    That would not be sustainable long term for this type of show, he’s not a single youtube content creator with maybe 1-3 editors, he has a buttload of staff who presumably get paid professional wages and his team uses a buttload of expensive professional equipment and has to do a buttload of expensive legwork and research and so on.

      You mean like Linus media group and other big YouTube channels? Those, too, have buttload of whatever you mentioned. Anyway, I’ll stop here. I really hate arguing online.

        LMG has slowly built up their YouTube audience over many years and grew their revenue along with it, you couldn’t just plop down an unknown Linus Media Group cold onto YouTube today and succeed. In addition to that Linus Media Group relies on a metric shit-ton of short and long form content output, which isn’t the format of what is essentially a talk show.

          Stewart is already a very well known dude and he can build his audience in a very short time. Linus started from zero. Jon is starting from 1000. He won’t need to build anything. He’ll only a couple of social media posts and he’ll have millions of subs. Anyway, this is moot. He will still do his own thing. He doesn’t even know who I am anyway. Lol
