The Struggles of Being a Thailand YouTuber (Be Original or Copy Content)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- I interview Paddy Doyle, one of Thailand's most popular RUclipsrs about the difficulties of creating content. Paddy goes into detail about the dilemma of creating content that is totally original or imitating other creators and put out content that has the potential to go viral.
We also discuss what it feels like to put out a video and for it to totally flop. The RUclips game can be funny. Sometimes the videos that you put the least effort into end up becoming your most successful videos and the opposite is also true.
Check out Paddy's channel. He's travelling to every province in Thailand on his Honda Dream (Dreamy) and he makes some of the best travel content There is in Thailand.

The reason I've been watching Paddy for well over a year is that he wasn't doing all those badge of honour instagram videos, wasn't trying to promote his Samui Villa and condos for sale, not bragging about how much money he gave away to the people in distress. Paddy was and still is doing genuinely great travel videos about the provinces I will never visit. I did worry about his wellbeing at a time last year when he evacuated to Samui, but it's great seeing that he's doing well now. Those badge of honour videos do generate a lot of views but in the long run the most loyal fanbase will stick to sincere videos that create emotions. And "everybody does it" videos will remain something you watch when you just want to watch whatever that you'll forget the next moment.
Thanks for the sharing that. That’s good feedback
Totally agree was not also using T&A to attract viewers and all the other very questionable crap. There are only a handful of channels out of Thailand I watch. The majority including their viewers just makes me cringe. If you ever wondered why the visa situation is only going to become more difficult over time is three things. (1) Guide books that are only concerned about making huge profits. (2) RUclips idiots that in truth understand little or nothing about Thailand, the Thai culture, the people, or their customs and have zero concern for the people they are attracting to Thailand. (3) The bargirl/bar/sex channels only attract criminals and the lowest of scum in my opinion. Paddy giving him credit is making an effort to do otherwise his only drawback for himself is he needs to at least learn the basics of the Thai language.
Paddy is the man! The RUclipsr struggle is real!
Sure is Nick. Chris Parker coming next
I think "Thairish Times" is fine, and it does work well for the interviews. It feels to me that you are creating what will historically become truly valuable archive footage.
totally cool stuff. I think you have found your utube niche. Keep it comming and i will keep watching.
Cheers Ian, been out filming over the weekend. More to come
My wife and I love both yours and Paddy's channels. Keep up the honest, down-to-earth great work. However, Pete, DO NOT change your channel name as Paddy suggests. It's the perfect blend of who you are, your background and what you are all about. Love it!
Thanks Chris for the encouraging words. Thairish Times stays☺️☺️☺️
I've never been so captivated by two people talking. Great video as usual Pete. This is the first time I've seen Paddy Doyle and will definitely subscribe to his channel too. He seems like a nice guy.
Cheers mate, check Paddy out
We have been following paddy since series 1 of the budgeteers, even met him at a food market in chaing mai when we were travelling thailand. Really genuine nice guy, who stopped for a drink and a chat with us for 30mins. Great interview
He’s a nice fella and very helpful for sure
Of course he's gonna go and make a video at Mark Weins place, he's just pretending he thinks it's a bit naff but deep down we all want the views.
........I'll wait until the dust has settled then go.
I wonder what your take will be on it Pat. That will be an interesting watch for sure
@@ThairishTimes I'll pretend I'm going to do a history of Ekkamai video but just so happened to pop in.
Pete you are so good at interviewing now, that is why we all love it! Not sure if you know Dana from Idea Studio, but you should talk to him, he has actually hosted a few different shows where he interviewed some very impressive guests. I'm sure he would share any tips he has with you.
Thanks mate, myself and Dana have something in the pipelines coming in the next few weeks
I actually remember Paddys first LiveStream. I think he was in like his first or second province. As I recall there were like 1000 people in the chat at one point, it was just zipping by. It must have been completely overwhelming as his first one ever. WIth that many people there is just no way you can keep up with the chat and engage with people, it's mad.
Yes I watched that too. I think livestreams work perfectly for smaller channels. That's for sure. Just watched you behind the scenes video. Great stuff
Thank you for sharing 😊
Really good time! Thanx to both of You guys!
