The Colin and Samir Show Colin and Samir

Today on The Colin and Samir Show, we break down the story about companies like Apple using data from YouTube videos to train AI, and answer Creator Support questions.

On this episode of The Colin and Samir Show, we break down why BuzzFeed is trying — and failing — to sell Hot Ones for $70 million.

Today on the Colin and Samir Show, we’re joined by Hasan Piker. Hasan is one of Twitch's most prominent streamers. On his streams, he reacts to politics and global news to over 2.6 million Twitch followers.

His live coverage of the 2020 US Presidential election brought in over 230,000 live viewers. He’s also done collaborations with politicians like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. 

With this being an Election year in the US, we wanted to bring Hasan on to talk about the role of creators when it comes to politics. Whether or not you agree with his views on politics, this is an important discussion about news and information.

We're taking a break this week while we're on vacation, but as we hit the halfway point of 2024, we want your feedback on the show and what you want us to cover this year.

Our thoughts on the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

At the beginning of 2024, mass layoffs decimated newsrooms, leading some pundits to proclaim that the media industry was facing an "extinction-level event." But there are bright spots despite the uncertainty, starting with a pair of video journalists and longtime friends: Cleo Abram and Johnny Harris.

We called up the duo to invite you into one of their conversations — on what it means to go "independent," the potential of creator-led media businesses, and Johnny's love for...moss.

This "Creators on Creators" conversation appears in Volume 2 of The Publish Press Newspaper, a full-color, 28-page print zine we're dropping on June 28th.
