Kind of tired watching trash from YT.

Edit: Thanks for all the replies. It's good to see that there are still gems in YouTube.

Tom Scott, he has done a video every week for like 10 years. Sort of a science travel adventure nerd. His videos are generally short and interesting.

Veritasum - Science guy with some interesting topics

Donut Media - If you like cars, they do some interesting and funny things while not being complete asshats.

The Proper People - Abandoned places, nice videos and respectful exploration.

Cash Jordan - Gives tours of NYC apartments from tiny studio apartments up to multi-million dollar penthouses.

Geography Geek - A lot of interesting geography-related facts.

Knob Feel - Short and sweet reviews of various knobs.

Vice Grip Garage - If you are interested in how old cars are repaired and have lots of time, he has many ~1.5 hour videos of dragging old cars out of the bushes that haven't ran for 20 years, getting them mostly running, and driving them home.

Polyphonic - Interesting video essays about various music and musical artists.

Tom Scott's videos are so interesting

Vice Grip Garage is excellent long-form car stuff for sure. Much easier to watch than the length of the video suggests.
