You Tuber Review: Beau of the fifth column
You Tuber Review: Beau of the fifth column
The Pitch:
It is the philosophical duty of everyone to put some skepticism
in the path of our opinions and the opinions of others. That, I’m happy to acknowledge,
was what “Beau” of the fifth column did to me, the first time I opened one of
his videos.
With a beard that would provoke envy in any hipster, a
southern drawl, and pro-gun t-shirt, my prejudices were in top gear. I should
just note, I’m European, so my mind was maybe even narrower going into it, than
an American viewer. So, when I heard a balanced, well researched argument with
a dose of our grandparent’s common sense; delivered in a tool shed, as a
talking head program. I was happier than a hog in whatever that expression is.
Sound and quality:
The format is simple, so it doesn’t have to be too fancy. I personally
prefer my editorials without the flashing green screen, especially those who
use slickness to cover half-baked ideas. You tubers take note.
The sound is so good, I can hear Beau’s plumbing and piping
in the background, so apart from a slightly more common urge to use the little
boy’s room, I can’t complain. If you’re here for the aesthetic, you’re in the
wrong place.
Recommended episodes:
Beau is a Journalist, so he covers what he feels are the relevant stories in the media at the
moment, and I recommend that you just check him out on whatever topic he is
doing.
If you want a jumping off point, his video about shoe
burning, his 100,000 subscriber video episode and his three part discussion of
gun control are all good places to start.
