In this episode, Jordan breaks down the systems, strategies, and business models behind The Sidemen’s explosive rise. We cover how The Sidemen built a 2-billion-views-per-year YouTube machine, the real economics behind content businesses, the future of creators, how to think commercially about your channel, why most creators are stuck, and why the next era of content isn’t production — it’s engineering.
