I am confused. One is wearing a tshirt, the other a turtleneck. WHAT WAS THE TEMPERATURE IN THE ROOM?!

It’s because Ali uses Celsius and Thomas uses Fahrenheit.

Very helpful video! Although I do feel that the “sitting side by side” interview format is kind of awkward 😂 not necessarily for me but for Ali and Thomas.

This has been one of my very favorite videos from either of you. Thank you for having this chat and sharing. 🙏🏻

This was a great video, thank you Ali and Thomas!!

This was awesome! It’s so great to hear from both Ali and Thomas together. Especially hearing their thoughts and perspectives on KZread

Wowsers, just the motivation I needed to get me back on track. Thank you for sharing your insights from over 10 years on KZread, including the not so nice bits. Makes it def more real.

You've gotten so much more comfortable interviewing folks, Ali. It's a pleasure to learn from you and your guests in these sessions. Watching you thrive is a joy.

These informal chats with Ali (+guest) are some of my favourite. Hope to see more!

I was literally watching another Thomas Frank video when this started playing in a separate window. Love you both, this was a great convo. I LOVED the guide Thomas refers to with the AI audio transcript and how it summarized content within Notion - incredibly useful and very easy to follow via video and text. Absolutely a go-to when I need an explainer, which, due to the subject matter ... is often 🤣

This was helpful. As a small channel, it’s hard not to think about the “business” of building an audience, but this conversation reminded me that it’s not about the metrics - it’s about making a connection with like-minded people and expressing oneself in a creative way.

Love Thomas' comments on building stuff you want to do. Epic convo - thanks guys.

2 of my favourites together - just starting my journey of YT creation and get great inspiration from you both.

You guys are my most fav KZreadr 💕 Thankyou for this chat❤

Great insight Ali, thank you for the interview ❤

That was such an interesting conversation. Thank you guys!

I genuinely LOVE this video! Thanks Ali, Thomas and Team Ali ❤

Ali - Thank you for asking the hard questions. We appreciate you

😮 two favourite youtubers! It's like it's Christmas again!!!🎉❤😊

Thomas is the goat. Having had many conversations with him, it's awesome to see how things have clicked in his mind and how to try to apply them to my own work flow.

Never heard of Thomas Frank before but he's awesome!! Thanks for sharing, Ali!

Now I'm at the end - managing your psychology as a founder and focusing on input goals - this is gold, thank you Ali and Thomas!

This is the best kind of content, IMHO!

This is such a fun format! Love what Thomas Frank has done with Notion and I'm so thankful we gain a greater insight into that!

I live in Denver! So cool to know you're here! Maybe we can meet one day.. Huge fan of your stuff man, built the PARA Dashboard from your video and its helped me a ton & Ali is MUY GUY! we appriacate all you guys do thanks!

Great video concept. Two of the OGs

Two GOATs. Thanks for all you do for the Notion Community guys!

This is great! Wish this was an hour-long conversation!

Very nice! I found this very valuable!

You're all the guys I followed since 2019.. first I started watching Joe Scwitczer (maybe it's not the correct spelling). Then I see Tom, Matt , and you Ali. You're amazing guys. Not just watched I applied many things in my daily routine.

Thanks for the talk. That was a nice Chat. I'm keen Thomas to test your new tool! Take care of note falling in the trap of perfectionism. The iPhone wasn't perfect at the beginning. You should plan to iterate. That's my 2 cents advice 🙂

I like the background music at 20 minutes :) it feels super relaxing :)

Loving the activity on the Appendix channel!

Great talk!

Aw that wee wave at the end of the video 🥰

Nice timing ❤

really crazy we need more accidents like this

How to find demand?

@leonardorodriguez9121

What most business gurus actually want to say but can't sell is that you find demand trying a bunch of things out and see what sticks. Use a startup mindset and create MVPs.

One should also conduct research to identify the demand in their field of interest.

My most favorite productivity gurus in the same video. 🔥🔥🔥

I like the one mic set up

Ali Abdaal and Thomas Frank in the same video- I just had to watch❤

Big TF fan. Such a wholesome guy.

TF has his priorities right 🙌

Oh, livestreaming, you both like it.. i've actually done 100 of those, weekly, grew the subs from 160 to 520, great stuff! Learned a great deal about the tech, about being comfortable in front of the camera, but my stuff is brutaly niched so I'd love to reach more people. That's why I'll release videos and keep livestreaming monthly.

This deserves to be on Deep Dive

2:20 It can be easily taken as downplaying Thomas effort or misguiding the IMPRESSIONABLE audience by saying that Thomas started a new channel completely FROM SCRATCH and built a business making him 100K a month. Yes, Thomas has built 100K a month business BUT he has done so by leveraging on his BRAND that he has WORKED HARD on OVER MANY YEARS! And thank you Thomas for clarifying some of it 3:13 that there was a big audience around Notion. 4:58 and that Thomas is continuously working on his brand by NOT teaching Notion but by selling his ability that he can teach HOW to organize and externalize information in anything including Notion.

short no ramble podcasts yayyy

great vid

Very good video!

