Does anyone tune in to C.S. Joseph's "How to Type Famous People" segment on Youtube?
If you're not familiar, here's the Playlist. He started off doing one person at a time but I really started watching when he started doing clusters.

(I'd start at the middle of the playlist, his method has been a little harder to follow recently.)
Here's a list of his typings:https://www.csjoseph.life/famous?r_done=1
I trust most of them due to the method he uses. I employ a lot of his techniques when I type. He basically uses interaction styles and temperament but he has a cool little chart that helps me narrow down just as he does in his videos.
I was curious to know if anyone else is familiar with this. I watch his videos then go in to the threads on here and I see how people just "assume" celebrities' types, get it wrong, argue with eachother, use their MOVIE CHARACTER personas, and music lyrics that the artist didn't even write, to type.
I think if we all got familiar with this method it would help us type more correctly. I also use his confirmed typings for VI.
(His other lectures are hit or miss. I enjoy his series on the individual types and the cognitive functions but he doesn't believe in socionics IR and is instead encouraging people to get with what would be their contrary partners- but in his defense I wouldn't take Fi advice from an ENTp.)
