In this episode, Sean interviews Given, the creator behind the YouTube channel Channel Kirby. Channel Kirby offers creative, thoughtful, and polished commentary on the Kirby series, and people have noticed, with some of the channel's most popular videos reaching over 100,000 views. In our conversation, Given shares how he got started with the channel, some of his YouTube strategies, his favorite Kirby games, and what kind of presence Kirby has in Germany, his home country. And of course we ask the question all listeners are wondering: could you make a hour-long episode or video about Kirby Slide?
