THREAD. Since everyone is inside and isolating and probably losing their minds with boredom I am going to do a thread of youtube channels I watch that are great for binging and should hopefully help you kill a lot of hours and make the boredom go away.
Abroad In Japan

I've watched Chris Broad for a long time, he travelled to Japan to teach English and now lives there and does tons of really interesting videos on Japanese life. His friend Natsuki is probably one of the funniest guys on youtube.

Alien Theory

I have binged this guys entire channel about 4 times. I'm a massive Alien fanboy and I am always watching videos on the lore and this guy is easily the most well researched guy on the Alien lore. On youtube he is THE Alien guy.

Alt Shift X

Another lore guy, but this time Game Of Thrones, he does comparisons between the books and the series and he takes the lore extremely deep, his videos are very well researched, impressive given the sheer scale of reading material involved.

Bald And Bankrupt

This guy travels everywhere, like everywhere, I have no idea how he affords it, but name a country and this guy has been there. He blogs about daily life and gives interesting explanations of the countries. Bit of a Mad Lad.

Fredrik Knudsen

Has a series called Down The Rabbit Hole, kind of like mad lads except it is more focused on strange internet events or internet deep lore, really well researched and interesting.

Grand Illusions

He's just an extremely pleasant old man with a huge collection of strange and unusual toys that he has collected from all over the world and does videos showing how they work. I have no idea why I like him so much, I just do.

Historia Civilis

The ancient Romans kept records of everything, from events, battles, political drama, everything, this guy researches these records and uses animations to act the battles and events out. Extremely fucking interesting, love his channel.

History Buffs

A great guy, takes movies about historical events and compares them to the actual historical record, if there are any falsehoods or things just made up for cinema, he tells you the actual events, plus a lot more information on the truths.

History Of Middle Earth

Very deep lore into the Lord Of The Rings universe. I don't really need to say much more, that stuff is always interesting to watch even if you aren't a fanboy.

youtube.com/channel/UCaA5X…
Leutin09

Does very long, very well researched deep dives into the lore behind the Warhammer 40k universe. I don't play Warhammer and was never really interested in it until I watched this guys videos.

Periodic Videos

You have all probably seen this guys face before. He and his university do videos explaining all of the elements of the periodic table and also experiments with them. Because science.

Primitive Technology

Guy goes into the wilderness and constructs hunter-gatherer era tools and dwellings, all by hand, using the original methods. Out of everyone on youtube, this guy works the hardest to make his videos.

youtube.com/channel/UCAL3J…
SteveMRE

You all love Steve. Guy opens military rations from all over the world, plus ones as far back as World War 1, and eats them. You might not find that interesting, but trust me it is. Also Steve is just so damn lovely.

VaatiVidya

Does a lot of content but the best stuff to binge is his Dark Souls stuff, he dives really deep into the lore and gives full explanations behind everything.

Vsauce

I know you all know who he is, but his Vsauce channel has an extreme amount of videos based on science, logic, interesting theories, all that good stuff. He has a huge back catalogue, it will literally take you days to watch it all.

youtube.com/user/Vsauce
I know a lot of you will already know these channels, but this is for the people who don't. I just wanted to list the best channels for binging that I watch so that people can pass the time easier in isolation and not get cabin fever.
