Have to agree, that was cringeworthy. On many levels.

He sounds like a young Alfred Hitchcock with his irritating speaking cadence.

I like his vlogs. Strikes me as more sincere than the goofy stuff from GCN for instance.

I can understand him fine and he comes across well to me. Quite like hearing different accents from around the world. You just need more exposure if you can't make out what he's saying, hence the need for more like him not less :P

I still remember when he texted me for posting on my blog one of his first videos.
As for accent, even scottish accent is much easier than this.

Both have slightly odd accents, and an annoying speaking/presentation technique, but "can't understand them" really? I'd be checking out whatever you are listening to them on for damage. And then checking your ears.
