In this Podcast I chat with Mike from Gamer's Little Playground, a hugely successful channel that primarily creates video game movie adaptations for almost any game you can think of. With over 1 billion views and 2 million subscribers, Mike has done an incredible job of turning his passion into a thriving business and we talk about his business philosophy and strategies along with his history. This one should hopefully be interesting for followers of my channel as you see the perspective of a much more naturally business-minded individual who unapologetically sets himself business goals and goes after them with everything he has. In hearing about our stories and sometimes different philosophies I am hoping you will learn something about the business of Youtube and what it takes to make it on the platform.
