I dunno, I liked seeing HBomberGuy absolutely ruin James Somerton over plagiarism.

Helps that HBomberGuy hasn't posted endless rounds of response videos. That's how you milk the drama for views.

Conversely, I'm getting a little tired of Karl Jobst mostly becoming a drama channel against fraudsters like Billy Mitchell or the Open Hand Charity. Those guys do deserve it, but it's sucking oxygen away from Jobst's usual commentary on speed running techniques. He's also working outside his specialty--these are American cases, and he's a lawyer under Australian law--and not all his claims carry weight.

I could have sworn he said he had a legal degree in his home country of Australia, but I can't find any evidence of it now.

No, he’s not
