Thank you, Dr. I see this channel blowing up in a few months. A few hashtags could help in the description. Best of luck.

Thank you so much for the encouragement and kind words! I'm working on being consistent with posting videos right now but that's a great suggestion about the hashtags and I'll work on integrating that. Thank you!
