📣 Because a not insignificant number of people ask, I'll be offering custom video messages. Imagine Cameo.... only not Cameo because it's way cheaper to vibe-code something.

I'll even make Seth Choi say something, if you'd like

Thank you to everyone who supported the animated series and made the big jump over to ‪@TheSeriousShow‬ and subscribed over there! Over the past 15 videos, I have certainly learned a lot about animation. Today marks the end of Season 1, i.e. an arbitrary break when I'm going to run a winter marathon (Houston) and reflect on where to focus next. In the meantime, if you haven't already, please check out The Serious Show. Thank you for supporting all of this serious content! #grateful

After digging into how the Almighty YouTube Algorithm works, we’ve realized the Animated Series deserves its own channel. If you're interested in the animated content, please subscribe here: youtube.com/@TheSeriousShow.

Why? YouTube promotes videos to non-subscribers based on how subscribers engage with that content. To optimize the algorithm for both classic videos and the animated series, it makes sense to segment the audience. This way, classic Serious Runner videos and the Animated Series each get promoted to the audiences that want them (and yes, you can and should subscribe to both!).

A new animated episode drops later this week, so if you’ve been enjoying them, make sure to subscribe here: youtube.com/@TheSeriousShow.

Hi everyone,

Some of you have shared that you're not entirely sure what the animated series is all about, so I wanted to give a bit more context.

This series is my way of bringing to life videos that I’ve wanted to make, but couldn’t produce with live-action because the budget required would be beyond what a small channel could afford.

Animation allows me to create these videos, but it is also a new challenge for me. I’m learning as I go, but I hope you'll check out the videos: www.youtube.com/playlist?list...

I appreciate you supporting this channel in any way you can... and keeping it independent... I really don't want to have to do random product videos to fund this channel... (although I am going to do one with a mini drone because I really wanted it 🤣)

Thank you,
Stephen

As a serious runner, I love to obsess over questionable data. If you have a moment, please consider giving me more data that may or may not be statistically relevant, specifically about this channel:

167 of you voted to make this video again --- so I expect 167 submissions! (well, maybe not. that would be an awfully long video...)

You can find instructions on how to participate here: theseriousrunner.com/pages/year-end-video

In all seriousness, if there are at least a dozen or so submissions, that's enough to put together a year-end video!

Thank you all very much for your continued support of the channel! 🙏 #grateful

As 2023 draws to a close, would you be interested in making another year-end video featuring all of you? (i.e. like this: https://youtu.be/vwtp7LLTsN4 )
