James Jani creates long form, video-essay-style documentaries about the world of business. Sometimes it's exploring complicated subjects that need to be simplified, like the stock market. Other times, it's doing a deep dive on exploitative industries that prey on those who are ambitious yet naive. 
In this episode, James speaks about his early interest in YouTube, the path that led him to creating a channel, the emotions that come with overnight stardom, his philosophy on content, and where he wants to go next.
