Kind of tired watching trash from YT.

Edit: Thanks for all the replies. It's good to see that there are still gems in YouTube.

I scrolled quite a ways and did not see anyone mention "Well, there's your problem". Its a podcast about engineering disasters with slides and pronouns.

"The Infographics Show" kind of my favorite.

Also recently seen video "Tourism in Afganistan" recorded less than year ago. Interesting content I would say.

MrBallen is a guy who retells storys in a very compelling way. Stories of murder-cases, odd occurences, sinister events, etc.

This channel is really worth listening/watching (and also binging). I discovered his channel two years ago and follow it ever since. The videos length unsually varies between 15 to 30 minutes. Although the video's thumbnails and titles appear like it is clickbait, each video is well-made and worth a watch! Almost every Sunday a new video is uploaded.

Legit Street Cars, Primitive Technology, Ghost Town Living, Donut (their older stuff is better than newer), Colin Furze (older stuff also better than new, but newer stuff is bigger, more expensive projects as his channel has grown), Blackmail Studio and Wristwatch Revival. Those are the YT channels I'm constantly watching (along with Critical Role, but excluded due to length of episodes).

Edit: Oh and SpyroPyro does some awesome stuff with Lasers.

History Matters is absolutely hilarious if you like world history and British humor.
