Started off strong with a good theme, and a crisp, informative design that wasn't invasive.
Movie dishes come alive, you don't need to see me, the focus is the food.

As he grew he felt the need to inject more humor into it, it used to be witty and rare, now it's the main attraction aside from food. His side projects are something to glance over entirely, but I suppose using youtube money for good causes is worthy of celebration.

I still watch every video, but this cow's getting milked as hard as she can.

Ragusea is the actual kind of faggot anti-white Reddit kike that you'd expect Banish to be. Babish might still be too, but his videos are actual cooking. Ragusea needs to sperg out every video to talk about how much he hates whites because he's a Jewish professor for the most Jewish "profession" of journalism.
He also sits and fights people in his comments section all day because kikes are thin skinned and that's why they always try to increase censorship.

He's fine, I watch his videos from time to time but some of his witticisms grate on me as they seem to be increasingly forced.
I didn't find him to be particularly funny in the first place. The growing frequency of his comedic interjections doesn't do him any favors.
Sometimes a joke doesn't land or was never really worth telling in the first place, we've all been there.
When 10 jokes don't land in a row it's more difficult to sit through the video.
So far as the more superficial aspects go, he's a meek looking man with little definition, his foray into dieting was a wise choice but it's apparent he hasn't stuck with any serious exercise regimen.
Like I said, superficial, but I find outward appearance can speak well to character.
His voice is clear and not particularly unpleasant, however, his cadence is unnatural at times. I'm assuming this is a fault of his/others script writing.
I have no issue with scripting, but it can leave you worse off if it feels wooden or forced. A good example is Amiel Stanek of BA, other personal qualms aside, his features are easily the poorest BA offers.
So far as his abilities as a cook go he is competent. Nothing he creates is particularly vile, unless that's the intention of the recreation, but being able to make something that's 'not shit' isn't the same as being able to make something 'good'.
Overall I don't find him to be the worst of the 'Reddit Chefs' but if there's an equal or better substitute I'd rather watch them instead.
I'd touch on his personality, but I don't typically hold personality against someone, so long as they're not extremely spastic/obnoxious/baboon-like.

Here’s what I’ve determined
>lives in Brooklyn for obvious personality replacement issues
>has an unreasonable amount of money for being a “le coder”
>extreme self-hatred and insecurity
>Effete, persnickety, particular, soft-boy opinions and possessions

My analysis is that he grew up with some rich emasculated dad, squandered his college years, and has major insecurity issues with being perceived as “weak”, and despite (or because of) this, he hasn’t developed a personality outside of things he’s bought. He’s one of those guys that can’t just buy a hammer to hang a picture, he has to find out what hammer brand is synonymous with Kentucky Linemen, what nail type can hold up an F-150, how to properly tie and tension a picture wire the way master craftsmen framers do, how to apply a museum grade seal to his $45 Etsy purchase of an impressionist oil painting of Deadpool.

If memory serves correct, he got the tattoo of a whisk cause it won a voting poll during one of his livestreamed Basics with Babish. It was modeled off a "tiny whisk" one of his viewers sent him that he uses quite often.

Oh my god, you’re right. No way that manlet has a voice like his. Definitely faking it, which explains why he speaks in a monotone. He is 100% faking his voice. He probably sounds like Aziz Ansari in real life lmao

His voice is the result of a pretty good microphone and a slight kick to the lower frequencies. When talking next to other people it is quite clear that he has a pretty thin voice. Also he is lying about his height, obviously.

Honestly I am triggered because he fucking humiliates me. I am world class chef, trained at one of the best culinary arts schools on he planet. Cooking has been my whole fucking life for years now. every day I make world class dishes, Italian, Chinese, Thai. I reference the worlds greatest cuisines, and the worlds greatest chefs to bring a culinary experience to delight anyone who tries this. And what doesthis fucking cunt reference?

He references Homer fucking Simpson making some fucking burnt disgusting shit waffles
He references rick and mitchy or whatever the fuck making some fucking 'god is dead garbanzo stew' or whatever they make on that shpw
He references the fucking TV. He has likely NEVER cooked under a world class chef and cannot name the criteria by which a restaurant scores a michelin star. but it doesn't matter because he fucking remembers the banana split from the fucking cannibal episode of bananas in pajamas. prick. prick prick.

I am British too, so I am trying my best to reverse stereotypes about us but this prick is a walking meme stereotype and makes MILLIONS of peoples money every month to put a fucking syrup into a waffle iron and not even finish it. muh clean plate club guys!. fuck off babish you will join my fucking clean fucking grave club when i kill you, dig up your grave then cook your fucking corpse into my bone broth, its oK I THINK THEY DID THAT ON FUCKING AMERICan dad once. cunt

He started off as a channel that took food from media that was on some level absurd or fantastical and did the whole "here's a faithful enough recreation of it and now here's maybe an actually palatable version" which I think is a fine enough gimmick to have. Then that slowly turns into straight up just food from media in the sense that the food is no longer weird and it's just "this movie had a chicken fried steak here's how you make a chicken fried steak". Now we're at a point where the majority of his content has all but stripped away any sense of being anything other than just straight cooking videos.

Of course there's plenty of space for a thousand cooking channels on youtube but I just personally feel when you remove the mildly interesting food from media angle its generic as shit. I also think coupled with the fact he's clearly now loaded as shit a layer of charm is removed. I take no issue with him making fat stacks from youtube or not being a pro chef but I'd rather watch some random fucker in a trailer make a steak than watch him in his downtown new york apartment in his ultra kitchen pull out his Sous-vide machine in order to not fuck up medium rare.

See, I want to be the fucker in a trailer making cooking videos but seeing all these extremely professional kitchens AND camera work intimidates me. I'm a professional chef but I live in a trailer park, trying to save money for my own restaurant one day, I've thought about how it'd be a neat gimmick to cook "fancy" meals in a trailer kitchen and record it with just a shitty cell phone but even the amateur YouTube chefs have professional level cinematography.

Its a catchy name for the feeling some weirdos get when they are next to people that would generally be perceived as more handsome than them.