You’re very welcome
Very interesting authentic real honest interview.
Thanks Ruth☺️
very interesting topic and some good advice for a prospective or new RUclipsr... good interview as always Pete!
Thanks Mark
Listening to Paddy ruminate about his conflict between creativity and chasing a popular subject that's been done a lot made me realize it all comes down to authenticity, doesn't it? Excellent video gentlemen, thanks to you both.
Yes Charlie that's pretty much it. This YT stuff is a funny game at times
Very insightful, thanks for making this video!
You’re very welcome
‘Selling’ RUclips travel or food content is the same as any marketing campaign or advertising. People don’t like feeling they’re being manipulated and given ‘the sell’. Content has to feel like it’s genuine. Once people get a whiff of any fakeness or trying too hard it’s game over. Genuine content will win over original content any day. Because if it’s genuine it will still be seen as original because it will have your own take on it.
Yes as viewers we understand this is ‘a business’ to RUclips content creators but we don’t want to feel like we are just being used for the likes and revenue. Be passionate, be genuine, be an expert in the content you’re trying to sell (and if you’re not already - then become one!)
This is a great comment and feedback for any creator. Thanks mate
@@ThairishTimes I only came across your channel very recently and I have especially enjoyed your interviews. There seems to be so many interesting people in Bangkok, and I love your genuine interest and natural style of interviewing.
@@MelGreenery thank you very much. I filmed 2 more interviews over the weekend. Coming very soon
Your one word assessment of Phed Mark was more brutal than anything Mark Wiens has said on video about anything he has eaten in the world.
Haha yes, I just had to be honest. I know better kra pao places for half the price
Unlike other youtubers, you don't seem to be stressed by getting 100k subs. Just live the life
yep it doesn't bother me. It would be nice though
Really interesting. Loved that you scratch below the surface and are less superficial and predictable vs others. The interviews are really informative. Love Patty Doyle videos BTW !
Thanks mate, i’m a curious soul
You are doing great Pete! You're a great listener and curious about people and life like myself. Real life is much more interesting than fiction. I think the world of Paddy too. I wish you both much success!
Thanks very much Martin. I do love meeting people and having a chat with them. Everyone has a story
เป็นการทำคอนเท้นท์ที่ยอดเยี่ยมมากครับ ถึงจะฟังและแปลอังกฤษได้ไม่มากเท่าไหร่ แต่ก็สนุกครับ👍❤️❤️😁
Pete do you realise how good you are at interviewing your something else man well done to you thank you for sharing
Thank you very much Margaret. More to come
A fantastic couple of videos with Paddy 👏🏼
Thanks very much
Great! ❤️👍🏼Have a Fantastic weekend guys?
You too Wendy ☺️
Great topic. Very original. I agree with Paddy. I prefer original videos. But maybe because I'm already very familiar with the usual haunts. I like when Patty does the relatively seldom visited provinces. Added those to my bucket list.
I appreciate your honesty, and compassion. Thank you!
You’re very welcome
First time watcher, now subscriber. Great to watch, nice and light, relaxed mood. Do and what makes you happy, vlog what you feel is right. We all bring our own personality to what we make, no matter the destination. Cheers mate 👍😀🙏
Thank you very much☺️
@@ThairishTimes most welcome 🙏
I've watched many of Paddy's videos.
He's a very interesting person but my only criticism I have is to many temples.
I do enjoy a good temple video but. I remember once thinking I'll give it a go until the first temple.
Five minutes later. I'm going to show you this temple.
Still a big fan Paddy.
I love the travelling to different places.
Thanks for the education of places I had never heard of.
Well done! I really enjoyed both parts of the interview and look forward to watching your next one.
Thanks Andrew, 2 more on the way
Im a Brit living (usually) in Malaysia and recently due to being stuck in bed with thr 'rona' I searched lots of new vloggers. I enjoy your content a lot. Used to follow Paddy in The Budgeteers, so great to find him again as well. I also agree with Paddy about your channel name, something about it kept me away from clicking, but Im so glad I finally did. You are really good at listening to your guests.
Thanks for clicking mate and giving the channel a chance 🙏🙏🙏
Please keep up with the great interviews Pete!
Thanks, will do. I’ve got one coming tomorrow
What a lovely guy, thoroughly enjoyed both parts. Nice work 👍
Thank you very much Daniel
Good contents in your interviews, Pete. A joy to view !
Thank you very much ☺️☺️
I remember this time last year we were talking pete about favorite thailand youtubers we both said paddy doyle , and here you are one year later and your interviewing him well done your channel going from strenght to strenght maybe next year might see mark weins on here ha ha , keep up the good work pete you doin dublin proud.
Thanks very much Dave, yes it was exactly one year ago that we chatted. I have a few other big targets to get on the channel. There's no stopping us here on Thairish Times. I wonder if Mark Wiens wants to defend his kra pao in a tell all interview lol
I started watching RUclips for the last four years now we cut the cable tv off so pretty much all I’m watching now is RUclipsr I been following Paddy from the beginning of his journey really enjoying all of his videos and we came across your videos awhile ago and start watching just about all of your videos we find it very interested and informative specially on the interviewing ones and of course the ones with you and noon some have us laughing out loud -what keeps us staying with the channel is the consistency of the content like what ever you’re doings now is working and keeping us interested speaking for myself as a Thai person who’s living in the USA and really missing home and can’t wait to go back husband and i are thinking of retiring there someday soon i never get tired of seeing or hearing stories from places that i have never been to in Thailand these are some of the things keeping me interested you’re doing a great job -sorry I know this is a long comment’s 😄just thought what a follower like me who stay connected to the channel is like keep doing your things Pete we enjoy you and noon looking forward to your next videos
Thanks so much Mally. I really appreciate your feedback it’s valuable information for me. Thanks for supporting our channel and I hope we can make you feel like you’re in Thailand again when you watch our videos 🙏🙏🇹🇭🇮🇪
Very nice to hear this story from a You Tuber. I had no idea about how it works. Now I understand a Little bit more. Good Interview. 🙏
Welcome to the RUclips game Gert 😂
Name is great, no need to rebrand at all. Doesn't come across like a news channel. Irish guy in Thailand and his experiences. Perfect.
Nice one Robert thanks
I like your guess interviewing to see how people view life, I can listen while working.
Great, hope you enjoy it
Thanks for the insights
Great video Pete.
Thanks Robin 👍
Pete, for sure the way forward is interviewing people. It's a great niche and you do it well mate.
Thanks mate, i’ve done 2 more over the weekend. Will be uploading them shortly
@@ThairishTimes looking forward to them. Keep up the quality and workrate and your channel will just keep growing and growing.
Great stuff from you both, nice interaction. Where can I buy the straw Paddy was advertising? 😆 Interesting piece mate, Paddy’s a stand out guy in the Thai vloggers world and certainly does good stuff whether original or in a familiar topic. I liked his intro from the early part of the trip 😉
Paddy actually raised a good point about your channel name - ever thought of sometime that reflected you & Nune? … but then would it work with the interviews you do. Great one man, nice work 😎🙏👍🏻
Maybe the “Times” could change but “Thairish” reflects us both. Food for thought at least. Paddy is the don of the travel game now up there with RW4U
@@ThairishTimes yeah, don’t drop the ‘Thairish’ it’s pretty unique (only heard one other channel with that in the name). Take care man, have a great week 😎🙏👍🏻
@@ThairishTimes Paddy isn't even close to Rw4U and has been pretty stagnant for a while. Like your channel name.
A++. Sir Paddy Doyle is a true gentleman and a talented filmer, I am curious where he will settle down at the end
really enjoyed that one, well done Pete and Paddy.
Thanks JP ☺️☺️
Paddy I'm one of your fans, I'm tell you why I didn't like that video. Its nothing new more expensive food reviews and your not a food guy like Mickey Chen that's his thing. Sam Chui Airplanes. I like your video when your on the road going to small Thai towns and its relaxing for me as you ride your old vintage Honda Dream. Thats you NoT the food, that's been over done and there are other guys who are better than you at that, but they don't ride a Honda Dream in the back country of Thailand. That's my take on it. Im a journalist so I know what I'm talking about.
