Thoughts on him? His videos? His courses?

I just watch his YouTube videos. Very instructive. He overhypes positions a bit but the theory is solid.

His short form content is garbage. His long videos are ok.

Any YT short is going to be garbage. You just can't get enough detail in.

He's solid but one thing I hate about him is how he seems like a company or something. he doesn't seem like a YouTuber like, hikaru, levy, etc. He feels like a organization or something. I hate that.

He is literally running a business selling chess courses, so yeah, that make sense. He might make some money from YT ads, but he's creating content to drive people to the courses. Nothing wrong with that of course, but he's not even trying to compete with the "content creators" in that way.

His shorts advocate blatant hope chess, but his videos are good.

No idea who he is.
