MinnMax's Ben Hanson interviews Ralph AKA Skill Up about his rise to YouTube success and how he's using that community to launch a new video game site: thisweekinvideogames.com. You might know Ralph from the Friends Per Second podcast along with Lucy James and Jake Baldino. We talk about the state of games media and how it's likely up to people with a video following to give back to original news reporting about games to keep the larger ecosystem for games coverage healthy. Ralph also offers advice for folks starting out on YouTube, calling back to his earliest days covering Ubisoft's The Division.
