discovered an amazing youtube channel called real horror, who does history and crime videos. she only has a few videos on her channel, as she has a full time museum job, and she researches, script writes, narrates, and edits the videos all herself, but she's incredible. her voice is so soothing and smooth, and she is super respectful of any topic she talks about, always getting permission from relatives, or contacting the relevant people to get the facts (if they wish to give them).

but what drives me insane, and seemingly her from a few comments i have seen her make, is that a ton of the comments praise the work of 'the channel creator', but presume that she, the narrator, is not the channel creator and script writer. the say stuff like 'your videos are amazing! and i love the voice of the narrator', and just very clearly viewing the channel owner and narrator as two distinct entities. when she clarifies that it's all her, they're surprised.

you NEVER see this on faceless narrated male documentary style channels. it's presumed until otherwise said that they are the ones who also researched and wrote everything. but for her, they immediately think that a man is running the channel, and she's just a hired voice for a script a man wrote. it's wild to see.

#anyways i highly recommend her #if you like history and true crime but hate the spectacle and glorifying of cases #and like seeing rarely spoken about events covered #and like the bbc documentary style british female voice #you'll love the channel #she only has like 6 videos over two years #but as of recently she's been looking at potentially increasing activity due to the success of the channel

The Defunctland disney documentary is true artistry and I love every way Kevin went about it. But also the moment where that first person who is interviewed moved his camera to demonstrate the notes? The genuine joy you see in him just sitting down at the piano?

It’s beautiful. It’s why artists create. We think about making our legacy survive but that’s long term. That’s for the ‘established’ artist. When you get to the roots, it’s becomes about why we keep returning to this medium! It’s because it sparks joy! Because we can’t think of ourselves doing anything but that. Because even if it’s “bad,” it’s creation. And creation is worth everything.

It also says something about the digital age, and how art has been commodified to an unprecedented extent. The video shows the true joy behind creating, whether that creation gets one persons attention or a million peoples attention.

Create, create , create!! I promise it’s worth it to someone, even if that someone is just you.

Do you know of a good place for witch/witch hunting related resources? It sounds super interesting and the fact that similar cases have happened across time and space (?) makes it a fascinating example of human behavior.

I'm working on compiling all the things I read/watch about it in a separate place so I can have a better answer but until then: pdfs of original witch hunting manuals are pretty easy to find (no copyright laws on something from 1489 etc etc. The Malleus and Discovery of Witches are the most famous but there's also Demonologie or Demonomanie, and all the papal laws about witchcraft), and there are actually a very good documentaries just around youtube! I'd also suggest to look up transcripts of trials, they're very fun

#I'd suggest starting with wikipedia rabbitholes and then watching documentaries about the specific cases you find #infodump #also hi. Slides you the 44 minute History Channel youtube documentary on Matthew Hopkins #[.asks] #ratherbeabrcharacter

So I’m a history nerd, won’t say I know everything but there is always something new to learn and just be amazed by.

Let’s get into it.

There is a old Documentary about Jesse James, saying that he faked his death and lived to 1994. I believe this is the doc.

One of the last thing Jesse James did before he died, allegedly. Is that in 1993, his family was in a bad place financially. Jesse disappeared for about a week and came back with gold bars.

I can see Jack Marston doing this, Getting the treasure from black water because his family needs it. He’s a old man, the last of the Van Der Linde gang. Walks with a cane, swaggers back to the old ranch with his horse. Saddle bags full of loot. When his children ask where he’s been, how he got all this money. Jack grins “y’all never believed me did ya?”

If you were invited to go on a talk show and talk about presidents and presidential history would you do it??

So, in early 2016, a few months before I moved to Los Angeles, a production company flew me down to LA to film a pilot for the History Channel. They brought me in, along with three or four other people, to be a talking head about several different topics. It was a really interesting experience, and I'm almost certain that I was TERRIBLE at it. Not only did the pilot never get made, but they never even reached out afterwards to let me know what happened. I don't even blame them. During the shoot, they asked me a couple of times to act more like a "history bro", and I flat-out said, "No, I'm not going to do that." I wasn't rude about it or anything, but I did tell them that I'm a rabid history buff and that I would hate watching a "history bro" talk about literally anything. Of course, in hindsight, it probably wasn't a great career move to just blatantly disregard their direction the first time I was ever brought in to film something like that. I'm surprised they even paid for my plane ticket back to Sacramento the next day.

Around that same time, I was e-mailed by a different production company and they asked me to make a tape on my own about a Presidential history topic and I'm pretty sure I bombed on that one too. I did something about Presidents who struggled with mental health issues, and on my first take, I basically pulled a Ricky Bobby and forgot what to do with my hands without feeling awkward. The second take was better, but obviously didn't impress anybody. It probably would have been better to not choose something depressing as my first topic.

So, yeah, I'd be totally interested in trying something like that again, but I'm well aware of the fact that I seem to be objectively awful at. Hopefully the producers aren't all trying to call me at once!
