#243 Follow Creators, Not Crowds. My Response To Jake Frew

Send us Fan Mail Jake Frew's YouTube channel Jake Frew's Patreon page What would you choose if YouTube hid views and subscriber counts—hype or your own taste? I respond to Jake Frew's Patreon post about YouTube Metrics and Airline etiquette. I discuss a world without public metrics and trace how that shift might bring us back to trust, storytelling, and the simple power of word of mouth. From the Mona Lisa’s fame without a counter to the way a Spielberg credit earns an automatic watch, I explain why following a creator’s voice can be more satisfying than chasing whatever tops the charts. As for airline etiquette I talk about being a shades-up person most of the time, when it’s kind to drop them, why not reclining in tight cabins respects the person behind you, and how back-to-front boarding logic beats aisle gridlock. Add a few low-friction habits—slide over, don’t guard the aisle, stash bags fast—and everyone’s flight gets easier. I believe we should support the creators who earn your trust, whether that’s subscribing, sharing, or joining their Patreon. If this resonated, hit follow, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review with your take. Support the show I ♥ my podcast host @Buzzsprout.
