Wayne (Pelican founder) needs your help with the launch of a new YouTube Channel!!!

Hi everyone. I finally got around to doing what I've been threatening to do for many years now - staring a YouTube channel. For those who might now know who I am, I am the founder of Pelican Parts and this forums site, and I've also written five books on how to repair Porsches (and BMWs) ("101 Projects for Your Porsche 911" is one of them).

I have teamed up with my buddy Sandy, who used to be the co-pilot on Adam Carolla's CarCast podcast way back in the day. Our channel is designed around being slightly funny with respect to cars, tools, shows, etc. There's no real designated topics, there's no agendas or sponsors, and there's no real point!

Anyways - in the past when I've helped people with questions or topics, etc, a lot of people have said "let me know if there is anything that I can do to help!" Well, now is the time - we need 1,000 subscribers in order to officially launch on the monetization platform and doing that will keep the content rolling.

We've got about 20 episodes in the hopper right now with plans for many more. I'm launching here on Pelican exclusively with nine of those twenty episodes. As always, I'm happy to get people's opinions on it - I may not be able to directly incorporate feedback, but it's great to always have it in the back of your mind when creating stuff like this.

Anyways, I'll embed three different videos here to get started. Please like and Subscribe to help us towards our goal of 10,000 subscribers. Warning: the first video might be slightly controversial with some of you!







Thanks,

Wayne

Good luck with your new channel - Subscribed
I watch a lot of YouTube videos, greatest thing since the cell phone but I am turned off by Sandy's negative attitude and couldn't watch one of these all the way through. Maybe blame it on my positive New Years mood.....?

only watched the 959 video so far but I think Sandy was trying to hard to either be funny or find something to complain about.
