We break down how to grow on YouTube by thinking like a viewer, from using the collab feature without breaking the promise to designing for lean-back TV audiences. We also answer listener questions on mixed-format channels, browse vs search, accessibility, and naming your channel.

• why the algorithm serves viewers, not creators
• how to use the collab feature to meet expectations
• where collabs fit in your content mix
• TV viewing habits and lean-back packaging
• AI upscaling and higher-res thumbnails for TVs
• playlists and targeted end screens for binges
• browse vs search and “scary” analytics
• separating podcasts from produced videos
• accessibility cues that boost retention
• naming a channel for memorability and growth
