Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?
Not as frequent in posting as he used to be, but Todd in the Shadows is a pop music reviewer who also makes interesting videos talking about the careers and context of one hit wonders and career killing albums.
I’m surprised he hasn’t been mentioned yet. Haven’t seen another channel that presents medical cases in such a good pacing and storytelling while being able to eloquently explain complicated medical stuff such that everyone can understand.
I love his videos, they’re super educational while also being entertaining.
Redlettermedia for sure, they may as well be YouTube dinosaurs at this point, but their content has only gotten better. If you’re in the Lemmy minority like me and enjoy the NFL: ThatsGoodSports, Tom Grossi, UrinatingTree are all gems worthy of your time
RLM and tree are my jam.
Hell yeah, ONE OF ME! A fellow person of culture I see. I don’t know if you watch it, but GPS with Brandon Perna and Tom Grossi is like new/old Sportscenter for the NFL. They’re both buddies with Tree. Also, Brett Kollman is great for X’s and O’s type breakdowns, the man is a savant
I’m late but a couple I didn’t see mentioned:
BeardMeetsFood - funny guy doing eating challenges, never thought I could like this kind of content, and the only one I watch in this category
Itchy Boots - Amazing travel videos from a Dutch girl riding her motorcycle through remote places on all continents. Very positive meetings with people all over the earth to give you back hope for humanity.
Nikolai Schirmer - Ridiculously high quality alpine skiing videos, mostly from Norway. Fantastic story telling and nature combined with too steep skiing. Shouldn’t be possible to get this quality for free.
Expedition Evans - very enjoyable videos of sailboat life for a couple and their two dogs.
Beau Miles - best story teller I know of. Adventurer that mostly make videos about local projects where he’s doing something that involves running very long while philosophizing about interesting topics.
Harry Mack - the most insane freestyle rapper ever, usually makes content on the spot for people on the street or online.
Sheena Melwani - Whenever I need a laugh. Her husband Trid is hilarious. Short videos of them laughing and joking basically.
Iron Chef Dad - wholesome videos with his son, for example making gourmet out of fast food.
Galdoc’s Tutorials - great DevBlog content from making a Factorio mod. Development, debugging, designing, Blender. Fairly technical. Great voice.
Stuff Made Here - great engineering channel, makes crazy contraptions like a moving basket hoop you’ll always hit, a hair cutting robot, auto-aiming bow etc.
XboxAhoy (The channel name is just Ahoy)
Ahoy is still great, probably because it’s just 2 videos per year; Scott the Woz is still funny, Silvagunner too.
Adam Ragusea ftw and Kenji Lopez-Alt
There’s a good number of them, but the only one I haven’t seen mentioned in this list is Ordinary Things. Only a monthly video, but they’re good.
Andrew Camarata and Foresty Forest are one of the few no-bullshit YouTubers that I know of who simply focus on making good content and nothing else.
EDIT: Steve Wallis and post10 aswell
Andrew has had some low level videos, destroying cars or lawnmowers that go against his normal content that I recall weren’t well received. Otherwise, his stuff is very good and whenever a new video pops up I’ll reach for some cold beers and enjoy.
Yeah he has “Unlisted B videos” playlist also with a ton of lower grade content. He just loves filming stuff.

+1 for reviewbrah. His content has only gotten better over the years
internet shaquille
cooking videos
OMG, you just made my day! I watched Internet Shaquille years ago and really enjoyed him but never subscribed. Then I forgot his name and have tried many times to find him again using the few things I remembered from his videos. Never found him though. And now, you posted that little name and I instantly recognized it, thank you so much :D
I did a thing is fun.
timmm has very underrated video game reviews imo
Steve1989MRE, chill and informative seeing how MREs have evolved. He eats all the MREs and only got botulism twice so he’s doing good.
For funny content badlandschugs is pretty entertaining and the videos are generally quick.
