Disaster recovery; how to deal with & recover from your life falling apart (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Louis explains two main strategies for dealing with life disasters. First, instead of panicking and obsessing over a problem, reframe it as: “If I find this, I’ll do X; if I don’t, I’ll do Y.” This helps reduce stress and makes it more likely you’ll actually solve the immediate issue, because you stop spiraling and can think clearly. To illustrate this, the speaker shares the story of a failed supply business that lost tens of thousands of dollars due to a payment-processing mistake and bad deci
I want to do what you do; where do I start? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Louis' main point is that there is no single, linear “right way” to start a career or find your path. He explains his own journey as a series of accidents, detours, and random opportunities: starting in audio, moving through internships and repair work, trying health insurance sales, then stumbling into buying and fixing computers, which eventually led to board repair and YouTube success.

Read excerpt
In this episode, Louis discusses an Atlantic article about HP’s Instant Ink subscription and uses it as a broader example of how companies are shifting ownership away from consumers. He agrees with the article’s core complaint: a printer that can be remotely disabled because a subscription lapses feels deeply user-hostile, even if the user technically agreed to the terms. He argues that this is not just about HP’s size or success, but about the principle that once you buy a device, you should be
Google is killing authentic websites & I made it worse 😔 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Louis says this is a hard video to make because it’s about personal failure and compromise. He explains that for most of his career, his business and YouTube presence were built on honesty, transparency, and showing the messy reality of repair work rather than polished marketing. That approach helped him compete against bigger, better-funded companies, because he couldn’t win on facilities or certifications, only on trust and authenticity. In the end, Rossmann warns that if search engines and pl
