I'm Angelo, AKA Dr. T — a sassy, funny PhD with intellectual whims and curiosities that a travel channel just couldn't contain.
So welcome to my symposium and emporium of all things media, culture and gay: books, movies, television, video games, social issues, politics, and more!
Right now I'm diving into Heated Rivalry with a series of "reactionalysis" videos and the occasional Let's Play video on my Twitch channel — but this channel will grow and flourish organically alongside gay and pop culture.
Case and point: my newly launched Podcast "Dr. T: The Gaymer and Film PhD". Here I'll be hosting interviews with local and international creatives and content creators. Video versions will be on this channel, while audio-only versions will be on Spotify, Amazon and Apple!
You can also find me over on '"ngelo From The 416 - The Gay Solo Traveller" for travel content and walking live streams.
Are you ready? Then Let's Play!

Survey Highlights version released today! Link to video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGwGz...
Hi everyone. Today I released a "highlights/condensed" version of the initial "reactionalysis" survey video. This version is about 30 minutes and quickly goes over all the responses. Sorry it took so long to put this together. I have a number of initiatives underway and this just ended up on back burner longer than I anticipated.
If you didn't get a chance to watch the full survey response video, or if you didn't want to a watch a 1.5 hour long video on the survey results, but you're still interested in learning about the survey results, this video is for you!
Enjoy!
Angelo

Updated Heated Rivalry Survey is now Live!
Link to survey: forms.gle/SV5bCUZix4Mtd9ir9
Hi everyone! Doing a bit of a soft launch via the community page. I'll put together some additional media/videos to better promote the survey, but I wanted to give subscribers a first look at the updated/modified survey.
Questions have been changed, added and a few have been removed. Let me know what you think!

First off: A very big thank you to everyone who completed the survey!
Secondly: I've completed an updated draft, and I'm hoping to release it by this weekend (May 1st-3rd).
Thirdly: The contribution of those who completed the survey cannot be understated. Your feedback was instrumental in the survey's much improved redesign.
I added several more questions, including questions on Canada/Canadian culture; queer representation/media consumption; and parasocial fandom/attending fans events.
I also modified all but 2 of the short answer questions and turned them into multiple choice/checkbox/scale questions, thereby overcoming my biggest hurdle: turning qualitative data into quantitative data. This modification now allows me to confidently promote the survey and collect information from thousands of people without the stress of having to individually read through short answer responses.
For that, I thank you all :D
Fourthly, I've decided to forgo a livestream chat/deep dive review, simply given the preference for a pre-recorded video/analysis (see previous post/poll).
Fifthly: I appreciate the survey results video is loooong, so I'm releasing an edited highlights/condensed version that's about 30 minutes in the next week or so.
I'm including some snippets of some of the new questions as well as the modified ones to give you a sense of what the updated survey looks like. Hopefully, you'll be inspired to fill out the survey once more :)
More to come soon!

Is anybody interested in me doing a Live Stream chat about the Heated Rivalry Survey? Maybe even deeper dive together by going through the excel spreadsheet?

The Results Are In and The Fans of Heated Rivalry Have Spoken!
Link to survey results video: https://youtu.be/jkkwgoDPcAs?si=e5Y1U...
Hi Everyone!
So last week, I was going to take a look at the survey results, but I decided that instead of reviewing the responses and writing about them, I should do a kind of "reaction video" where I react to (and analyze) the data.
So that's what I did!
The uploaded video is largely unedited (although I did edit out some content for brevity's sake) and FYI it is rather long (about 1 and a half hours), but I see it as a slow burn journey for survey takers and hardcore fans.
With that said, don't worry, I'm already working on some short videos as well as a "condensed version" that I'm hoping to get down to about 30 mins (no timeline yet on their release though) for those who don't have the time to watch this extended version.
Either way, enjoy! And please do comment (and like and subscribe).
Angelo :D
