🎯 Reach quality

Subscriber activation · Modest

Share of subscribers who watch a typical recent video (avg views ÷ subscribers) — the real reach behind the subscriber count, and a quick check on whether those subscribers are still active rather than a vanity number.

Recent vs all-time

-63%

Recent videos average 7.4K vs an all-time 20.2K/video — recent uploads run below the all-time norm — much of the lifetime views sit in an older catalogue.

2.2K–10.9K views

Median 4.7K — the reliable floor a brand can expect, not just the headline average.

About

I’m Tom Powell Jr., a Gen X creator from the Chicagoland area offering straightforward, unfiltered commentary from the second half of life. This channel covers politics, social issues, Gen X culture, parenting, travel, cannabis culture, Chicago-area factoids, and food—delivered with honesty, sarcasm, and zero pretense. I don’t filter my language. This channel is not safe for kids and probably not safe for work. If you’re easily offended, this may not be your channel. What You’ll Find Here • Gen X political commentary • Social issues and cultural criticism • Cannabis conversations without stigma • Parenting from a Gen X perspective • Travel, food, and Chicagoland culture • Honest discussion without talking points Mailing adress: PO Box 747 Channahon, IL 60410 Click the link below for my website, links to my other social media accounts, links to my store, my podcasts, my services, and more.
