When you have a subscription version and a free version, it's usually around 10% give or take that will subscribe. And so you kind of have to weigh like where do we get this money from by charging the 90% and ruining all of their experiences? "I can't imagine the meta numbers are going to be there's a ton of creators on Instagram"

They also talk about changes with YouTube leadership before discussing some of the gadgets and software products they've been enjoying over the last few weeks. Of course, we wrap it all up with trivia so make sure you stick around until the end to hear the answers to all of the questions!
