You SHOULD connect to Tor via a VPN, actually

Did you watch the video?

No, post an article, then put the video on the videos community

Not exactly a TLDR, but something I appreciate the video for pointing out:
If you already use a VPN regularly and your threat model includes your ISP, you might as well keep it turned on while using Tor.
This prevents the chance your ISP catches you using Tor instead of a VPN (either in the moment or later down the line), and it also keeps other apps besides the Tor-ified ones from leaking stuff.

The onion router was a clue in itself as to how you connect to the Internet, especially when you need to hide. Add more than a normal vpn into the mix, proxies, ssh tunnels, dns tunnels, net cat, and maybe i2p. Once done, you could even fire off an ion cannon in a particular orbit if you fancy.

I never leave my VPN, so that’s the easier way anyway.

While doing this is generally not recommended, EFF does indeed suggest this option in some context: ssd.eff.org/module/choosing-vpn-thats-right-you#t…
