Yes, I have different experiences.
Josh is, indeed, very intense inside the arena as well as very animated. The joy he displays when he is succeeding, that some inexplicably take exception to, is something pool needs more of, not less. Filler reminds me of all-time great tennis player Jimmy Connors, who was incredibly animated on the court, and whose screams of joy and fist pumps galore, which some of his opponents took issue with, endeared him to tennis fans, because people came to understand how badly he wanted to succeed and how exciting it was for him when he managed to do so.
I recall the post-match interview at the 2022 Big Foot 10-ball at Derby City. After winning the final, Filler said that Fedor Gorst had outplayed him, but that having the better of the luck was the difference, displaying humility and respect for his opponent.
Finally, I'm pleased to say I've gotten to know Josh away from the table, and he's a good guy.
