I Want to kick this off by being I think one of the first people to congratulate you on truly and I mean this to every sense of the world. Game-changing announcements For those of you who don't know if you missed the big news. two of the biggest streamers in the world in the game right now Just signed with Rumble what's going on in your mind yeah I you know I think I said that in my earnings release. Thanks for coming! By the way, glad to have you back! We signed Kai Sanat and I show Speed to do a show on Rumble It is a game changer.

It's historic. It wasn't just Rumble in the war to get these guys, everybody wanted them. They're the hottest. We're not talking like number three or number four we're talking about like the most subscribed guy on Twitch in February of 2023 and the top us streamer on YouTube you can't get bigger.

It's the biggest it gets, you know I Didn't think we'd get them so quickly in early 2023. I Thought it would take some time before we would be able to make moves like that, but we had the opportunity. Uh, we made some really good moves early in the year that really got a lot of people buzzing about Rumble behind the scenes and now you're seeing that come to fruition. We have Kai and we have Speed on Rumble It's a huge moment for us.

It really broadens the the portfolio of content on the platform. It really signals to to the big platforms that we're here and we're here to stay. and we're going to give you a real run for your money now. First of all, congrats I think it's one of the it truly is a seismic shift in the world of content.

but if I'm just gonna make this about me for one quick second here when I was sitting here in March you told us you the world. you gave us a little bit of a hint that you were going to sign the biggest or a surprise large twitch streamer and all of a sudden the surprise here is that it was two when I just read the news an hour or two ago like I was going back and forth and I thought it was going to be one and I was just so surprised and I would love to just hear about like how does this even come about like what's going on there like this truly is game changing in the world of content. Yeah, that's right. So back then we said that we signed a twitch streamer that was not Kai snack.

Uh, if that was the case, it would have been the largest twitch stream most subscribed twitch streamer there is. but there there's more to come. Uh, there's a real Exodus happening and uh, that one I was referring to and uh and the one that we were referring to on Twitter is another twitch streamer a very large one. uh that is also coming to rumble.

It's truly an exodus that's happening. Um, in the live streaming space and in the video space. But in particular, the live streaming space. There is like a lot of, uh, dissatisfaction with the with the incumbent platforms and it creates this massive opportunity.

And like I said, I Didn't think the opportunity would happen now. but there is a moment in time right now where everyone is really dissatisfied with the current incumbent platforms and we are going to strike. We're going to capitalize, we're gonna move, and we're gonna make it happen. And that's that's what we're doing.

Um, so there is, uh, another twitch streamer coming? Uh, you'll learn in the coming weeks of another large Twit streamer and hopefully many more after that. That's beyond exciting. Do you think you've been really like internalized that as a person, or even as a company of what that means? It was just publicly announced that you signed two of the biggest people, You're now telling us that there's a third one coming, and I'm sure this is just like the start of a litany. A myriad of other very impressive content creators out there like that's just crazy.

Like you guys must be all day 24 7. Just be putting this together because it, it's just changing at all. Yeah, no, it's it's real. It's uh, it's an exodus.

Um, and I think as a company, you know now that we're really broadening the portfolio of content in a major way into you know, very different demographics and very different, uh, genres of content. it's a major moment that we need to capitalize on. For me, what that means is that like you know, we put a lot of work in getting into sports. We put a lot of work getting into the younger demographics.

Now we're there. And now it comes to monetization. We have to make this the best vehicle on the planet for creators to monetize. Um, and when we do that, that's when we win.

So that's going to be my focus. As hard as I worked on bringing on these creators, I'm going to do the same thing on monetization. We're going to build out this rack platform and we're We're gonna make it the best place for creators to monetize. That's my goal.

That's what I want to do. That's what we're going to try to achieve.
