- In the first of a new series, we will be covering history's most disturbing illnesses. In this first one, we will be covering syphilis, from its disputed origin to the stigma for those who were afflicted. We would really appreciate your feedback if you would like to see more and if you have any particular disease you think we should cover next.

The human race never ceases to both amaze and horrify me at the same time. We are, without any doubt, our own worst enemy.
We need JESUS
@@carolemafotsing9987 Yes, we most absolutely need JESUS!!!
Jesus wants your soul
Jesus 😍😇
@@carolemafotsing9987 I do have Jesus. I am indigenous Navajo and Pueblo Native American! I abhor the things white people did to my ancestors. Columbus and his men are in hell.
PLEASE consider doing the pont-saint-esprit 1951 poisonings. A town of people hallucinated absolute nonsense for days, people jumped into the river because they thought they were being attacked by bees, one guy thought he was an airplane/dragonfly (depending on your reference source) and jumped out a 2 story window. He lived btw, legend. And bunches more, it’s definitely worth a video
Wtf
@@ILoveLuhaidan The CIA managed to get LSD into this French towns bread (They put it in the water or sprayed the crops, I cant remember now) They did this to test the effects of LSD I think, probably under the MK Ultra umbrella.
Regarding the claim of it being cia caused
“But American academic Professor Steven Kaplan, who published a book in 2008 on the Pont-Saint-Esprit incident, insists that neither ergot nor LSD could have been responsible.
Ergot contamination would not, he says, have affected only one sack of grain in one bakery, as was claimed here. The outbreak would have been far more widespread.
He rules out LSD on the grounds that the symptoms people suffered, though similar, do not quite fit the drug.
He also points out that it would have not have survived the fierce temperatures of the baker's oven - though Albarelli counters that it could have been added to the bread after baking.
While they disagree on the cause of the hallucinations, on one point they are united - the need for a French government inquiry to get to the bottom of what really happened in Pont-Saint-Esprit all those years ago.”
@@thatdamncrow9197 fair enough, I couldn't remember correctly as it was ages ago that I learned of this incident.
Wasn't that a test of BZ or another Cia delirium producing drug? The real terrifying illusions are not indicative of lsd, which typically places the hallucinations "on top" of your perception. Seeing real bees and snakes is something far more terrifying than lsd
I'm so glad I live in a time of modern medicine. I'm grateful that I never have to worry about this, TB, smallpox, and polio. It's so crazy how much you had to avoid back then to live a (miserable) long life.
You can still get syphilis people just know what to look for a can get antibiotics for it.
But sometimes people have no idea they had it carriers with no symptoms until it's to late.
Yes because life today is amazing isnt it...
@@fidelio9301 Agreed, it’s not brilliant. Shit actually. However, as cliche as it may sound, appreciate the little things in life. Found a new song that makes you feel good? Enjoy that moment, enjoy nature and shit? A walk up the hills and the countryside really do make you appreciate being here.
All the best to you sir.
And I agree with your comment Nightshade, I’m an absolute bitch when I’m ill, hell I can barely even handle a fucking cold.
@@6Tainted1370 Cant disgaree with that.
A number of medieval era skeletons with signs of syphilis were found in Hull, which was one of Britain's busiest port for European trade in the middle ages. The skeletons were excavated at a site where a medieval monastery stood until at least the Tudor period and many of the bones showed signs of tertiary, or third stage syphilis. Tertiary syphilis can result in growths and the other symptoms Disturban mentioned but there is one symptom he didn't cover that is important to the story of the Hull skeletons. Tertiary syphilis is one of the few diseases that leaves it's mark on the bones of sufferers due to sores that go right down to the bone, causing holes to form in the bone. A number of the skeletons at Hull had distinctive holes across the front of the skull - called caries sicca- as well as striations on the long bones giving them a wood grain appearance. Through these paleo-pathologists was able to identify the presence of syphilis in Hull (and therefore probably the rest of Britain) well before Colombus reached the Americas.
Fascinating and horrifying. Thanks for sharing!
I remembered that they had found skeletons with syphilis lesions somewhere in the UK that predated Columbus, but I couldn’t remember where. Thanks for the reminder!
Oh! That's an important find!
The fact that these signs of a highly infectious disease were only found in such isolated populations makes the pre-Columbus theory highly suspect.
