Hello everyone my name is Danny Burke and welcome back to Whats Good - the show for
the busy viewer.
Firstly we're gonna talk about Elle Darby - if you havent heard of her, shes the British
beauty blogger who sent out a message to a hotel in Dublin called the White Moose hinting
that she wanted to stay there for free in exchange for free accomodation.
The hotel owner released his reply to her which was a huge shutdown basically like - who
do you think you are, whos gonna pay for your stay?
What the hell is a social influencer?
Philip DeFranco did a great break down on the whole story, But you guys already know
about Philip DeFranco, I found a great up and coming YouTube commentator with a bit
of a different angle Wild Spartanz.
Right now hes only got 157 thousand subscribers but he really deserves more.
I say only but its still a lot more than me, ahem …
He really sticks up for Elle initially and argues that although she might have seemed
a bit entitled to make the demands - she really didnt do anything wrong and that the hotel
owner has taken it a bit too far.
I can kinda see what he means I mean apparently the hotel owner has banned all bloggers from
the hotel now - I think its a bit tongue in cheek - I think hes trolling a little bit
- I really don't think theres a way to ban people who write on the internet unless you
do a crazy background check on them.
But then he goes on to completely slam her reply video to the whole situation in which
she claims she shouldnt be getting so much heat because shes a 22 year old female.
WildSpartanz takes a look at why your age and gender doesnt really mean anything when
it comes to getting flamed by the internet - anyone is fair game.
What do you guys think of that?
Do you agree with that?
Are there certains groups of people that should be immune to getting hate because of who they
are?
Or is anyone fair game on the internet?
Ive not really made my mind up on the whole situation - I just hate the term influencer.
Nothing makes me cringe more than hearing people describe themselves as influencer.
Anyway, go check out WildSpartanz chanel after this video - hes only 17 and I think hes great.
He could be the next Philip DeFranco but more foccused on YouTube news and a bit more edgy
and opinionated.
Im sure he wont like that description but thats all Ive got …
And his thumbnails are really slick - Im kinda jealous - dam … mad thumbnail envy.
Theres a channel called Today I Found Out - and if you arent subscribed, I don't know
what youre doing.
Every single day they post videos amazing 5 minute videos about the most random stuff
- I don't know where they get their ideas from but they just work.
Here weve got a video looking at whether or not being tired can kill you.
Heres one about why Vladimir Putin walks so weird - that one got a lot of dislikes for
some reason - Im not gonna say it was Russians paid to to downvote it - because that would
be crazy - and I also don't want them to downvote this video …
Anyway they uploaded a video last week called -The McDonald's Monopoly Scam: Operation
Final- … its all about McDonalds Monopoly - you know how it works, you buy something
from McDonalds, you peel off the sticker, oh look, youve won some fries or a can of
coke.
Yay.
Have you ever heard about someone winning a car, or the million dollar cash prize?
Thats obviously a lot rarer.
Well Today I Found Out tells the amazing story of how in the 90s - the game was totally rigged
and nobody knew it.
There was a guy who worked for the monopoly promotion company who was stealing all
the valuable pieces and getting his friends to cash them in in exchange for some a share
of the money.
He made millions off this and nobody else had a clue.
Everyone one else was just happy to win a large fries - or even a medium.
Id be happy to win a medium.
But the story gets even more crazy when the FBI gets involved to track down this mcdonalds
monopoly mad man - thats my name for him.
I don't think the FBI called him that.
Maybe they did.
The full story is insane, go over to Today I Found Out to hear it and subscribe because
they have stuff like this every single day!
I don't know how.
Im starting to think they must just make it up some days.
While were talking about burgers - Good Mythical Morning put up a video the other day called
the $205 Big Mac Test where they try and recreate the classic big mac but using insanely expensive
replacements for each component of the burger.
Now Im gonna level with you guys, normally I don't watch these cheap vs expensive kind
of videos but this one pulled me in because I was like, how are they gonna make a fancy
version of a big mac - isnt that a bit like putting lipstick on a pig?
Kinda pointless?
