Favorite Youtube Channels
Yes, Google is Evil. But we all have a couple creators we like.
Nerd Shit:
Adrian's Digital Basement Nerd fixes old computers.
Adrian's Digital Basement II Same nerd fixes more old computers.
Mac 84 Different nerd.
Branchus Creations Another nerd but also Australian. And he gave me some excellent soldering technique tips during a couple livestreams.
Mr. Carlson's Lab Canadian nerd, mostly radio rebuilds.
Technology Connections Theater Nerd
Also Nerd Shit, But You Sometimes Bleed:
Honey Badger Woodworking Super precise woodworker. Learn something new every video.
Stud Pack The dad is a font of tips on keeping things very, very precise when doing remodeling work.
South Main Auto I'd say it's like fixing cars with your conservative drunk uncle, but he's actually younger than me? He's got a gift for electronics diagnoses.
History In General:
Nicole Rudolph History of culture and design mostly. I follow it for the old house design/decor stuff.
Ask a Mortician History and topics related to death, funerals, etc.
Drachinifel British centric naval history channel.
Well There's Your Problem "Dudes rambling into microphones" podcast, but one of the dudes is Alice and they talk about systemic issues and social murder a lot. Alice also produces and makes a few other podcasts worth following.
Mentour Pilot Used to be more general aeronautical stuff, but now it's mostly disaster porn.
Other:
Laurel & Hardy (The recent biopic "Stan & Ollie" with John C. Reilly was excellent.)
Quick Questions Typical talking-head-bros podcast but they're actually interesting and funny people.
Patrick BoyleApparently he actually IS a business professor and hedge fund manager - for quite a while I assumed he was a comedian doing a bit. His memecoin video is must-watch.
I think that's enough for now. Share your faves!
