BSP-202: YouTube Made $15 Billion Last Year! Tastiest Mic Fail of ALL Time, and More

On episode 202 of the BSP I analyze the recent disclosure that YouTube earned $15 Billion in revenues and discuss how that affects you as a creator, and also share a mistake YouTube made and what they should do to rectify this. I then rant on the absurdity and offensiveness that airlines market credit cards to you in flight, share my initial thoughts on the Yellowtek m!ka boom arm, and respond to a lot of comments and questions.
