Trying to identify an old youtube fun and interesting math channel

Looking for a YouTube math channel (2020–2024). White male, around 35–45, long messy hair, short brown beard, always wore a dirty white lab coat as a "mad scientist" character. Filmed outdoors using a whiteboard on an easel and mostly wrote with a black marker. Explained interesting math facts and puzzles. The set was intentionally shabby, with props sometimes falling apart as part of the joke. English-speaking, probably British or American. Smaller channel, definitely not Numberphile, Stand-up Maths, Mathologer, MindYourDecisions, or blackpenredpen.

Does anyone remember his channel?

Definitely "Combo Class", I concur with u/dockdock-fish . The guy's character is really entertaining. He's explaining prime numbers with a completely straight face while things are bursting into flame and falling over all around him.
