00:00hello this is Taylor welcome to what I'm turning into a what I spend in a day in New York City
00:12you might know the popular version what I spend in a week in New York City but it's just 24 hours
00:17today and I'm filming this because I have some fun bopping around and some errands and all that
00:22good stuff to do in New York City today and I have a feeling it's gonna add up a wee bit it's an
00:27overcast lovely day in New York I I gotta address it I don't know if you guys will give a hoot at all
00:33but I couldn't find my regular sunglasses the ones I wear every single day for those who don't know
00:40these are the ones I wear every single day couldn't find them this morning but it's an overcast day and
00:44that's actually that's when you need sunglasses the most you know hello squirrel wow so agile that's
00:51when you need them the most because the sky is white not blue and so more reflective meteorology
00:56expert Taylor reporting for duty but anyways I had to leave my house with these kind of catty ones
01:00that I have they're fun but I feel like I'm cosplaying mean girl you know what I mean
01:06always a fun corner that one gritty street art East Village cool all right I will shut up now and let
01:18you guys look around but I should show you this townhouse in East Village is the one that Led Zeppelin
01:24used on the cover of that one album you know there it is right there fun fact all right
01:33I would love to try one of these because you guys are known for the cloud thing right thank you
01:48oh my god smells good okay this is their cloud cappuccino I think it's just like a ton of sweet
01:56cream cold foam on top you know this reminds me of is from the Simpsons movie when Flanders makes that
02:02insanely intricate coffee or hot chocolate drink that is literally what this looks like I just need a
02:07little flamethrower to toast the top anyway cute dog looks like mine
02:13all right moment of truth real quick before we chat I have never had this before I mean okay I'm not
02:30gonna lie there's there's a little tongue mark already I mean yeah can't not be good but let's
02:40see the coffee delicious she's got a straw what an idiot I am should I use my finger is that gross
02:46all right we're past the crazy stuff it's good I mean at the end of the day they're charging 8.50
02:52because you can call it like a cloud latte and put sweet cold foam on there it was delightful don't get
02:57me wrong but I just wanted to try it okay so this is Elizabeth Street Garden I brought you guys here
03:01before in my what I spend in a week actually and I remember saying it's it's like cemetery vibes which
03:06I stand by that it is but like good cemetery vibes people sitting in different pockets hanging out
03:11having lunch reading I see a lot of people just come here to read which I've done many times and we're
03:16gonna do today too but this is a really beautiful area we're in Nolita which means north of Little Italy
03:20part of Manhattan I've checked on street easy but I want to see what these apartments that kind of
03:25look down over the garden are like on the inside okay gonna go join the populace in the more crowded
03:31area over there read my book in a second but first wanted to tell you guys something I'm reading this
03:35which is called show your work by Austin Kleon I haven't finished it yet but I know what this book
03:41is about and I just had a couple reflections around it it's about basically putting your work
03:45out there or sharing some part of yourself or your creativity etc in some small way every single
03:51day and to be practicing it because odds are others you know some people will resonate with it but it
03:55has to be findable so anyways I had a moment yesterday where that principle of this book really
04:02resonated with me it was a small thing but my life now it really obviously revolves around YouTube and
04:08that's what I geek out on so all of the little features that come out on YouTube studio or the
04:13analytics that I'm constantly analyzing on my videos that's my passion that's what interests
04:17me and is also just applicable to my life in a way that I mean I'm constantly comparing these things
04:22but it's what I know and the way that consulting was not that for me because it was much more
04:27theoretical it wasn't you know the work I was doing for clients it wasn't for my own business and so I
04:32always say without having my own skin in the game or without having a horse in the race so to speak
04:36I just couldn't I couldn't bring myself to care nearly as much as I care about my own business
04:42obviously anyways point being I put on my Instagram story yesterday me rambling a little bit about
04:48something that I found really interesting I'll give you the TLDR basically YouTube recently rolled out
04:53the feature for creators to be able to a b test their thumbnails which means you can upload up to three
04:58different thumbnails and YouTube will then track which one performs the best and automatically set it to
05:02the one that performs best and I thought it was interesting that the metric that YouTube tracks
05:07to determine which one is best is not click-through rate click-through rate is the percentage of
05:12people that click on a thumbnail when it's presented to them the metric that they track according to the
05:17back end in the YouTube studio is watch time so how many minutes of your video did that person watch
05:22which to me is a little bit counterintuitive anyway so I went on my story and just talked about this
05:26and said that I can understand why YouTube would do it the way they do it but I personally as a creator
05:30would like to see the difference in click-through rate and when I have these slots I typically don't
05:34share them because I think they're too niche or I don't know like who cares except for other creators
05:38right however I am like you know what screw it I'm gonna put it on my story see what people think
05:44the amount of replies I got on that ostensibly very very niche thought I was having or opinion about
05:50this thing got so many replies and from such a wide variety of people too none other than the expert
05:57himself MKBHD literally responded to it because he he had the same thought and so he dug into it
06:02and said that what YouTube does is actually it's kind of a combination of the two the click-through
06:06rate and the watch time basically the way he put it is if a video gets let's just keep numbers simple
06:12100 hours of watch time but 75 of those hours come from the group of people that clicked on this
06:17thumbnail versus that one that's how YouTube determines it so it's kind of a combination between
06:22click-through rate and average view duration again like getting into the nitty-gritty but just the fact
06:26that I got so many replies on that let alone like from experts in the field I just thought that was
06:30really really cool and so again without having finished this I already feel inspired to be
06:35putting out random thoughts into the world every day or like even in this video I'm already rambling
06:40because I'm sure it will resonate with someone all right now I'm gonna go join the masses oh I
06:44should have said part of my effort to start sharing more like random thoughts and etc I am starting a
06:51newsletter so it's gonna be part of my email list which if you want to join the links into the
06:55description a couple hours of pooter time which included scripting on my next video after this
07:05one little hint it involves my apartment so I'm excited to release that one and I think you guys are
07:09really gonna like it hot up on some emails with a few brands that I have deals with over the next
07:12couple months and of course texted some friends I'm always multitasking here's live footage of me
07:17receiving a really funny one huge perk of my job being able to do it from pretty much wherever
07:24I just sent out the invite to my birthday party which I'm having soon and yeah for reference every
07:29single event that I host I call it a moistening that's just my brand now but anyway it's my 27th
07:34birthday soon my actual birthday is September 4th but I'm having the party another time when more
07:39people are in town but I'm really proud of this theme it wasn't my idea I'm not gonna lie it was one of
07:43my friends I did this well I came up with this part because you know Taylor Swift obviously had
07:46her eras tour but this Taylor this one my spin on the eras tour is life eras so to come dressed as one
07:54of your life eras whether it was when you were an intern a high schooler or I added this little bit
07:58future milf dilf you know keep it spicy and I put this as my picture I think that's what I'm gonna do

08:36spot in Soho Nolita area and like everyone me all my friends everyone I know calls it Rin Tin Tin but
08:44then I have a friend who insists on calling it Hon Ton Ton it really tickles me I don't know why anyway

11:01oh man that hurt a little bit at the same time I'm like you know what I do that once a year
11:20not that I've ever spent that much in a single shopping trip but I went in there with an idea of
11:25what I wanted I don't do it very often I'm gonna keep those pieces forever I don't know who I'm
11:30trying to justify it to besides myself and now I can donate like quite a bit of stuff in my closet too
