Jackson Tyler began collecting NASA’s public domain footage as a teenager and over time, compiled them into long form documentaries for his YouTube channel, Homemade Documentaries.

Through his videos, Jackson curates a series about some of NASA’s most famous missions, like Project Gemini, Apollo and others.

With a minimal online presence and virtually no marketing, Homemade Documentaries has racked up tens of millions of views, and is entirely viewer funded (through Patreon.)

He joins Stuart for this episode for a conversation about how he's turned a hobby into a beloved documentary series.

Themes and Topics Explored:

Homemade Craftsmanship vs. Mass Production

Education vs. Self-Taught Mastery

Archival Work as Investigative Storytelling

Access to the Public Domain
