Love the editing and overall style and content of your videos. Do y'all plan on doing a behind the scenes for this channel? It'd be awesome to learn about where your individual crew members went to college, where you get your music, your overall process, or whatever you'd like/be able to share with your audience.

Why what is the net I hate when there's no nets😭😠😠😠😠😠
