Andrew Camerata - building a castle out of shipping containers, amongst other shenanigans, with excellent cinematography.
Vacuum Wars! He tests, reviews, and compares vacuum cleaners. And he's very thorough and scientific. His standard, but not only test is to measure sand by mass, put it in a carpet, run the vacuum in question over it, and weigh the remainder. That gives him a benchmark for all of the. He also does electric mops, carpet cleaners, air filters, robotic vacuums etc. If you are ever in the market for a new vacuum cleaner, check it out!

not fav, but deserving a mention is Sabine Hossenfelder she's certainly weighed in on topics she probably should've stayed out of. But her ability to cut through science/physics bs is pretty high. As with everyone, you have to take and leave certain perspectives they offer.

Many channels I watch have already been mentioned, but one comes to mind that hasnโt been: if you like Stuff Made Here and NileRed, youโll love The Thought Emporium. Dude is a mad scientist, for real. His current long term project is trying to make a neural net that can play DOOMโฆ except he means real neurons. Biological neurons grown in his self built lab, sourced from rats.

Outside of large channels with millions of subs that now only get thousands of views, Stumpt in general for clean fun and HeroVoltsy for their pokemon fangame/rom hack content. Voltsy's how I discovered almost every single pokemon fangame I have ever played.
theuppermostinlife - It's just one person scooping up all of the music they like and curating a bunch of compilations. I've found lots of music I listen to regularly thanks to their efforts.
