You're amazing karl🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I found out through a DNA app a couple years ago that this guy (Arthur Flegenheimer) is legitimately my great grandfather! It's so awesome to get to watch an episode of Biographics of someone I'm related too.

@@Mafiono please do! Great movie!

Hope you're over the cold and feeling better! Your presentation of videos is great too, I really enjoy the tangents that you go on because it helps my ADHD brain follow the video because i lose focus easily 😅

You left out one of the best parts about Dutch, his interactions with Madam Queen and Bumpy Johnson’s. That was some crazy, kinda of fun sh!t yo. Also the “no you won’t” is the best part of that Simpsons episode😂

Great video today! The numerous Simpsons references were icing on the cake! Hope you feel better soon!

Karl: I don't know why the scriptwriters think they need to explain _OBVIOUS_ cultural references. 🤷 The audience: * cough cough Simon cough * (I think he grew up in a cultural faraday cage)

Excellent video on history of Dutch Schultz of the Bronx

Big Brain Smallwood! Let's go!!

Did you mention, " The Last Words of Dutch Schultz " ? A literary piece by W.S. Burroughs based on Dutch's last ramblings.

My favorite line from that episode ? Mardge asks Homer, are you running a brewery in the basement ? He says, " I ain't gonna lie to ya , Mardge " , then walks away.

You are awsome Karl ❤

I absolutly love these videos, love karl as a host, huge fan 🫘❤️

Several actors have portrayed Dutch Schultz in film and television: Vic Morrow in Portrait of a Mobster (1961), Vincent Gardenia in Mad Dog Coll (1961), James Remar in The Cotton Club (1984), Dustin Hoffman in Billy Bathgate (1991), Lance Henriksen in The Outfit (1993), and Tim Roth in Hoodlum (1997).

Love the story of Dutch!

When you said, "He wasnt really like John Wick ", I giggled.

Karls delivery is top tier 👌 hes had me laughing good from the start

Appreciate YOUR doing these videos, your humor and your voice is fine......even with a cold. Keep up the good work.

His humour is shite🤦‍♀️ his voice also sucks and the other guest host is FAR better

Yay for Karl. We're with ya bud!

Hope you get better fast Karl.

Karl, please get well soon from your sick okay. Plus, it's very good video.

Actor River Phoenix died thirty years ago last year. About time we had a Biographic about him.

I'm starting to get used to Karl doing these videos. Will always love Simon, but Karl has his own style that works for these!

Hell yeah nice pick Karl love your work this guy definitely is a worthy monster Biographics video keep it up Karl

Feel better, Karl

Thanks.

You are doing great .. including your voice

He was the grandfather of Dutch Mantell and David Schultz.

Karl, your videos are great. Don't listen to anybody who gives you hate. Matter of fact my co-worker was listening to you and she finds your voice quite attractive. Schultz's gold has been said to be on Long Island in New Jersey in the Adirondacks and probably 100 other places. Although the commission probably got all of it

Nothing better than a Simpsons reference in your history lessons.

You have a fine voice, Mr. Smallwood.

I've got a complaint to make...... Karl shouldn't have to keep saying interim during the opening lol i think he's doing a great job

2:00 - Chapter 1 - The early years 4:55 - Chapter 2 - The beer wars begin 10:35 - Chapter 3 - The beer baron vs the mad dog 16:40 - Chapter 4 - Legal woes 19:25 - Chapter 5 - Mayhem at the chop house 22:15 - Conclusion

I think your voice sounds just fine, Karl, and I think I like Biographics just as much as ever. Keep up the great work.

Schultz looks like your older messed up brother.

You're amazing karl! Please keep up the good work! And suggestion: please make a video on francis II and i of Austria🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹

Worth mentioning that in the 1930s Dutch meant German.. In German, Germany is known as Deutschland. People from Netherlands were known as "lower Dutch".

Feel better, Karl. Also, your editors should know that towards the end of the video, you refer to Thomas Dewey as Dewey Thomas. Can't help being a nit-picker, but he went on to be Governor of New York and our interstate highway is named after him, so he's a well-known figure in NY State.

Karl, I like your wit mate. Keep it up,👊🏾😎

If you aren't happy with your family name you could change it. You could combine the Smallwood and Woodcock, like Smallcock or Cockwood.

or Smallwoodcock.... even hyphenate it Small-Wood-Cock.....none of these are actually an improvement :)

Where is the original host?

