Anyone get a weird feeling about Wendover? I used to think he was a decent authority until I watched his channel Half As Interesting.

Maybe he hires a writer, but his sarcastic joking nature comes off as extremely sincere and authoritative. This makes me question how solid his Wendover points are. He has a commanding voice and we believe him.

definitely. a lot of his other content is just kind of out there -- missing some critical details or glosses over other things.

doesn't help that it feels like clickbait, at least for HAI, and most of them can be summed up with a tweet.
