I haven't watched this, but if Louis has an hour's worth of content about it, it must be pretty nuts.

Louis and Steve got together before the video was published without any comment from LTT. The video from Louis is the definition of media bias which is kinda ironic considering the source....

I listened to it while doing some other stuff. It's poorly edited, but given the behavior they accuse Linus of, it doesn't surprise me that Louis wouldn't get comments from Linus. When I did watch LTT, Linus seemed self-absorbed and anything approaching the admission of wrongdoing was really couched, which I didn't care for.

I don't personally care very much about this, but having watched LTT, GN, and Louis, I'm more inclined to believe Louis's take than Linus's. I of course, have no idea what the truth actually is with any of this.

Why is it that channels with smaller subscriber counts always go after channels with larger subscriber counts? Yes, the concerns are vaild but the videos are oozing with jealousy.

Just like when everyone went after MrBean, the (current) king of Youtube (subsciber wise), a title formerly held by a long list of people over the last 20 years, most of which are now mostly on the ash heap of history.

Granted, they too all had valid concerns regarding MrBean. But in the end, the Bean won as he chose to ignore them all and kept making videos I never watch because I am oozing with jealousy...plus his content does not interest me. :)

Did you escape from the nursing home again?

I should add, I do really like GN Factory Tours and other behind the scenes. But I can’t stand most of their other content lately, which is the majority of it.

Maybe GN's split into two channels will normalize the content a bit. Of course, Steve can still turn a 15 minute video into a 50 minute one. I feel like they sit on their jokes a little bit too long.

Not surprising they show you old Mr. Bean episodes on VHS and tell you it's "youtube".
I thought we were talking about the caveman who hasn't had a haircut since the stone age vs that Canadian vs the New Yorker supporting the right to fix your own things.

As far as Dimmy Jonaldson I dont think he takes kindly to people calling him MrBreast.