Awesome! This felt slightly like two halves of my brain having a conversation. Thomas as the logical, practical one and Ali as the curious but distractable one. XD

So many golden nuggets in this video

Missed hearing Thomas, bring the podcast back 😢

You can clearly see that he really cares for his team!

This is the first video if yours that I've watched because I haven't seen Thomas Frank in a while I was curious about what he was doing and what he has to say....

Cool mic setup

Love the sound of these but confused as to how they would fit into my rotation of Puma Velocity Nitro 2s, with a supershoe and Rebel v3. How are you guys actually using this shoe?

Looking forward to a podcast with Matt D'Avella

Excellent content. I learned about high oxalates years ago. So, I do avoid foods with them, except dark chocolate. Sighhh. I used to eat 1-2 pieces a day. But, I've been eating too much recently. At least it's tested and below the levels of heavy metal toxins level, organic, etc. It's Blue Stripe.

Man, hearing Thomas talk about letting go of editing and perfectionism was kind of therapeutic

hahaha Ali's expression is awesome😂

lolll more Ali than the usual tortured smile we get 😆

I bought that notion template a year and a half ago and it's a learning curve in itself to use it, would be interesting to see how many people bought it vs actually use it as I think there's a lot of friction there

I hope you made a series where you interview other KZreadrs. I just want to see talk to Joey (Better Ideas). That dude got 2.68 million subs with relatively few videos.

After years of following you both, this felt like that Power Rangers episode when the red power ranger meets the other red power ranger, best crossover ever 🤩😂

Yoooo my man's drinking a Jocko GO. Those are amazing drinks.

This is peak digital nomadism - travelling the world to literally interview all the people in person that we've all seen virtually in the last years. Wow.

Ali looks like a Muppet next to this guy 😂

It's feel like deep dive channel Ali.. expecting vlogs here 😢

Never knew TF is Denver based. Lots more content creators low key out here these days

Ali should get on Healthy Gamer GG on his podcast!

People doing KZread videos as a means to making money rather than as a means to making videos that they enjoy It's better being intrinsically motivated. I learn a lot with these productive gurus. HOPE i can make progress on my KZread channel as well .

Ali's reaction in the beginning has to be a gif.

Sooo many youtubers are afraid it alls gona stop... "You cant be a 40 year old youtuber"... That thought is just because youtube did not exist before.... Maybe 60 year olds or 80 year olds might not watch youtube alot now, because they did not grow up with it (and material for them might not exist on youtube yet) but the audience at youtube now wont stop watching just because they turn 40, 50 or 96... they will grow with you and the interests will change throughtout the years... Is my thought so the worry ab beeing too old for youtube, that does not exist... its just the effect of youtube beeing so new and when you STARTED on youtube there were not that many 75 year olds watching. When YOU are 75 the other 75 year olds WILL watch youtube or the "same" kind of "platform". I strongly believe.

Makes 100 grand a month, and my OCD is wondering what brand/color/sheen the paint is on the back wall.

11:17 genius question.

"it'd be harder if i wanted to paint all day or someth" me as an artist: 👁👄👁 😂

Ali abdaal wear two watches to be 2 x productive. Big salute.😂

Why don’t such accidents happens with me?

Oh, my god 💛💛😂😂😂

Always a great video since it's ali, and thomas. But I felt like you were not paying much attention to what he says. and gets your focus driven away multiple times. I don't know if that's a style you want to implement because of the Podcast.

Obviously, the main ingredient in the secret sauce was Frank's existing success/fame/popularity from primary YT channel. To frame it like "100k a month youtube channel out of nowhere" as if anyone could do it if they simply had the idea and the gusto is sensationalism at best and intentionally deceitful at worse.

Accidentally make 100k 😅 I want dm accidental like that

Please don't add background music throughout the video.

I'm never gonna trust a man wearing that sweeter

This is the first time I've noticed that Ali wears two watches.

the second one is probably Whoop, not a watch

How is 2X 45min walks about 15,000 steps?! I walk for 90mins every day for about 8,500 steps. Anyway.

That's a tiny guitar

Why don't you share any links or references from your guests? It's okay that you want to sell your products, but this is not about you.

Pistes audio please !!!!!!

Is it just me or is Thomas Frank so ai-generated? ❤ bro is wax like

Editing is also the worst part for me

Very misleading

Ali abdaal , why do Talk like a Robot😂 80k to 100k what a misleading title, yea right imagine how much KZread takes from Taxes😭 taxes from youtube is 40%☠🤣🤓🤡🤫🤭🤐😭😭

One of the very first productivity Gurus I started following. Thomas was my bias and Ali being a bias-wrecker, whom now have totally become my bias.🤍 Truly grateful to see them both.
