Kent is a legit good cook and most of his career has been spent doing actual chuck wagon cooking. He's just leveraging his e-fame from his recipe videos to sell cookbooks and stuff.

>> No.19111369

Because Kent Rollins makes delicious recipes you actually want to eat and this guy makes the trash tier food that is no longer around fir one big damn reason - it sucked.

Townsend is good entertainment but it attracts people into history vs Rollins who attracts viewers who actually like to cook and eat good shit which there are far more of than history nerds.

John Townsend gives off creepy closet nazi vibes. Like he's just hinting life was so much better back in the good old days when gays were closeted. It skeeves people out, and correctly so. He's just another far-right Christian loony behind the costumes and old timey pots and pans.

If you want a real answer it's because a lot of streamers/youtubers have been using Kent in reaction videos because he has a funny mustache, does funny dances, cooks food that goyslop addicts would actually eat. Townsend's content just isn't built to go viral or attract reactandys.

Friendly reminder that in real life, Jon Townsend is a far-right conservative gay hating bigot.

That's why the orange fool thing was confusing. It was the woman's idea (he co-hosted that episode with a woman who works on a living history place), not his. He is deeply homophobic (hence his appeals to tradition and a prior time when gay people were coincidentally all pressured even more so than now to be closeted), and knows if his personal political beliefs got out, he would be cancelled, so he couldn't come out and say "yeah orange fool was her idea I love Trump", and that's why it got messy.

He's obsessed with tradition because white straight men feel threatened that now they aren't the only ones allowed to have power.

The odds that this man supports the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in places of public accommodation (businesses open to the general public with physical storefronts) - ARE NIL
