Replying to a redditor:

> What's the correct pronunciation of your name? Mar-quez? Mar-quise? Or would you prefer everyone call you MKBHD?

> Mar-kez, phoenetically. You know, it's been hilarious how often and how many ways people find to mispronounce it. I generally don't  correct people, because it's not a huge deal. But a few weeks ago I was golfing and I met someone on the first tee and we shook hands and exchanged names. 30 minutes later he's calling me from across the fairway saying "Marquise! I found your ball!"

> And I... sir, I never spelled my name to you. I only said it out loud. How are you already mispronouncing it?!

Replying to a redditor:

> Hey MKBHD, what hobby do you have that we don't know about? Love your videos btw!

> Most people don't know: I've been a golfer for 13 years (since I was 10). My first 2 uploads to my channel were of my golf swing for analysis by random internet strangers. Have had a single digit handicap for a couple summers.

### u/Marques-Brownlee in r/IAmA, Jul 10, 2020 · Advice

Replying to a redditor:

> I noticed the Spotify playlist (MKBHD videos) has a few songs that are French. Do you speak French?

> I'm almost always listening to music. One thing about my brain is it won't let me concentrate on writing/researching if the music I'm listening to has lyrics. But a great hack is to listen to music that doesn't have English lyrics so it doesn't trigger my brain to listen to the words and I can still enjoy the genre and the beat.

Replying to the post "On his podcast MKBHD claims Nissan has never made a track car and he's willing to argue that the GT-R is not a track car. Wasn't the GT-R literally banned from racing for winning too much?".

> I have since educated myself and fully take back my claim hah. Shoutout to the comments section for putting me on the history of the GTR