Dude your voice is fine don't worry.

your very good but I still think you need a UNION!!!

As the saying goes, as you sow, so shall you reap

Small what!?!?!??

I'm really like Karl doing these videos. Simon will always be great, but Karl's style works very well! Keep him on please!

The people who are mean to you in the comments need to go away :( Don't listen to them! I hope you get to change your introduction from 'interim' to 'permanent'!

They're did you go lol

Good job! Dont let haters bring you down bud.

So "bad guys" got their name because they're a bad shot 😂

Smallwood? I bet high school was fun for you😂

You hosting doesn’t seem very interim lol. Like at work I’ve had an “interim” manager for 2 years now

the last guy they had hosting this show talked in a strange an un usual way and it was cringe

Don't hurt yourself now

I know it’s a gen 9 pokemon but it doesn’t look like it from this angle.

He was shot - he was NOT!!!!!! alive and WELL!!!!!

You ever considered that they are decent shots & know where will kill, & where they remember you

Could you do a video on Eugene Debs? He was the first and only socialist candidate in United States History. He also was the only U.S presidential candidate to run from prison.

Calling for the abolishment of the interim tag, in this case, and all cases.

I miss simon

Paided sick leave!!! Union, Union are we!!!!

I'm not sure about the rest of the U.S., but here in California, Jaywalking is no longer a crime as of last year, 2023.

Dewey wins prsidency !!

Your life is full of weird knobs. 😂😂

...No you won't!... Exactly what I was thinking. I'm watching that episode after this. I was used to Simon, but I get him on five other channels. Now I don't think I'd watch the channel if you left. "And basically said, Screw you, I'm going to shoot you in the face." Two of my girlfriends broke up with me with exactly these words. And blessedly terrible aim.

Please don't apologize. You're getting better and better at this difficult job.

Why was he buried under a stone with crosses on it?! I thought he was Jewish, or at least was identified as such by the rest of the world.

Listening to your statements I understand why Simon stopped reading the comments. I like your voice. What is wrong with people? I've come to believe the young (younger than boomers) are idiots.

Karl it’s like turning up to see Seinfeld & he’s replaced by Bobby Lee. This is the longest interim replacement.

Karl were you bullied or something? We get it Smallwood is ur real last name you don't have to keep explaining it man.

He always acts like people bully him. Who’s bullying Karl?? Stop it!

Just ignore the haters, you're doing an awesome job! Also: your voice is fine, even with a cold. And in any case I'd rather have Biographics videos hosted by you than no Biographics videos at all.

Haters are gonna hate, Karl. You’re doing a great job. Yes I needed a minute to adjust to your style, but that’s the point, I gave you a chance.

You're doing a great job, Mr. Smallwood. Thre will always be naysayers but you're doing a great job, stepping in like that!, and I hope you recover from your cold soon

Dropped into the comments to join the mob of baseball bat-wielding Karl supports yelling "WHO HURT OUR BOY??"

Paid sick leave!!! union union are we!!!!

To be perfectly honest I think he was a fake gangster playing the role. Also he took all the vices, strategies... from the Italians & Irish mobs

Not gonna lie, i actually like Karl doing these more than Simon...Simon may be goated, but Karl is just a whole different kind of vibe I can get invested in.

The name joke is getting old

Karl has grown on me. He’s learn to balance when to be serious and when to joke around. Yes he isn’t Simon, honestly Simon might have the second best voice ever after David Allan Boucher, but he’s great at what he does.

Karl is doing a great job, he has made it his own. Big shoes to fill, all that, but I do look forward to him hosting!

101st

Simon just can't do everything people... he's only one person after all (maybe ;)... Karl, my request/ wish for you is stop giving haters power by mentioning their mean spirited comments so often. Punk Rock up a bit dearie - and don't give a f×@k! you are a young and talented person - apologize only when deserved - and seriously, your name is not that funny, people need to leave the 4th grade re: that keep on keeping on Karl, you are trending up but you need to not care and feel confident despite comments

I like listening to Karl. FAR better than Simon, in many ways. People who have "issues" with the way he speaks are just trolls; at best. Plato comes to mind... "Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools speak because they have to say something". Trolls so bored, that they take time and put in effort to think up ssshhhT to say about something; anything. Bla bla, yap yap. Type type, click. Screaming up to their parent(s) from the basement.

Do you ever take a shower and comb your hair? I had better style in 4th grade

Karl is much better than Simon! Fire Simon, hire Karl asap
