I always wonder who actually watches these people and how they make money. Jessie Gender is one I'm continuously fascinated by. He makes 2+ hr videos of circular nonsense. Who has time to sit and watch these every week? How much time and money does it require of him to produce his garbage content?

Cult members.

How much time and money does it require of him to produce his garbage content?

There's apparently money in churning out this kind of content. I mean, the biggest investment would be research and clearly these creators aren't interested in accuracy. In the case of Somerton, there's a number floating around Twitter, people are speculating he was making 6 figures from Patreon alone. I'm not entirely sure if it's true or not, but hbomberguy retweeted a couple of these claims so maybe I'm missing something obvious.
