We dive deep into a hot topic that's been buzzing in the online world: the abuse of embedded streams. First, we'll kick things off with the weirdest happenings from my week and explore the exciting digital discourse. Then, it's time for a Ninja check-in where we discuss Trevor May's bold retirement statement from MLB, the scorching world of Hot Ones, and the unexpected pairings of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. The main event is all about the abuse of Twitch embedded streams. We'll unravel the concept of stream embedding for newcomers, explain why it's a big deal, and discuss its implications for both streamers and viewers. Every solo episode ends with Ninja's favorite community submitted questions and comments, drop us a line in the reviews.
