    Hey Brad! Many people must be thinking.... why so much effort doing all this animation, take the time to do such a huge work, and content and Jokes, why not just to film yourself explaining.... but for those who doesn't understand what you're doing, all what you do, in my case for example, took me to draw with my kids, show this videos to them and have sooooo much fun, they call you teacher Brad and ask me every week If there's a new video, we laugh a lot with your jokes and we all learn!!! And actually everytime I grab my sketch book I remember your voice and the character's voices and laugh alone and remember all what you said... thank you for all this...
