I don't think anything significant 'happened' to him. My experience with him is basically the same as yours; he ran out of actual food from movies and tv shows that anybody knows and started spinning off into general (not great) cooking videos and new shows for his channel (he was one of the dozens of people who tried, unsuccessfully, to find something in front of camera for Sohla El-Waylly to do) and I eventually unsubscribed from his channel.

I don't keep up on Food YouTube gossip so I don't actually know if he's been canceled for anything. While I was still watching he bought a very expensive place in New York and got "married" by Joel McHale.

it also feels racism-adjacent, like how to him Jewish names like Edelstein, Goldman or Silbermond clearly show those people work better with money or gems

My last name is similar to a liqueur of a nationality I am zero percent of.

My middle name does roughly translate to “gift from God”, and I have numerous pentagrams and St. Peter’s Crosses tattooed onto me. Maybe they should have specified which God.

There's no issue with her. She's a really good chef who isn't exactly suited to being a YouTube Personality; she doesn't have the kind of outgoing, catchphrase laden, wild-n-wacky character that makes for 'content' so attempts to, like, give her a magic spinning wheel that has ingredients on it to see what craaaaazy dish she has to make have not succeeded.

He was on Last Meals with Josh from Mythical Kitchen and described, in great detail, having a rather manic breakdown so he slowed down his channel a bunch and started having more videos be the other people on his channel like Alvin.

(I say that not to elicit a "Oh you suck for unsubscribing" reaction, for the record, but just to explain why the nature and pace of his channel changed dramatically.)
