      I’ve just done a bunch of googling.

      Mostly he’s just quoted as saying he didn’t charge for the session. The “strongest” quote I could find said it “[was] not a service I ever have or would offer outside of the context of this article”, which I guess just means he was dumb enough to be sucked in by the tabloid “journalist” who asked him to try it. 😬

      In the same interview, he was asked for details about how the article misrepresented the events, and he pointed to a 6-year-old [at the time] radio interview that was obviously longer available.

      Idk. It’s slightly more nuanced than I’d assumed, but I now just think he’s weak, a bit thick, and a poor communicator. 😅
