I never understood why their channel have been so popular? Every video felt like a scammer who want to sell me stolen stuff.

Can someone explain the popularity of them?

top gear of tech

no one has any idea about the things they talk about but they do "wacky hijinx" and whinus is " nerdy endearing"

Yup, they went viral based off of Linus's tech "fame". Then went full sell out from there. Almost like the History channel did

I understand what they say, but in some cases I just don't agree with them. They only show the newest gadgets and scream into the camera....
