Anything by Bryan Cantrill, which arguably isn't a "lecture" in the intended sense of the word (i.e. professor, college, university, etc), but it is one wild ride of a lecture nonetheless. An hour with Bryan will teach you more about computer history and system design than most anything else. I particularly like the monktoberfest series, and the Joyent years.

I don't know why, I've listened it through more than once and enjoyed it a lot.
Timothy Snyder: The Making of Modern Ukraine. [0] gives you invaluable understanding about much more than just Ukraine. MIT 16.885J Aircraft Systems Engineering, Fall 2005 [1] - the aircraft they focus on is the Space Shuttle. Amazingly demystifying. Some of the actual early designers talk there.

I second to this [0]. This was basically European history course from times of Vikings till present day.
Bill Shillito - Introduction to Higher Mathematics | Just the clarity of presentation and pacing. MIT Calculus Revisited - An almost perfect no nonsense presentation (I like black boards too) Francis Su - Real Analysis - Very engaging lecture style and great board work. Feynman Messenger Lectures - Well its Feynman, and the content is interesting if you are still somewhat new to it. Also StatQuest and Luis Serano for…
Washington Street Studios' pottery playlist. Taught me a ton about ceramics. Sadly the lecturer Phil Berneburg has since passed away, but it's more or less the equivalent of the theoretical side of an undergraduate degree in ceramics. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLS6Mrdpt53RyauAg8bGN-...
Not even a second of thought: Sussman's & Abelson's SICP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-J_xL4IGhJA&list=PLE18841CAB... especially the section on streams ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkGKLILLy0I&list=PLE18841CAB... ) It changed my outook on programming by pi degrees and I feel it is more needed then ever.
Sorry, can't resist: you probably mean pi radians (and by convention you don't even need the word radians). Pi degrees would imply your outlook barely changed at all.
Oh no... My read/watch list is gonna go through the room with this one. The one I've personally been enjoying very much is "Category Theory for programmers" by Bartosz Milewski: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbgaMIhjbmEnaH_LTkxLI...
The lectures are free and the course can also be taken as part of OMSCS.
Fantastic course really. It teaches something new and the theory behind it all is really interesting.
Other top-rated OMSCS courses such as CS6200 GIOS are really good as well.
The professor does an excellent job at explaining every detail, and the lectures end up being even fun. I've enjoyed this a lot.
