Additionally, cast members are labeled with their name found in the tags section. Using Social Blade, python HTML scrubbing, and a MATLAB database structure, each video on the playlist had their VLD data and tags downloaded. Tags were counted as entries into the database. If it existed, it would accumulate the VLD data associated to the tag, while if it did not exist, it would create a new entry with the VLD data.  Disclosure: This analysis does not include data from podcast #241-332.