Paddy is right, his videos are engaging because of the personal stories he shares. It's also about following him on the journey to all the provinces on Dreamy that keeps people coming back each week imo.
Good interview / discussion, I'd watch more of these. Can you get Gary on?
Jono I filmed 2 videos with Gary last weekend and will be uploading them soon
I hope youdo not mind me saying but I 100% agree with Paddy about changing the name of your channel. I realise you have added but countries together in the name but part of the reason I never watched you before was because I thought it was a news channel. Just my thoughts.
Thanks for the feedback. It’s interesting as some people think I should change it but others like it and want it to remain 😬
Just keep doing what your doing Pete. I never realized how much you tubers are into them selves. Mark Wiens is good because he is liked by many. Paddy just be yourself. Take Care
Cheers Rob, yes i’ll keep going the way i’m going. I’m enjoying the journey and learning lots as I do it
I lived in Thailand for one year. Arrived in Chiang Mai. Remained in Chiang Mai.
Never knew that Mark Wiens even had a restaurant! Learned he had one when various RUclipsrs started making videos about it.
I've never spent even one minute in Bangkok. My bad. But I prefer mid-size cities, and was warned that Bangkok was way too "Thailand Version of New York City", and had zero interest UNTIL Paddy and Two Passports did videos about it.
Even a Thai-Nerd (like me) can miss stuff that seems so OBVIOUS to you guys.
In other words, it sure seems like you guys are analyzing the hell out of something, when in reality, there are many average folks just like me who discover different things, different interests and passions...and our views aren't just for clicks and likes. We watch (sometimes) with fresh eyes. And fresh eyes ARE out there. It only SEEMS that you are doing same-o, same-o gotta do the damned video of _______. Seriously.
@@beverlyweber4122 it’s just that anyone who comes to Bangkok and wants views goes to Mark Wiens restaurant and says the food is so spicy. It’s very over done. Yeah we did over analyze it and you’re right we should remember that there are people who may not know about these so called “badge of honor” videos
Great interview again 👍🏻
Thanks Herrold 🙏
I know that, as you develop this channel, you'll increase your viewership, but regardless, your relaxed and inquisitive style helps make the person your interviewing seem relaxed and open. I'm not sure how you stumbled upon this idea, but your very good at it. I'm sure there are many stories out there that will keep you busy.
Thanks Tom, glad you like the style. I’ve got a couple of big stories coming
Great interview, tell Paddy not to worry about doing the restaurant every one has done because I am sure there’s people like me that have not watched those. I am following him cause he is traveling on a bike so I don’t follow all those other people. And I am watching your channel for the interviews. Keep up the great work.
cheers mate
Paddy is the BEST of the BEST.
Paddy is great and everything... but this seemed like the passing of the torch from me... Pete you have the longevity game in your blood and you are 100 % real if you get me 😜 keep up the good work bro
Cheers Shadow we’re keeping it real here Michael Parkinson style 😂
@@ThairishTimes Its better to own the circus than be in the circus... Loving the interviews you are a God damn natural.. by the way if you need another clown to interview I will be back by the end of the year... No holds barred interview... Probably do 10 million views hahah
@@ThairishTimes either make you or break you 😂😂😂😂
@@TheShadowBoxer1987 I know your story Shadow. That's a viral interview right there
I have no desire to be a youtuber but the business side of this he described was interesting ! Great vid!💪👍
It sure is. Cheers
Hi Pete, you did a great and entertaining interview with Paddy Doyle. I didn't know him until the 1st part of the story and then I watched some of his vlogs - really very well done stuff! His current one complements your story of Kanchanaburi "A Hero Story". They are both excellent videos on the same topic, but each one is very special in its own way.
Listening to you RUclipsrs like this gives the impression that you are under pressure to succeed
(Subscribers, Clicks, Likes & Comments = $).
