I admit, I skipped 2/3 of it. But, "Kelly is a Dude" is hilarious.....and accurate.

I was "very rude" in the last thread pointing out the obvious.... Apparently I wasn't alone. I won't comment on this video since I haven't seen it.
Subscriber numbers, likes and comments will tell the tale if the audience here is right or not.

This was Wayne's comment to our viewing of this episode.
He asked for our comments and then doesn't like anything negative that he hears back. Only wants the population to "subscribe" to get clicks on his Youtube.
What a joke........Whatever, I know he founded Pelican, love his book, but this is the worst case of pandering to a controlled audience I've ever seen.

My first thought is that in most businesses, feedback is extremely important, and sometimes hard to come by. You are finding out if your venture will be well received. The issue that many people have is that you have to accept negative feedback, and not just blame the people giving it. This is exactly the right audience, but the style and content misses the mark. Instead of thinking 'wrong audience' he should be thinking, 'this is great feedback, how can I use this to improve?'

As an example, and there are hundreds - I think Home Built By Jeff does a great job and I watch every episode

He really said nothing wrong. It's obviously the wrong audience for his videos based on the comments above. Like he said, he thought the video was funny, others did not. What's the big deal. Feels like you've thrown a tantrum over a comment that meant nothing.

Personally, I subbed initially, but after a few videos and the spamming of shorts, I unsubbed. I also agree,, Wayne needs a better host. Sandy isn't the right choice.

I liked it Wayne, but you were on defense the entire time!
(and first time I have seen your garage)

Kelly was hot in Top Gun, and then not (and a les-be-an)... oh well, her life.

I didn't know that car was a kit car.

Oh, BTW who was the other guy?

Wangan,
My apologies......Certainly didn't want to give the impression of throwing a tantrum.
Perhaps I misread Wayne's comments.
