Marques Brownlee: 我与JerryRigEverything频道主Zack Nelson进行了访谈，内容涵盖了他的频道发展历程、手机拆解测试、电动汽车改装项目以及无障碍设备研发项目。我们还讨论了他与厂商合作的方式、视频制作流程以及团队管理等方面。我很好奇他如何平衡YouTube频道和Not A Wheelchair项目，以及他未来的发展规划。此外，我还对他的电动汽车改装项目以及他与观众的互动方式非常感兴趣。 Zack Nelson: 我最初的YouTube频道是关于汽车修理的，后来扩展到手机拆解、耐用性测试、电动汽车改装等领域。我选择改装悍马电动汽车，是因为它代表了燃油车的高油耗和高排放，而我的目标是将其转变为环保的电动汽车，并向人们展示电动汽车的强大性能。在与厂商合作方面，我会坦诚告知我的测试方式，有些厂商接受，有些则拒绝。我的视频制作流程随着时间的推移而变化，从最初的单人作业到现在的团队合作。 Not A Wheelchair项目的目标是降低越野轮椅的价格，并通过团队合作和仓库运营来实现大规模生产。我未来的发展规划是继续制作YouTube视频，同时扩大Not A Wheelchair项目，并平衡两者之间的投入。在与观众的互动方面，我发现很多人观看我的视频是为了娱乐，而不是为了购买我推荐的产品。 Andrew: 我与Marques一起主持了这次播客，并参与了与Zack Nelson的访谈。我对Zack Nelson的职业发展历程、项目管理以及团队合作等方面印象深刻。