Thank you for such a well covered, in depth story on this. I love history & archaeology, especially Middle Age England, Ireland. You should make a video, I for one would watch and follow. Thank you again
Syphilis, I got once in Belize. It took a a spine injection, and 30 days of injected Penicillin, I was fine, and had no symptoms thank God as I was seen to in time. That was in 1988.
How you discover you get syphilis?
I had symptoms compared to Gonorrhoea which is common as a cold in 3rd world countries.
How did you get that illness?
@@badcampa2641 Going with unclean girls.
@@magirusdeutzjupiter2234 great job
Thank you for mentioning the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment in this video. I had to write a research paper on it three years ago, and it truly is a tragic example of unethical experimentation that could have gone on for longer if it wasn't reported.
I think you'll have a good time with this new series on disturbing illnesses. There are too many to count. Here are some suggestions:
- Smallpox and yellow fever (you were probably already going to cover these anyway)
- Kuru (fatal brain disease spread by cannibalism)
- Noma (destructive and often fatal infection of the mouth and face)
- Harlequin ichthyosis (extremely severe congenital skin disease with a low survival rate)
- Toxic shock syndrome (severe bacterial disease associated with the use of high-absorbency tampons)
- Fatal familial insomnia (fatal, incurable brain disease related to Kuru that causes an inability to sleep)
I just started watching and was wondering if he was gonna mention the Tuskegee experiment. I’m proud of him for that 😰 cuz ppl need to know if they don’t already.
and to think, the ones that designed and carried out those experiments were the same type of people trying to force vaccines on us all now after a supposed "accidental" man made virus leak...
@@PApro Don't you ever compare the 2 again. It's not the same and you know it.
@@masterrikki6900 rofl nahhh.. its not anything like that.. That was just them having fun, this is them trying to kill off a chunk of the population and/or genetically alter our DNA. This is much more serious!
Covid is a MAN MADE virus..why does one crate a virus that attacks and kills humans if not to unleash it on humans? There is no other reason to create such a thing unless it was to be used. Just like how you dont point a gun at anything you dont intend to kill, you dont make a virus that attacks anything you dont want to kill... it was 100% intentional from the start. Do they build bombs that they never plan to drop? Or guns they never plan to shoot? Does the military build fighter jets they never plan to fight? NO, you build weapons ( physical, biological or otherwise) for the sole intent to kill!
And the push for the vax says it all, they want this thing to effect as many people as possible. Both SARs and the swine flu had a higher death rate and we didnt need vax for any of that..why now? why this? Because theres more to the story...just wait another 50 yrs for those documents to leak like the countless other examples of the US gov doing science experiments on its own ppl with out their knowledge or consent, because Tuskeegee was not the first nor last time thats happened. Our governtment has intentionally put its citizens in harms way countless times on some super shaddy stuff and its no secret the people at the top want to cut the worlds population by more than half, they admit that all day out in the open like its no big deal.
@@masterrikki6900 you have to be senile to not know that it correlates in a way
The story goes that Al Capone knew he had syphilis when treatment became available, but just didn’t like shots and refused it. That lead to him developing the eventual neuropsych symptoms/dementia during his later years in prison. The sad thing is because the facial symptoms take years to develop, many of the young women and children in the pics sadly were infected from their mothers at birth and had were total innocents dealt a terrible hand in life.
EVERYONE is innocent regardless of age
Penicillin wasn’t “ discovered “ until the mid 40s I believe ( WW2) . Capone died in 47. Pretty sure his would have been too far advanced to do any good
@@arthurbrumagem3844 neurosyphilis is still treatable, albeit with a high continuous dose of penicillin
@@hamham0059410 thanks for the info. Figured at some point depending on advanced stages it would be a lost cause
@@arthurbrumagem3844 yeah, it totally would be actually. Brain damage is irreversible, but I guess treatment could put a pause to it
I obviously know what syphilis is, but I'd never actually SEEN pictures. I'd just read about the symptoms and then used my imagination... some of those pictures are seriously hard to look at.
IRL Resident Evil zombies.
@@blacktigerpaw1 I thought the same thing.
To say that the nose "falls off" is not accurate. What actually happens is that the cartilage in the nose is broken down and reabsorbed by the body, giving the nose a sunken in appearance. In later stages, the bones in the nose are also broken down. We can easily identify people who suffered from syphilis by very distinct characteristics left on the bones, specifically the skull and long bones of the limbs.
