POLITICAL RANT: How Much Truth Can You Handle? What's Going on in The World?
This is the third in a series of videos about what a YouTuber newbie learns quickly. So, not as a successful YouTube Magnate, but as a guy just a bit ahead of anyone who's just started or will be starting shortly.

"10 Tips to Becoming a Successful YouTube Channel in Just 10 Weeks!"
https://youtu.be/gkOognouVh4
My channel is 16 years old but I never did much but upload unedited single-file videos over the years, less than 200 of them. That got about 18,000 watch hours from 1/2 million views of 1.6 million impressions. My focus was my blog, FreeTheAnimal.com, 19 years in the maintaining, with over 5,000 posts published.
A bit less than 3 months ago, I decided to take on YouTube in earnest and have published about 70 videos in as many days.
These videos are about the extreme amounts I've learned in the process.

10 Tips to Becoming a Successful YouTube Channel in Just 10 Weeks!
Don't get the wrong idea. I'm a beginner too.
...Even though my YouTube Channel is 16 years old.
But I was never serious about it. Under 200 total videos in that 16 years, under 20,000 total watch hours and 1/2 million views.
Just under 10 weeks ago I decided to get serious and this is a rundown of the many things I've learned in such a short time that has me well on the way to monetization.
See my previous video where I put a bunch of editing tricks into practice.

Seize Life; The Best Life. Where Can You Find It?
While this one is a bit of a ramble, the theme of it is encapsulated in the title. I'm at times overcome with how good I have it here in this particular niche of Thailand. It gives me a perspective on struggle. Life is a struggle for all and the financial aspect of it is a struggle for most.
What better, then, to find a place you love, where the struggles take on a different character because you may find that you're struggling FOR something and not just to keep getting along, ever breathing. Just breathing.

Demanding Displays of Respect: Is it Harmful to Our Self Esteem?
When you truly respect someone or something as a reflection of values you hold, this is normal, rational, healthy, and uplifting.
But what if respect is demanded toward people, things, ideas, institutions, etc., that you don't particularly value; or worse, run counter to your own values?
Is taking a neutral stance often seen as disrespectful?

Barefoot Walking: More Nerves in Feet than in Genitals? Is it Arousing?
I've been barefoot walking since 2008, but when my dogs got too old for the 3-mile walks in 2016, I stopped being avid about it. Plus, living here in Thailand offers lots of opportunity to just BE barefoot and when protected, it's generally flip-flops or sandals. I haven't worn regular shoes in nearly 3 years.
It is true, incidentally, that feet have more nerve endings than genitals...
https://www.simardfootclinic.com/feet-facts
...You'll have to watch the video to hear how I characterize that.
And with any luck, some of you will give it a try and struggle through initially, until you adapt. Ultimately, you want to feel good/better and barefooting when possible is one of those lifeways that contributes to that.

The "Sapient Paradox." What Is It? What Does It Mean For You?
Here's A Crazy Idea.
What if our big homo Sapiens brains were worthless for 190,000 of the 200,000 years we've been around, prior to Civilization in the archeological record that begins 10-12,000 years ago. Not only worthless, but at a cost, because big brains require a lot of energy.
Or, did they provide advantages that don't show up in the archeological record?
This is an intro to a post, the link to which will be here once posted.

Can The Male-To-Female Ratio Of YouTube Viewers Predict Your Like
Curiously, my blog at FreeTheAnimal.com enjoys a 58:42 ratio of male:female readers according to Google analytics—close enough to even—while my YouTube Channel used to be 92:8 and has recently declined in gender demographics to 98:2.
What gives? In this video, I pick away at some elements.

What Benefit To You By Going To Bed Early, Then Rising Early?
Here's what happened to me...
I went to bed at 9pm, then got up at 2.30am. I edited and published a few videos, caught up on email, wrote a bit on my drafts at FreeTheAnimal.com, and so forth. At 6am I was ready to hit the road for coffee and the morning 7 km walk, #barefoot. I shot 3 videos during the walk:

What's The Right Chic Relationships For You? Well, What's Your Age, Life Experience, and Context?
A short episode under 6 minutes, yet packed with a lot of things to think about in terms of establishing your parameters of relationships with women before you even get into one.
It's all about the context of your life. Young and just starting out, or mature in age and experience, having seen it all.
Drop comments about aspects you'd like me to expand upon, as I don't think I'm done with this topic.

Does Holding Grudges Against Others Hurt You More Than It Hurts Them?
Today I contrast the natural behavior of myself and my family with what I've seen and experienced all my life.
Lots of people seem to like to hold grudges against others, often for inconsequential things in the wide scope of all things.
It's a mystery to me. To me, harboring such disdain, hate even, is self-destructive and is not a healthy form of self-defense or self-protection. Could it be a spiteful form narcissism and unbridled self-importance?

