      I truly have this belief that people were more creative and put more effort into making content as little as 10+ years ago. Look at the old machinimas and things like this, and compare it to the boring soulless shit of today. People were better back then.

    This kid had an amazing amount of poise for being all of 15/16 at the time of recording. Knows what marks to hit, handles callers, calls different segments of the show and is a little bit cheeky and ironic. He's one of those people who appears to have it more together as a kid than an adult, i.e. he appears to have become some sort of rambling crust punk.

      Well in my case I had broadband at 300 Mbs at my previous place. Now I've moved to a new place and no internet provider delivers there. So I'm stuck with a 4G connection maxing at 3 Mbs to my pc. I now live in a town of 4,756 people, that is only 5 miles away from a city of 234,982 people and you would think internet would be good enough. So internet accessibility is still an issue in 2021.
