Jimmy’s interview with Democratic Senate candidate from Texas James Talarico was not televised because of threats from the FCC so we're hosting their discussion here on YouTube. James talks about Republicans being scared of him winning, Jesus being co-opted by MAGA, the RNC Convention being held in Texas, not taking money from corporate PACs, Trump calling him a “freaky guy” and having second thoughts about endorsing his opponent Ken Paxton, and the GOP making it harder for people to vote.

I wonder if the recent change in how views are counted is the real source of that. Instead of needing to watch a portion of the video, even seeing a single frame is counted as a view now, apparently even if it's just auto-playing from mouseover

I think what metrics we need to see are "engaged views" which is watching at least 30 seconds and "average watch time" for the interview.
