You decide) along with a few photos of the subject at hand. (You don't miss much by having these on in the background as you go about other chores. The photos don't add much to the story)

They all have the same AI voice, one that is remarkably well done with a few obvious glitches. For instance, they always call fifty cal guns "point five oh" or "point fifty", the German ME planes are prefaced with the word "ME" instead of calling out the letters M and E; that sort of thing. (Me 109)
The AI videos bug me. I don't watch them. And then on top of everything, I don't believe them. I assume that some percentage of what they say is true, and that there may be some huge mistakes or issues with the "facts".
