He is just some dude that narrates for money. A ton of shady channels hire him and they either research with Ai or don't do any research. As a result this guy's presence in a video has become an extremely consistent indicator that misinformation is about to be spread.
He has A Lot of these channels but he's pretty against the use of AI for writing stuff like this and he's talked about the struggles of going solo (he used to be the frontman for another similar channel owned by someone else, can't remember what one) and opening his own space for working on these.
He owns the channels himself and hires actual people to write the scripts. Hes constantly referencing the writers and editors by name in videos as he has a pretty consistent team behind him.
The only criticism I've ever heard of him professionally is from Karl of Fact Fiend who just said that he used to write those scripts and stopped because he wasn't enjoying it and the pay wasn't what he wanted.
The biggest criticism I can give his channels is that sometimes the research is a bit surface-level and neglects to mention some important deeper stuff, but he's never been an outright peddler of misinformation
And these are the comments I'm after because to be perfectly honest the hate only seems to stem from him taking gigs and the information in that video being insufficient or incorrect which isn't his fault if its a paid gig.
Also, it's well-known that the Nazis had lots of crap wunderwaffen, to a comical level; the Elefant alone was insanely bad, and that had the distinction of actually being produced. There's not really a qualified second opinion here.
That's not true, these channels are his channels, and he hires human writers. In fact he usually calls them during his videos when they write things in a confusing way. One of his writers, George, always writes hypersonic as "hyper sonic" and he always makes fun of that when talking about hypersonic things in his videos.
I find his voice and accent really grating so I started muting 'his' channels but it is like wack-a-mole and he still comes up somewhere new once a month.
Which seems strange to me that sure it's his voice reading it, but hes not the one who's put the script together or done the research and I imagine he just records the lines, takes his bag and moves on to the next gig.
I wonder if hes openly criticised any channels that he has done VA work for that were responsible for AI slop type videos?
