I just took Jack Cocchiarella off my youtube list [View all]

I selected the three dots and asked YouTube to no longer suggest him. I kind of like him, but his blurb claims never connect to his content. I am just too tired of watching a video and finding that the claim doesn't end up correct or ever really covered. The false hype does not match with my expectations of what our side should be doing.
