If you had told Jonathan Cheek when he attended his first Mass that in a few years’ time, his whole family would be Catholic and he would be filming a YouTube series about the faith, he wouldn’t have believed you. Cheek has worked at Arkansas Nuclear One since 2008, the same year he married his wife Jessica. Together, they have two daughters, Presley, 12, and Peyton, 10. Jessica grew up Methodist, and Jonathan began attending church with a friend in college. But growing up, Jonathan didn’t attend church. “One of the reasons we didn’t go to church on Sundays was because Dad wanted to work in the yard, work on our race cars, work on other stuff. Work was how I made it through college. I didn’t have a backup plan. I didn’t have anybody paying for it,” he said. As Jonathan and his wife started a family, he realized he wanted to lead his family in faith — but that meant he had a lot to learn. “As soon as I had a break from a shift at work, I would wake up at 1 and 2 in the morning to study the Bible for hours before work,” he said. Jonathan was determined to figure

Earlier this week we brought news that South Korean content is now second only to the U.S. on Netflix, but it appears Korean audiences are opting for YouTube over the streamer. According to new research from Digital-i, which examined YouTube viewing for the first time, South Korean people with active YouTube accounts spent a whopping 210 minutes (3 hours 30 minutes) per day watching the platform in the final quarter of last year, which was second only to Japan (214 minutes) in the countries measured. Koreans who subscribe to Netflix spent less than half that time (96 minutes) watching the streamer, which airs Korean hits like Squid Game, Love Next Door and Queen of Tears. Watch on Deadline Digital-i found by far and away the biggest gap between YouTube and Netflix viewing in Japan and South Korea, with other nations much more equal. In the U.S., active Netflix subs watched 117 minutes of Netflix per day in Q4 2024 while the figure for YouTube was 97. In the UK, the figures were 89 and 95 respectively. Italy had the biggest gap in the opposite direction, with 91 minutes viewed daily on Netflix versus 54 on YouTube. The research niftily demonstrates

YouTube got some help from an Australian minister to avoid the social media ban for teens in the country, which affected TikTok, Facebook, Instagram and other platforms, a report claims. According to documents obtained under freedom-of-information laws, Australian Communications Minister Michelle Rowland reportedly gave a personal guarantee to YouTube CEO Neal Mohan that the platform would be exempted from the under-16s social-media ban even before the official consultation process on the special immunity. This exclusion of YouTube from the looming Australian restrictions has angered rivals, including Meta Platforms Inc. and Snapchat operator Snap Inc. Last month, TikTok described the exemption of Alphabet Inc.-owned YouTube as a “sweetheart deal” that was “illogical, anti-competitive and short-sighted.”TikTok-parent ByteDance has argued that YouTube’s short-form videos are “virtually indistinguishable” from its own. Commenting on YouTube’s exclusion from Australia’s age-limit rules, the Chinese social media company said that it “would be akin to banning the sale of soft drinks to minors but exempting Coca-Cola.”How Australian minister helped YouTube avoid social media banIn a letter dated December 9, 2024 (seen by Bloomberg), written days after the bill passed parliament, Rowland said to Mohan that she was writing to “reaffirm the commitment” to exclude YouTube from the new

YouTube logo   Google is reviewing a plan to launch a new YouTube Premium subscription in Korea that excludes YouTube Music.   The Fair Trade Commission (FTC) said Tuesday that it is currently negotiating a consent decision with Google Korea over an ongoing case concerning the YouTube Premium pricing model.   Related Article   A consent decision allows the FTC to suspend its review if the company under investigation voluntarily offers remedies to resolve consumer harm. It functions as a form of self-regulation.   Last July, the FTC sent Google a review report, equivalent to a prosecutor’s indictment, arguing that bundling YouTube Music with YouTube Premium violates fair trade laws.   In response, Google proposed its own corrective measures during the review process.   The FTC believes Google leveraged YouTube’s dominant market position by forcibly bundling YouTube Music with Premium subscriptions, thereby unfairly hindering other music streaming services from operating in the Korean market.   A comparison between YouTube Premium and YouTube Lite subscription models   With negotiations underway, there is growing attention on whether a “YouTube Premium Lite” plan — which excludes YouTube Music — will be introduced in Korea.   The Lite plan offers ad-free

Cooper Flagg stopped by ESPN’s SportsCenter after winning the Wooden Award to talk about his freshman year at Duke. He spoke about his family, about having his parents and grandparents at most of his games, and about the Brotherhood and what that meant to him. The interviewer, Sean Farnham, tried to goad him into tipping his hand on his NBA decision, but Flagg deflected well, saying that now was a “time for reflection.” He also talks about the closeness of the Duke team this year and how much playing at Duke has meant to him. We wouldn’t take that as a sign that he’ll be back though. We’d love if it he was, but even Jon Scheyer basically said it ain’t happening, and if you can’t believe the coach, who can you believe on this? It’s a small interview but it underscores what a wonderful season this was.
