Keep up the good work 😊😊

The DJ who played Bohemian Rhapsody was the late great Kenny Everett

[@remyw.4959]

Ka ka ka Karl. From "kicking it old school" Check it out

[@tonysolino3131]

Karl is doing a great job and frankly looks like he is working out. Well done Karl.

[@kirtknierim3687]

Agreed, I won't be poking fun at his name. Lol

[@Spartan-tx6nr]

So gay

[@RealSaintB]

Yeah Karl improves every day. At first I was like "Where's Simon?" but Karl is solid and there are 38 other channels with Simon.

[@GatherYeRosebudsWhileYeMay]

Lmfao what type of comment is that…. I think his mum just made her first KZbin account

[@lionellerner]

When did Karl take over? Just noticed

[@ec3232]

I really wish they would just finally promote Karl from "interim" host too permanent host! He's been doing such an amazing job!!

[@andreawylie1527]

"Have the day you deserve..." Always sounds vaguely threatening.... Lmao😂

[@IDontGiveAF188]

Can Karl just become the permanent host?

[@ec3232]

Agreed!! He's doing an amazing job

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Love your content karl! Suggestion: Best epithats monarchs have earned

[@ToptenzNettop10]

We'll see if an author wants to tackle that one! Thank you!

Keeping the Germans out of Spain during WWII wasn't what was important to Britain. It was keeping the Germans out of Gibraltar that was important as that could have closed off the Mediterranean to the British. And the easiest way to Gibraltar for the Germans was through Spain. Well worth $200 mil.

[@BoyNamedSue4]

10:00 no it’s still a thing. The difference is that now big record labels outright own a lot of stations

[@Jyiber]

I wish for a moment we'd see a force ghost with as much IDGAF energy as Harrison Ford.

[@Bombsuprise]

Oh, Tinytimber... your self effacing jokes make me laugh every time.

[@I_am_Allan]

Hello Karl, great video. You best become the permanent host of T10!

You do know we have been making cheese since the 5th millennium BC right?

[@j.p.6932]

12:30 1) If they really wanted to increase voter turnout, they’d keep with the tradition of booze for votes, but make selling it on Election Day illegal. 2) Tom Hanks made a movie about Charlie Wilson called, “Charlie Wilson’s War”.

[@roberw1912]

The French Connection is a fantastic film. I only watched it for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It's amazing finding why the car chase scenes look so realistic.

[@terrafirma5327]

Your most professional video yet, Karl.

[@FriendlyChemist907]

He literally moved to Jamaica. He was running from something else for sure

[@danclouse1628]

Your wood may be small but at least it isn't broken.

[@Sarappreciates]

How are large campaign donations any different than bribery if your candidate wins?

[@bunyipdragon9499]

That's why the term owner/donor has become popular. Always check who is giving either large or regular or both "donations" to the candidate if ANY political party to see how they'll actually vote rather than believe what's coming out of their mouth. If they are solely backed by their own "supercar" check who donates to that pack !

[@BoyNamedSue4]

7:00 PO TA TO! Boil em, mash em, put ‘em in a stew.

That was so enjoyable to watch. My mindset about 3 or 4 different things changed because of this lol

I think Mr Smallwood is hilarious. Potatoes is a hilarious word when said by a Brit 8:04

[@danielsimmonds2507]

Not what I was expecting from the title but still an interesting video! Keep up the good work, ladies and gents!

[@rhov-anion]

I am two degrees separated from Kevin Bacon. I was an extra in "First Daughter" directed by Forest Whitaker. (I got to meet him.) Forest Whitaker and Kevin Bacon were in "The Air I Breathe." Thus I am 2 degrees separated from Kevin Bacon. Do I bring that up whenever the game gets played? Ooooh yes.

[@yeahitskimmel]

I'm glad Mr.DiminutiveTimber has given us free permission to make these jokes so I don't have to feel bad

[@ds5015]

Here in Japan Smallwood is actually a very common name (Kobayashi 小林)!

[@katashworth41]

I now want to see Karl take up his surname’s sakes job (there’s a pair of brothers Junshiro and Ryoyu who are ski jumpers).

[@hawkeyes4768]

10% goes to the big guy lol

[@LauraKnotek]

Please keep Karl as a permanent host. He does an outstanding job.

[@robburgess4556]

Two Bacon facts, who would thunk it? 😁

[@Valheru808]

Keep Karl!

[@leighpowell1062]

Kevin Bacon was excellent in Tremors

[@Azphreal]

Kevin Bacon would not do the Footloose dance even if it was played as he has admitted it was a double who did most of it.