But no, they really do find some expensive replacements.
CLIP.
The final result is pretty impressive, it made me hungry.
I don't need to shout out Rhett and Link, theyve been killing it on YouTube since I
was kid and Good Mythical Morning is - its not what Id personally watch but I don't think
its aimed at me.
What I will say though is its the closest thing YouTube has to an actual breakfast TV
show - obviously they know that, thats what they were going for - but if for some reason
you havent watched them before and that sounds like youre kinda thing, go and check them
out.
They also upload like 3 times a day sometimes.
Its insane.
You live in a house right?
Probably.
Do you wanna learn how to make a wooden hut from scratch and then live in it?
Becaue Primitive Technology has a new video of him doing just that.
This guy is one of my favourite finds on YouTube EVER.
Every video is him silently walking into the woods and making things with his bare hands
and the natural environment around him.
Some of his more popular videos are of him building a tiled roof hut or a bow and arrow
- they have 45 and 30 million views each - theyre insane
The only downside for his 7.1 million subscribers is he just doesnt upload very often - mainly
because hes like, living in the woods.
But oh am I lucky, he uploaded this hut building video last week and its just an instant classic.
MAKING STONES CLIP.
Even watching him make the tools in silence is hypnotic.
CLIP.
Anywhere theres a lot of tree bashing and branch snapping untill finally it starts to
come together.
CLIP.
I wont spoil the finished product for you because I want you to go and see just how
amazing this guy is.
Im telling you, when the zombie apocalypse happens, this guys is gonna be fine.
It will just be another day at work for him.
Me on the other hand.
Im screwed.
Hey man, welcome to the tribe, Im the hunter, Amy here is the guard, Steve makes the shelters
and Jess makes our weapons - what can you do?
I can, sit in front of a camera and talk.
For about 5 - 10 minutes.
I can usually go longer if I have a glass of water.
My throat gets a bit dry.
… get out.
You guys like merch, you like my merch?
This isnt actually merch, its just an outfit I wear - this guy loved it.
I apparently dress like a homeless person and the chain around my neck is the key my
chastity belt.
Thats actually the look I was going for, Im flattered.
But theres a channel called wavywebsurf - only has 10k subscribers which is criminal because
hes very funny.
In his latest video titled your merch sucks - he goes through a whole bunch of big YouTubers
like H3H3, Pewdie Pie, Logan Paul and rates their merch stores out of 10.
CLIP.
Its one of those videos that I laughed out loud at and then instantly was like - why
didnt I think of this?
Brilliant idea for a video.
I kinda want him to rate my homeless person chastity belt outfit.
Gotta be a solid 4/10 right?
Also - Im sure many of you have seen the new animation that came out a few days ago from
TheOdd1sOut - its a great little animation by him about how much he struggled with spelling
at school.
CLIP.
He has the full package, he can animate, hes a great
story teller, hes funny and he has a cool voice.
There are some people out there who are great but you don't wanna hear them talk for longer
than about 5 minutes.
TheOdd1sOut isnt one of those people - this video has already racked up almost 7 million
views and I think its because its something we can all relate to.
We all know what its like to be self conscious about something at school and feel like were
the only ones who find it difficult.
Another thing I love about this channel is that - hello - its an animation video at the
top of trending in 2018.
Thats amazing.
I remember back in 2009 when there were loads of animation videos around but then YouTube
changed their whole algorithm to reward channels that upload longer videos and more often and
animation channels got screwed.
Sometimes animated videos take 2 weeks to make and theyre 3 minutes long - they just
couldnt survive on YouTube anymore.
The Odd 1s Out gives me hope that yes, its harder for some content to exist on YouTube
than others - but as long as theres an audience for it - theres always a chance.
Go and follow this guys channel - I guarantee theres a video we can all relate to.
And on that note, I think it might be time to say bye for now.
All the links to everything Ive talked about can be found in the description box below.
Go and watch them now and let me know what your favourite was.
Don't forget to watch my last video if you want some more reccomendations for you, the
busy viewer - my name is Danny Burke - and that … - was whats good.
