The hubris to think you don’t need to know about how your dishwasher works… I too was once blind, this man showed me the light. Praise be.

To elaborate:
A TC video usually serves two purposes. The first is to provide information that is interesting and sometimes even useful.
But the other is to detail the learning process and to glance down a few rabbit holes along the way.
And the Dishwasher Saga has the bonus of being both an incredibly snarky man proving the internet wrong AND being some of his most profitable videos.
One of his best videos that more or less explains this is when he did a “live” demo of… just using google to identify and repair a radio. It is deeply fun and rapidly turns into a discussion of why it is good to curate your own entertainment rather than relying totally on algorithms.
