lots of goodness on YT but top of the list is Josh Turner Guitar. Josh is so much more than a hot shot guitar player. he plays several instruments well, is a more than competent singer, and has a group of people he collaborates with who are all top rate talents. he`s in a league of his own

I’m to sure if this has been mentioned yet or not, but World War 2 in Real Time uses an interesting approach to document the war. Each week is presented as a newscast, with minimal to no spoilers about well known, “upcoming” events. In their timeline it is March 1944, with the Soviets on the March in the East, the Western Allies bogged down in Italy while planning to invade France, and island-hopping gaining sway in the Pacific.

I put on Buzzfeed Unsolved Supernatural a lot, and just let it play on low volume in the background. I just enjoy their smart aleck-y approach to ghost hunting. I find it funny.

I also usually watch Corey Congilio's lessons, although he's stopped posting as regularly since he launched his website. I find his lessons to be right at my skill level, and they're short enough to digest in a few minutes.

Currently, amongst the music channels there's Josh Turner Guitar, privettricker/James James, Punk Cover Moose, Mary Spender
Lessons (as I'm still a beginner after 50 years) Jason Reade - Guitar, Andy's guitar, Eric Blackmon guitar
Beau Miles - backyard adventurer
Robert Murray Smith - makes stuff, experiments with battery technology, wind generator design, rocket stoves
Tim Sway - builds musical instruments from scrap materials
The Square Ball - Leeds United podcast
Diesel Creek - Matt rescues old equipment, builds his dream workshop
The Rest is Politics - Alistair Campbell & Rory Stewart gentlemanly political discussion
Laura Kampf - maker
Beard meets food - competitive eating
Matt Green Comedy - you probably need to be a Brit to appreciate
Michael Spicer - The room next door, again the probably need to be a Brit
Narrowboat Pirate - solo female liveaboard narrowboater, who reminds me of my favourite aunt

I watch Andertons just for Danish Pete on Telecaster and Ben on Acoustic Paradiso, I can live without the rest.
Anything Camino related, as I have foolish desires to walk next year
In the past I have spent hours looking at anything Pentax Q related, cycle race highlights, and tiny homes.

Probably the few I tend to gravitate most to are:

The People Profiles
Hitc Sevens
Mentour Now
Real Life Lore

Interestingly none of those are music related... Nonetheless, they are thought provoking material

No channels, rather a playlist of favorites for me!
^^^Ditto watch mostly music vids, or short clips from movies or TV shows on YouTube and send them to friends.

The gear related vids, it seems there’s a lot of playing an instrument or amp or pedal and hard to forward to and zero in on specifics I’d like to know about that piece of gear.

Reading written reviews about gear on the internet is faster because I can skim and skip to the section of text I want. IMHO gear videos take a lot of time and “time is money.” YMMV

They all sound good. I'll check 'em out. Always liked Zac's Vintage Guitar articles.

No, don't have a favorite channel. Aside from TDPRI, not a big screener. Never had cable or a smartphone, never streamed TV shows or movies. Only reason we have a TV is my wife wanted one.

@RosaStringWorks

Some of my favorite non-music channels:
@CowboyKentRollins
@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans
@michygoss7148- anyone with a sawmill is alright in my book
@slbdrinks-Bourbon is a good thing

Ted Woodford from Ontario Canada. Great luthier and repair guy. Does amazing work. I always learn someting from him.
See twoodfrd .He's calm, ultra careful and thorough and doesn't speak too fast. Also not snobby. Will repair Sears guitars to Martins and Gibsons with equal respect.
