  1. Can we stop making these videos so bloody american-centric?? You make the effort to go around the world..... and report things in your backwards, antiquated measurement systems like Fahrenheit, pounds and miles, and make a passing effort in pronouncing things, but always with 100000% valleygirl intonation and vocal fry. Please get that english guy back, or claudia from the foodie vids. P L E A S E Sincerely, _*A Big Fan Of Your Worldwide Topics & The Content Of Such Videos, But Also Someone Who Is Completely Annoyed-By, And Who Is So, SO Sick-Of——To The Point Of Considering Just Finally Unsubscribing And Being Done With The Channel Altogether, Despite My Enjoyment Of The Places And Peoples They Cover——The "Atrocious, Grating, Strong, & Sometimes Almost So Completely Distracting-From-The-Video's-Content-I-Cannot-Watch-With-Audio-On"–Type Of Strong Accent That, Somehow, All Of BI's American Narrators/Video Hosts Seem To Possess, As If It Is A Prerequisite For Doing Their Video Voiceovers And, Moreover, It Seems That This Comes With What I Can Only Describe As The "Cringe-Worthy, Low-To-No Effort, I-Do-Not-Care-About-Non-English-Words-So-Why-Bother-Trying" Approach When Pronouncing Foreign Words¹ Included With Their Atrocious Accent .... ... And I Also Say This As Someone Who Just Feels Like They Have Reached A Point With This Channel——Which, I Assure You, Used To Be One Of My Favourite Channels——Where I Am Now Just Sick And Tired Of Leaving Passionate, Uplifting ConCrit (Which I Have Done For Years At This Point) Because It Is Basically Just Me Offering Improvements And Ideas Politely Into The Void, At Least For As Much As The Channel And Its Self-Centred American Viewers Seem To Notice Or Care... ..... And, I Would Add, That I Say This As Someone Who Is, Frankly, Beyond Baffled As To How This Channel Manages to Americanse Literally Everything?!?!? ....And Someone Who Is Also Perplexed By How BI's Online Presence Seems To Be Trying To Be/Become One Of The More "Socially Concious" Brands/Orgs (Which Should Be A Positive Thing, Agreed)——And, It Therefore Seems Like It Would Be Fair To Assume——That They Are At Least Trying To Be All "Woke".... And Yet They Remain Utterly Oblivious As To How Tone-Deaf Americanising All The Subjects They Cover Is Very Not-Socially-Concious, Considering America's "Great" History Of Enslaving Folks With Darker Skin....... .... Lastly, I Just Cannot Get Over How This Channel Does Even Realise——Or Make The Effort To Know——How Much They Are Irritating The Rest Of The World With These Behaviours*_ . . . . . . . . . . . ¹ As someone from Aotearoa New Zealand, the worst of the worst was hearing "may-OR-ree", which I only knew was meant to be "Māori" from context. Do better. Be better. America. Is. NOT. The. Centre. Of. The. World. THANKYOU.
