I think it’s inspiring as an act, not as something that will necessarily be stable. I don’t see them sticking with this very long. It’s just a hard format with this number of viewers. Hope to be wrong about that.

But I think it is important to show even as an example “hey look at what news could look like or sound like”

One criticism I have about it is that the stories are per “day” and not topic, and so it would be hard to recall and share a clip from an episode in a few months. While CNBC etc often split their videos by story. So the lasting value of the videos is lessened I think.

I don’t know how much of an audience the boys will reach but I’m really glad they’re doing this, because I’m not very good at keeping up with the news.

he’s great. he’s using his platform to actually push left ideas on YouTube. he’s like bread tube without the self fellatio
