Subscribed to your channel.
Maybe one idea is to take user questions and make a video to answer that question or questions.
You could also do something where you talk about something from an Aspie perspective, weather it is a hobby, place, event, news story, etc.
(P.S. make a video of your DeLorean, I'll watch that. )

That's actually a good point -- I've got a GoPro camera that's designed to be mounted and whatnot. Might actually come in handy here. Can't wait for spring!

Perhaps make the videos answering one or two questions per video. For me at least, 18 minutes is a long video to watch.
You could make a video asking youtube users to submit their questions for you to answer.
What I was thinking was something along the lines of for example "As an Aspie, I do or don't like these kinds of places because...".
You could make a tour video of your car. Those are popular and I made one for my 1986 AMC Eagle.
A scenic drive or just some kind of driving video with tat camera would be awesome. I need to get one of those Go Pro camera's.

Right now, I'm just looking for a few more questions to answer. If I get more than what I think we can answer in a five minute timespan, that actually works in our favor in that we can have multiple videos made. Unfortunately, I have zero to answer and would prefer not to solicit my own family members for questions. In all fairness however, it's looking like I may have to resort to that if I can't get any leads via this thread...

I guess I'll throw some questions out then. Not sure if they will be exactly what you are looking for but I'll try.
1. Are there any particular foods you can't stand to eat?
2. Do you like having things in a very particular order? (i.e. DVD's, hats, tools, etc)
3. Do you have trouble getting to sleep?
4. Are there any kinds of clothing that you don't like, weather it be fit or material?
5. Do you have any pets?
6. How did you first find out about Aspergers and Autism?
7. When traveling, do you travel light or take a lot with you?
8. Are you a neat freak?
9. How did your diagnosis, for better or for worse, affect your school career?
10. How has Aspergers benefited you compared to others around you?
11. What is the one public place that sensory overload is to much to handle?
Hope that you can use at least a couple of these.

I will say that #6 is something that we may not be able to answer (we were both diagnosed very early on in our lives), but the rest of them are excellent questions. Ten questions makes for at least three videos. Awesome! Now it's just a matter of figuring out the order in which to answer them (I know, first world problems)
Informative, interesting and fun!

Great idea. Have you thought about filming from a better angle? And maybe doing more in the staging department, to create a more inviting visual?

Just to give everyone an update as well -- we're starting to get questions via comments to our videos, so once we sort through the next episode answering the final three questions from the post in this thread, we'll start moving onto the comments in the videos. Before we film the next episode though, I'm curious what everyone thinks about the location and thoughts on improving it. Definitely open to suggestions!
I guess opinions are going to vary, but I found the "stuff" in the background distracting. Some things are fine, like the guitar and the furniture, but other things just bring in a sense of clutter.
As for angle, the camera is too close to your legs, creating a distorted perspective. I think it should be shot more straight on to your faces.
Shooting outside can be tricky, because you have to get the lighting right, and keep it even. Probably master the indoor first, and then maybe try to learn the outdoor.
