Episode: YouTube < Crypto, Hank Green's Money Me$$age to TikTok, and Jellysmack's $500 million play for the oldies but goodies
Description: YouTube just lost three very big executives who have been with the company several years (a couple of them 15 years!). At least two of them are moving into roles at crypto/Web3 companies. Are we sensing a theme here?!? Also, Hank Green lays out the argument for why YouTube is so good (it pays creators) and why TikTok isn't as good as it can be (it doesn't pay creators enough). Plus, Jellysmack is getting into the we'll-license-your-back-catalog-of-YouTube-videos-for-upfront-cash game with $500 million in tow. Creator Upload Socials:
