    Or they made good edited youtube videos and then they starting chasing the streaming trend like Critikal and other youtubers I used to watch. Sorry I want to watch a single 10-30 min video once or twice a week and not hours of unscripted rambling. The only person I can watch do that is Nothernlion but even then I don’t watch most of his content anyway.

      hours of unscripted rambling

      i actually really enjoy long form interviews. i watch 5 hour interviews and want more, but not everyone can host them and only a certain kind of content is good long form.

        I haven’t watched a streamer yet that could pull it off except NL. People get into this young with no education or lived life outside of streaming and honestly it’s a pain listening to them try to be relatable to talk about something for hours. Even NL starts getting tiring after the 5000th take on peloton.

          Podcasters are usually better at this than streamers. There’s a Canadian political podcast I follow that’s great for hour-plus interviews. Really good for “politics in complete sentences” stuff.

          I’m not sure what a “steamer” is. Is it video game related only?

          The content that I watch is for 40+. The example that I was thinking about was of Mormon stories podcast host. He has a phd in psychology. Hearing him interview ex Mormons is really interesting. I always learn something about myself during 5 hour interviews.

            Streamers usually people who play games for 4-8+ hours almost every day with a face cam and a running chat. Twitch is the main website for these people.

        LTT’s WAN show pulls of (maybe 2/3rds the time) 3-4 hour streams with only outlines of recent news and a live-feed of merch messages as direction.

      Adam Ragusea is the worst for this.

      Title: interesting topic.

      Video: 3 hours of rambling with five minutes of addressing interesting topic.

      I could hardly stand his actual videos before but at least he experimented and showed some conventions to be useless traditions but recently it’s really been garbage long form rambling.
