$2,000 thumbnail competition. The winner will be hired to make the thumbnails for future episodes.

I’d be super excited to work with someone who can show amazing taste and skill. I think they could help the YouTube could grow much much faster.

Excited to see what people make and show me how bad I've been messing up so far ha.

To compete, make 5 amazing thumbnails for my YouTube channel. Details and submission below:

Hiring a full time editor for the podcast.

$100k+.

We'll work together in person in SF.

And work hand in hand to produce what hopefully becomes the highest quality intellectual content out there.

Looking for someone super talented who pays compulsive attention to detail.

And who has the Mr. Beast level understanding (and intellectual context) to make extremely compelling short form out of my work.

The YouTube channel has almost 4x-ed in the last 2 months. With the help of someone amazing, I'm confident we can do this again many times over.

You'll edit the full episode, and make clips, shorts, & thumbnails. You’ll also produce other projects we’re excited about - like for example, video versions of narrations of my essays.

(Btw, for concerned listeners - don't worry, I'm not gonna TikTokify the interviews. The Mr. Beast stuff is about the clips).

Apply below by June 9th 11:59 PM PST.

There's a couple of involved questions, so get started early. :)

$2,000 prize to make the best clips from my previous episodes.

I want to hire the person who wins to make clips for all my future episodes.

I'm hoping this prize helps me find someone really talented who has the intellectual context & taste to make sexy high-quality clips.

Existing editing skills not required (and are easy to learn for the purposes of this competition). So I encourage you to give it a shot!

Job to make clips for future episodes is 8ish hours of work/week.

Share with people you think might be interested!
