🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 The GTA 6 leaks might feel unreal and unprecedented—but it isn't the first GTA game to leak In fact, it's been happening since at least 2004...

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 The Mexico missions in Red Dead Redemption are basically one of the reasons I wanted to research history in the first place. Finally, I get to share some of that research with you.

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 There are some locations in The Last of Us that look like they'd be a lot of fun to explore as a child... So, I ranked them.

I spent years working on this series, and months remaking it as one big video. I had many long days, countless late nights, and got sick at least twice. And it all felt worth it the moment it received its first view. Thank you for giving me that feeling one million more times.

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 It's hard to believe that Uncharted 4 is now 10 years old... To help me come to terms with that, I made a video about one of the game's best chapters

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 The final New Austin missions in Red Dead Redemption always feel like our big Avengers moment before heading to Mexico. But the most interesting part for me, of course, is the history...

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Train Dreams is a lot of things. It's a film about the end of the frontier, and the approach of civilisation. It's a film about climate and nature, and how humanity has impacted it. But, perhaps most importantly, it's a film about life.

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Early in #RedDeadRedemption, John Marston tells Bonnie about his parents and childhood. But how historically accurate is his backstory, really?

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Last year, I made a video stating that my opinion on The Polar Express is correct and everybody who disagrees is wrong. This year, I have a confession to make: I may have been wrong.

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Yes, I know I already made a nine-hour video breaking down the historical connections of Red Dead Redemption 2... but I'm not done yet. Let's take a look at the real history of Red Dead Redemption.

Tried to find out their reasoning but got no response (Hint: it's probably because I mentioned Gaza)

YouTube comments: "Unsubbed", and reply "Fair enough, though I'm curious to know why?"

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Yes, the King of Thieves may have won, the world might have been plunged into darkness, death, and destruction, and I may be the only hope to save the world from further chaos and tyranny. But first, I’m going to catch a really big fish.

Advice for creatives: print and bind your writing work! Having spent months (or, technically, years) working on my video about Red Dead Redemption 2's historical accuracy, it's so nice to actually hold the script in my hands.

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Why are we so attached to animals in video games? To find out, I'd like to talk about my fictional friend named Epoña. This is the story of a man and his horse.

Nine-hour video = very long editing timeline! (Well, technically 14 different timelines that I've stitched together for your viewing pleasure)

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 Some time ago, I had a question: how historically accurate is Red Dead Redemption 2? Four years later, I think I have my answer.

🎉 NEW VIDEO 🎉 GTA: San Andreas has more than 150 songs on its radio stations. A lot of these feature swearing that, in real life, would be in violation of FCC guidelines and subject to fines. But which station would be fined the most?

Very surreal milestone. I feared this video was too different from my usual content to resonate with my audience. I guess I couldn't have been more wrong. youtube.com/watch?v=64Iz...

yeah your videos might be good but is your voice so monotonous that some comments think it's AI? 😎

There's a scene in Schindler's List that is especially memorable. If you've seen it, you know the one. But one thing that is rarely discussed is its music—and how even John Williams knew when to step aside and let more important voices tell the story. So, I made a video about it.

GTA: San Andreas is 20 years old today! One thing that surprised me on a recent playthrough was just how deep and nuanced its narrative and themes actually are. So, I made a video about it.
