Joe Folly, welcome to the show.

Oh, thank you very much, glad to be here.

Unsolicited advice on YouTube, a channel that I must have discovered about a year ago, well you haven't

been doing it that long, it must have.

No, no, no, I mean I, I've been doing it on and off for a little bit since last January, but only really

started to post regularly sort of May Juneish, and then only started doing philosophy videos in like October.

Yeah, like it's been a it's been really good fun actually.

I mean, you know, it's it's good. I get to like read for a living.

It's you know a phenomenal stroke of luck.

Yeah, you know if you ask kids these days what they want to do when they're older,

they've stopped saying I want to be a singer or a doctor or a lawyer or whatever.

Now they say they want to be youtubers.

That's like the job that kids say they want to me.

It certainly takes me a while to, I think maybe I'm the opposite. It takes me well to own up to being a

you when I meet someone you, I'm sort of like it becomes

this kind of like you know kind of half looking at the ground ever so slightly ashamed

so I actually kind of I do a bit of YouTube I make I make. I find myself telling people like, I don't say I'm a YouTube, I say things like, oh, I make videos on

YouTube.

Yes, no, I, I think I probably, I probably, I always coat it with something like, oh yeah, do these like philosophy monologues and I put them on and it's like and then eventually the other person the conversation would go, so you're a

YouTube. I'm an educator of sorts. I think that's probably got a lot to do with the

connotations when someone says you tuber you think of like Jake Paul you know no no disrespect to

no no no no no I don't try to try to I'm not sure I have like a firm grasp of who Jake Paul is but like is he a boxing person?