The real question is, are you dependent on it, or do you enjoy what you do? For example, videos about food & real estate are uninteresting to me, I love being taken into a story that has content and background. That's why I enjoy watching most of your videos. Everyone gets a like, but I can only comment on the topics that grab me. For me as a consumer it is not important how many subscribers or clicks a video has! Thairish Times, Bangkok Pat, Paddy Doyle are my top 3. But I'm aware that I'm just one piece in your viewers' puzzle.
Thank you very much for this little insight into the life of RUclipsrs.
Greetings from Sattahip - Gerd 🌈🍀💖🌴🌈
Thanks for the great feedback Gerd. I’m not under any pressure and I enjoy doing what i’m doing. It keeps me active, gets me thinking and helps me meet new people (like yourself). We’ll keep putting out original content here on Thairish Times
Good interview. I watch 4-5 Thailand videos a day for a year and never heard of Mark Vens Restaurant. Don’t obsess about the RUclips world you know as you watch these videos. I watch Paddy, you, Cary in Phuket, Bangkok Pat etc. just because they made a video 2 years ago, doesn’t mean it matters. I watch the video based on liking the personality and I don’t care too much about Thailand pre-Covid videos as I won’t get to experience that country. I will only know post Covid Thailand.
Me too! And I live on Ekamai Rd. I just posted a comment on Doyle's channel saying I feel like a dumb-ass for having not known of the Wiens place. You made me feel smart again:)
As usual superb interviews Pete paddy seems like a good guy keep them coming Pete take care stay safe mate 👍
Thanks Mac, glad you enjoyed it mate more to come
Great interviews Pete. Keep doing you mate! Love your content. Paddy is a great guy and hope I can be in Phuket for that final leg of his trip.
Thanks Dion, let's meet for a beer in BKK
i totally agree stay original but the odd video doesn't hurt if it goes viral and helps your business , great interviews mate
exactly, I think so too
I love that he has a bit of Ricky Gervais in so many ways, and all the PG ways, too. Glad you split this up in two parts even of accident.
Haha yeah Ricky Gervais spot on
Paddy is awesome, but I must admit I’m getting a bit bored of many Thai based RUclipsrs as there is a lot of duplication. How many times do we really want to see them visit Mark Wiens restaurant, Benjakitti park, Wow this condo only costs $300 per month, cheap Food in Chinatown etc.
I hear ya mate
Paddy is a great guy 😀 thanks for share your great story video 😀you are a great RUclipsr love your Chanel
Thanks so much Dorte. Thank you for all you support
I watch your videos Paddy because I like your personality. You are smart, funny and have a certain curiosity that is quite attractive.
Pete, you are a natural and talented interviewer
Thank you very much Catherine 🙏🙏
Country music is popular when people move away from the countryside. They long for what they are missing. They can buy good food but cannot buy that experience in the countryside
Such a good interviewer ! Maybe you should watch Peter santenello! A brilliant RUclips “journalist”
He is also a very good interviewer !
I guess there are many interesting area’s and people in Thailand !
I watch him. He’s excellent
Hiya Pete, you're a great interviewer. People are nosey for sure. 🤣I love Paddy's channel. Going live is hard work. People get annoyed when you do not answer them. And with over 1000 people in the chat. It's hectic for the host. Great interview. Paddy's will definitely grow bigger. And yourself. Both are great channels. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend.
1000 people in a stream is crazy to manage!! I’m happy with 50😂😂 have a great week
Paddy Doyle is way better than Mark Weins. Not for the amount of subscribers but for his presentations and expressions. Hands down, Paddy is the best!
I’ve never heard of this restaurant but I follow paddy so I wouldn’t even notice it’s a badge of honour video 👌
Keep up the interviews,you have the knack-I wonder one day in the future you could do one with Dave,and find out how he handled being shafted like he was,and who was behind it(I think we may already know this)
keep up the good work
I doubt he’d do one. I have had no contact with him for a year now
@@ThairishTimes probably not,I will have a beer with him the next time I get up to thailand
It's really interesting to hear you guys talk about your motivations for RUclips. If you go to Chiang Mai, I reckon you should interview Walk-About Wayne, enjoying his channel which is growing like yours.
