming up with an ingenious idea to keep mic placement. Then discuss the rise of multi-streaming and the shift in viewership from Twitch to YouTube and how creators such as Ludwig feel about multi-streaming for growth. They analyse data from Q1 and Q2 of 2024, highlighting the increase in hours watched on YouTube and the challenges Twitch faces in terms of discoverability and VOD content. They explore the benefits and drawbacks of multi-streaming, including the potential for increased reach and discoverability, as well as the challenges of managing multiple platforms. They also touch on the importance of analytics and data in evaluating the success of multi-streaming efforts. However, acknowledging that multi-streaming is not always for everyone and it is absolutely okay to not want to fully explore that, and if you do, its okay to also not want to continue with it.

We begin the episode with an in-depth discussion of going on a fish and chip tour around the UK, visiting different fish and chip shops and reviewing them. Then hopping into persistent copyright strikes on YouTube seemingly pushed in by bots. How Lionheartx10 has been dealing with it and the communication he's had with the Youtube Partner Program customer service. The two hosts reminisce about the changes in YouTube's copyright policies over the years and the challenges faced by creators in dealing with copyright claims. We touch on not only the Copyright claims shown in the Youtube dashboard but also Lionhearts experience of having his Thumbnails copied by a creator. They also share insights on how the YouTube algorithm works and offer tips for maximising video performance, analysing various graphs and whether or not paying for publicity on a Youtube video is essentially worth it.
