YouTube Rewind 2015: Hate Me Now!

This year I was wondering what might happen in the YouTube Rewind. I actual wasn't sure. I knew the dress would show up somehow. I figures Shia Labeouf would have his influence. I was almost certain it would have some kind of 10 year throw back. But other than that I wasn't sure what would happen. Sadly YouTube must have felt the same way.







I have been watching YouTube more than ever this year. Joel Sexton (Host of the Indie Intellect Talk Show youtube.com/indieintellect ) and I have described our selves as students of the platform. We have listened to every episode of Rhett and Link's Ear Biscuits studied famous YouTuber's growth patterns and watched way more youtube than is healthy. So we were both excited to see this years Rewind. Sadly it was a lot of build up for not much of a performance.

YouTube Rewind has a lot on it's hands. It is trying to figure out what were the most important things to highlight not the most viewed. It's also not trying to figure out what's most important to the world but to the active YouTube subscriber. The ones that go to Tyler Oakley sleep overs and Pentatonix concerts and knew about Miranda Sings long before she ever showed up on Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. With that said they missed the mark. 2015's rewind already has 108 thousand dislikes and its only 4 days into its release. 2014's rewind only has 59 thousand dislikes and it has had a year to grow that number.

There is an up side for YouTube though. It currently sits at the most liked video as well with 1.4 million likes. 2012 through 2014 had 1 to 1.1 million likes. That means 300 million more people liked the 2015 rewind video.

But it's easy to like something. Likes are cheep. You really have to try hard to get those dislikes. Did YouTube deserve all the hate? Was this a reaction to YouTube Red? What do you think? Let me know in the comments below. Where did YouTube go wrong??

What's the Deal With Conspiracies?

Some of you might know that I own a YouTube and Podcast alongside Joel Sexton (@Yeddish on Twitter) called Indie Intellect. We recently released our second conspiracy theory video called "3 Conspiracies You Need to Know About!" and previously had made a more controversial one called "Are You Being Manipulated"
As we release these videos there is something I want to emphasize. Conspiracy theories are not just a fun pastime and a crazy mans way of thinking. What they really are, are ways of processing the world outside of what make sense or what has been told to us. Sometimes these ideas are just crazy but sometimes there is a hint of truth to them. Is worth looking into? One man named Syed Adnan would say so.
In 1999 Adnan was convicted of murder and until recently that was fact. Thanks to the popular podcasts Serial, Undisclosed and Truth and Justice (formerly known as Serial Dynasty) more and more people have been discovering that Syed Adnan was more than likely set up by the Baltimore police department. 15 years after being put into jail and Adnan is facing a retrial with a real possibility of being released. Why? Because one person decided to look into this crazy conspiracy theory!
Sometimes it's hard to believe these things but I implore you to look into those three podcasts to hear a real crazy conspiracy that is proof of why you really always need to question everything you hear.

Here are our two videos.

Red Leaf

Sometimes I get a hint of it. I pore it in my coffee sometimes and some will get on my finger. If I lick it off I then can not think of anything I would rather do than down a spoon full. I dream of the north and pancakes and waffles... but then I remember.. it's not what I think it is. It's only the fructose of some cultivated weed pretending to be the sap of the majestic trees towering over northern Americas. The fulfilment of the promised land flowing with milk and honey that Columbus dreamt of in 1492. Honey tainted and honey pure..
It stands on it's own and the villain in the South dressed in sheep's clothing.. dressed in red leaves. Ligning our market shelves screaming "I AM WHAT YOU THINK I AM" and we know it's lies. but it's still sweet.. majestic. A fulfillment of prophecies not spoken to us. But we receive it."

Someday I may find myself happy with pancakes as innocent as baby cubs bathed in your essence. Till then this thick substance will hold me captive both reminding me of your glory and it's fassod.

RE: Do Men Hate Women?

So here is the original post by ThisOtherGuy. I love his outlook passion and intellect on life issues! If I was you I would subscribe to his channel for more thought provoking ideas in the future! Below his video is my video in response to him. But What do you think? Do men hate women? Why do women hate men? Are they justified? Let me know in the comments on this blog!
Just incase you are wondering we did not record in the same room.. but that might be the same cabinet?
