The speaker in the video asks why hasn't the sun reached its highest point by 1.30?
First, has he allowed for daylight savings time? He doesn't say that he has, and most smartphones and other devices would have their default time display set to whatever is the official standard for their location. Most time zones in the United States would be on DST in July, with their clocks set an hour ahead of true solar time. If his display is set to DST, 1.30 is equivalent to 12.30 by solar time.
This still leaves a discrepancy of 30 minutes or so. The speaker does mention that he is near the edge of his time zone, so this could account for it.
Then there is the complication of mean solar time. The earth's orbit around the sun is slightly elliptical, and in accordance with Kepler's Laws it moves more quickly when it is closer to the sun (which in the northern hemisphere happens to be in the winter) than when it is further away. Since it would be inconvenient for the length of the hour or day to vary, the official time in any time zone is a compromise. Usually true solar midday is slightly later or earlier than the local clock time of 12 noon, even after allowing for the factors already mentioned.
I didn't understand the speaker's other points. He seems to find it odd that the sun rises somewhere to the north of east in July, but in the northern hemisphere, at around 44 degrees N, this is what we would expect in the summer, due to the inclination of the earth's axis. If he doesn't understand this basic point he is unlikely to be right about anything else.
