I watch a concernable amount of videos on YouTube so I thought I’d put my overtime to good use here.
These are some of my favorite channels that are all around 100k or less subscribers. Each cover a lot of cool and unique topics/niches and I’ve learned a lot from them.

Videos like this are a big reason why I started this blog. Everything about how it blends history, politics and unique connections to art, music, and video games in an open ended but also deeply personal way is so cool. And it’s all under 20 minutes.
A reminder to always interpret everything, it is that deep

I used to watch a lot of Contrapoints back in the day. This is like the zoomer version but in the best way.
