In this episode of VISITORS, we sit down with Gino Gentile, the research mastermind behind the wildly popular YouTube channel The Why Files. While his brother AJ is the face on camera, Gino is the one behind the scenes selecting stories, conducting deep research, and pitching the paranormal and fringe topics that have captivated millions of viewers. Gino shares the fascinating origin story of how The Why Files evolved from COVID lockdown boredom into a phenomenon, starting with simple science videos before pivoting to UFOs, cryptids, and conspiracy theories after Gino suggested covering the Black Knight satellite. He walks us through his research process using AI tools to catalog hundreds of hours of content, his partnership with AJ and sister-in-law Jen, and how their complementary skill sets—from Gino's relationship building at the legendary Comedy Store to AJ's entertainment expertise—created the perfect storm for success.
