Show Notes

This one goes to 11! This first episode of Season 11 covers a bit of gear talk (including the new Shure Sm7dB) and then dives into the absolute nightmare that is YouTube's Invalid Traffic issue.

This article explains the issue with YouTube advertisers claiming to be misled. Interestingly enough, it appeared about a month before the recent surge of channels being struck with "invalid traffic."
