Binging With Babish has gotten me cooking more than at any other time in my life. And Primitive Technology is mesmerizing.

I run across 'Binging with babish' but word 'binging' always turned me off, so I would skip it. What got my wife and I to try some different cooking was chef John with foodwishes.com

Forgotten Weapons and InRangeTV, both for firearms stuff.

Seconded for Gun Jesus' channels.

But for those unfamiliar with Forgotten Weapons, it's not a rah-rah-fight-the-Man channel. It is a history channel that specialises in firearms. The episode about the OSS Liberator pistol would be a great starter, a mix of political and military history. Is it ethical to encourage an occupied people to try to shoot their occupiers with a flimsy, unreliable, inaccurate weapon?

AvE is great. His humor is a bit of an acquired taste, and not in a good way, but he’s definitely knowledgeable in a field I’m completely unfamiliar with. He does a lot of incredible tear downs and evaluations of power tools and other things like that with pretty stunning analysis. https://www.youtube.com/user/arduinoversusevil I cannot stress more, though, that his humor is an acquired taste. If his content and know…

It's not an "acquired taste"

Describe it accurately- Low-brow sexual humor that anyone in a position of authority would deem unwelcoming to women

How the hell do you have time to watch all that __regularly__ ?

I don't know about other people, but I have a home gym and catch up on my youtube watch later during workouts.

So that's about 4 hours of youtube a week.

"anyone in a position of authority". Hmmm. Let's bring him up on charges before the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal, eh?

AvE is great, and if you watch enough of his episodes you'll see that the old-school jokes are matched by an acceptance of all, save, perhaps, the terminally censorious. I'm looking forward to seeing him teach his daughter to weld.