The Secret For a Man: How To Get That Initial Positive Visceral Reaction From a Woman
This was something I was informed of, but didn't think much about because I didn't have the problem.
Then, within a short time, I developed it and noticed a tremendous difference. Chicks were not approaching me or behaving towards me as I've enjoyed all my life. Because of the very short timeframe, i was able to form a hypothesis as to the cause and took action immediately.
And to confirm that this secret was precisely the root of the problem, once I fixed the problem, all went back to normal.
CHAPTERS:
0:00 The manly motorcycle ride to the windmill, no helmet
2:52 The introduction to the talk
3:50 Going it manly barefoot
4:15 What gets women viscerally when they see a man, positive or negative?
4:33 Shout out to Alexander Cortes
5:40 The secret revealed
6:03 Absolutely true! And from PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
6:13 So here's the story part 1
8:54 The laboratory

21 Topics: CBS Survivor to Tinder Secrets...Mickey & Minnie...Rosary Beads...The Planet...and more
In this my most complex video edit yet where I use 2 camera angles on the motorcycle drive, I talk about general things on the drive over, then after coffee, I discus:
- CBS' Survivor Star Russell Hantz and how meeting and interviewing him motivated me to do more video (interview here: https://youtu.be/kAAS-q5ipYs )

Tinder Serendipity With The Girls Of Thailand
In this episode I explain how to get better results with dating apps, in particular, referencing my experience in Thailand—very rich noble hunting grounds—where it pays to be gentlemanly with the Thai ladies.
And if you do it right, serendipity can happen...such as in the little bit crazy story of my happenstance encounter last night.
Mentioned in the video, Anthony Colpo. Here's the referenced post with the section on dating apps.

Improvements To FreeTheAnimal.com That May Tickle Your Fancy
This is a video summary of this public-access post at FreeTheAnimal.com:
I Interview CBS' Survivor Star Russell Hantz at the Beach in Thailand
I'm a dude who writes a blog I've named Free the Animal and last evening, an animal came out of the dark in a girl-bar and introduced himself to me as Russell Hantz.
Because we're at the southern tip of the island of Phuket in Thailand, it was so out of context that it took me a moment to come to grips with the fact that I'm face-to-face with one of my top fav Survivor competitors.
We had a completely uncensored, unfiltered, raw, and raucous convo this afternoon at Nai Harn beach.
Russell has a YouTube channel with about 41K subscribers as of this minute.
For my stuff, go to... https://FreeTheAnimal.com Here's my specific blog post about this video.

My Super Easy No Alcohol For 4 Weeks
It has been a blast and will continue. After many failures over 2 decades of drinking too much too often, I got all the elements in place.
The topic of this one is "time dilation" once you stop the booze.
Week 3 of EASY No-Alcohol; an Update With a Surprise Pretty Thai Lady Guest
I had such a great afternoon with this Thai Lady Sureerat ("Sirylat"), nickname "Oh," that I invited her to lunch and then over to Nai Harn Beach to shoot my non-alcohol 3-week update.

My EASY Freedom From Alcohol After 2 Decades of Failure
I didn't start drinking too much too often until the early 2000s, two decades ago. It gradually became more and more over the next decade until about 2011—11 years ago—where it became much too much every day, usually.
Many times I tried to stop or curtail, always doomed to failure. It wasn't until I created the right environment and right mental attitude to make it easy and ensure my success.
This is my story. This episode in video.

The Great Recap of My Week 1 of Easy Freedom From Alcohol (after many failures)
View "My Super Easy No-Alcohol Method" Playlist For All The Videos.
Week 1 is in the can and though it's just a week, what distinguishes it is the absolute ease and downright joy with which I did it. I have tried many times in the past and it was miserable. ALWAYS thinking of ways to justify 'just a bit.' Even after 6 weeks or 2 months. Failure was always the outcome. I guess when you do it enough times, one day you get all the critical elements to align and it's easy. I had nothing that could be called a craving even though I'm in multiple bars every night. I don't even think about or consider it. It's unthinkable. I've lost nothing at all and gained a great deal in just a week. There's a companion post to this with 8 delicious-looking food pics at amazing prices, since this started by my total loss of appetite over many months.
Here are my previous posts, each with a companion video:

"Alcoholic" is a meaningless, stigmatizing term serving moneyed interests | How & Why in 11 minutes
The term is useless and meaningless. I cover it all in short order. More importantly, I provide objective, basic, and fundamental terms that truly define alcohol problems and issues that are easy to understand and require no "support" industry making millions off it, keeping people perpetually in need of their "services."
