    Can confirm, he is the host.

    I don’t mind that he’s black, but he is cringe af as a television host. Not professional or eloquent at all. Not funny, but definitely trying his hardest to be so. Lame jokes that he laughs at himself, sometimes the only one who laughs, which is… uuughhh.

    I think he is there to appeal to a certain subdemographic of youth, and that is definitely not me. 😬 I can imagine certain people like him for his performance though.

      Sounds like the timeless qualifications for being a reality show host tbh

        Well, we hold people to a higher standard on certain channels. A few select channels we expect a higher standard of entertainment because of their decades long history of quality. But uh, yeah. I guess this guy’s an acquired taste.

          That’s cool that there are still standards for any channels there, lol. What’s the subdemographic you think he’s appealing to?

            Younger folk who are of lower IQ, I’m gonna keep it real. Maybe even older people than youth, of the same caliber.
