Chill Dude Explains' videos are the Youtube equivalent of Cracked or Listverse articles. Low-effort (graphics sometimes don't make sense) and riddled with inaccuracies that are easy to debunk with some casual web searches by anybody moved to do so.

I try hard to avoid getting my information from sources regularly mixed with false information. But to each their own.

You seem to be misinterpreting IMDB notation.

First example: Actor Marty Pistone played the character of "Controller #2". BUT IMDB notes the actor's name was incorrectly printed as "Martin" in the film's credit.

You'd need to find someone credited with a character name of "self" or their own name (e.g. "Ronald Regan").

Instant potatoes may not be as good as fresh mashed, but they're still worlds better than the "whipped" potatoes included in many (most?) TV dinners. Those are just slightly less awful than eating a kitchen sponge. They seem to exist only to look good in the picture on the box and push the weight and calorie count up a bit.

Why do so many low-quality Youtube channels feel the need to include hard-coded subtitles into the video? Do they not know anybody who wants them can click the CC button on youtube? I find it very distracting and avoid them all.

An "immersion heater" is small enough to fit in a pocket but with that and a mug, you can do quite a bit of guerrilla cooking. Boil water for: coffee, cocoa, oatmeal, ramen, (instant) rice or potatoes, etc. With a larger "mug" you can even heat-up hotdogs, retort pouches (i.e. MREs) or even warm up cans.

"And I don't care how cool you think you might be, you cannot take someone serious yelling at you to pay attention, with a big toe hanging off the end of their hand. Far as I was concerned, it was payback time. I'd come in the room, say stuff like: "Get your feet off the table!" At Christmas, my brother got him a sock and a glove."- Billy Gardell - "Halftime" (2011)

Holy carp, what a load of pollocks! Something fishy here. First time I'm herring about this, cod you believe it? Let minnow what happens.

"Richoux’s nominalized version was new territory, and it stuck."
No, it doesn't seem that it did. No dictionaries reference that usage of misle. The vast majority don't even have "confusion" as one of the definitions, with only Oxford proving that usage was ever a thing. Meriam Webster even says misle just isn't a word at all.

Probably would have been more useful to install a cellular repeater in those areas instead. I've had to do that in a building I worked in.
The number of calls placed might just be an indication of the novelty of pay phones today, rather than a serious need.

I don't see how they could possibly have been so incompetent that they starved the crew. There's no explanation of these claims in the transcript. It's easy to calculate how much food is needed. They couldn't have been planning on the crew (not the cast) foraging. There wasn't harsh weather that could have prevented planned resupply runs. TV production crews always have to plan the food on any remote shoot, so this should have been pretty standard fare.

Being a multi-billionaire doesn't stop you from being a corrupt criminal, shamelessly and illegally enriching yourself at every opportunity. Even being elected president apparently doesn't help...
