Alex kicks off the show with a look at PitchBook's new Greater China Venture Report.

Next, details on China's new bans that will limit weekly video game time for minors and Uber's acquisition of transportation management software and logistics management outsourcing company Transplace. The show closes with a look at YouTube's massive revenue numbers and how much of that gets paid out to creators on the platform. Moazed compares YouTube's model to linear streaming companies like Netflix and touches on some competitors to YouTube that are embracing free speech and less aggressive moderation.
