I appreciate seeing the link to the debut episode, and surely I am having some difficulties imagining how such a series could be sustainable in video format - because of course there is some good content, yet presenting it in form of video will be interesting to see if sustainable.... and yeah, I am not going to poo poo the effort because I had already noticed that there have been some proposals about how to accomplish such.

Yeah, I kind of would agree that lower production usually isn't expected in the beginning of the channel, at least several years ago. However, to be able to compete nowadays on Youtube specifically you need at least acceptable level, but the higher the quality the better the response. The bar for content on Youtube has been set very high, which is a little mind boggling considering all the low quality stuff on it especially anything with any kind of substance, but high quality production seems to be of a higher priority than the actual substance behind the content.

I'm used to seeing channels go from low quality production, but very good quality then as the money starts to roll in it'll go to higher production, but then sacrificing quality of content since they cater to their audience rather than their original goal.

Although, I have to give props to the effort shown in the early videos, and I'm hoping it absolutely continues, and sees success along with it. Though, I think its natural to worry about whether the high bar initially set is going to hinder the amount of videos being released, and therefore viewer retention. Though, hopefully as time goes on the team behind the Bitcointalkshow will be able to adjust, and find a nice middle ground.

Even though I feel that I have no real quibble with your suggestion that some level of production quality would be preferred in order to create enough interest in order to keep any kind of ongoing production going, and likely I was making some kind of different point about the value of persistence - and suggesting that even choosing to have video (at all) contributes to multiples more work... so in that regard, in my thinking if the amount of work is a lot, then it becomes harder to just pump out content on an ongoing basis to achieve a kind of persistence that also likely would allow for abilities to riff there-in, too.

As far as either audio bitcoin podcasts or video content (podcasts or otherwise), I surely classify myself as a consumer, and I have quite a bit of non-interest in terms of getting involved in participating in putting out content in either of those modes (even though I have had some people who are quite persistent in suggesting that I should get involved in something like that, including in real life.. ).. Anyhow, I applaud people who are able to put out decent content whether video or audio or both, and for sure I have learned a lot about bitcoin from those various mediums...and also helped me in my own understanding and content sharing attempts through participating in this forum.

For sure there should be some learning along the way regarding whether some content presents well in video and how to make the content interesting, and surely there could be some thought about how much work it might take to make certain kinds of content that had originally been a bunch of nerds typing on a forum become interesting in a video format.. which surely makes it more difficult to riff when those kinds of challenges are presented right on the face of the matter.....
