Captain Disillusion YouTube Channel

[Orphia Nay]

Noticed my son watching a Captain Disillusion YouTube video the other day, and was pleasantly surprised.

Pleasantly surprised to see Captain Disillusion still going; and
Pleasantly surprised to see my son watching a skeptical channel under his own initiative;
Pleasantly surprised to see a skeptic from days of yore (wasn't he at a TAM?) with so many followers.

Kid Nay said, "Yep, he's one of the good guys".

Glad you found it interesting!

"Marketing for TikTok"? What do you mean?

Slightly tongue in cheek comment. The "guest" at the end said the unedited video of the SNL skit in question was posted on TikTok

The Captain introduced me to Atarashii Gakko!

I am still unsure if this is a good or a bad thing.
