Smart people are reluctant to express confidence because they are better able to understand all the ways they may be wrong. Unintelligent or uninformed people are more likely to be confident. Listeners get much more satisfaction listening to confident people

him being friends with mehdi (electroboom) is good enough for me. i personally found derek annoying years ago but he and his team seem to be putting some serious work into their episodes these days. one i saw recently had animation on par with the Cosmos reboot from a while back.
