One of the main reasons I became a member was actually just to deny YouTube the revenue, and watch directly. But if there’s significant lag between when the videos show up on YouTube vs BillWhittle, I’ll end up watching on Youtube after all.

Ian, the videos are hosted at YouTube, for now. We get a small amount of revenue from YouTube ads, but more importantly, YT provides a way to reach people who won’t come to our website, or Rumble, etc. Our Members are helping to fund the production of these shows to reach many people who don’t pay, but don’t get this kind of message anywhere else.
As for the lag, Bill shoots his MB2A videos mid-morning Pacific time and immediately posts them to YT. I post them to the website during my lunch break at my other full-time job (where I am right now). Our Right Angle shows appear at this site an hour before they go live on YT.
Thank you for your Membership.
You have to start separation from YT while it works. Put the video on several places, add links to them under the YT and text inspiring people to sub there too. The war involves YT’s masters and they will take steps as soon it gains any traction.
Also please tell Bill to stop banging on the mic. (Or postprocess the audio…).
Apparently they tried to embed Rumble but the code messed up the posts. Also the Rumble videos don’t seem to be monetising properly so they don’t get any income until 2 weeks after posting which kind of misses the boat when you need to be relevant to current news: so for now they’d rather stick with youtube and at least get the revenue from that.
