I'll admit I'm a little lost/down, it came out of nowhere! Over the years he's produced an endless stream of genuinely interesting videos. I can't really think of any other video hosts that can make a wide range of topics sound so interesting.

Probably I'm just scared of change...

On the flip side though, I'm really happy that he's decided his personal happiness is more important, and has decided to focus on people close to him.

What are your thoughts?

Pretty happy about it honestly. He's been counting down to this for ages in his newsletter, so it's far from a blindside on my end.

I've preferred much of his "second channel" content for a while now anyways, and I suspect we'll see lots of interesting content outside of the boundaries of "things you may not know".
