It’s weird how just a change in lighting can make you look like: a flirt, a chap, charming, meh, crazy, and a little greasy

@a.h101

Pogo looks like he was ripped straight out of the 1940s, even facially. It's crazy.

@gavinagain4631

He's a master at lighting, this video is the best example, as the lighting is meant to have that 40s through 60s exaggerated T zone focus, and of course he built his own time machine in 1943, with his genius hair and smile!

@garrethollingsworth1515

I feel like most people "could" pull that off but he does it extremely well

@love2laugh791
