Shameless plug of my playlists:
-
Long video game essays (30min - 1h)
-
Longer video game essays (1h+)
Edit: Yes the playlists are very much still incomplete and a work in progress. I promise I’ll eventually add the recommendations yall made!

I only get sucked into these if I like the narrator’s style. Some people just have a natural way of talking that can keep my attention no matter what they’re talking about.

Missing all the mathematics channels smh. (Numberphile, mathologer, 3blue1brown)
I know several of those. One I don’t see listed is stuff made here. If you’re a fan of backyard scientist, you’re gonna love stuff made here.
Smarter everyday is really a special one. The way that guy involves his kids and his own boyish excitement when he finally gets an experiment right is downright heartwarming. Then there was the whole episode checking in on physics girl. He had no particular incentive to do that. He just really seems to care.
Based on the names I know on this list, I am super excited to check out the ones I don’t. Thanks!
Also check out miniminuteman too. Good pseudoscience/conspiracy theory debunking.
How you gonna have Wendover and not Half as Interesting (his shorter form side-channel)?
No Road Guy Rob? Or Practical Engineering?
No Extra History? (I only know him from Nebula but I think he’s on YouTube too)
Also recommend 8bit-Guy for retro computing and Modern Vintage Gamer for retro gaming.
Why are you teasing me like this? He didn’t upload anything.
If you want a rabbithole watch mort theory
holy shit thank you, i needed something to do nothing with my night
Also sponge bob skin theory. Dude had a little video putzing around, then a couple years later dropped a couple hour long video to convince people of some absolutely wild shit about sponge bob, then just disappeared.
Mort is the devil or whatever. Real shit
False alarm,hbomberguy did not publish recently
The real commitment is when somebody like Plainly Difficult uploads an annual omnibus of all their videos for the year. I watched them all individually, then I watch them again in 9 hour form.

It seems like I will only watch either a 15 min video or a 4 hour one. I just don’t seem to like the very short form video format. It does allow enough time for even a single subject.
With one exception, I’ll watch a lockpicking lawyer at any length.
Your playlists are missing all of Noah Caldwell-Gervais’ video’s.

Video essays somehow skip past my eternally short attention span
Only when they become a recap of the subject for 90% of it do I get annoyed, lol.
I’ve never even thought to look into JP lore. But this is my front page now

Bobby broccoli! So good
I have never played genshin impact and I object fundamentally to gatcha games. But I like video games a lot. Should I watch?
Definitely! I never played it too and the video was amazing!
Where’s pannenkoek2012’s Super Mario 64 invisible walls explanation video on your list?
Defunctland has some of the best researched stuff I’ve seen. His dive into the Disney Channel Theme is absolutely incredible.
But seriously it’s that Christian Bale?
is* that
