Who is John Oliver?  Why is he "tenderizing meat" on a public social media platform?

I assume he's demonstrating how to prepare rump steak for rouladen.

Are meat beating technique demonstrations a regular thing on this show?

I wouldn't say that they're a regular thing, but it doesn't surprise me that he was doing it.

Oliver's show tends to be structured around long monologues seated behind a desk, where he does twenty to thirty minutes of material on a subject in the news, often political. These monologues tend to be a weird mishmash of investigative journalism and satire. One famous segment he did involved the medical debt industry, in which he found out that it was so easy to buy medical debt at pennies on the dollar that he bought thousands and thousands of dollars of it on HBO's dime and forgave it all.

As for the meat-beating, I assume it was something to do with the meatpacking industry and he was wielding a tenderizer.

In this case, it was a web exclusive on Mike Lindell & MyStore in which he used the WhackerSpoon for its intended purpose.

Tell me I'm not the only one.  Try this out, and let me know it does it for you too:

Do a Google search for {geocities}.
Does the font change?

If you put certain font-type names into Google (Times New Roman, Arial, Georgia), the search results will come out in that font. Not all, as some like Chiller and Wingdings did nothing.

If you google Dutch angle, the results will come out tilted just like the cinematic style.
