22. The History of YouTube, Part 1
Do you know why the YouTube logo is red? Any thoughts on what Janet Jackson has to do with the creation of the platform? Oh YouTube, the website we know today as a resource for your instructional videos on how to make everything from cabinets to bongs, or watching video game walkthroughs, or perhaps even comedy sketches, started with a completely different reason in mind. In this episode we walk through how YouTube became YouTube (the founders and what their intentions were), and the early influencers of the platform, people like Brookers, one of the original creators who became huge and then whose content is now largely gone. We get into it.

Welcome to the world of animated avatar streamers & Influencers. From the dawn of their creation in Japan with Tokimeki Memorial, a video game that created one of the first VTubers, to Code Miko, a current Twitch streamer who is pushing the bounds of what it means to be a VTuber and constantly breaking the rules to do it, we’re exploring the evolution of these VTubers. And with it, the discovery that sometimes people’s identities are sometimes more important as avatars than their real life identities.
Customer Reviews
Great Insight
I really enjoy the different perspectives each host brings to the table. As someone chronically offline, the majority of these topics are entirely new information for me. Interesting to hear the old internet described through a lens of nostalgia that I myself did not possess. I’ve only ever listened to the audio though, so maybe I should try to catch the stream as well. Great job!
Great concept, even better hosts
This is like a portal back to the most nostalgic era in my life- the dawn of the internet! Not only are the hosts of OTOTI preserving early online memories in a (sometimes wacky, sometimes poignant) audio time capsule, it’s funny and thoughtful- the two things I most look for in a podcast.