Do leprosy. That is one of the oldest known diseases.
Most "lepers" were actually syphilitic, and half of the population of "madhouses" were folk with neurosyphilis.
This is/was leprosy basically. Same ones Jesus healed
@@hangingon An answer based from a bible story!?!?? Jepp that will do😹 i sincerely hope you / well everyone never Get hospitalized … and the doctor says “ let’s operate this poor soul…. I found the answer in the Bible!. I will now treat it with some scientific knowledge.. may Jesus be with me on this one 👍🏻 in fact .. Jesus take the wheel! This It is some nasty stuff.. A sickness I just realized I remember reading and learning about in school!! Not medical school..oh no.. it was in Sunday school .. let the heeling begin “ “ no worries sir/madam..you just need to belive! I will take a hard pass on that kind of doctor!!
Leprosy is still around, but AFAIK it can be treated with antibiotics. It's a bacterial infection.
Any tissue necrosis it causes is permanent, though.
Be careful handling any injured armadillos you might want to take to wildlife rescue. They can possibly carry it. Just wash your hands.
Armadillos will claw, too.
@@TheHajdu99 triggered atheists have entered the chat
One of the interesting facets of syphilis is the cure by malaria. The violent fever killed the disease. But unfortunately the patient often died before that.
I have heard about that.
I’m pretty sure the doctor who discovered that got a Nobel prize.
We can't even imagine a life without antibiotics nowadays. So many terrible and painful illnesses people had to fight through and beat it or die a slow death. And it's only been 80 years that the first antibiotic was discovered. Hard to believe.
Thank you for this series on illnesses! It's very very interesting and your compassion is heart warming 🙏🏻
Suggestion for extremely disturbing illness: Harlequin Ichthyosis.
I seen the baby image that has the illness and it's absolutely horrible!

⚠️ DO NOT LOOK UP THIS DISEASE ⚠️
SERIOUSLY, you have been *warned.*
@@-xirx- you’re sensitive
I think this disease is very interesting and unable to imagine the pain and sadness that goes along with this illness
I'm so excited about this new series! I love medical history.
I’m glad you made a video of this, had a patient with neurosyphillis several months back. This reminded me of when I long ago heard about the horrible experiments that went on for so many decades. Got me interested. Thank you!
It always surprised me how many people are still very uninformed regarding this as well as other venereal diseases. So I too, am happy to see this informative video
Oh you mean the Tuskegee experiment where they purposely infected black men with this without telling them and they therefore brought it too there wives etc.
@@kaleahcollins4567 Yeah, they talk about it in the video.
@@kaleahcollins4567 HORRIBLE!!!I'm not American and when we first came here My Father looked at My History Book and was upset and proceeded to give us THE FULL STORY. My Grandmother came to England with teeth stained green from eating grass so her children could eat what rotted foods were 0n the ground because they were starved out and were too poor to take a slave ship to America. I truly feel for any and all who have suffered at the cruelty of 0thers
@@kaleahcollins4567 That was literally in the video you're commenting on lol
As a nurse I treated at least 5 patients per year on my psych unit. All of them had stage 3 Syphilis with dementia. Easily treated with IV antibiotics.
5 too many 😔 That is so sad 😞
it causes insanity and can jump to that at any time. probably the 1st thing the nurse said to us was that it can cause that. but they refused to believe that we had it. we were scared of shots and no one tells you it's just a stick. it can sting ad all, too, but not as much as those youtube videos where the guy gets stung by the most painful insect stings.
Penicillin was accidently discovered in 1928. It took 20 before it became mass produced. I am a pathologist and don't know where you got 1943 from, but I would definitely find 3 valid sources before publishing any data. Keep up the good work. Your videos are very educational.
I learned about the infamous Tuskegee Experiment from an issue of "The American Journal of Public Health" when I was a medical librarian. I also remember reading a review of a video about that experiment in "The British Medical Journal". The reviewer wondered why those doctors bothered when the results of untreated syphilis were well known and published in the European literature.
They wanted to be like Hitler
Racism
The reason is they needed to know the effect on blacks, the American govenrment also did lethal experiment on whites dying from cancer involving plutonium as they figured they were going to die anyways so might as well give them lethal doses and see what happens.
