| So I'm going through a kind of transitional period at the moment with what I'm doing because I've got quite a few interesting projects that are lined up that are taking a lot of work to get off the ground. | |
| But believe me, you'll be the first to know when they are ready. | |
| But in the meantime, people keep asking me, could you bring back this week in Stupid? | |
| And I was thinking about it, and it's a lot of work to dedicate an entire day to do it, basically. | |
| And so I thought it might be easier if I just did a sort of daily This Week in Stupid segment about whatever it was that I'd been researching that day. | |
| Because keeping up with current events is a huge part of my job, as you might expect. | |
| And I spend a lot of time doing it. | |
| And it would be nice to be able to more easily just upload that part of what I would do in This Week in Stupid. | |
| And if I do it every day, it's just easy, especially if I've got a fairly quick workthrough, which I have on my new channel called A CAD Daily. | |
| I've been trying it out. | |
| It's essentially the same kind of model I had on the Thinkry, which was never meant to be for the kind of This Week in Stupid replacement. | |
| So this is. | |
| This is what I'll be doing instead of This Week in Stupid, because a sort of like, you know, 10 to 15 minute segment on whatever it is I'd like to talk about in regards to what's going on is a lot more manageable for me as I'm doing other things in the background. | |
| And so the question is, what will this channel be for? | |
| Well, I hope it's become apparent that this channel will become for long form content, like the Epstein stuff, which I felt was worth your time. | |
| And the next long form video I'm going to finish is the Demolition Man one, the politics of Demolition Man, because I think it's important and timely and worth doing. | |
| So that'll be that. | |
| So for anyone backing me on Subscribestar, I will still, of course, be making content. | |
| I just want you to be able to know where to find it. | |
| And like I said, I have a few other projects in the works about things that should up the game and push us to the next level, is effectively the way I'm looking at it. | |
| Because there's a good chance we'll be able to find backers for what we're going to do. | |
| And we'll probably do a crowdfund as well. | |
| But if we can raise a good chunk of money, then we can do a lot of good things. | |
| This is the reason for the delay in the Good Christians as well. | |
| There are actually many reasons to have to do this. | |
| A lot of them are from business perspective as well. | |
| And tax perspectives, things like that. | |
| But also because I really do think that YouTube has got their thumb on the scales against this channel now. | |
| Ever since it was demonetized, they've refused to remonetize it, obviously. | |
| And I think it downranks it quite significantly. | |
| And so it's like, okay, YouTube, fine. | |
| I'll go and do something else with my time as well, shall I? | |
| And so, yes, I think this is going to be a way for you guys to be able to get the content that you were looking for. | |
| Because I know I disappointed a lot of people when I said I don't have time to do it. | |
| Because I really didn't have time to do it. | |
| But if I can do a small amount each day, then that's a lot easier. | |
| And you guys will still get the same end effect. | |
| I think this is a good solution because then you guys get what you want. | |
| I still get to make the content that I want to make. | |
| And I think we'll all benefit. | |
| And when this new thing is done, it should be very nice. | |
| And I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised. | |
| But I'm not going to spoil anything until then. | |
| So in the meantime, I will leave a link to a CAD daily in the description box and in the comments. |
