Show Notes:

With almost 20 combined years of YouTube under their belts, The Professor and JLK are some of the most experienced veterans in the MTG content space. Both channels have grown enormously since they began, but it hasn’t always been a simple or easy journey. Today, the two friends sit down to give you a look behind the curtain, discussing the realities of content creation and the struggles that they’ve encountered along the path of building and running a business. You can’t get this perspective anywhere else, so come and watch with us!