[@blackgirlcouchreviews]

Love ya, Karl.

[@j.p.6932]

6:13 Granted. I was going to say deep fry it and/or drown it in butter.

[@russelllomando8460]

that was fun. thanks.

[@eph2vv89only1way]

I even saw bacon candy canes in a store once

[@cheekyfragrance]

You'll always be Karl BIGWood to us.

[@AnnaAnna-uc2ff]

Thanks.

[@patrickmullen237]

Keep going Karl! You are good at being a host

[@texasslingleadsomtingwong8751]

And bacon is now too expensive to buy .

I love anything Karl does!

9:45 I don’t know that I’ve heard bribery described as “the payola system”.

[@spudthepug]

I feel the last name pain. Mine is Smalley.

[@TraitorVek]

Bohemian Rhapsody Radio DJ... Was it Kenny Everett perhaps ?

[@martinmaynard141]

My thoughts exactly. I think you have to be of a certain age to know who he was. I will be 62 next week and he was part of my youth. Most people involved in KZbin channels were at best small children when he died in 1995)

[@reggiep75]

Yeah, it was Kenny Everett and there's a recording of that event here on KZbin.

[@tressal4967]

Smallwood? I want to see! (You said feel free to tell you one you never heard...) 😉

[@thestevenjaywaymusic7775]

Sorry, but that part about Bohemian Rhapsody is totally wrong. Kenny Everette was a friend of Freddie, and heard the track, after being invited to the studio. Freddie said he wanted it to be the single, but it was too long and EMI would never agree. Kenny said, don’t worry, I will sort it. He played bits of it on his radio show over the next few hours and created a vibe. Thank god for him!

[@BabyMakR]

HOLLOWMAN!!! Karl and me on the same page!!!!

[@ripn929707]

Epic Meal Time riding that wave with the... BACON STRIPS AND BACON STRIPS AND BACON STRIPS AND BACON WEAVE!!!!🤪😋🤑

Most Europeans got their last names from their professions. Karl/Coral’s name come from a Grandfather who was a male sculpture model

[@hughman1356]

Oh tes the irish guy likes ro say the word potato.... someone give the writers a bloody raise

[@ChaseandJess]

I love Karl and watch all his content even though he blocked me on social media years ago

[@tyanaichigovera7308]

The fascist Spain and Britain fact about WW2 is messy on a historical level

[@wilcosmash]

Was "That DJ" Kenny Everett, perchance?

[@dearthditch]

Potatoes are still poisonous if they’re tinged green

[@bunyipdragon9499]

Only the green bits. Generations have grown up broke enough to cut out the green (with excess white to be on the safe side) if larger potatoes and your fine.

[@mattday2656]

first time I heard bohemian rhapsody as a kid, I lost my shit.

[@PassiveAssassin]

Is that rock lobster in the background of the intro?

Karl "Not So" Smallwood

[@33wolf33]

Boots have been filled simon move over. What drew me to top tenz was the deap pan delivery and well researched topics. So much so i discovered the other channels simon was hosting love all the "graphics" channels however the gripe i have is the tangents. The casual criminalist is a perfect example when the hosts harps on about not making it a gore fest or to spotlight the villans and says its about honour ing the victims memory then rattles on abot their holiday house in the hills comes across a bit incencire. Which is a shame it has some incridible writers, is beautifuly edited (love your work jen) and is a genuinely intersting to watch. Cal your bonus facys are topical and fit in to the setting your doing a great job and looking forward for some more vids. P.s thank you for the many uears of entertainment and hard work keep up all the good work! Especially the people behing the scenes we dont see. Xo

[@GeraldBlack1]

Don't forget to Like, Subscribe, and BRIBE lol.

[@ToptenzNettop10]

With BACON!

[@Grisu1805]

Regarding the potato fact: Basically the very same thing is said to have happened in Germany (Prussia, to be precise) under king Frederick II ("Frederick the Great").

[@theresalaux5655]

I like Karl. I think he does a good job!😊

[@oubliette862]

a potato that's green is poisonous, maybe even deadly. I can't remember offhand, but the potato itself can go bad and I don't mean spoiled.

[@bunyipdragon9499]

Only the green bits - many people have been broke enough to find out that by cutting the green out (with excess white flesh to be on the safe side) of larger sounds the spud is edible.

[@tonyahinrichs8828]

You are a largewood to me Karl

[@crispinbishop7518]

You should call yourself Karl Copse

[@InquisMalleus]

George Washington gave, on average, about 1.1 quarts of whiskey per voter, plus other alcohol. This was actually common at the time, but was often viewed negatively and people who won elections by this were looked down upon. It was expensive, but effective.

