      When I was out running around doing drugs I would've hated doing an interview with Mark because it will follow you around for the rest of your life. Now that I'm clean and my life is together. I wouldn't want random people recognizing me from my addiction on youtube.

      I don't appreciate Mark "joking" about being horny with Amanda Rabb, whom he later got into an experimental VR treatment facility, which led to her death. I believe he takes advantage of the women and transwomen as well. Research has led me to believe he is involved in human trafficking. Not sorry.

    Soft white underbelly is a term used for Crocodiles and Alligators. These predators are extremely dangerous at both ends, Head & Talis. But they are extremely vulnerable in their Soft White Underbelly.

    I will disagree with a lot of the comments. My background is public speaking and debate. I disagree with the fact that Mark is a wonderful interviewer. He is sometimes, when he keeps his mouth shut and lets the people speak. But other times, he simply interrupts with poorly thought-out questions or simply interrupts to think of something to say. I have seen him give interviews that are brilliant, and I've seen him give interviews where he simply embarrasses himself. If everyone can take one piece of advice, take this. If you're an interviewing someone, let them speak. Your questions are not more important than what they've got to say. And if you stumble and Bumble and show them that your questions are more important than their answers, then you're doing a horrible job
