The Station Is Giving You The Eye...

Hard to believe that it is already time for another look at some under-viewed youtubers curtesy of your Genial Host With The Most, JoeFelice who gives us a glimpse at YouTube channels forwarded by fellow youtubers that should be given a wider audience. This is one of the better features from the Station's 2nd channel.



I really like the choices of genres that Joe mentions this week: a cooking channel, an animation channel and although I'm a dude, there's nothing wrong with promoting a beauty and makeup channel (plus there's the added benefit of seeing the yummy andreaschoice, so that's a win-win).

The first is thetofuguru from Brittany Roberts and the channel has a mere 1,904 subscribers which is surprising given the humor they bring to the cooking area. Watch the video below, which starts off with a takeoff on the boardgame Clue (Cluedo in the UK), and if you like what you see, feel free to tap that subscribe button.



Next up for your consideration: mrdaninsane, who is a talented animator from Israel, and his channel has 5,360 subs (should have more) and about 3 dozen videos posted. If you like animation even a little, then you should love this guy's stuff. Go to his channel and check out some more.



Last, is the channel reviewed by andreaschoice (did I mention she was yummy?) who shows us cutesygirl09's beauty channel. I am no aficionado of makeup and don't watch them much at all, but because I do keep track of who's who in the Top 100, I do watch the odd video of various beauty gurus on YouTube. Most of their makeup advice slips out of my brain pretty quickly, but as a guy, I do remember the pretty ones (actually most of the girls who are really good at this, look amazing before they start applying their makeup).

This girl, cutesygirl09, or Kayla, is definitely very pretty, but she brings some added attractiveness because of the confidence she shows the camera. Anyone who is in front of an audience, live or on video, needs to know that eye contact is one of the most important aspects in whether or not you are successful in making contact with your audience. Kayla does this.



She also has only 1,700 subscribers right now (she had only 60 before this video came out!), but will probably get a lot more. You might also want to check out her blog that she just started last month.

As I've said before, this is one of the Station's better efforts and I think it is probably Joe Felice who brought this idea of highlighting people with smaller sub bases who should be given a hand and showcased to a larger audience.

Joe also mentions that he would like to see more submissions for the intros (I liked this one by pinchpointpro). If you are a musician who can do a simple 10-second jingle with the words "The Station Is Watching You", send it to Joe!

Getting your stuff out there and SEEN by people is one of the hardest aspects of making a career or even becoming moderately successful as a musician or as a youtuber in general. The Station may be offering you a hand. Will you take the hand that's being offered to you?

DeniseVlogs Busts A Move At The Station

If you went to a Halloween party or any party for that matter and there was dancing, would you be ready? Could you show off some epic dance moves? DeniseVlogs asks people at The Station to show off their best dance moves - starting with Mr Danny Diamond (posing as a custodial engineer):



Now Danny can dance, which you can tell from his videos (oh, wait, he made them all private so you can see them anymore), but he does show some moves in this one. And the lovely Ceciley looks pretty good shakin' what her mommy gave her.

And of course, what would a video from The Station be without at least one shot of hiimrawn's butt crack. As far as Joe Felice, when did he become such a tough taskmaster? I always thought Joe was the ultimate nice guy when I saw him, but I guess that was (Using my best Jon Lovitz voice) Act-ting!

The Station's 2 Picks For Awesome Channels You Should Be Watching

I'm really liking this new feature from The Station on YouTube (actually this is from TheStation2, their 2nd channel). Your Genial Host With The Most is of course, Joe Felice and he features YouTube channels with less than 10,000 subscribers that viewers have suggested should be highlighted so they can be seen by more youtubers and others. First, take a look at Joe's video below for more info and then I'll post a video from both of the featured channels.



I've never heard of either of these two channels, so hats off to Joe and The Station for bringing them to our attention. This new feature is very clever on their part, but if you are subbed to Joe's channel, you know he has his insightful moments (I particularly love his political videos - need more of those Joe!) and he has been a great addition to the Station's crew in my opinion.

The first channel that they told us about is called thelittlefears who originate from Canada and currently have 1,955 subs but should be getting more. The only drawback is that although they have 32 videos posted on their channel, they haven't added anything new in 4 months. But it will take you some time to get through those 32 videos and maybe they can be convinced to upload more (subtle hint there). Take a look at one of their videos:



They also have a cool, spooky website called Creepy Pasta that you might want to check out.

The 2nd channel that Joe talks about is DamItsGood808 with Alex Farnham. You have to agree that he is a dead ringer for Jim Carrey from the Ace Ventura movies. Make sure you check out his other videos too. Definitely a thumbs up.



All I can say is well done by The Station for bringing these two channels to everyone's attention and look forward to seeing what they'll find next.
