In this week’s episode we ask; “What the hell is up with Youtube these days?”. Why does it appear as though Youtube has taken off the guard rails and started allowing more “sexual” content on the platform? Also, AI video technology’s growth within the span of a year has been mind blowing. What does this mean for content creators, and the authenticity of the videos we watch? And recently, Charlamagne Tha God made waves when he said that “Most of the DEI policies are garbage.” Is there any validity to the claims. And what do other experts say? We discuss all that and much more.
