32:28 Final thoughts
1) YouTube is eating all media:
• 99% of TV shows would flop on YouTube
• Platform-specific content is crucial
• MrBeast: "We are not Hollywood"
2) A-player mentality:
• Only hire obsessive, coachable people
• B-players can be trained, C-players must go
• "There's only room for A-players here"
3) Re-engagement strategy:
• Hook viewers at 3-minute mark
• Use spectacles that only MrBeast can do
• Example: Carl watching Josh in prison video
4) Data-driven content:
• Creators are data scientists, not just entertainers
• 60M views = same as presidential debate
• Obsess over audience retention graphs
5) Constraints fuel creativity:
• Don't rely on big budgets
• Example: Year's supply of Doritos is more engaging than $20k cash
• "Creativity is the answer, not money"
6) Communication is key:
• Define when to use in-person, email, or text
• No excuses, move on mentality
• "Late" isn't in MrBeast's dictionary
7) Consultants are cheat codes:
• Leverage expert knowledge
• Example: Call previous world record holder
• "Consultants are a gift from God"
8) Brand deal integration:
• Make ads part of the content
• Avoid boring, scripted brand mentions
• Goal: No viewer realizes it's an ad
