I think it's consistently good occasionally great, and they crank out a lot of content (like besides weekly videos they do podcasts multiple times a week)
e; Oh, the show is called Some More News and the podcast is Even More News btw
It does get a lot more information and nuance though. Last week tonight only runs once a week. I don't know that Last Week Tonight cites all of their sources for each episode like Some More News does.
I had a friend named Cody who was a straight A student, changed schools in 7th grade, fell in with a bad group of kids, got into a car accident, fell into a coma, lost site in one eye, and now coaches snowboarding. Not dead, though
I managed a Cody whom I called Codeine because he was a such a dope. 30ish, sold himself as a technician. In a car shop, pulled a ceiling mounted air hose over the left front fender to fill the rear tire, scratched the paint badly from the gritty hose. Left the bosses rolling stool under the alignment lift and heard plywood cracking as he lowered it, didn’t bother stopping until it was flat. Found out a week later he left the tierod nuts loose after adjustment. Left a flathead screwdriver in his back pocket and popped a hole in the customer seat. Worked one full day, sent home at lunch the next day with a full days pay, worth the price to get rid of him.
Dude is a millionaire in his 20s and got there by destroying expensive cars he needs to buy first. He's got at least 2 businesses besides YouTube that he uses his videos to advertise for, because destroying increasingly expensive cars is not sustainable and he knows it.
I can't stand some of his recent videos either, but to call him stupid is definitely an overstatement. Not saying he's a genius, but he must have at least average intelligence to have gotten to where he is.
To the best of my knowledge, he didn't exactly grow up with money either. He was pretty poor when he started making videos

I was made aware of his stuff after one of his appearances on the Behind The Bastards podcast. Some More News is good stuff!

It's similar in terms of detail to Last Week Tonight but not as funny.

Now we know why. It all makes sense. It's all a ploy to get his bodyguard paid in plain sight.

Got a nickname like that in a day and a half.
AeonFelis@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 1y
That's because when they grow up it is no longer acceptable to use that nickname and they go by Codward instead.

A disproportionate number of them become NFL quarterbacks. Who then end up playing for the Cleveland Browns, which kills them.