Syphilis is such a beautifully sounding word for such a gruesome disease.
ikr I was thinking that
I'm glad you think so lol
Silverlips
It’s a horrible name lol doesn’t sound beautiful at all
its disgusting how the men who were experimented on weren't told just how serious their condition was, on top of that giving them placebo's and being lied to is horrible. spreading that onto the next generation and giving it to other people..this is terrifiying.
Apostrophes are not used to denote a plural.
@@philmerlot5090 ok so u seem more concerned over some minor error than this video itself..does it really matter tho? because you seemed to still understand what i was saying
@@cypidez Yes. Correct use of language matters enormously.
@@philmerlot5090 it matters in academic papers and scientific journals, not RUclips comments. You understood what the comment was saying, that is enough.
The us government also did plutonium experiments on whites who had cancer as they thought they were going to die anyways so they gave them lethal doses of it without them knowing, it is not as well known as the people affected weren't black but it did happen.
This is gonna be a good series
Speaking of deadly illnesses leopold gave us AIDS
Fr
Love this idea!
Those poor men used in those experiments is just so sad😥
…The Government of the US went to Guatemala during the 1940’s to inoculate Citizens of that country with this terrible disease thousands were used as Guinea Pigs without any knowledge of the local population…
It apparently Sent Al Capone crazy towards the end of his life. It was said he also passed it onto his wife, who was fiercely protective of him and his privacy to the end.

You didn’t mention that the ‘blood test’ initially done to see if they had ‘bad blood’ was when they were intentionally injected with syphillis and THEN told they had ‘bad blood’ . And they were oh so grateful for all the free care they got for their ‘bad blood’ .
See I'd heard that too but everything I could find pointed to the victims already having latent syphilis. If you have anything which states otherwise please do share.
They already had syphilis. They were not intentionally infected.
@@rickberglund2134 they absolutely were intentionally infected .

Just downloaded your videos. Looking forward to watching a couple each day... gruesome, yet fascinating assortment of history.
Love the new series and look forward to more from you!! love your work, keep going ♡
I was watching a show on BBC about syphilis and they found out that it originated in Europe hundreds of years before Columbus they found that started and looks like in some kind of monastery.
I wouldn't trust anything the BBC has to say at the moment.
According to them black people have been a major and integral part of British culture for thousands of years.
Let's not kid ourselves: all disease comes from China.
@Indica Moon the BBC used to be well respected as a news source. It was mandated to be impartial.
I was horrified when I first saw USA news outlets. I'd never seen anything so partisan. That goes for both sides CNN or Fox for example.
@@ruledtrendy5066 black people have been in the uk since the Romans. Why does that fact sit so uncomfortably with you?
@Indica Moon the fact is both left and right think the BBC. In reality they’re generally centric but in recent years they’ve been in such fear of the tories scraping the license feel that they’ve been giving right wing politicians really easy ball questions.
This was a great segment and thanks for including the Tuskegee experiment …As terrible as the disease is that affected everyone mentioned here ..I’m just glad now that it’s punishable to conduct unethical experiments.
I'd love to see a video about the history of epilepsy. In ancient times they thought a seizure was basically a spiritual possession. So happy I wasn't alive back then lol
Great suggestion
Yes! At the age of 9 I was diagnosed with epilepsy, 9 year old me didn't understand at first. It effected my learning and I have a large scar on the left side of tounge. Due to biting during a seizure, my god it hurts everytime and left with the taste of blood. Like one time back back in 2020 or 2019, I was in the hospital for 6 days. During my time there, doctors were trying to get me to have a seizure. Just to see if I can get off my medication, after unsuccessful experiments. The doctors sent me home, that night I had a seizure. Once I came back to my senses, I just laughed and made fun of their efforts. Anywaaay I think the history of epilepsy would be kinda be difficult to break down. Only cause seizures are symptoms to many other illnesses. 🤷🏼♀️
And religious fanatics still claim that anneliese michel was possessed. She had epilepsy and severe schizophrenia. They killed her with 67 exorcissm. You can explain 1000times to religious fanatics about medical causes but they won't believe you. They prefer the spectacle and church propaganda.
Wrong
Today they give you a vaccine that poisons you and they tell you it’s to stop you know what. Times aren’t much better today than they were back then.
Nothing like being horrified while I get some work done, on a pleasant Sunday afternoon
This video should be shown in sex ed classes or this is why condoms should be worn. These cases are just horrific 😢
Glad I was shy, may have saved me!
