Sinopse

The founder of the biggest YouTube skateboarding channel is a Scientologist. Has that fact become public, explaining the channel's drop in popularity over the past few years? Was it the money he spent climbing the rungs of this cult (and not on his skaters and staff)? Or was it just the normal life cycle of a YouTube channel?Rather than reviewing a documentary, this time we’re examining the handling of this story through several YouTube explainers and exposes. What do these have in common with real docs? Do we get any closer to understanding what happened with Aaron Kyro and Braille Skateboarding?Videos discussed during this episode:https://youtu.be/uEk_pc0xVYc?si=hdfiZY6W_hF2aMuEhttps://youtu.be/V-GIyKIlL9g?si=7aOy3qXiK4Vzf55hhttps://youtu.be/ZF0p1aXqm8M?si=gmCxuRmGNznwSQzWJoin our Discord for free at goodcompanydiscord.com!Check out our gym (Third Street Barbell) at ThirdStreetBarbell.com https://www.thirdstreetbarbell.com/ and subscribe for updates about our apparel line at goodcompanyapparel.com https://3
