His dopamine & serotonin levels would be all over the place. + he probably feels somewhat overwhelmed and bombarded with tons of people tweeting,texting & calling him and maybe sees being on joeys pod as more of a labour than love.

just my thoughts FWIW...

So many mixed feelings about the Sorel pod. It took some stamina to listen to the whole thing, so many mixed thoughts he was throwing around.

I almost feel sorry for him.. It's obvious he 'wants to do good' in the world, but has no idea where to start. Sounds like he is in a pretty big personal battle right now with himself. Some things mentioned by him were very 'out there' and delusional. Reminds me a lot of ADZ's mindset, out there...

Smart guy for sure... Seems like a very nice and likable person, but I can't help but think he is delusional. This 'big picture' thing is odd.. Like wanting to have 'power', talking about 'the system', 'radical movements', etc...

I did some research on a website called fiverr, it`s people doing various freelancer services starting at $5 per hour. I messaged a couple young guys in their 20s who are fluent in both Russian and English and their thing is translation services. They would charge like $25 per hour for a live translation, so I guess having the best 6max NL players is now possible, I would snap donate for the translation if we could get like Trueteller on... gotta be flexible Papi

Interesting interview with Sorel Hope he can stay clean . . .

The other side of the conversation where he was talking about Everything from the Universe to quantum mechanics, and what are we as a level 0 species going to do to survive when the Sun explodes was Really Interesting to Me as these are things I find myself thinking about everyday also, as always much love Pappi . . .

Podcast grind continues papis


Tonight having on Noah Schwartz at 6pm EST

Thursday having back on Doug Polk to catch up on WSOP happenings, winning a bracelet, playing more PLO, Upswing, live streaming, tourney players and more (I think 4-6pm EST)


Will be having on Phil Galfond sometime in Mid-August

Looks like Bill Perkins is going to come on the pod, have to talk with him to set a date for that.

Should be having on Charlie Carrel sometime soon (probably next week)


ITunes is full updated......

Also within your audience theres probably lots of people willing to help you with some of the tech stuff in exchange for some exclusive shirtless content

Even just getting affiliate links on a website and giving the audience a 10 second shout out to go there and check them out should bring in some $. If the listeners aren't willing to support their entertainment, theyre dickheads. If you can build an audience and provide entertainment, you deserve some rewards
I was just looking into upgrading the audio/video and really setting up a super GTO setup on that end similar to a professional broadcast. I'm not sure the direction I am going to go with regards to everything else yet but I don't think it will be the affiliate route.

In the world of the internet, there are models where the creator gets paid in other ways (ad revenue, sponsors, Patreon, etc). It just seems like if you love creative content, you want the creator get to get value out of it -- you want that selfishly because you want it to keep going. I want Joey and the PokerCast to find revenue streams because the content is good and I want them to feel like they have to keep doing it because how else for the Lambo payments? OK, maybe Citroën.
I think I have figured out the answer to this

I would be more than happy to ship you a shiny dollar to watch the pods.
I don't plan on charging for the full podcasts anytime soon. I also don't plan on charging for highlighted version of the podcasts but I do plan on putting together highlighted versions of every single podcast in some capacity in the near future after my epiphany tonight.

If someone was crafty enough they could produce a documentary called the Rise of Fedor with your footage alone.



My favorite part of your podcast is its randomness and the idea that just because it's Monday you aren't forcing content.


Keep up the good work!

YouTube still where you can make the most by running ads over your content, but like SrslySirius said, it is getting a bit harder and SOME (not for all content) CPM's are lowering. This depends on a lot of factors, but your demo shouldn't be too bad. Just gotta get those views up! If you want help on VSEO - try a chrome extension vidIQ or TubeBuddy. I can give some best practices if you want to pm me.

Today YT'ers and YT networks aren't relying on just adsense revenue alone though. They also monetize by:

1. Branded Content - Have some patches or shoutouts or collab on a vid with an advertiser.

2. Merch - Sell some GTO Papi shirts bro - use magic links or spreadshirt for affiliate marketing. Just don't sell Triple Range Merge shirts - dudes never even sent me a free one

3. Premium content - Opt in for YouTube Red - or have another subscription model.

For other platforms:

For your type of content Twitch would be the second best right now - their CPMs are awful though - gotta pump that Cheers money (which should be releasing soon)

Facebook Video - Their monetization platform is in Beta right now with select partners. The partners I know say the CPM's are AWFULLLLL. But still you should syndicate your YT vids on FB in the FB player. Do not embed the YT video.

Amazon Video Direct - You can now monetize here as well but there are not a lot of viewers here. Cool integrations if you are doing merch though.

SnapChat - Don't worry about monetizing here for now. This will change though.

I could go on for days here but hope some of this helps - Make that money Papi

I had many mixed feelings as well. It seems like in many ways he wants to do good and make a positive impact on peoples lives but really has no idea how to do it on the grand scale he thinks he should be doing it. I don't think the idea of starting small and grinding up to something bigger is very exciting to him but that is probably the most realistic way of being able to put himself in a position for that to happen. He did come off nice and likable to me as well. It is pretty hard to ignore all of the allegations and incidents that have taken place with him over the years but I'm not really sure how that impacts the way that I personally view him.

I didn't fully understand/comprehend some of the things he was getting into because I really don't ever think about them but I'm sure there is a large subsection of the population who do. Those people are probably not the people watching my podcasts or in the poker world. I did find some of the things discussed pretty interesting but I'm just not passionate enough about them to really have a viewpoint on them one way or the other.

My biggest desire for wanting to have Sorel on was to find out just what type of person can be involved in so many scandals over the years but still have a pretty good standing in the poker world for the most part. What I suspected going in was very much confirmed after talking with him. I do wish him well and hope he can turn some type of corner that we spoke of.

I've spent the last few weeks watching most of the podcasts papi. You get 4 cards! I mean, come on man, you get 4 freakin cards! I've watched them on YouTube without being logged in, but then I heard on one of them that they don't count as a view, so I will try to remember to log in papi. Awesome job papiiiiiiiii! I'm grinding again after a few years off poker (see my PGC), but your podcasts make it that bit more entertaining. Thanks bro. I'm gonna watch it live today for the first time, so I'll say hi in the chat (FluffyDice100)

Thoroughly enjoying the Sorel Mizzi podcast so far. I'm about an hour in and the best / most interesting part so far just wrapped up where he is talking about how this is a very scary time we are living in - Which I agree with and agree with allot of what he said overall about the topic as a whole. I guess I identified with allot of his thoughts.

Was sad to see what you (Joey) said (or inferred) about the chat...

There has been heaps and heaps of poker related banter on the show which is obv a big part of it - But what makes the show cool is that it shows you who the person behind the "reputation" actually is (mostly) and Sorel, weather he is a great dude or the opposite is clearly analytical / intelligent and went into a somewhat sensitive yet super relevant topic to us all and the chat was like "bro talk poker or gtfo" (?) That sort of proves his point bout' how unaware / alssep certain people are.

Good interview so far J like how you handed that with steeze.
