minus-squareojmcelderry@lemmy.onelinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down3·1 year agoDoes anybody else find Tom Scott annoying? I love channels that deep-dive into the details of things, etc. But I’ve always found Tom to be so smug and patronising. Is it just me?

minus-squareEvkoblinkfedilinkarrow-up15·1 year agoHe’s just very British, I think. IIRC, he also plays a bit of a character inspired by BBC reporters of his youth on camera. If you listen to him in a context other than his main channel (I love his Lateral podcast) he doesn’t come off as smug at all really.
