Efforts to beat YouTube at the video podcasting game will fail. Video podcasting is only a thing because too many people have lived too long with YouTube as ambient noise. It’s the most passive way of engaging with content and getting people to actually look for it will be tough.
SGA as the target is a distraction from the fact that this is built into the OKC culture and taught. Exploit every inefficiency no matter how miserable it may be to watch, and it’s working, so why would they stop?
UFC ownership capped how much the fighter roster earns at around 20% of revenue, and it's been that way for a long time. You almost never hear Dana get pushed on that. If the revenue pie is bigger, obviously that 20% is worth more. But, FYI, so is UFC ownership's take of 80%.
