How Did Sudip Bhai Subedi Create The YouTube Channel ‘In-Depth Story’?
Sudip was always interested in Nepalese politics and was continuously updated with the news. Moreover, the political drama during COVID-19 gave birth to the Channel “In-Depth Story.”
Subedi says that just a few days after the death of his mother during the COVID-19 lockdown, there were several trending news of millions of expenses made by then-President of Nepal Bidya Devi Bhandari on things like carpets, helicopters, and garden decorations.
Moreover, news about corruption started to surface daily. He says he had no one to share his frustrations with, as his father and brother were already in grief after losing his mom.
So, Subdei launched his YouTube channel to address the issue of the President’s spending.
He made his first video using his phone and tripod with the help of his brother, who was planning on taking the S.E.E. (the final examination in Nepal’s secondary school system).
People questioned his content as he exposed and questioned prominent political leaders, Nepal’s top businessmen, and corporate houses.
Later, he started getting noticed and was invited to several podcasts and interviews. For instance, he was featured in a podcast with Sushant Pradhan, one of the most popular podcasters in Nepal.
However, Sudip stated he did not want the attention. Although Subedi reveals that he used to cover up stories as the reason for creating the channel, the real reason will always be a tribute to his mom.
His cover-up story, as written by Online Khabar, is,
“I started the social commentary videos by ranting in front of my phone. It was when Covid was at its peak, and I was seeing people suffering, and in need of a carpet to sit on while the President’s Office was spending Rs 10 million on a single carpet. The injustice or say the ignorance riled me up and I spoke about it and all the misinformation that was being circulated.”

Sudip has a bachelor’s in Engineering from Tribhuvan University. However, he has an in-depth knowledge of economics, politics, and policies. His expertise has helped him create valuable content.
Talking about his content, Subedi says, “If the audience is used to that kind of content, as is the case with foreign creators, they also readily embrace local content. The sense of familiarity in any language, whether from any creator or platform, facilitates a smoother transition.”
He adds that the emergence of local social commentary creators has also brought together a previously scattered audience.
Moreover, he has talked about other Nepalese creators he looks up to as pioneers of Nepalese YouTube content creators in a podcast with Sustant Pradhan.
