There is a lot of advice on there and it seems like Big Joel homed in on some of the more recent stuff which is more direct and preachy. For example, there is an interesting video on School of Life that goes into detail regarding the life and philosophy of Baruch Spinoza who among other things claimed it made no sense to pray to God for desirable life outcomes because life and prayer don't work that way. And now because prickly YouTube reviewers who like details more than the big picture are on the scene I should admit that understanding Baruch Spinoza claims prayer has no utility is weird and overconfident life advice that I should be suspicious of? Honestly I think you both missed the point of pondering ideas about life.
