    Two lads who blew up over the last two years

    Bald and Bankrupt, most travel youtubers are crap, this guy is not

    Rate My Takeaway, basicallly Peter Kay reviewing Fast food joints.

    Also
    The Chieftain (and of this parish to boot)
    Mark Felton for Military History
    Triggernoemtry, the whole culture war area is a crowded field but these lads do great interviews and they're fairly amusing

    Whoever said Lindybeige can **** right off :) A spoofer that people think is credible because he has a posh british accent.

    I enjoyed the Triggernomerty guys until they claimed that "people had valid concerns about the 2020 election results." Obviously avoiding upsetting their Trumpista Patreon donors, which means that their opinions are effectively for sale, which makes them worthless.

    It depends what you like

    Matt D'Avella: Very popular, creates videos on productivity, life and minimalism.

    Nathaniel Drew: Kind of like Matt D'Avella but a little younger and living in Paris.


    I enjoy those two and listen to podcasts on similar topics.

    Another similar YouTube channel is Better Ideas

    That Chapter, one of my favorites, some very dark subject matter but with just enough wit so you won't be going to sleep with the light on.

    The Fall of Civilizations, he doesn't have many videos, but damn they're well made.

    Primitive Technology, just excellent, makes you want the world to end so you can laugh in everyones faces as you become the new God.

    Plenty of my favourites listed so far including The Lockpicking Lawyer, Simon Wilson, and Vagrant Holiday.

    Geowizard is probably my favourite at the noment but get to his Straight Line country challenges. He has tried to walk across Wales and Norway in real life without deviating from a straight line mapped out on Google Earth. Great entertainment through gardens, farms, rivers and anything along the way. He is close to releasing his attempt to cross Scotland.

    Spaghetti Road is another good travelling channel. Mostly through Eastern Europe.

    Beau Miles is an Australian professor and long distance athlete. Brilliant shots and probably the coolest guy in the world. His 1 mile every hour for 24 hours run around his farm was fantastic with him doing a list of chores in between runs.

    Ghost Town Living with Brent Underwood is a beautiful and entertaining channel. Man puts his life savings and invests in buying a deserted ghost town out in California near Death Valley. Has weekly uploads on his projects and renovations.

    Car Throttle has largely replaced the long missing entertainment that was to be got from the old Top Gear three of Clarkson, Hammond and May. London based group of 3 lads get into Cheap Car Challenges and modifying cars etc.

    Car Wizard alongside Hoovies Garage are pretty good. Car Wizard details the day to day activities in his massive Auto Mechanics shop specialising in exotics. Hoovie is his biggest customer on his own channel and often has videos titled Buying the cheapest car of its type for sale in America.

    Tom the Taxi Driver is one I've got into this week. Black cab driver from London, well presented and strangely interesting.

    Soft white underbelly - A documentary maker interviews homeless people, drug addicts, sex workers, pimps, gang members and destitute people living in areas like skid row LA

    Brilliant channel. The 'Inbred Family-The Whitakers' video is bone-chilling. Can't get this lady out of my head either. Brains to burn but she seems to be happy to live as a drug addict.

    Bald and Bankrupt is repetitive but still can be interesting. He wanders around old Soviet countries and towns filming his interactions. He's fluent enough in Russian too which gives a good insight into the everyday people.

    Enjoy his videos, but his collaborations with Harald Baldr (??), and Simon Wilson are very immature. Indigo Traveller goes to amazing locations, eg Honduras, Afghanistan & Venezuela.

    Post Apocalypic Inventor: German engineer who repairs old Soviet era German tools.

    SuperFastMatt: American guy who makes project cars and converts old cars to EVs

    Another vote for Itchy Boots. Lady travels the world, on her own and a dirt bike. Comes across as a genuine cool person.

    Discovered a guy called 'Raphael Treza' - have only.watched one video so far, about a Penan tribe in Borneo - documentaries about tribes & cultures. Really great footage, shows the different & incredible parts of the world our there and how out lives are so different.

    yeah Itchy boots is very good if you're into that sort of stuff

    Seen someone mention Bald and Bankrupt, then I read some history on the bloke ......can all be googled (lets say the tourism part isn't all he gets up to)

    Kurt Kaz does the same sort of content only way better

    Just searching out Itchy Boots...

    @KinoYves does something similar. I prefer travel video that involves food and mixing with the locals.

    Here he is in Nairobi, enjoying come Chinese food.

    Good channel alright. Brave enough to be motorcycling on your own in some parts of the world. Police officers were just fired in Nigeria for trying to extort money at a checkpoint on her stream apparently.