[@BigJeremyBeyer]

Since you requested a joke.you have not heard, I will attempt to. Is your middle name Hasa?

[@hughman1356]

Came here expecting simon.... this was ok. You guys should get him to host again.

[@johndough2441]

I'd say change it to BigSwingingSmallWood

[@flareinc7413]

The audio is still off but he is getting better although articulation is a thing Kale should work with more. . It was a very big leap to give this channel to someone as first channel but atleast Karl develops to the job.

[@memphisdaniels3218]

I see Simon has abandoned another channel 😢 that's a shame, this was one of my favourites. Does anyone know which ones he is planning to keep? I would assume Brain Blaze and Today I Found Out are safe? I subbed to all Simons channels it feels like bekng at a funeral everytime I unsub from a channel that he has sold on or whatever, like the end of an era.

[@danielwolf6875]

WOW!!!! BEST 200 MILLION DOLLARS EVER SPENT!!!!!! Hands down, bottom line, that's it. Damn, thank G-D for that cash flow....like, S××T! XD

[@latenighter1965]

Yet Kevin Bacon does it on his own on his tiktok channel and other places.

[@upstating]

I believe your last name is indeed Smallwood because, no offense, what guy would pick it?

[@zeroreyortsed3624]

If you think you have it bad Kyle, i know someone who's last name is Glascock, and first name is Richard.😂 And his son is a Jr. So i can't help but call him little Dick Glascock. Just as a joke.😅

[@j.p.6932]

2:16 Actors don’t get paid for talk show appearances? That seems counterintuitive. There have to be certain scenarios where they do or don’t get paid - like if they’re promoting a film or just making a personal appearance. Especially when they’re flown in.

[@thegreenbee83]

Maybe if there promoting a movie it’s part of the contract? I know actors usually have press junkets to do they could also have talk show appearances /news interviews etc? But yes I wouldn’t go on anything like either without being paid

[@ilionreactor1079]

The guilds/unions don't let anyone do anything for free. There is always a base rate.

[@j.p.6932]

@@ilionreactor1079 I know you can get a SAG waiver for an independent project, but… So why is he saying they’re not compensated for talk show appearances?

[@bunyipdragon9499]

It gets factored into their contracts as appearance or promotional fees etc prior to the film being made.

[@MrAdamArce]

For the Thai police but, wouldn't bribing your own police just be either a pay raise or a pay bonus. "If we pay you enough to live a happy healthy life, will you stop taking bribes?"....... "What if we also include life imprisonment if you get caught taking bribes?" News: Bribes Drop *Yay!* Police Death Rate Rises l *Nooo!* I have no idea what actually happened, just a joking guess

[@robertbeaman5761]

What if you bribe the police with a piece of candy ?

[@Obihann]

Hey, in all honesty, I still miss Simon. His delivery, tone of voice etc all work perfectly. That being said, I can see Karl has settled into the role a bit more. What I don't like is the fact the same ba ground is used on multiple sets, why? If you're promoting different channels, the least you can do is allow them to have independent setups!

[@RealSaintB]

Another reason Spain stayed neutral is through the efforts of Germany's own head of military intelligence!

[@giantred]

Feels a little weird (but somehow, in my opinion, fitting) that an ad in support of trump ran during this video

[@bethanywicker8990]

What are your tattoos?

[@mewsailorsakura]

I’m sorry but is anyone else tired of hearing “interim host”? Cuz I just want Karl to stay and be the host. Just. The Host. Karl Smallwood, but Biglove ❤️

[@TM-yn4iu]

Dude, late watch - had on list, but you should drop the name explanation. It's clearly impacted your life, understandably, but you're past that. It's not a thought, but your life. Focus on today and your talent, if that's something someone thinks about - rare - but because of their insecurities...and "small" mindset. Seriously. Old guy from ATX

[@thestevenjaywaymusic7775]

I like what you have done here, but what the f..k does ‘Interim’ mean? You are doing this temporarily, or you are doing this, because Simon Whistler doesn’t want to do it anymore? A bit of honesty wouldn’t go amiss here! I have been a long time follower of this channel and I would like to be told the truth!

[@rosejustice]

*Interim* means the person who is _temporarily_ doing the job. Does this mean Karl is permanently the host? We don't know. But for the time being he is.

[@joeobrien196]

Simon has left the channel and some other channels too.

[@maniacgb8609]

You again, get lost, your not Simon, I'm not going to watch this video either.

[@aslanthebear3216]

Disappointed to see karl still here you present arrogance and come across as obnoxious. I am unsubscribing
