I made this Q &A community post when we hit 500k subscribers!
2
And now.. we've hit 600k subs.
3
Well, better late than never.
4
First question...
5
Why are you dumb?
6
Rude.
7
How do you make science so funny and exciting?
8
Huge fan, by the way.
9
Thank you.
10
I genuinely think science has always been exciting.
11
But maybe the problem is learning can sometimes feel like...
12
Oh yeah that makes sense.
13
I try to make everything in my videos understandable for folks of all levels.
14
It's a bit of a seesaw, and I'm still working on it.
15
Well, there was this one day where I woke up and my lung decided to explode by itself!
16
I survived, I mean obviously, but 3 out of 10 experience would not try again.
17
It happened again.
18
fight.
19
A garden slug.
20
Or like an earthworm or something.
21
Oh but you said it was hostile.
22
Hmm.
23
Can it be like a hostile slug?
24
Honestly, most predators are just too OP.
25
They all have crazy adaptations designed for killing you as efficiently as possible.
26
That's why I'm happy directing that terror onto someone else.
27
For your enjoyment.
28
Can you give that dude who you use as an example a break?
29
Are you really sure you want this?
30
I mean, I did have...
31
All these exciting videos planned, but...
32
If you really want me to give them a break, I could, I mean, it's up to you.
33
Maybe drop a like, or a subscribe, please?
34
That is a great question, Wax darling, well done!
35
How long does it take to make one video?
36
Well, I actually time track every video.
37
It varies quite a bit, but for every one minute of video you see, there's roughly 15 to 25 hours of work behind it.
38
So that's anywhere between 200 to 300 hours of work per video.
39
This includes all the research, writing, audio, storyboarding, animation, and video editing.
40
My production process is super spaghetti as well.
41
I'm constantly jumping back and forth to review, edit, and re -record things to get videos up to a standard I'm kinda happy with.
42
Writing is definitely the slowest and most difficult part for me.
43
Like my mail video took 22 separate drafts just to complete the script.

Take advantage of advanced tech, like guided missiles, smoke screens, night vision devices, and more.
54
There's no need for health bars with the unique damage model.
55
Shoot their tank tracks and you take away their mobility.

So I do have a special helper cat who reviews my scripts and provides feedback.
84
Other than that, I do everything else myself.
85
Do you have a girlfriend?
86
Do you have a wife?
87
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do you despise spiders?
88
I realized just how amazing they are.
89
And now, they're oddly cute?
90
Ugh, I can't believe I just said that.
91
They're just like us, trying to survive the cold, harsh world.
92
It's not their fault that they have eight hairy legs and giant fangs with venom dripping down them.

100
How do you get ideas for your videos?
101
Love your channel.
102
Thank you.
103
Things just randomly pop up.
104
Usually I hear something.
105
Hey, hey you.
106
What if you mailed someone?
107
Like a person.
108
Like what if you mailed a person?
109
Or when I'm pacing around like a crazy person, which I do a concerning amount, something will just hit me out of nowhere.
110
I have an idea!
111
Video topics are everywhere, but what I'm really looking for is an interesting or unique angle.
112
Like, I don't think many people would click on "Why I like Hercules Beetle".
113
Instead, make him terrorize a little guy in a coliseum, and now I'm invested!
114
Woo!
115
Get him!
116
paid, we pay in exposure only.
117
How does the stickman guy keep coming back when he's dead?
118
I've got a bunch of 'em, and I rotate them between videos.
119
Wee hee hee yeah!
120
My subjects need to be in roughly okay shape, so that I can extract the most entertained value from them.
121
If they're too stressed or too like, dead already, that would be boring.
122
When they're on break, they usually spend their time floating around in these test tubes.
123
Or the really problematic ones are archived in storage.
124
Do you have any advice for aspiring creators?
125
It may look like this channel was an overnight success, but before I assume this mighty form, I made about 40 animated videos over 7 years.
126
They're all deleted now by the way, but most of those videos barely hit 100 views.
127
And like, 11 of those views were from me refreshing the page.
128
But throughout those years I didn't stop.
129
I kept creating, I kept trying new ideas, and most importantly, I kept improving my video creation skills.
130
experimenting now, trying to improve a little with each upload.
131
In short, keep making videos.
132
The faster you put stuff out there, the faster you get feedback, and the faster you can improve.
133
And then there'll be more cool stuff on the internet for me to consume.
134
Why are you so cute?
135
Doggo blush?
136
Doggo blush now!
137
Plushies?
138
Will you make a plush?
139
When will you make plushies?
140
Please make a cute plushie!
141
Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe you Hi dumb doggo, I love your videos.
142
Thank you.
143
My question is, how do you decide what facts to include in your videos?
144
Are there things you wanted to include but had to cut out?
145
Ugh, this is one of the most painful parts of the process.
146
So much content is culled during the reviews.
147
Because too many facts can feel dense and overwhelming.
148
Like in the fossils video, I had a whole section explaining polymerization, which is how gooey resin turns into semi -gooey copal, which turns into zero gooey amber.
149
And I was like, "Wow!
150
I sound like a complete nerd!
151
This is great !" And then Kat came along and called it boring.
152
And as usual, she was right.
153
Are you British?
154
I certainly am not, sir.
155
Pfft!
156
I hate tea.
157
Quick question: How do you eat your cereal?
158
Cereal first, then milk, or the opposite?
159
Only true cereal connoisseurs would understand that the best part of eating cereal is drinking the cereal -flavored milk at the end.
160
Pfft!
161
Are you British?
162
Pfft!
163
So, to optimize for that experience, first I massage the cereal in the bowl to break it into tiny pieces.
164
This increases its surface area, so when I pour in the milk, more cereal bits dissolve into it.
165
"Creating a more potent, delicious milk." I guess I do put the cereal in first.
166
It would be kinda weird otherwise.
167
"Your cereal, sir." If you weren't a YouTuber, what would you be?
168
I would be...
169
"Sir." for a really long time, so I would have kept trying until something worked.
170
Or I guess until I died.
171
But I was working as an engineer as my day job, so that's what I'd be doing.
172
What's your favorite part of being a YouTuber?
173
I get to set my own schedule.
174
Worst part of being a YouTuber?
175
I have to set my own schedule!
176
Alrighty, there were a bunch of frequently asked questions, so I'm gonna answer them all now.
177
Why are you a dog?
178
Something about torturing a mini -human just feels a bit more okay if I'm a cute dog.
179
guy, then it would be despicable!
180
But it's all good if I'm a dog.
181
What's your name?
182
It's weird calling you Dumb Doggo.
183
Like, is your first name Dumb?
184
That's a dumb first name, MILO!
185
Call me...
186
Milo.
187
What do you use to make your videos?
188
Here's everything I use: hardware.. and software.
189
What inspired you to make YouTube videos?
190
Originally, it was all the storytime animators, like Domix and Jaden Animations,
191
then later on, more educational channels like CGP Grey and Salmonella Academy.. oh, also this guy.
192
Are you what people would call...
193
a furry?
194
Hmm...
195
I'd say I'm more fluffy than furry.
196
I am a well -groomed doge.
197
Are you British?
198
Thank you for all the questions!
199
I answered more in the comments here, so head there right after this if you want more A's to your Q's.
200
I couldn't have gotten this far without all of you.
201
Like, literally.
202
Without you, I'd be in a white, empty void talking to nobody.
203
Well, I guess I'm technically talking to nobody, sitting here in my room, all alone.
204
But it does feel like you're here with me.
205
Okay, that's kinda creepy.
206
Can you like, go away?
207
I'm trying to make a video here.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
