Adam's target audience must be teenagers. That was hard to watch.

I remember watching him as a teenager and thought it was the coolest show ever. Now I don't think I can watch him. So I guess his target audience is different.

Same for the teenager part.

The Podcast (Dialogues instead of Monologues) is content for the older audience, though: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLet00UQnlQoUKqSB5-oFmrwpnnVc4C4A8

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

I love angry comedians... but you weren't kidding: That was a brutal watch. He makes some decent points but he presents it like Jim Cramer crossed with a 10 year old making fart jokes.

God damn, seems like everyone tried so hard to be AVGN all of a sudden.

YouTube recommended this video, and based on the thumbnail alone it looked like sensationalist garbage. I didn't watch it. I think it's because i watched a single video about "de-googling" and now the algorithm dives straight into the rage-bait deep-end of that topic.
