Our 50th episode! We're thrilled to share the occasion with Maya from her channel KioshiWarrior this week and dip our toes into the world of music reactions. Maya started her YouTube career with storytime videos, vlogs and music reactions as her main focus. Over the last year she has made the effort to expand the scope of her work to cover film and tv reactions as well and recalibrate how she wants to promote artists on her channel. Maya's stylish and hilarious reaction edits are only eclipsed by her courageous spirit to use her platform to bring awareness to larger social issues she feels is her obligation to speak up for.
