The Colin and Samir Show

Colin Rosenblum and Samir Chaudry are YouTube creators who turned their camera on the creator economy itself, and the result is the most insightful podcast about the business of being a content creator. With 386 episodes and a near-perfect 4.9 rating from over 600 reviews, they have carved out a unique niche by analyzing YouTube trends, platform algorithm changes, and creator business models with the kind of depth that actually helps people. New episodes drop every Monday, and they consistently tackle questions that working creators obsess over. How did MrBeast structure his latest deal? What does the Netflix-YouTube convergence actually mean for mid-tier creators? Should you start a podcast alongside your channel? They bring real data and their own experience building a successful media brand to every conversation. The tone hits a sweet spot between analytical and accessible. They are not just talking heads reading headlines. They interview other creators and industry insiders, break down specific strategies, and share what is actually working in their own business. Colin and Samir also produce polished video essays on their YouTube channel that complement the podcast episodes, giving you multiple angles on the same stories. At around 45-60 minutes per episode, it is tight enough to finish during a commute but dense enough to feel like you learned something. For anyone building an audience on YouTube or thinking about it seriously, this is essential weekly homework.
