For our 70th episode milestone, we’re joined by long-time friend and branded content pioneer Zach Blume, Co-Founder of Portal A. From the early days of viral YouTube hits to partnering with Jimmy Kimmel’s Wheelhouse Entertainment, Zach has spent 15+ years at the intersection of tech, entertainment, and influencer marketing. We dive into the evolution of “viral,” the highs and lows of YouTube Rewind, and how branded content has matured into today’s creator-driven economy. Plus, we break down the latest news—from creator tours outselling expectations to whether Bilt’s “Roomies” is genius or a flop.
