The stream doctor himself, Harris Heller, is making the switch to Youtube Gaming for all of his live stream content.  Is it time we make the switch as well?  And why does Era suck at Twitter so much?  Let's talk about it.

Era has some major changes to make in his streaming schedule.  Is changing things up a bad thing, or could it be the best thing for you as a creator?

The first meta for growth was being live, the second was Youtube, is the third Tiktok?  In this episode we discuss some of the data we've found from Hyde's recent efforts on Tiktok and discuss potential growth strategies.  

After feeling burnout from the entrepreneurial life, Era and Hyde sat down to discuss solutions!  There's a blessing and a curse to self-employment, and you can either stay in the problem or look for the solution!

The new consoles are here for those that are able to find one!  Scalpers everywhere, outrages resale prices, and the real question we have is: Who is winning this battle?  

Era's a Sony fanboy, Hyde loves Xbox, we're probably gonna argue.

With the recent Twitch DMCA scare streamers are being forced to delete almost everything.  This was inevitable, but is Twitch trying to help or are they taking advantage of the situation?

We sat down with community director of 8 Circuit Studios, Oscar Mendoza, to discuss the future of Project Genesis.  Project Genesis is a brand new space combat FPS fusion that promises a unique and immersive experience for new players, experienced players, content creators, and anyone else looking for a fresh experience.

Oscar has been in the gaming industry for many years, and discusses the transition from Triple A game development to a small indie development team.  

We didn't have much of a plan for this week, so we decided to pick everything we found interesting and break it down for you piece by piece.  From the terrifying sponsorship attacks from the Keemstar vs. H3H3 situations, to microtransactions destroying the video game industry, and possibly Hyde's greatest Rogue Energy ad yet this week is full of interesting moments.
