Right...so do I think I'm edgy? Or am I 'controlled opposition'? Or am I just a guy who has a YouTube channel, and Katy got in touch on Twitter, and we decided to have a chat?
I don't have evidence that shadow-banning on YouTube is a thing. I can't say for sure, but I don't think it happens - and every time someone complains about being shadow-banned, I check their channel and see immediately that it needs a LOT of work.
I gave Kellie JK pages and pages of YouTube advice (after she asked). That may sound patronising - and I don't know if she'll implement it - but I'm good at YouTube. YouTube is a skill in and of itself, and I work 20 hours a day on it; I've spent years now researching and testing things on it. I still get it wrong a lot, though.
A lot of people are great speakers, but there's a LOT of hard work and knowledge required to 'YouTube' well. I said in an ad that I'd been shadow-banned, but it was tongue in cheek. The original had me then say 'not that I believe in that' - but it got cut for time in editing. Stuff like that happens sometimes; it's not malicious, it's not some big conspiracy. It's a mistake. It happens.
All of that enough for you? (Obviously not, it never is!)

Happy to explain!
1. Subs is just a vanity metric, and means little. This channel is 3 months old, so has gained 30k subs per month so far. Even so, it's not relevant: look at the average view count of each video - that's what matters. My channel's videos typically get 100k-500k views, sometimes more. This one with Rory might not do as well because it's a bit 'different', but we'll see.
2. This is my second channel. My other one has 300k subs and has been going for 4 years. I worked incredibly hard in that time, and made all sorts of contacts. Much of the revenue from my other channel was initially used to pay for the studio for the new one, as well as other costs, such as filming, editing and guest booking. I've never received even a penny of funding, or family support or anything like that. I worked two jobs, on minimum wage, for the first year.
3. I used to make and present documentaries for HBO and then the BBC, which helped me get guests early on. I taught myself to speak 5 languages, and made documentaries around the world - Dawkins loved my Argentinian exorcist doc for the BBC.
4. There's also the audio version of the podcast, as well as revenue I bring in from my book deal with Pan Macmillan, and several supporter channels (Patreon, Locals, YT Memberships & Apple Subscribers). I'm occasionally paid for speaking engagements, and YouTube itself brings in good money so that this new channel pays for itself now.
All of that is to say - don't jump to conclusions re conspiracy theories (who is 'behind' it). As for derivative, I've been doing this for years. Hope that helps.
