Max Derrat - How does he balance intellect with entertainment in his videos?: The Halcyon Show
1A segment from my interview with YouTuber, mental health and autism advocate, and one of the most intellectual creators working today, Max Derrat.
Here he tells us how he balances his need to express his intellectual perspective, while also delivering entertaining videos.
"Ladies and gentlemen, My name is Lorne Riseley, host of The Halcyon Show, how are you doing? Today we welcome a man who has produced some of the most sophisticated, nuanced, thought provoking and frankly harrowing content I have ever seen, and has made it a mission of his to see the medium of gaming represented and presented as a legitimate genre of entertainment and media worthy of study and reflection. Having started his channel in 2014 he has amassed over 39 million views and over 330,000 subscribers focusing on making videos focused on exploring topics within videos games, as well as being a vocal advocate for mental health and autism. Please welcome a man whom I have come to know and trust as the last word on philosophy in gaming, the man who says hello to staying yellow, I am profoundly humbled to welcome the one and only Max Derrat."
