Taha's trust question gets personal on Answer in Progress
Sabrina Cruz and Melissa Fernandes offer very different answers in a clip from the trio's corner piece podcast.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
do you trust me?
Next story: Couples therapy becomes a friendship question on Answer in Progress
Melissa Fernandes trusts Taha Khan entirely. Sabrina Cruz trusts that she can predict what he is about to do, mischief included. Taha's response to both: "I don't trust you guys."
That exchange is the heart of "do you trust me?", the most-watched of Answer in Progress's two new uploads, with about 42,000 views. It's a promotional excerpt from their corner piece podcast, and the disagreement is less about friendship than definitions. Taha says he trusts people when their interests and incentives align with his. Sabrina isn't accepting that as trust.
The comments carry the question beyond the call. Viewers distinguish honesty from competence and argue that trusting someone needs a specific task attached: keeping a secret isn't the same responsibility as returning a borrowed car. Others ask where to find the full conversation, with one requesting full video or audio episodes on YouTube.
Thursday's "but what is trust?" extends the week's theme and currently has the strongest daily viewing momentum of the highlighted uploads. Behind those new arrivals, September's "how D&D accidentally broke capitalism" continues drawing a smaller audience to Sabrina's exploration of tabletop gaming, actual-play shows and who benefits from their popularity.
The channel's subscriber count held steady over the week, while today's viewing pace is well below its usual level. Its weekly view gain is close to fellow education channel Tech Moments, though WatchData and The People Profiles had much busier weeks. For Answer in Progress, the freshest conversation is a question the three friends cannot even agree how to define.

What viewers say
generally I use _trust_ to mean
1) someone will communicate honestly with me
2) they have my best interests in mind
3) they can competently act on those interests
though #3 is the most debatable 😅@UncleJemimaSee it on YouTubeTrust is a belief that someone will behave within certain parameters. It doesn't matter what that belief is based on, or even if it isn't based on anything.
So yes. If Taha only trusts based on incentives matching his, it is still trust.@Chameleonred5See it on YouTubeYes.
Ok, time to actually watch the clip.@snowshinobiSee it on YouTube

I wish you all would post the full videos on YouTube or the audio. I need everything in one place so it’s easy to engage with.
@user-uy8xf9tm5hSee it on YouTubeYou have to be trusting someone to do SOMETHING. I can always trust my husband to be honest with me, but he cannot be trusted to clean the sink trap every time. "Do you trust me?" shouldn't be a general question. What am I deciding I can trust you to do?
@astridlindstrom4681See it on YouTubeIsn’t that agreement? Not trust?
