He got called out a few years ago for releasing biased corporate ads disguised as educational content, essentially milking his reputation and audience for a payout

Do you have a source? I watch the channel quite a bit and haven't heard about the controversy at all.

I know he got called out for his waymo video by another youtuber, Tom Nichols. Dont know if thats what themusicman is referencing
