Joost is also an adjunct professor at NYU's Stern School of Business, the author of the SuperJoost Playlist newsletter, and a well-known analyst of the mobile gaming ecosystem.

- Netflix's hiring of Alain Tascan from Epic to run its gaming division;
- The commercial outcome that Netflix is pursuing with games;
- The convergence of monetization strategies across streaming video and gaming;
