I would like to see his sources because that contradicts the most well known studies. There are still a lot of paleoanthropologists who don't think that interbreeding was possible at all and the apparent Neanderthal admixture in modern humans is due to contamination.

I can track down the studies he’s criticising. A Google search doesn’t show up anything refuting those. What are the studies he’s citing?

Watched it. He didn't present _any_ sources supporting his claims. There's nothing there.
