NeverKnowsBest For very in depth game essays. He has a 2:44:46 in depth look into the history of MMO's. 2:03:15 Elder Scrolls analysis. And he has an absolutely comforting voice that sweeps you along so easily that you don't even feel the time pass.
Mortismal He reviews games after he 100% them, makes guides, game lore, builds. His favorite genre is tactical rpg's but he'll to do others of people ask him to. The man is a consummate professional, and work horse. Puts out a video 5 days a week. He went from foster care, to being homeless to making a living doing what he loves. Used to put up posters offering to make game guides for money when he was a kid.
Lex Fridman He did long form interviews of really brilliant people. Novel prize winning scientists, mathematicians, biologists, philosophers, politicians, tech moguls, artists. The list goes on. He's not funny, but he is refreshingly sincere in his wanting to try and understand the topics, people, and life. He's a Russian-American computer scientist and research scientist at the MIT Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems.I don't always agree with him, but I love getting to listen to the people he interviews.
Quinn's Ideas A wonderful fan of sci-fi that reviews and explore the worlds of great sci-fi novels, turning over the abstract concepts inside those universes. He has an extensive playlist on the world of Dune, Lovecraft, authors I've never heard of, and he also covers other nerdy things too. He has a wonderful voice that brings you down into the world he's describing. You can tell her really gets into the books he reads, the more mysterious or awe inducing the better.
Wes Roth I recently found this guy. He reports on current news on AI. He does a great job at explaining things you would be too afraid to ask about for fear of sounding stupid. He's not an AI expert he's just discovering AI advancements with you, for you. Calm, nothing flashy, and curious to see where this is headed. If you wish you had time to look up and read about what's new in AI, this is your guy.
The Big Lez Show An all knowing multidimensional immortal Aussie Sasquatch doing a bunch of drugs, also some humans and some aliens.
The Royal Institute Like TED talks but in Great Britain, much longer, more in depth and very scientific. The intended audience are scientists, but some talks are just too fascinating to miss out on.
Luetin09 Warhammer 40k everything. Really great lore videos that are darkly beautiful to watch. He is a veritable font of WH40K knowledge.
dslyecxi It's like watching a team of military professionals conduct missions in ARMA 3, and with all of the hilarious fuckery that ensues. ARMA 3 is a realistic military sim, nothing like the arcadey Call of Duty or Modern Warfare. Really great footage.
Edit: Mr Sunday Movies Movies, comic, and TV shows, shooting up your butthole. They're Australian, but they make up for it.
Also Technology Connections.
