1.25 million subscribers, or thereabouts. I didn't do a Q&A for 1 million, so here we are.

A lot of people are asking about music, and I think the reason for that is that the algorithm

0:12.8

has recently picked up my music YouTube channel, which is a thing that exists. I think this is because

0:19.3

I was recently on Jubilee, debating 25 Christians,

0:22.8

and it did really well. It got 4.5 million views in just over a week or something, and I think a lot

0:28.4

of people are searching me up as a result of that, and one effect has been that my music channel

0:33.5
