The Music and live gig ones, the aviation pilot videos and the freight train riders in the US are the ones I get carried away with most . I am now into stealth campers and of course the booze review ones which take up even more time. Just amazing amount of content. From older documentaries to actual channels like Bald and Bankrupt.

heartsfc_fan Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 If you like cars and the whole buying and selling process look up "High Peak Autos" on YouTube. Guy had been quite successful and I enjoy watching his videos. Sometimes buys a complete shed and tidies it up for sale. Couple more good car ones are "Car Throttle" and "Auto Alex". They don't take themselves seriously but there is a bit of old Top Gear vibe about them. Cheap car challenges, fixing them up. Some good comedy.

Cade Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Auto Shenanigans. Covers the history of the UK's motorways and A-road networks. Far more interesting than you may think. Atomic Shrimp. A total mixed bag from a regular bloke. From cooking to gardening to foraging to scambaiting to playing about with electronics. World War Two. Covering the entire war week-by-week in a faux newsroom setting, with lots of special episodes covering various other things more in-depth. Most recently did a 24 hour show on D-Day. Wristwatch Revival. A bloke fixing up old mechanical watches. Stick the Repair Shop up yer bum, this is the good stuff. Trash Theory. Music documentaries, charting the emergence of a particular artist or an entire music genre. Excellent. Rescue & Restore. Full restorations of knackered old objects, uploads very infrequently. No music, no voiceover, just the work being done. Very Zen. Life in Jars? Young Dutch guy who fills glass jars with rainwater or pondwater and sees what life appears, sometimes over many years. Steve1989MREInfo. A dude who tracks down, buys and consumes military rations. And not just modern ones. He's eaten stuff from as far back as WW1. Primitive Technology. Auzzie guy who builds things without any tools. From wooden shacks to clay pots, to making his own bricks, and he's now investigating metal smelting. No music or voiceover. Turn subtitles on to see text commentary of what he's doing. Ashens. Bloke buys cheap tat from Poundland or local markets. Shows it off for your amusement. Ocassional crap food episodes. Outstanding. RMC - The Cave. Retro computer gaming. Restorations of old systems from the 70s and 80s. History of gaming studios and product manufacturers. Even built a museum. Time Team Official. Same people that made the much beloved and previously cancelled show on Channel 4. Making it themselves now, funded directly by their viewers.

Rick is great the way he breaks down songs into the chords patterns. He is really honest about music, he hates artificial voice tuning and that's to be applauded. His interviews are spot on and he gets good musicians to do them with. He does go on about the Beato Book and his Ear Training course an awfy lot though 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All roads lead to Gorgie Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Does anyone watch the Sherpa the dog channel. It's funny and light hearted and the guy Jamie travels around the UK in his red van from his place in Cornwall a lot. The Huskymute dog ,Sherpa, is quite a character to say the least and the captions as he uses his voice are really funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched him go from nobody to millionaire and now does stand up comedy across the US among many other projects. The thing about him is he's always been this really sound, humble, kind hearted, positive guy who does loads to help people as well. One of the good ones. One from back in the day, how he got started. And him now...... I watched James Rolfe and he had a similar sort of journey. Think he had the occasional crossover with the above. Think he's got a bit tired now with AVGN but I stay subscribed just as a salute to someone I enjoyed as a teenager and into my early 20s!

Monopoly was originally The Landlord's Game, and had 2 sets of rules. One was where wealth was shared when it was gained and the other more akin to what we know. It was meant to prove that allowing individuals to build up a monopoly was a bad thing that centralised power and that cooperation was the way forward. We just like rampant capitalism better though.
