Episode 21

Since Peter's company was officially established we start off by talking about some of the practical ways anyone who's a videographer/filmmaker/photographer can protect the valuable things that let you do your work. We also talk about "playing the YouTube game" and being careful not to do anything that accidentally hurts the channel that you've spent years creating.
