What Wall Street Isn’t Telling You About $42 Trillion

KevOnStage wanted to compete with Netflix. Then he had to shut down his own streaming platform. He joins Earn Your Leisure to explain what went wrong, what he learned, and how that experience helped open the door to his Tubi partnership. Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings sit down with KevOnStage for an honest conversation about the business behind the comedy. From posting three to four videos a day to building an audience that actually buys tickets, Kev breaks down how he turns attention into income and why owning his content matters. In this episode, we discuss: • Why his $5.99 streaming subscription was harder to sustain than he expected• How Safe Space and his audience helped him build his relationship with Tubi• The difference between having followers and having paying fans• How content ownership and licensing create opportunities to earn beyond the first release• How his wife helped him change the marketing for Successful Failure• His thoughts on Druski’s church comedy and the backlash• Why protecting his marriage helps him protect his focus and energy Kev also opens up about losing his brother and creating Grief Sucks, sharing how he uses comedy to honor his brother and connect with people navigating loss.
