Two weeks after Logan Paul's video surfaced featuring an apparent suicide victim, YouTube is taking action. Polygon's Julia Alexander and Rooster Teeth's Jon Risinger join Cheddar to discuss YouTube's next move and more from the media world. Alexander weighs in on whether she thinks the video platform went far enough in its punishment, and if the controversy will result in more editorial oversight for YouTube.
Nintendo surprised fans by announcing the new games coming to the Switch in 2018. Risinger says the new slate proves the gaming giant is doubling down on nostalgia.
