Russell Brand's channel passes five million daily views
Daily views have more than doubled since our previous story, while the channel's subscriber total has fallen over the past week.
Why this story? The whole channel is running at 5,639,159 views a day, 7.8 times a normal day (724,856).
Look closely...
Russell Brand's channel is drawing roughly 5.6 million views a day, more than twice the pace of 2.7 million we reported here on November 9. The increase has continued without a matching rise in subscribers: the channel's subscriber total is down over the past week.
That is a channel-wide jump, not a tally for a single new release. Its recent uploads include "Why Jesus Endured Such Agony in Gethsemane...", in which Brand and his guests explore Christ's anguish before the crucifixion. They connect it to Jacob wrestling with God, considering what both stories say about suffering and spiritual transformation.
The wider catalogue stretches well beyond those faith discussions. Among Brand's most-watched regular videos are his 2012 Westboro Baptist Church interview and a conversation with Ben Shapiro titled "Russell Brand & Ben Shapiro \"Respectfully Disagreeing\"". The daily total does not establish which uploads account for the increase.