I have been OBSESSED with your channel for the past 3-4 months🙃
Really looking forward to this series :D great start!
The earliest case of sexually transmitted Syphilis was found in the UK. The oldest congenital form was found in North American Native remains.
It was said that Caligula contracted syphilis and this is what led him to his insanity...Oh and all that inbreeding too lol There is also a movie starring Alfre Woodard Called Miss Evers' Boys that talks about the experiments of syphilis on the African American community. Awesome movie!
Not to mention the lead
Thank you. Just what I needed to get me through the week.

Thank you, DH.
A new kind of SCARY on your VIDEOS I see & hear!!!! You explain so well.
I trained as a psychiatric nurse in the early 1970s, sadly GPI was very much a reality . General Paralysis of the Insane, horrid name and a vile illness. Poor souls.

Just an idea, would be cool to branch on to covering the dangers of different drugs or their history, like the effects of krokodil etc. Would be cool 🙏💯 great vid
Miss Evers' Boys is one of the best movies I've ever seen.
Unfortunately the men in the experiments, their wives/lovers, and children suffered horribly.
Syphilis had already been in Europe for several centuries prior to Columbus, congenital syphilis was found on a set of twins in Pompeii, the skeleton reveal they where in the their early teens, they weren't malnourished but very well cared for, there other sites in ancient Rome were skeltons remains have shown syphilis, the illness seemed to have some what disappear after the fall of Rome, and the rise of the dark ages,/Christianity, the population mind shift might of played a role in decreased numbers of the illness, and while the illness was present, other diseases like the plague superseded syphilis,
Very interesting series topic! I think you have a great future as a content creator.
Excited about this series
Another illness you could do is fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). Extremely interesting but really sad for the people who have it. Their skeletons are absolutely beautiful though. Two skeletons are on display at the Mütter museum in Pennsylvania.
Wow!! This was very informative !! Thank you for sharing !!
recommending coverage of the AIDs crisis and the rampant homophobia surrounding it
💖 keep up the great work Dis
Will certainly be covering aids
With the advent of a possible cure for AIDS, I think it would behoove us to explore the origins and prior treatments for it.
The CDC also experimented with people from Guatemala too. I already commented this on the other video. Not just the Africans went through that.
White man be on some bs frfr
I like this new series. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Xoxo
Also syphilis will (in my mind) always go hand in hand with Al Capone.
Wow what a wonderful time to educate the masses on health issues. Thank you. I subbed to the new channel. Your work is greatly appreciated. History and health information is combo idea that will go far!
I remember the Tuskegee experiment my ancestors told me about. When infected so many black men with this particular disease on purpose
This came out at a very poignant time. Thanks!
This channel is amazing I love its documentaries
10/10 series, cant wait for the next one.
Could you make more videos about older events, during the medieval and classical age?
He's got enough material for decades to come. I'm sure he will...I'd also love to see that...but til then let's enjoy ☺
💙❤💜
I’m sure the BLACK PLAGUE comes to mind!?
Those rat/rodents were filthy Mac-nasty back then! Today can be bad too! An Indian reservation had an outbreak some years ago!?
The forensic files had an episode about it.
also the white wig thing use to be thought as power/status/royalty/judges but they wore the white wigs to cover their sores and hair loss from syphilis... that came from medical historian and author Dr. Lindsey Fitzharris...kinda interesting and horrifying
Syphilis was definitely around for longer than most people think. In Pompei, archeologists discovered twin boys with congenital syphilis that they could only have contracted from their mother.
Oooohhhhh I'm gonna loove this series!!
Here’s one you could do Leprosy. That would make an interesting video. People have known to be moved into a secluded area and not allowed to leave. And only people who are infected can live there as well. When they were all finally dead they would burn that section of the village. I believe they did that in late 1490-1520’s in that area.
Ahh man here we go
Saw a book once that contained all these medical photographs of people who suffered from the disease (amazingly, in a Tower Records in Tokyo - remember that store?).
Almost bought it, and a part of me almost regrets not having a copy of the book...
Almost.
Oh, and definitely a new sub!
Fascinating stuff, love learning gross history
It seems like the colonizers encountered different strains of the disease in the western hemisphere and distributed it en masse. Indigenous people certainly reported pre-Colombian 'venereal diseases' as did tons of other groups around the world.
