Would it be OK to pursue a YT channel as a side gig?

Dear monkeys,

I have some summer break time and I am thinking about starting a YT channel that focuses educational content in a prestige game (think Shogi, Poker, chess, etc.).

I have an upcomming internship at a good boutique and I really want to get a FT. Would starting a YT channel like this hurt my professional career?

Thanks in advance!
