Who do you follow on YouTube?

[dDave]

This counts as TV right? Youtube has channels and entire series now.

Been spending a lot of time on YouTube recently with all the coronavirus stuff forcing everyone to stay home.

My tastes generally revolve around nerdy/techy things.

Here's a list of my most frequented channels.

LinusTechTips (and most associated channels)
MyLifeInGaming (amazing retro game hardware channel)
Bitwit
PaulsHardware
StarWarsTheory (for, obvious reasons)
MrBeast (because who doesn't follow Mr Beast?)
PopMalt (because, of course I do)


Who do you follow? What are your tastes?

Tavarish
I've been following him since he was a writer on Jalopnik. I like how well thought out his articles were. I really like his sense of humor and taste in cars. The guy is clearly a hard worker.

Hoovie's Garage
I like Hoovie's silliness and self-awareness. His humor is more self-depreciating than Tavarish and he comes off more white collar to Tavarish's blue collar.

The Pat McAfee Show
The first podcast I've ever followed! Pat is my age, with my kind of personality. He speaks in a flow of consciousness style that I can relate to greatly. Plus he's a stoner and former "really really good" NFL punter.

Bright Sun Films
Everyone probably knows who these guys are. Urban explorers with a fantastic editing style, little to no slant to their views. I revel in the glee they show from exploring a particularly interesting stylish old power plant, sleeping on top of abandoned towers, or exploring theme parks in China.

This is Dan Bell
I like him because he's local to me. Dan is another "life commentator" that walks around and comments on dead and dying malls. He tends to explore things that aren't necessarily abandoned. I really enjoy his commentary and editing style.

The rest is a mix of random music concerts, sports highlights, and other urban explorers.

What is an “urban explorer”. That sounds fascinating.

It's someone who goes around exploring abandoned places. It's good stuff.

Very cool. I’ll have to check that out. Sounds like something I’d be interested in.
