002. Just Hit Record with Matt Johnson

In the first guest episode of The Hot Keys Podcast, Nick Miller sits down with longtime YouTuber and wedding filmmaker Matt Johnson. Known for his decade of consistent content and nearly half a million subscribers, Matt brings a unique mix of experience, hilarity, honesty, and wisdom to the conversation.

Together, Nick and Matt explore what it really means to be a YouTuber in 2025 — from the creative highs to the grind behind the scenes. They talk about burnout, staying consistent, building a business around your content, and the mental hurdles that come with showing up online week after week.

If you're thinking about starting or growing a YouTube channel, this episode is packed with practical advice, personal stories, and encouragement from someone who’s lived it. Matt shares what he believes are the keys — or hotkeys — to longevity and creativity as an online creator.
