    I’m a huge fan of Climate Town. His videos are in depth and he’s opened my eyes to a lot of shady things I wasn’t aware of. This video for example taught me about minimum parking laws - something I didn’t even know was a thing.

    And he cites his sources, shows excerpts from documents, etc

    My main complaint is too many silly jokes. I get it… it’s YouTube. I expect some level of silliness but I think this video crossed the line a bit.

    Regardless the information is still valuable

      I think the rationale is: let’s make this boring stuff fun to listen to. And it probably works.

      I get why he makes the jokes and I think they really helped him get a following. I wish he would make more informational cuts that are a little shorter and focus more on his points and information. There are some people who dismiss his points or don’t really grasp how important it is due to the jokes.

    Another fantastic video essay from Climate Town. And a not just bike cameo. What could be better?
