I mean, the guy is a lawyer, I'm not sure I can think of a profession with a more "generic person in a formal but not fancy outfit" stereotype than that.
I had a threesome with an HR lady! Her hair is purple and she has a polyamory infinity symbol wrapped by bands around her wrist in the colors of the bisexual flag.
She’s a cool lady. Great friend and hates being a tool for the man. She’s cool people’s version of Ron Swanson.
eh, he's okay. he puts out a lot of slop content like "REAL LAWYER reacts to $MOVIE" and "r/LegalAdvice DISASTERS!" with those annoyingly exaggerated YouTuber faces. I guess you have to play to the Algorithm, but slop is slop.
I like Liz Dye's legal analysis when she appears on his channel to discuss current events, but I wish I could just watch her directly, rather than suffering through LegalEagle's bombastic and superficial framing to pump up viewer engagement.
He’s been just outright “yeah this is fucked up and the Trump administration is violating the law but no one cares.” Not sane washing anything - constantly reminding us that this is not normal or legal or ethical. Everything he’s been doing for the last few months has been A+++++++++
the content is better than I remember, having watched the video you linked. I guess I'm just cranky about the particular way that thumbnails and video titles have converged on YouTube.
Even the "slop" is quality content. Media colors our understanding of things, and for better or worse the general understanding of legal proceedings comes from things like movies and r/LegalAdvice disasters.
He provides informed and informative reviews of common legal misconceptions through those videos, meeting people where they are to educate them about the facts. When a piece of media gets it right, and when it's so off that you'd get tackled by the bailiff, are valuable insights to the layperson.
I've always thought he looks like a stock photo of a lawyer. like his face is what would be used as an illustration when you look up what lawyer means.

Isn't that a compliment? He's awesome.

Its gotta be, the devs of the game would want you to trust the advisor so they'd make them charismatic and friendly.

He hasn't put out any videos like that in years. It's all about recent legal issues/cases the past several years.

You mean like repeatedly making videos about the Trump administration risking his own business and dare I say well being?

Hate the game, not the player. Any channel that doesn't do this shit is doomed to obscurity.

I would say he would sue you for that ... but he is a pretty decent guy and likely just laughed at it.
