I think it's like short form category.

But yeah, I think that there's so many incredible online series and again, podcasts or content that is what people are consuming now.

And I think that these award shows, and people could say, oh, it's just an award show, who cares?

But actually people do care.

And there's so much out there that people do as humans like to be told what is good and what is not.

And I think that it also, it kind of,

condenses the amount of things that you have to consume in a way so I do think it's people really look to those awards and they are really important still yeah so I think for sure more categories within online content would be amazing and with the Oscars specifically I think again just like broadening out the the types of films and artists and creative people that can be eligible for awards I think would be amazing have you told them this

No, I haven't, but I will.

Well, it's a great question.

I think it's one of those things where it's like the changing of the guard.

I think that there's a lot of people in positions of power that they grew up watching consuming television.

And that is kind of the be all and end all of what they deem to be legitimate in terms of

a successful career within entertainment so I think that as people die things will change but more more to that I think since it's personally in my journey within my career it's always been important to me to kind of bridge the gap between the online world and then more of the traditional media because I've always seen the value in people taking traditional media seriously so

It's been a real need of mine to make sure that I kind of straddle both in a way.

So taking opportunities within traditional media when they seem beneficial, but then also making sure that I'm really like planting myself on YouTube and on TikTok and doing all those things.

I think you need to be super strategic about things and to understand that there are different audiences for both spheres and you can speak to both of them and there's a way to speak to both of them.

I mean there's been different people I guess throughout kind of history of online culture that have kind of paved the way for like being taken more seriously from like people like Emma Chamberlain for example.

I think that she's been someone that people look to who has really kind of crossed over.

And then even people like Mr. Beast or people who get to that level of fame within internet culture.

I also think these people are all entrepreneurs and they all are business-minded creators.
