ASK ME 55 'FAN' QUESTIONS (will answer in 5Cast #4)
Added 2025-03-29 23:30:37 +0000 UTCHey guys,
Extremely stoked on the positive feedback surrounding 5Cast #2, and am even more excited to drop 5cast #3, which is all about the 'Zizian' cult of (allegedly) homicidal rationalists that emerged from the Bay Area, featuring our first-ever IRL studio guest, documentary filmmaker Jacob Hurwitz-Goodman. It'll drop it on Patreon tomorrow, and I'm considering giving YouTube a taste at some point down the road as well.
Now lets talk regularity -
I think that for a legitimate 'broadcast,' even if not live, some degree of consistency will serve us well. Back in the days of Johnny Carson, his most watched special was the 90-minute Sunday special and it came out like clockwork, so I wanna stick to two episodes a week. On Tuesday, we'll do a 'Tuesday Show' which is pretty much just a weekly video breakdown and general updates, and then our 'Sunday Special' will feature an in-person guest and a deep dive on a topic.
Anyway, for 5Cast #4, which I'll drop sometime next week, I want to answer some fan questions, so if there's something you wanna ask me (and I mean anything), drop your question in the comments here and I'll select 55 of them to answer on-air for our next Tuesday show!

2025-04-07 04:28:08 +0000 UTCWhy is income inequality surging so much since Covid, and how is it affecting the average family in the US vs Europe? Can rapidly expanding economies in Africa follow a different trajectory, or are we simply killing the middle class everywhere? Also, is World War 3 imminent, and would the average, non military-trained person be willing to actively go and kill for his/her country? If it happens, will this conflict be fought in the trenches, or will we all just âpush a buttonâ to make entire cities disappear?

But I just want to say your video on it gave me a sense of hope and a good feeling that there are people out there looking out for him. Itâs good that even though heâs a heroin addict heâs in a community and there are programs offering him help. Thank you for paying attention and you have a life long supporter from me and my family.

2025-03-29 23:44:47 +0000 UTCYo Andrew! Long time lurker and finally a supporter with a steady job. Just wanted to ask you if you'd be interested in covering / documenting skater culture? I'm talking skateboarding specifically, even though it would be interesting to include BMX , scooter and rollerblading. Since you're on the West Coast and have a chance to film something that I might not know about Skater culture out there, I think it would be dope for your channel and audience. Still going to keep watching, and supporting yall đ Yall are some of the best reporters on YouTube, and I always find your videos hilarious and interesting. Much love Channel 5!
jaytm
2025-03-29 23:44:25 +0000 UTCHey Andrew! Curious if you were to ever explore doing a video on the military. Whether itâs the military as a whole, or more so the members in it?

Sawyer Russell
2025-03-29 23:41:17 +0000 UTCSorry to be hot button, but I wanted to ask about your hiatus and the allegations surrounding it. In general, I just want to hear your thoughts, especially coming from where you are now and back to being active but a few questions could be: why did you decide to take the hiatus? what was the biggest struggle during that time? What made you decide to come back? And do you give any credence to the idea that there was some element of conspiracy to it considering your HBO movie had just come out and it came with some definite controversies? Totally understandable if you donât wanna talk about it at all. But Iâm curious. that was a really bad time for you, your fans, myself, and for journalism on the whole. Very much glad to have you back and setting such a great standard for this type and all journalism out there. Thanks!

2025-03-29 23:40:12 +0000 UTCI know itâs a lot to ask, but I would love if Channel 5 had some coverage about the ongoing things in Africa. Sudan defeating a UAE funded coupe, the Gen Z in Kenya fighting back against their government for their futures, and even the forced labor going on in the cobalt mines of Congo. My question is, do you think Channel 5 has a future in covering ongoing major news in the second largest continent, where Western media has always failed?
