YouTube Removing Dislike Count, Updating Monetization, and More (BSP-255)
On episode 255 of the BSP, I discuss the announcement that YouTube is removing the dislike count from public view and what this means for creators and viewers, as well as a quick update to the YouTube monetization policy. Then I talk about ’starting microphones’ for ’starting streamers’ and a whole lot more.
On episode 207 of the BSP we avoid all discussion of the Corona Virus Covid-19. Instead we discuss some activities people can enjoy while spending time at home, I provide an introduction to nudibranchs, I share 9 of my Favorite Films that are available to stream for Free, and I also include a tutorial on how to EQ a headset mic to sound like a studio mic, and how to connect a mic to an instrument input.

On episode 290 of the BSP, I discuss a comment telling me that it's funny that I criticize people who are more popular than me, and then I share my thoughts on why copyright claims lead to 100% of revenue being taken and then share my entire microphone journey from why I bought my first one to why I started reviewing them.
Paid Promo Selected because I received M90 Pro X from Beyer. They did not pay me to make this video, they did not request that I make this video. I simply used it for this podcast and because of that I had to mark paid promo.
