You should see what's going on with In Praise of Shadows. He just made a video with a segment antagonising Wendigoon of all people, and he looks... exceptional to say the least.

Here's some concentrated autism in the form of a table/spreadsheet of every creator listed on Nebula, their channel/podcasts and real names if known, Patreon/socials followers and notes. It needs the actual social media links added but was more about the numbers tbh. The short of it is that there are maybe 160 creators in their stable, at least 10% of which are just Nebula employees who really want to be creators. Another 10% or so are defunct, as in they haven't released anything in over a year or their content is simply parked on Nebula for views. Someone there has a massive boner for Apple and tennis. A solid 80% or more of their creators are beardbro white dudes, which explains why they push their troons so hard (troons are also denoted).

Shameful doublepost to add that OzTalksHW, RM Transit, Sexplanations and Bright Sun Films are not listed on Nebula's creators page but all have released videos on the platform within the month. So the only creators confirmed to have left are Jill Bearup (fired for basedness) and Tom Scott (retired).

Maaan, is so sad to see someone wholesome like Tom Scott being a massive pushover when it comes to leftists politics, maybe he just is the "what makes me look right at this time in history" type , maybe he is the devil in disguise or just simply a person that is blindly trying to to be good, either way is plain disheartening how contemporary issues makes people do these things

There was a Medium article posted on the Nebula subreddit a few weeks ago that, while pure PR dicksucking, is rather illuminating about the company. The Medium article is by a low-tier actor whose career is receding almost as fast as his hairline: (link/archive)
There is a link in the article to yet another PR puff piece that repeats Denby's claim that Nebula is valued at $150M. This article is by a Filipino entrepreneurial think tank? Sure, why not. (link/archive)
There are some comments by chief attention whore Dave Wiskus in the Reddit comments too.
Okay, so there are quite a few details to unpack here. Let's start with subscriber numbers. Wiskus published a blog post on 27 November 2022 to commemorate reaching 600000 Nebula subs after almost exactly 4 years of business since 2018, after starting with $100000 and 4000 subs. By 19 March 2024, this had grown to over 680000 subs per Fast Company. The primary growth engine of the company was their bundle with Curiosity Stream (CS), which started around 1 June 2020 from what I can tell, when CS had about 13M subs and Nebula had started their streaming platform activity around May 2019. In 2 September 2021, CS purchased a minority stake in Nebula which increased Nebula's valuation to $50M, though how that is consider minority in a business previously valued in the single digits of millions idk. I already rambled about how by 2024, CS took an equity hit of almost $3M on their $50M investment in Nebula. The deal was definitely better for Nebula than CS, with at most an increase in say 700000 subs or about 5% of CS's total paypigs. The bundle deal ended at the start of 2024 because Wiskus claimed CS stopped paying Nebula creators for signups via sponsorship.
That brings us to 2024, with Nebula claiming a valuation of $150M and 700k subs with no venture capital (except as I pointed out in my previous ramble, they both did take $1.9M in VC to start and are actively pursuing multiple VC investors right now). They have no SEC or investor filings, so it's impossible to verify any of their claims. All that can be proven is none of their creators appear to have stopped their Patreons or post exclusively on Nebula (except Our Lady of Perpetual Victimhood Lindsay Ellis, whose latest book just tanked), so they aren't making enough to thrive on from that avenue alone.
The comments by Denby about the failure of paywalling Nebula Classes is also interesting, and shows that even the most ardent of paypigs have limits. These were SkillShare-type courses (creating competition even though SkillShare was a sponsor for numerous Nebula creators) that cost extra to access for existing Nebula subscribers. Double charging their marks didn't go so well, it seems. Now the classes are included for free, the concept mostly abandoned, and original exclusive content is Nebula's focus which is a great way to burn money, as many streaming services have discovered.
Nebula started offering lifetime memberships for $300 or so early in 2024 (I remember Todd in the Shadows shilling it) to help bridge the funding gap from the loss of CS, but I do wonder how many people actually cared enough to either swap their sub from CS to Nebula or god forbid, pay for both luxury entertainment packs in this economy.
Nebula still hasn't made a strong case for why anyone should pay for what they can get from YouTube for free, including the desire to directly support creators which can be done via Patreon, SubscribeStar, Gumroad or OF. I'm all for alternative tech platforms, but this one feels built on a foundation of sand and slight-of-hand. I expect Nebula will figure out soon enough what CS learned the hard way as well: your good intentions don't mean shit when you're out of capital and I'm not convinced they mean all that well.

Shameful double posting because I missed this PR announcement which was even in Deadline and Variety (the wording is exactly the same in both, so no reason to read one over the other) on 4 June 2024:
The content used for this collab are an uh interesting selection using Todd in the Shadows as an example. He has not, to my knowledge, promoted these audio feeds on his Twitter, in his latest videos or anywhere else, so maybe the goal is to see how much organic interest they can garner on Spotify from a non-invested audience. Todd also has an actual podcast but that isn't being promoted, just the audio files of his YouTube videos.
There's no mention of the Nebula deal in Spotify's Q1 2024 Shareholders report released 31 March 2024 or the prepared remarks, in which it says podcast content costs and deals fall under it's Ad-Supported segment. So it's either too new or too insignificant to matter to the money people at Spotify. The Q2 earnings call is scheduled for the 23rd and we'll see if it's worth mentioning compared to their 5% dip in stock price and tussling with songwriters' royalties in the quest to make services bundles.

Well that's a move. I have to wonder if Todd isn't one of the creators Nebula is banking on to make the site lucrative.

Interesting: I posted back in April about Nebula having a couple venture capital deals in progress, including this screenshot from Pitchbook
As of today July 24th, 2024, those "in progress" deals are shown as cancelled.
Whether this is from Nebula deciding they didn't need the money (press X to doubt) or the potential investors bailing is unclear.
I checked in on the Spotify Q2 investors report and while they are posting record numbers, there was no mention of the Nebula deal anywhere; it's not even a footnote in their Ad-Supported content section.
Nothing else new, really. Imperial joined Nebula, they've been promoting the fuck out of The Getaway to all 400 fans that seem excited about it, an in-house Dracula movie starring britbong troon Olly Thorn will be out soon after his starmaking turn in the Acolyte.

Yeah. He thinks all black conservatives are secret white supremacists and refers to them as "race traitors" (or in Candace Owen's case, a c00n. No, seriously - he calls her that).
Anyway, I got a kick out of that one time Tree of Logic read him to filth on Twitter:
