Short YouTube monologue by Mark Evans DM discussing how public figures (ex: Jake Paul) use audience emotion—noting a documentary moment where Jake Paul worries people may like him more than they hate him—and arguing audiences seek eventful, dramatic moments (compared to NASCAR viewers who watch for wrecks or history-making events).

When he. Jake Paul, sitting there talking. The biggest takeaway in that documentary was he's like, I'm kind of nervous that people are starting to like me more than they hate me. Because he realizes he uses that as emotional draw. It's a pool. People will show up to watch him fail. Right? Like nascar. Do people go to NASCAR to watch people go around the track or watch and see the wrecks and watch to see history made and watch and see this. Like, they're looking for eventful things to happen.
