      Getting 5 mil views on 7 mil subscribers is pretty insane by current standards. It's incredibly rare nowadays for subscriber count to directly translate to views. Smosh has 26 mil subscribers now, and 5 mil is still a better performing video. Pewdiepie has over 100 mil subs, but a fraction of that in views.

    2013 was definitely the last time that TH-cam was under one community umbrella and then 2014 was the transitional year where everyone started to branch off into niches. Between 2014 and 2016 I mainly stuck to the Let’s Play community with Game Grumps, Markiplier, Jackscepticeye, and a lot of the more niche gaming channels.

    I feel like Ian and Anthony don’t give themselves enough credit pioneering TH-cam! Like the fact that they had Lunchtime with Smosh and Mail Time with Smosh which is literally modern TH-cam today just mukbangs and creating super editing content of just hanging out with your friends. It’s so entertaining! And they pioneered it! I feel like if they did just vlog style stuff of them trying out food and going on target buying sprees it would completely FILL MY FANGIRL HEART. Like seeing Ian and Anthony just hanging out as best friends like they did back in the day would be crazy! And a lot of the new stuff today is just that. Plus Podcasts, drama channels, and etc. Keep the sketch comedy obviously but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING BACK LUNCHTIME WITH SMOSH

    I personally feel most/best connected to the yt era of 2008-2011 but I can't pinpoint why. I, too, feel like 2013 was kinda the beginning of the end for "yt innocence" or fandom culture as we knew it generally, it then being really truly changed (and partly horribly so) in 2015/2016.

    I miss TH-cam and just the internet as a whole back then, it was more wild west and a detachments from The real world, now it feels like the internet is an extension of the real world, which honestly doesn't make room for a lot of escapism, I just also hate how there's a lot of negativity due to TH-cam and the internet, people use Fame as a jumping off point to be a jerk to people that they they see on the street. Harassment has become content which is just devastating

    And if you ask me, the golden age of TH-cam was around 2008-2017, though it has seen a recovery in recent years, especially with Minecraft making a comeback in 2019 and you guys reuniting last year.

    I feel like majority of people my age (22) had the same exposure to TH-cam as I did. I was probably aware of TH-cam around 2010. Occasionally going on it, but never doing much in depth stuff. It wasn’t until 2012/2013 that I feel like a lot people jumped on board and became consistent viewers on the platform. As I remember always watching Smosh, Vanossgaming, and RayWilliamJohnson, Ryan Higa, etc. pretty crazy to see how different the platform is now and how a lot of creators have either dipped, been arrested/canceled, or moved onto bigger things from the platform. I feel like 2012/2013 was the Big Bang for TH-cam gathering such a massive audience and being taken seriously. As meme culture became very relevant as well, the internet was becoming a breeding ground.

    51:55 Very random but not that random story. When I was about 9 years old (in 2013 funnily enough), the kids on my cul de sac were a big community and everyone would hang out. I was playing with a neighbours toddler and lifted her over my head and accidentally fell back on my ass and was extremely lucky to land with my head right where the curb dropped and neither of us had a scratch on us. Didn't stop me from crying and feeling overwhelmed with guilt.
