Come on, there's a lot to be critical about in this video, but do you honestly think he faked a British accent to appear smart? There's a few million of them that talk like that, you know. And the word search for money being lame subliminal messaging? Really?

Maybe I am being unfair, but that accent seemed a bit fake.
Sounded a bit like Lloyd Grossman to me, and 'data' as 'darta'. From some digging around, I think these guys are in Australia. There are a couple of other vowel slips which would fit.
it sounded real to me (an englishman). that didn't stop it sounding extremely annoying.
Well, then you don't know English.
I read this in a British accent.
