    Hickok45 is a great channel if you enjoy firearm reviews and shooting up the backyard.

    Say what?

    No Mad Dog channel on your list?

    I’m upset.

    :D

    My dear sir!

    All this time I've been on this forum and nobody has had the decency to inform me of your channel.

    To whom shall I file my official complaint?!

    Heading there now!

    Edit: though, to be fair, I did say non watch related... 217f060bd26ba3169e13410be20a025b.jpg

    All of the channels listed are on YouTube.
    I have watched hickok45 for years. Saw him in person at a gun show and shook his hand. Really tall guy and was great to talk to. Sootch00 is also entertaining. Iv8888 has a lot of barrel meltdown videos that are entertaining as well, I like his older vids as he has turned more gun law talk showish.

    If you like watching watching video games being "exploited" I really enjoy The Spiffing Brit. He is quite funny especially with his tea empire talk and how coffee is to be outlawed and is the source of everything wrong.

    Epic rap battles of history can be good. I enjoy the 3v3 philosophy battle and Teddy Roosevelt v Winston Churchill. There is a little bit of cursing in these rap battles, so may not be safe for work.

    Auto Tempest is uploading a series following Freddie Tavarish, Tyler Hoover, and Ed Boolian on a cool road trip / adventure. Show is Top Gear like and is really enjoyable thus far.

    I also really enjoy Bon Appetit cooking videos. They have some fun playful series and then really great recipes with a good and lively group of chefs.

    Collectability has an interesting YouTube with all things Patek. There’s probably more but I’m forgetting.

    My number one recommendation would be "The History Guy: History deserves to be remembered". Over the past couple years he's produced hundreds of videos over an incredibly diverse number of historical topics, most of which are incidents, people, places, etc that aren't widely known today. I know of no other Youtube channel that is more bingeworthy since the videos aren't topical to current events, and can be enjoyed at any time.

    If you only check out one I recommend, make sure that The History Guy is it, but there are a few others that I really enjoy and are worth your time:

    Answers with Joe:

    Mostly science based discussion on a number of topics

    Medlife Crisis - a London based cardiologist:

    Project Farm:

    Pretty much the best and most rigorous testing/comparison videos out there. Zero sponsorship - all products purchased by Todd using funds from Patreon.

    And if you enjoy coffee, James Hoffman:

    Whenever I have free time, I end up watching any of the Crash Course series. I love all of the facilitators!

    I recently found I Hate Everything and frequently laugh hysterically to the content. It's pretty well done. I'm also a big horror film fan, and Dead Meat is a cool youtube show when they do "Kill Counts" of popular movies.

    I have found the Kevin Pollak Chat Show to be pretty entertaining. 1.5 to 2.5 hour interviews that are on par with (and, dare I say, even better than) Howard Stern's. Out of the few I have watched, the ones with Bill Heder, Jason Alexander, Dick Van Dyke, and Larry David were very good.

    If you’re into classic cars, vintage & modern, plus reviews of electric cars, etc. then Harry Metcalfe is highly recommended. You can live vicariously via his road trips in Silver Shadows, Esprits and Countachs, etc:

    Harry’s Garage - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIB5XXHNAWWzTOw6guIMYCg

    Harry introduced Ian Tyrrell who can tune a Miura by ear, and restores many of Harry’s cars. The way he explains the workings of Lambo engines is fascinating:

    Tyrrell’s Classic Workshop - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2pQT90JBqbMHSVLtbJBvyw

    If you enjoy old rally cars this channel has mainly 80s and 90s (the VHS era) classic racing:

    VHS Rallies - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCesaDWLDQd-rPk3G9SS8A7Q

    And Harry again, this time showing how he runs his farm:

    Can't like this post enough, I am a big sucker for Harry's garage. He has an amazing collection, which he properly uses, and he is 0% smug about it
