I have observed the same - that Tim Pool gives a great overview but then yeah it's full of banter and commentary just to inflate the length of the video. Many content creators are guilty of that. I guess they make more money when the videos are longer. What has turned me off a bit on him is his more recent sensationalist "all caps" headlines. I guess those types of headlines draw in the normies so maybe it works for him.

I always thought O'Reilly was too mainstream so it's more of a recent thing that I've tuned into him. He seems to be somewhat of a voice of reason and will call Trump out when he sees fit, even though he considers him a friend.

That's too bad about Styx. Perhaps his fame got to him. Seem like a rational guy but it's hard buy him as credible when he keeps getting himself in trouble. I do recall the last couple videos I saw that, judging by his comments, many of his followers turned on him. He's not as smart as he portrays himself as.

Oh I was watching Steve Bannon for awhile but haven't turned in lately. He's usually on when I'm working but he tends to drone about the same stuff over and over again.
