YouTube Channels (Master Thread)

[Spracne]

Your YouTube Channels (Master Thread). Lately I've been into the following:

Jet Lag: The Game (various games of basically hide and seek around the world, but mostly Europe).

Jolly (Brits who review mostly American food "for the first time").

Wendover Productions. (Edu-tainment about various subjects)

and the thing that I get made fun of for the most, Steve1989MRE Info (Guy who tastes vintage and modern military rations from around the world).

What you got?

I am a known reactophile but jolly is way too over the top for me.

Wendover is p good.

Most of what I watch are fairly niche, like civ6 gameplay and starcraft 2 competitive. I am no good at sc2 but it's an amazing game to watch, the football of the video game world imo. If you're interested in checking it out, the channel "LowkoTV" does a daily commentary of a pro match. "uThermal" is a former pro who commentates his own games in real time and tries out a lot of fun or unusual strategies.

For reaction content I really like "The Normies", "ur internet mom ash", and "Jimmy Macram"

Of course Channel 5 with Andrew Callahan

Kallmekris is another one of the larger channels I like a lot.

There are a lot of others in the algo that I don't know the name of but tend to check out when they release a new video. Like infographics and warographics, something like that. Kinda similar to Wendover.

The DW docs are usually pretty good. I watched one on Thai sex tourism and it sent me into an algo hole of watching videos from the old fat guys who move to Thailand and it was gross but also fascinating with all the lingo and scams and whatnot.

I watch A LOT of YouTube....

I watch family travel stuff, youth baseball coach stuff, youth baseball gear reviews, and podcasts I sometimes listen to but watch them record them live instead of listening to them (lmao I realize)

Been a while since I've visited the YouTuber for browsing purposes.

Now adays I mostly use it for Minecraft build tutorials, but when I do decide to go down a rabbit hole I usually check out new episodes of Bad Lip Reading and You Suck at Cooking.

Oh man, way too many to mention here.  I live on YouTube for the most part.

DOCUMENTARY/HISTORY:
The Wendover/Jet Lag stuff is great.
The B1M is top notch for construction geeks.
Mr Beat is interesting/informative

TRAVEL/ADVENTURE:
Abroad in Japan is usually very entertaining.  Relevant for steve dave probably.
SteveMarsh and Planes, Trains, Everything are a couple of Scottish dudes' channels that do travel vlogs all over Europe.
Simon Wilson is similar, except for more worldly
Mav is fun.
Bald and Bankrupt is great for seeing parts of the world you'd never travel to.
The stealth campers (Blot Outdoors, Steve Wallis, etc.) are fun.
I was turned on to the Greg McCahon channel by someone in the cycling thread here, enjoying following his progress

MUSIC/ENTERTAINMENT:
I love watching Coachella every year on YouTube.
TPD TV is pretty amazing stuff, a bunch of English lads that go to music festivals every weekend and get absolutely hammered.
Mystery Science Theater 3000 has about 5 24/7 live streams now, great for background noise.
Rick Beato has a lot of interesting stuff, although I'll admit I don't watch his channel much any more.
Digging the Greats has been fantastic
Doctor Mix is also pretty cool

AUTOMOBILES:
Love Vice Grip Garage, dude's hilarious.
DRIVETRIBE is good for Top Gear/Grand Tour fans.
I enjoy the Out of Spec Motoring and Out of Spec Reviews channels for electric car stuff

SPORTS:
I watch Away Days and StuntPegg because I dig the soccer nerd stuff.
Tons of obscure sports stuff is live on there, last couple of weekends I watched some of the World 9 Ball Tour
Goodwood Festival of Speed is on there every year, as well as some racing events from Australia and Europe

GAMING:
GeoWizard is bonkers sometimes.  He had a video where he dribbled a soccer ball across England (75 miles) in under 24 hours.
Ambiguous Amphibian is pretty funny

MISCELLANEOUS:
I don't really watch the channels like Jolly and Jamel_AKA_Jamal where they try new stuff and react, I think those are mostly fake and forced.  However, the Irish People Try channel is always good for a laugh.
Carl Rogers, The Pethericks and Life of Ryan are English ex-pats doing renovation projects in the French countryside, very nice.
Big Jet TV for you plane spotters.
Big Rig Travels for your American truck driving needs.
Raspberry Rock Off Grid Cabin is good, the videos are a tad slow but the vibes are good.
Been getting into Truck House Life a bit lately, he's fun.

This list above is by no means comprehensive of all the channels I watch regularly, but all of them are enjoyable IMO.

Wendover as mentioned is p-good, as is Half as Interesting.

I like Oversimplified a ton, but it's a pretty rare upload (I get it takes a while just patience).

B1M as someone mentioned is pretty good. My gf and I like the Local Project for fun house designs.

LockPickingLawyer is also quirky but like asmr fun, and you do learn a ton about locks/security.

Older one but buzzfeed unsolved is fun to go back and watch some real good ones, same with puppet history on Watcher., and ruining history on buzzfeed.

Also Jay Foreman is pretty good, especially the map men episodes.

Casually explained has slowed down his content but lots of good ones in there.

And yeah, Mr Beat is pretty darn good, also fun given he's a local Kansan.

Natalie Brunell - Former MSM journalist who does a bitcoin podcast now, she's awesome

The Flat Top King - Amazing cooking channel where everything is done on a griddle

Pellets and Pits - Same guy and wife from Flat Top King but for smoking stuff

PlanB - Stock to flow stuff for bitcoin
