Episode description

Gil is the creator behind the YouTube channel General Knowledge, which he started in 2017 from his home in Lisbon, Portugal. Focused on geography, his channel offers videos on topics like flags, countries, and maps, all inspired by his longstanding interest in the subject, which began through gaming. Over the years, Gil has built a loyal audience who appreciates his clear and engaging approach to complex topics. In this episode, we explore what goes into running his channel, including how he chooses topics, manages monetisation, and handles viewer comments. We also delve into his travel experiences, future plans, and what it's like to navigate the world of full-time content creation.
