Ep.22 Treat Your Apartment Decor Like YouTube Sets - Creating A Nice Home Aesthetic While Renting

In our last few episodes, we had some deeper conversations about being a content creator and the projects we’re working on, but now it's time to lighten the mood with a special edition of 'That's Friggin Deadly'! We explore our favorite things in an entire episode dedicated to what's been catching our attention lately. Chris unveils his ultimate steak recipe straight from the grill, sharing his passion for Kamado-style BBQs. Meanwhile, Becki delves into her top picks for travel shows and documentaries, and shares insights into her current 'Inspiration Sponge Soak Up Mode', discussing the ebb and flow of creativity.

After we had a super niche video pop off on our YouTube channel, we got to thinking about how following a 1/10 video can lead you into making niche videos you never intended to be in in the first place. This led us to our assumptions on why people might be quitting YouTube, a theory which also seemed from our dread of making video podcasts. We also break down the blessing and curse that is having a joint YouTube channel where one person is a full time creator and the other has a 'normal' day job."

Introducing our new campsite build series, Sleepy Creek! We're discussing the developments on the land we've purchased (spoiler alert: we're building a campsite). We received some playful criticism for sharing a video about clearing our land, and it turns out the "brush hog" vlog became a meme in our relationship. Chris and I delve into how the Sleepy Creek series will differ from The Home Reno series and why we've chosen to present this one in a vlog style rather than a polished show.

As a creator looking out, everyone seems to have their shit together. We reached out to find out what you would like us to discuss, and this question came up: 'Can you talk about burnout and the creative process, the failures behind the scenes that no one sees?' It just so happens that we recently experienced a major fail behind the scenes during our first-ever overland trip. We break down what happened and why in this episode. Becki also discusses what feels like a personal failure in her relationship with photography.

We're recording from a 2-day lake-effect snowstorm, which looks CRAZY on Foreflight! Looking at the storm on radar brings us to today's podcast topic: what’s going on with the Millennial Falcon? Well… we got quite the jarring photo from Robinson of the current state of our bird, so let’s discuss. Chris answers the question, “why overhaul instead of buying new?” He breaks down helicopter economics and how the overhaul is more like a back-to-studs home renovation than getting your car's oil changed. He reflects on his “pipe dream” of owning and flying helicopters, breaks down why we went to Robinson for the overhaul, and talks about how we ended up with the unicorn aircraft from a hog hunting outfit in Texas.

Is this sponsored? Who pays for this? We're delving into the logistics behind funding our passion projects, both with and without sponsors. We also discuss the merits of trying things outside your niche, pondering on the content our YouTube algorithm serves us (are these trends?), and unraveling the mystery of why Thomas Heaton is an anomaly. Becki shares why she dislikes watching camera gear videos but can't get enough of camp gear videos, while Chris explores his thoughts on why he believes the latter are so popular.
