hate to hate but.. i couldn't watch more than 20 seconds, where's the super interesting channel we all subbed to before this change?

I can find no description as to the context of what this interview will cover. Who is A.C Grayling and what are his philosophical points of view? Obviously watching the video will provide the answers, hopefully, but I'm not going to spend 40 minutes finding out what could be detailed in a few lines, as a description, before I begin watching.

Maybe I should know who he is, and I am no media channel mogul but a description of what the 38 minute video will cover would help. I hope this is taken as constructive criticism.

I am tempted to watch the video then provide that description for others. That's not what I subscribe to Truthloader for though.

No video title, no video description, no intro, no context to what im supposed to be watching... my god its getting worse... who is claire?  Is this channel dead or what cos it seems so.... the abandon ship happened like 6 months ago and its been down hill from there.

love your channel & thank you for the interview,
great thoughts in there, would love to have heard him elaborate on his atheist spiritual beliefs as well

Great video! I think people don't understand deep philosophical discussions, nothing against them, it just they always complicate simple notions that can be hard for uneducated people to understand. I don't mean totally uneducated, just not educated about philosophy. They also tend to speak in list format :P nothing against that but it's just something I've noticed. He would have loved to have a blackboard to illustrate his answers with poorly drawn diagrams. Many great points raised here though so don't criticise it without watching it twice! I'm a new subscriber so I can't comment on the 'change' but I thought this was fantastic, I wish it was longer!!

Also I love Claire! She definitely deserved more screen time when she was speaking. Do you need a film editor? ;)

I completely agree with him on the religious part.

Everything good that the original truthloader team had set up seems to have figuratively been thrown out of the window. Stop slapping up longer videos solely focused on better monetization & get back to the old, appropriate format before your established audience becomes disengaged, ITN. - No disrespect intended to the journalist in this video, she's very good. It's just a shame ITN decided to feature her work in a place where it won't be appreciated.

Have  no idea what these videos are about and I will not spend nearly an hour trying to find out.

Truthloader what is going on these last video uploads have been absolute wank compared to previous videos...I spent 30mins listening to some guy talk about WW3 and what would happen...wheres the informative videos instead of these documentary type of things..

Unsubscribing, sorry truthloader but don't want these kinds of videos littering my screen.
