| 6/12/26 |  He Makes $8K/Month on YouTube With Less Than 100 Videos | James Kelly doesn't even have 100 videos on his YouTube channel, but he's pulling in £5,000–£7,000 a month ($6K–$9K) from it. In this episode, the man behind some of the best-looking studios on YouTube (and Ed Lawrence's longtime collaborator at Film Booth) breaks down exactly how a small channel funds a real business: high-ticket studio builds, £300 thumbnails, and one video idea that got him re-monetized AND landed 8 client calls in a week. About James: James Kelly helps business creators and experts build professional-looking YouTube studios that position them as authorities and attract high-value clients. A graphic designer turned filmmaker, James spent years as Ed Lawrence's right hand at Film Booth, co-creating Thumbnail University and the studio build courses, before relaunching his own channel as "the studio guy." He now offers everything from AI-powered Studio Vision Audits to full done-for-you studio builds worldwide.

| 6/5/26 |  Quitting Your Job for YouTube: Pros, Cons & Runway With David Voorhies | What does it actually look like to leave a stable corporate job and go full-time as a creator? In this episode I sit back down with David, a returning guest and acrylic paint pouring artist who just walked away from his job as a product owner at a software engineering firm. Here's the part nobody says out loud: he's currently making three to four times LESS than he did at his last interview on the show. And he'd do it again in a heartbeat. About David: David is an acrylic paint pouring artist and full-time creator. What started as a blog in 2019 became a YouTube channel that now pulls in thousands of views per video (with a couple approaching a million), and after seven years of building on the side, he recently left his role as a product owner at a software engineering firm to go all-in. He's launching an AI-built app for acrylic pourers and building out a course and community alongside his channel. Connect With David: YouTube Channel What We Offer Creators Join Creator Communities.

| 5/29/26 |  He Made a Video for His 90-Year-Old Mom. Now He Makes $100K a Year | On the Creators Hub podcast, Dusty Porter interviews YouTuber Rich Bowlin (over 200,000 subscribers with under 250 uploads), a retired attorney and CEO of a religious nonprofit whose channel began after making iPad tutorial videos for his 90-year-old mother; the episode is dedicated to her after her recent passing. Rich explains how early "wisdom" videos flopped but simple iPhone/iPad how-to content for seniors took off, leading to monetization at 1,000 subscribers/4,000 watch hours and a growing side hustle. He describes focusing on a clear niche, using analytics to refine topics, upgrading from basic iPhone filming to a home studio with multiple Panasonic Lumix cameras, and streamlining production with custom Claude-built apps, Final Cut Pro, and AI help for ideas and thumbnails. He shares revenue sources (ads, sponsorships, Amazon affiliates), lessons on underpricing sponsors, and encouragement that YouTube still offers major opportunity with perseverance and improvement. About Rich: Retired attorney. CEO of Religious non-profit. My YouTube journey began when my siblings and I bought my 90 yr old mother and iPad. She struggled using it so I made a short tutorial for her to watch. That video got quite a few views so I ended up making a few more simple videos for seniors on how to use their iPad and iPhone. Should cross 200k subscribers this month. An amaziing journey. Connect With Rich: YouTube Channel /// Website What We Offer Creators Join Creator Communities.

| 5/8/26 |  The Truth About Making Money on YouTube in 2026 | Josh Summers | In episode 499 of the Creators Hub podcast, Dusty interviews entrepreneur Josh Summers from the All Things Secured YouTube channel about building a nearly 431K-subscriber channel through steady consistency, incremental improvement, and testing, especially A/B thumbnail testing. Josh shares the origin of his security focus after being monitored and interrogated in China, and explains his current content strategy prioritizing long-form videos for consistent views and revenue, supplemented by monthly live streams and occasional Shorts. He breaks down how his workflow evolved to start with "packaging" (angle, title, thumbnail, and early payoff) before scripting, and discusses monetization shifts from affiliate-heavy income to primarily sponsorships, including building multi-touch packages. Josh also compares this to his smaller Bible memory channel, where he's building owned products, a paid community, and a live event. About Josh: Josh is an entrepreneur with multiple YouTube channels, podcasts and online communities. He lives and works remotely in Asia where he loves basketball and riding his motorcycle through the mountains. Connect With Josh: YouTube Channel What We Offer Creators Join Creator Communities.

| 5/1/26 |  The YouTube Tools 90% of Creators Are Wasting | This week is a rare double-shot solo episode — two of Dusty's Creator's Corner monologues bundled into one main feed drop. Part one breaks down the underrated trio of end screens, cards, and pinned comments — why most creators waste this real estate, and the simple intentional shifts that turn them into watch-time and session-length engines. Part two introduces the four-part sponsor read framework (Signal → Bridge → Proof → Handoff) — the exact 15-to-30-second window where you either keep your audience's trust or lose it, and the one mistake that can tank credibility instantly. If you've ever felt your end screens, cards, or ad reads were just checkboxes, this episode rewires how you think about all of it.
