How much revenue would nova make on ads per year ... how many staff have they on their books. Seems like it’s running at a loss but yet it’s still going. If my corner shop runs at a loss , it shuts down.

Even he knows what he's in atm. Lol! Hopefully he can depart before it's too late. He kept referring to "Bob" and constantly bringing up life survey statistics... awful.
