[@gravewalker1443]

For the love of all that is holy, make Karl the permanent host. I might be a little biased cuz I LOVED FactFiend but his delivery and genuine interest in the topics make me love this channel even more!!!

[@JamesFromTexas]

Really wish the "interim" part was dropped and Karl becomes the permanent host!

[@multiyapples]

Same. He’s done a phenomenal job.

[@theresalaux5655]

Me too!😊

[@quasinfinity]

I choose to believe that years from now, he'll still be "interim host" as there's no time limit on how long "temporary" lasts. (Source: Palestine)

[@Mike-hu3pp]

Yes. I completely agree. He is the current host. Interim sounds like he's not into it because he's going to be fired tomorrow.

[@StefanMedici]

I used to think the same. He's been interim host so long now it's part of the schtick. I expect him to still be interim host in 5 years. 😂

[@Kevan808]

Please make Karl permanent. He's awesome 👍🏼

[@JamesFromTexas]

Couldn't agree more!

[@thelittlethings-unboxed]

100% agree

[@imarobobot8795]

Did you quit FactFiend to do this? I'm happy you're not gone, and hope you become the permanent host here. YT is better off with you on its platform :)

[@sbcee2220]

Did not quit Fact Fiend! I'm glad he's here too. Edit: I was and am wrong.

[@robertnixon7447]

Karl is finished uploading factfiend videos however he will be leaving the channel and all of its old videos up. He still appears on wiki weekends as well as here obviously. There is a video about this on factfiend main channel

[@sbcee2220]

@@robertnixon7447 thanks for correcting me. I didn't know this.👍🏼

[@NiallSkye]

​@@sbcee2220is a very recent update, he just said he's done with fact fiend last week.

[@hannibalchow8492]

Yeah…well he’s with US now and you can’t have him back. He’s a all KZbin 😂😂

[@Qboz212]

I think Karl has earned the chance to have that "interim host" changed to THE Host of Top Tenz! Besides Simon has like a hundred other channels anyways lol

[@EmmaAbaya]

Where's Simon,by the way?

[@Zulimi2]

I really love the phrase, "Have the day you deserve" It can be a beautiful wish or a glaring insult

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Love your content karl! You're a fantástic host

[@Dexy83]

The same day this was uploaded, Brain Blaze had an episode about the CSI Effect. lol

[@sophiev1900]

Four Lions is epic!! From start to finish you’re laughing almost the whole way through!

[@edwardskerl5774]

I still miss Simon, but you're awesome!

[@justme2848]

Simon has so many channels on KZbin if you look up Simon Whistler 😊

[@---l---]

Came for the Facts, stayed for the Bone-ly.

[@multiyapples]

I’m not surprised about this.

[@blackgirlcouchreviews]

Great job Karl 👏🏿

[@dmac1465]

settling in nicely, great episode

[@Dopecheetah]

The Wu-Tang Clan game is dope asf. I think about it often. It’s so cool you have a copy of it.

[@H60Blackhawkmtp]

You need to stop letting that bald guy with the weird name keep you down. You’re much better than an interim host.

[@multiyapples]

Rest in peace to those that passed away.

[@nowt2957]

Smallwood has big wood energy!

[@mikeayurveda]

When are we gonna be done with this “interim” nonsense? Karl is killing it. The change was a shock, but we’re way past that now. After a little time to adjust to Karls style I personally think he is a superior fit to the @toptenz vibe.

[@francescganau7679]

I have just watched number 10 and I already feel like if this was done in China or Russia it would not fill out of place. Yet, many Americans still consider their country, the land of freedom the power of propaganda oh, sorry, marketing now it’s called marketing, not propaganda …

[@Error403HRD]

Lmao, imagine being assigned to find terrorists only to be accused of being a terrorist by the people you're investigating bc you're genuinely unnerving them. I wonder how long it took lol

[@AnnaAnna-uc2ff]

Thank you.

[@sergeykomarov2203]

English is my 2nd language, but I still want to say that although your piece of wood is small, but your soul is big.🥰

[@joshuagibson2520]

Randy Weaver, Waco, etc, etc ,etc.

[@MrGozer23]

What's interesting about the fbi is that if they needed to solve a case they did. But if they were told to protect (someone's) reputation, the cases were bungled badly but not usually looked into.

[@newshodgepodge6329]

The Federal Bureau of Incompetence

[@laurachapple6795]

Bigfoot also has an FBI file.

[@LillibitOfHere]

Castle. It’s about a writer tagging along with a detective for years.

[@lagraefz9982]

And then joining the LAPD as a rookie.