I bet Wayne has a good story Joe. If I'm up that way I'd do it
As a consumer content is important, that is why I think so called “ Live Streams” are in my opinion just lazy ways of gaining clicks. I can only speak for myself, but I certainly don’t mind if someone puts out a video that has already been done before, ie interviews, walk arounds, cost of living, travel tips, etc, it’s the unique perspective that appeals to me and I think to others also. I think you might be in danger of over thinking it so to speak. Just keep doing what you are already doing and the rest will take care of itself.
Cheers thanks for the feedback and your opinion
My issue with RUclips is that all viewers are equal as to monetizing (supposedly), real life is definitely not like that, t&a will get you quick subscribers but with little marketing value.
At some point, RUclips will get better from better data and there will be a reshuffle and things will look very different.
Shows like yours will benefit for their original contents and the higher quality audience.
Thanks, yes I agree. I won't be touching any of that kind of content. I think over time YT reduce the ad payments on this kind of content too
Great interview Pete. I had the same experience at Phed Mark. I thought it was ok, my Thai girlfriend wasn’t impressed by it at all 😅. Agreed that you can get a better one at street corners 🤭
New subscriber here, very interesting video but to be honest being a RUclipsr in Thailand it's not easy.. though the country is very beautiful.
So interesting talking about how the algorithm works
Glad you liked it, more stuff like this with other youtubers
What has happened to RUclips lately? People are overly obsessed with stats, algorithms, analysis - as a viewer it is ****ing boring hearing people talk about videos instead of showing something interesting (not this one btw) Creators are becoming overly self conscious, and some are taking themselves WAY too seriously. Surely one of the reasons you "escape" the west is to avoid the trap of chasing a dollar, people pleasing, and second guessing what a client wants/needs. make content YOU find interesting, if you chase the viewer it comes across as contrived. For me, I can enjoy a guy walking down a nice beach with a cell phone, more than fancy J Cuts, three camera angles, clickbait thumbnails, and annoying overlays that detract from the story.
It’s getting more and more competitive since there’s hardly any entry barriers (phone and laptop is all you need). You are right though about making content that you find interesting. That’s what keeps me interested but most will make content that they know will get views and Mark Weins restaurant is one of them
Passion comes across very well on camera. That’s what I believe so make the content you love
@@ThairishTimes See, I cant watch Mark, his voice grates on me....Like Jamie Oliver "look at those lovely spuds having a nice little nap over there..." Real enthusiasm comes across, overly positive hype makes the viewer feel like a product, as that doesn't reflect real life imho. Paddy shows all his breakdowns of Dreamy which keeps it real :-)
@@dallasstorey For me it all depends on the person. Just because someone is enthusiastic doesn't mean everything has to be positive and "the best thing ever"
I love the name Thairish Times
Thanks Judy🙏🙏🙏🙏☺️
So i am watching this again . Why ? because your stuff rocks man.
Hey thanks Ian 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great interview Pete. Paddy need not have worried, even though his Mark Wiens vid did well with 30 thousand views, he has had, for the most part, far more success with his normal vids ... I notice that my most popular vid (not that I get many views), but nevertheless, my most popular vid has the word Ladyboy in the heading. Even though if you watch the vid, it doesn't actually have a LB in the video (-: Maybe Paddy should use that word in a video if he wants to get his magic million viral video (-:
Love Paddy. I know that feeling Pete. You never know what people are going to like.
it's an enigma wrapped in a mystery lol
Every single click bait vid ive seen on youtube is a dissapointment so i tend to watch them less in the future. Good honest content does it for me even if the subject has been covered before its refreshing to see other peoples angle.
That’s a fair point
Pretty intense guy that I think will mellow out as he gets older. I suspect he will one day make a lot of money doing something because he seems really motivated and driven
Don't worry, he's already making very good money (-:
Brilliant video on two counts. Love Paddy and his content he's so easy to listen to.. but one thing I could not understand, you are two British guys in a pub and you never watched the Rugby 6 Nations game that was on the TV behind you 🤭🤭😅😅
Oh Stan I'm not British I'm Irish. That game was on repeat. I had watched it the night before hehe
we all love Paddy, he is funny, giggling all the time. Serious and showing emoitions and good picture/sound. Positive guy, till he hits the wall, then he is drop dead serious.
