I hit 2.75 million Subscribers on YouTube!!

To celebrate, I asked for questions from YouTube, Twitter and Instagram, so here’s another 90 minutes of me trying to answer as many as possible.

Expect to learn whether I'll bring Bernie Sanders on the podcast, what I think about women's value to the world, why my forearms are this size, how to deal with loneliness, whether I'll release merch, why I'm a large emo kid, my advice for people going through a tough time and much more...
