Cordkillers 601: YouTube Is TV Now?

About this episode

The episode discusses the evolution of YouTube into TV-style programming and the impact of streaming services like Netflix and Hulu.

YouTube is leaning harder into TV-style programming, ad sales, and creator sponsorships, while Netflix keeps adding live sports that make streaming look more like old-school television. Meanwhile, Doctor Who moves to AMC+, Plex shocks lifetime users, Hulu folds deeper into Disney+, and YouTube-native shows keep pushing toward theatrical releases.