Easy to press like then, and now he is more interresting because we all fell like we know him and he has met someone special, and we are all curious. You are also easy to like but more serious than the giggling dude on a motorbike investigating Thailand. i think Paddy is on to something, maybe more newsrelated? Like Bangkok Pete? Anyhow, loving your channel, if i want to laugh over a beer at home Paddy. Always press like :)
Thanks mate, Paddy certainly is a funny guy that makes me giggle too. Let’s see if a name change is good for the channel. I’ll think about it
I have an idea. Paddy could ride around India on a Royal Enfield! Actually, looking at the roads over there, maybe not such a good idea.
He got a point, I can see many British couple who they had few subscriber and viwer algoritm in Europe flew here for getting more Asia content to please satisfy Asia subscriber & audience to gain up there channel and earn money before went back to there West continent hometown.
Yes me also thought thairish times is a news channel.
His content out on the road is far superior to anything else that he does in my opinion. That's where he really shines at times. His Irish accent is terrible though you should have called him out for that. 😄 Joking, great set of interviews and interesting to get an insight into his process.
I do love the travel content. That’s when he’s at his best. He put’s on a decent country accent hehe
@@ThairishTimes ah jaysus, I forgot you're from Dublin, that's what you think a country accent is too. 😄
@@masterofthecranium 😂😂😂
Great stuff.
Cheers Mick 🙏🙏
How am I supposed to be learning to digital nomad in Thailand with Tuivasa KOing The Black Beast in the same video? LoL 😆
What a fight!! Shoeyyyy!!
It's like a pop song or a movie, no one knows why one is a classic or flop or not. I used to meet the freelance photographers coming through Bangkok, they had the world tickets and a list of sites they knew would sell. Smokey Mountain was a rubbish dump outside Manilla, they could always sell photos of kids working on the dump, and I think in Bangkok it was the illegal animal trade . Sometimes they would only be gone for two weeks.
That's interesting stuff. The YT game certainly is confusing at times
@@ThairishTimes Sarah from "Wonderhussey' puts out great offroad vids around Death valley plans,reserchs and films in the desert, (works her arse off)has a steady following,one vid about the sleazy side of Las vegas just her walking along talking during the day .1.4 million views.
@@pepelemoko01 it’s crazy how some of the easily filmed and basic videos go viral😳
Excellent interview Pete, you have a gift there 🌟I think you should do what feels right for you and people will follow, remember you can't please everyone.
I love how honest Paddy was with his answers to your questions 🍺
Thank you Connie. I do like doing the interviews and i’ve 2 more to come. Paddy gave great advice and was totally open. Great
I agree with Paddy. When I saw your name Thairish time I thought it was a news channel. I would change names.
let's see Thomas
Great interview Pete. Both of you touched on things that content creators definitely think about when trying to grow their RUclips channel. I’ve made some videos that receive less than 100 views after moving back to California. However, there are a few videos I made while living in Thailand that received over 4,000 views. It just goes to show that my initial audience was interested in Thailand content, but I need to figure out a way to make content that’s unique but still covers places people want to visit if coming to California. The main difference about making videos in California is that you need to drive everywhere, spend loads of money in one day on petrol (gasoline), food and drink, etc. By the end of one day of filming I’m expected to spend between $80 and $100. Anyways, I’ll keep plugging away and try to develop a style to connect better with my viewers. Any tips for increasing engagement and comments from viewers?
You’re doing a great job Dave. My advice is to talk to your viewers and encourage them to comment. Uploading regularly is also good for building an audience so people don’t forget you
I think you should break the channel between travel and interviews. The interviews are too notch. Not saying I don't like the travel cause I do but it would help define the content.
Fyi I think thairish times is good for the interviews especially if you can get some English speaking Thais involved or your wife conducts them with subtitles.
Thairish travels?
Cheers for the feedback Mark
Cool
Yup! Sometimes the video with the least effort get the most views 🙄
Yep 😩😩
