Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, Steve, you and Tommy both have TV shows. So
here's some new research about traditional TV. That's what we
call regular TV. Now traditional TV. Forty percent of gen
zers that's ages nineteen or eighteen to thirty four would
rather watch YouTube or TikTok content than watch regular TV
or paid streaming services. The reason behind the shift is

(00:24):
a new trend called micro dramas. Now, the micro dramas
are short scripted episodes that might be of a fight
or some kind of other engage engaging drama to keep
viewers watching. Close to twenty eight million adults prefer these
short clips over TV shows.

Speaker 2 (00:42):

will continue to decline over the years?