I actually thought they've had it partly proven by now that it started out as a kinda simple disease before the sailors (Columbus) and traveling by ship came into the picture. Then changed into a way more severe form which also found a new way of being transmitted cause of the changed circumstances to which it had to adapt to. Cause as far as I've heard they were able to find signs of that disease in native american bones from back then.
Loving the new channel 😃
Ohhhh, yeah. This series is going to get real interesting.
Back in the early 70s, my dad and his buddy were sitting in a bar one afternoon and a stranger walked up to Shaky, asking what was wrong with my dad's face, he'd had Lupus and was having a flare up of the butterfly rash.
Shaky didn't want to be bothered so he gave the stranger a one word answer...Syphilis.
The stranger left and dad and Shaky had the bar to themselves. 😁😂
I read a really sick and disturbing book a few years ago about syphilis and the “gentry”. (The stories are Liverpool based)
Apparently when a “well to do gentleman” had syphilis, he would go to a doctor and was told to “have sex with a very young virgin child, the younger the better”, to rid them of the disease. The “gentleman” would rape a child and pass on the disease And he would be cured. Unfortunately the child would die through the trauma of the rape or contract the disease. And it was said the “gentleman” STILL had syphilis after that….. GOOD.. I hope the “gentleman” suffered horrendous pain!
That's horrible :(
I believe this actually was told to men in Africa as a cure for aids.
Yet that’s still standard in countries with high rates of hiv and aids and other disease. That’s why there’s such a high rate in African countries and syphilis is ravaging indigenous communities
That same myth also flourished for AIDS as well - hopefully no-one believes it now.
My favorite STI, cool, thanks! 👏
New Subscriber, love your Channel already
The thumbnail alone earned you a like.
What they did to these men is horrific 😢
I'm glad you posted this video, although I wish you could've added the experiment the U.S did in Guatemala.
Great content! Horrifying indeed.
“You’ll find my Sympathy between shit and syphilis.”
-Major Payne
Well that sent me down a rabbit hole.
(FYI to others--An interpretation of this phrase/joke is that the only place you'll find sympathy in the real world is in the dictionary between shit and syphilis. I.e., it doesn't exist...or at least not coming from the person saying the phrase)
[3:02] What's up with the nose hole on that skull? I knew syphilis could wreak havoc on one's face but I didn't realize it could rearrange one's entire facial bone structure like that.
If you read the comments someone else explains it as tertiary-3rd stage syphilis. The sores go right into the bones. Absolutely horrific.
Yes yes yes!!! I’m 100% for this new series!!
Very good video.
Thanks.
Stuff like this makes me feel better about being a virgin 😂
But you can get it from your mother
You do you x

Very interesting thank you.
Should have teamed up with Durex for the videos sponsorship.
Thanks for the vid btw was interesting.
Should have probably saved until I finished eating though 😅
One of the famous people you forgot to mention was Cesare Borgia. He wore a mask later in his life because of this disease. The things I learned from researching the Assassin Creed games. Not kidding.
He took mercury as a cure, which only made it worse. Only silver was revealed to treat the disease.
Do a video on the history of rabies please! Scariest disease I know
Yes! Seconding this
Since there is no cure it is indeed the scariest. Imagine if it were made into a biological weapon
Omg I've seen a video on rabies, it's probably the most horrifying disease ever.
I would like you to consider doing a video on the Pruitt-Igoe housing complex in Saint Louis MO it is said that experiments was done on African Americans living in this housing complex. It supposed to be one of the first housing projects built. There was a special in it in previous years but I can't find it.
This was very interesting. Im a child of the 60s it was talked about then. However, I don't hear about it these days. Be well
This video reminded me to order an STD testing kit. One can never be complacent
damn I got my BA and spend my research seminars on 19th century Europe/Discourse Analysis and Post Modern/Contemporary society. I would LOVE to make videos like these on topics Historiography, Orientalism, Romanticism, Positivism etc. but I can't even imagine the time commitment. Maybe there's someone I can team up with lol. I would love to start my M.A. too but I'm putting everything into my career right now
Good luck with your career, I hope you get that MA some day!
You should make longer videos. I love listening to these at work. Your voice is calming, even if the content is not lol
Thank you! we do have a few longer videos and playlists linking topics together if thats of interest!
I like this documentary because it's truth and very detailed 👌🏽 😎
