Slightly tangential,
but on a couple of his vids, he does an imitation clapper-board thing with his hands at the start.
Anyone know why? And, as a follow-on, anyone know why he leaves them in the broadcast version?

I would think that
when he's filming he records video (camera) and audio (microphone) separately. The clapper board clap will make it easier to sync up the video and audio later in editing.
This is the reason for clapper boards generally.
Why does he leve them in? Don't know. Cinéma vérité? Is that the right phrase?

He prides himself in his videos being in one take.
A lot involve him walking and talking, then arriving at his destination (or the point) at the right moment.
I reckon that could be why his delivery can seem odd. Trying to get the timing right.
The clapperboard bit is probably to emphasize that it is one take.

You might be right,
Although, for the record, I don't find his delivery to be odd.
