These videos are really interesting but sometimes I really wish they were more concise. I know its his whole thing but damn I want the knowledge.

I kind of love that about his videos. I scoff at the time, but then start the video and next thing I know it’s a half hour later and I’ve learned something in a surprising amount of depth.

I like a world where not everything needs to be 5 minute videos. Some things can be longer form.

Very fair, this comment is likely a result of me not being able to do that this week. But I have ploughed through hours of dishwashers, EV brakes and rice cookers in a day before.

It's not just the information for me, he's also passionate about the stuff that he explores and that comes across in his videos.

Abaolutely, but I have other things to do I end not getting to watch them

In those situations I usually enable 1.5x.

Yeh that half hour video could have been 5 minutes. Never seen him before but enjoyed his style and how he explains things, but it felt like he said the same thing over and over again 6 times.

I enjoy his work but it can get excessively long winded at times. Not necessarily five minutes but tighter for sure.

How else could you somehow talk about heat pumps in a completely unrelated video if it wasn't a little too long winded?
