    I read the economist regularly and notice that a number of his videos almost exactly match content from the economist. His presentation is reasonably good, reasonably correct, somewhat entertaining, and condenses what would otherwise be a number of economist articles over several weeks. Sometimes he has new-to-me perspectives.

    To his credit he cites his sources and seems to keep clean of the various youtube grifts.

    Its not top notch stuff, but you could do a lot worse for infotainment. His recent scripts have had AI tells which has been disappointing; I've been watching fewer of his videos.
