Listen to me talk unscripted for 1 hour about how I got started on YouTube and a little about the last 10 years.

In this video, a re-make of my first ever video, uploaded June 23, 2013, I ask the seemingly simple question: how many countries are there in the world? Turns out the answer is a bit more complicated than it seems!
