Thoughts on Moneyball? Not the concept, the movie.
It has Bobby Kotick in it.
That's all I know.

What are your favorite game osts, what are a couple underappreciated/less known ones you think deserve more recognition?
I've been real tempted to make a video about this, even an alternative of "Awful Games with Awesome Music." In the meantime, GRID 2's is seriously underrated, not because of its music (though that is also excellent) but because of its usage. The way it syncs to game modes is brilliant.
Mick Gordon will likely always be known for his DOOM work, but his Wolfenstein & Prey OSTs are serious quality too.
The one I've really come to appreciate recently is Boneworks. Michael Wyckoff's commitments to melody is very effective, and infectious.
Driveclub's always forgotten, I think it's the peak of Hybrid's work. Cyberpunk's is flat out amazing. And Borderlands 3 is an all-star roster with heaps of content.
Oh... and of course, Lawbreakers.
I really could go on forever.

Who is the greatest driver to have ever raced in motorsport in your opinion?
In terms of pure achievement in one stretch, Jim Clark. Dude's simultaneous competition in F2 UK, F2 France, F1, Tasman, BTCC, and Indy, I don't think will ever be matched.
Now, was he the most exciting driver?
No, not really.
He was undeniably brilliant, but he was quite frankly so smooth, and so quick, my Dad (who grew up watching him) would say you could go make a snack in the time between Clark crossing the line and the 2nd place driver.
Not exactly enthralling.
I think that's why we love drivers like Senna, and Colin Mcrae.
In terms of being a complete driver however, I think it's definitely Clark.

What’s the video that had the biggest difference between what you planned on and what it became? I just wanted to make a quick video about talis loyalty mission in me2 and here I am 20 pages in
That's a really good question.
I definitely didn't expect Metro Exodus to be such a huge project. In terms of intention and results however, I think it's got to be "The Spiritually Successor to BLACK." I intended it to be a middle project I could easily throw out while working on Mass Effect Andromeda Years Later, the most requested video on the channel.
Yet, I'd fall down a rabbit hole, which contained another rabbit hole. When I was reading up about a scandal involving Codemasters "accidentally" sending bonuses to former employees, I knew it was no longer going to be easy.
That's in part why I'm pleased with it though, and while I released it thinking no one would care, it's kept growing year after year and is close to one million.
It was a stressful project that turned out to be completely worth it in retrospect.

Gangnam Style?
To be honest I agree, and I'm honestly suprised that Clark isn't recognised as much as Senna or Schumi and even Fangio!
