In this conversation, jREG (Greg Guevara) discusses starting a YouTube channel and the challenges of maintaining a fragmented identity. We talk about the importance of creating unique art and making videos that no one else can replicate.
jREG's satire is often misunderstood, but he believes that if viewers 'get it,' he hasn't done his job properly. He aims to provide negative value and deconstruct viewers' perspectives.
The conversation also touches on the need for community among YouTubers and the Toronto studio that Greg is a part of. The podcast ends with plans for future collaboration and a visit to the studio.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
