Scott Manley is often way too nice for some of the dumb ideas he looks at. To the point it's sometimes annoying where he wants to have a positive look on things that are obviously never going to work.

Yeah I respect Scott Manley but there's a reason I like Professor Dave and enjoy Thunderf00ts scam debunks. Scammers, con artists, pseudoscientiste, and charlatans need to be treated with far more derision and mokery.

Thunderf00ts scam debunks

Thunderf00t is pretty out of touch when it comes to spaceflight though. If I recall correctly, he kept touting "Falcon 9 reuse will never work", and then pivoted to "Starship will never work" once it became clear how successful Falcon 9 is.
