    It was really disappointing and cringy. I thought the show came out after the Thailand cave incident where he said people who were helping rescue trapped children were only in the country because they were pedophiles, but I just looked up the dates and the first season of Discovery came out a year before that incident. I waited a while to get Paramount+ because I didn’t want yet another streaming service on top of Netflix and Hulu.

    The Musk references aged very quickly. It’s not great to name off living people as future historic figures when they are still alive and able to wreck their legacies.

      The cave thing was worse than you remember: he got in an argument on twitter with a guy telling him how dumb the submarine idea was, so the smart reply was to call the guy a sex tourist… and it was obviously the cave expert called in to supervise the entire rescue.

      Nevermind how that was an ad hominem to begin with lol.