[@DFSJR1203]

I was recruited by both the FBI and the CIA while in school. I had to turn both offers down when I found out I would have to go through basic training. I broke both ankles a few years earlier and had trouble walking and running.

[@j.p.6932]

2:02 I always thought it was funny how on CSI the techs don’t just collect the evidence, they do the investigation and half the time arrest the suspect. And contaminate almost every scene.

[@semesabrown489]

Extra fact about karl. Notice his sleeve tattoo has a lot of green ink? He did this specifically to piss off his editors when using a green screen so his arm would randomly bevome transparent. Guy is a legend

[@legendofnone3037]

Four lions is an amazing film and funny as hell. Must watch!

[@torhne]

You should show the sleeve tattoo a bit closer up at some point, unless you already have...

[@joshuagibson2520]

Kal, could we please get a top 10 Hillary unaliving victims, please. Thank you.

[@kendraspenard8792]

Very interesting script!

[@j.p.6932]

Hey Karl Just wanted to know about the new Spider-Man portrait in the background

[@chrisk7626]

I always thought the number one blunder was Waco. Everyone agrees they just could have waited them out.. but I guess you have a watered-down list being here from the UK

[@hunterG60k]

A video title like that is how you get yourself put on a list...

[@russelllomando8460]

your tax money hard at work. thanks for an interesting report.

[@j.p.6932]

5:10 They made a movie about him called “Breach” (2007).

[@fsll1575]

An honorable mention would be the tracking of "Dorothy" to get ride of gays in the army. Those guys were referring of themselves as "friend of Dorothy". In reference of Dorothy in the movie Wizzard of Oz.

[@user-xb3vi4zr3e]

I love bones!!! Did you finish the series? Sh*t got crazy!! My husband used to be a funeral, Director. He had to wait till he finish that profession before he watched all of the series with me 🤪 poor bugger!

[@oliverkloshophdndrecords50]

Karl! Yay!

[@728709jay]

With RICO, do you think we could nail the Houston Astros for cheating?

[@HShango]

The FBI is the NCA in the UK (the british equivalent)

[@w.borneman3732]

And MI5 combined

[@cjtaylor1977]

PLEASE tell me you have the Motley Crue pinball game for the megadrive......

[@mikryan6567]

Four lions is amazing

[@bobthegoat7090]

Like many have said I think Karl is better at this type of more non-serious content. Keep him. Simon has enough channels.

[@Mike-hu3pp]

I know you only had 10 spots. But the investigation of the band "The Kingsmen" for the song "Louie Louie" because they couldn't understand the lyrics and therefore must be obscene should have placed as a top ten.

[@---l---]

13:13 Being sh*t , followed, or mis-reported, arrested or convicted by the FBI?

[@brrrrrrrrrrrk]

I hope you pay your writers

[@ladylove8565]

Your always commenting on your name but do tell Mr.Smallwood how tall are you?

[@goosenotmaverick1156]

I wanna say he's 6' ish (maybe and some change?) He's mentioned it in passing once or twice that he's not a short fella (which I am so those facts tend to stick in my memory lol) I could be wrong but I genuinely thing he's a pinch over 6'.

[@joshuagibson2520]

The FBI can SMD.

[@rp7r54]

HONORABLE MENTION - ROBERT WAYNE O'FERRELL AND RICHARD JEWELL

[@bunyipdragon9499]

Thanks to ghoulliani, pab45, smarmy mark meadows and others, the term RICO has become very well known. It'll be more fun when roger stone and many others get swept up too 😂

[@alexanderdaniels5696]

What happened to Simon?

[@dragonofmordor]

Bones was awesome until the last few seasons where they ruined her character. She changed completely, Booth didn't change at all, and it was really annoying. Criminal Minds is my top favorite procedural.

[@thelittlehooer]

Four Lions is fantastic. So many scenes are hilarious and deeply sad when you think of them again. Death Of Stalin, by the same team is the same way. My favourite line is; "Would you really kill me if you were ordered to?", "Yeah! I'd run you over wi' tractor" which said by a muslim actor in a thick Sheffield accent is amazing. The scene with the would-be terrorists shaking their heads left and right rapidly so CCTV cameras can't see them is great, eating the SIM cards so their burner phones can't be tracked, and then chocking on them... I have to watch this movie now.

[@joshuagibson2520]

Lawrr enforcement? What is that?

[@radotic1]

#makeKarlthehost.

[@H60Blackhawkmtp]

Who would name their kid Kyle but spell it Karl?

[@allanbaltazar2636]

.

[@chrispeck1325]

I'm so glad y'all have quit doing any research to make sure your videos are correct. Karl, you are still a terrible host.
