Global influence, monetization power, and cultural reach. Are you one of the millions of Americans trying to crack the creator code? Do you dream of being the next Mr. Beast, heir to the YouTube throne?

 

On this week's Some Future Day, I sit down with Bloomberg's Aisha Counts, one of the sharpest minds covering the $500 billion Creator Economy, from Mr. Beast's chocolate empire to Ben Stiller's healthy soda venture, and even Dave Portnoy's surprising offer from the United States Department of Commerce.

 

Aisha says today's creators aren't just creating content. They're building brands and they're reinventing Hollywood. We go deep on deepfakes, AI clones, and why Joe Rogan and Minecraft might be the future of global news and entertainment. The entire ecosystem is evolving.

 

Aisha, thank you so much for joining me on this awesome episode - the Creator Episode - of Some Future Day.
