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.

Kris Harbour Natural Building - Guy building a homestead in rural Wales. He does some cool hydropower stuff. Built his own house and workshop. Heβs currently building a timber framed barn of his own design for his equipment and the animals he raises using lumber he milled on a band saw mill that he also built (and I think also designed). This stuff is all documented on his channel. Dude seems really chill and down-to-earth.

Currently, Roll for Sandwich/Adventures in Aardia and No More Jockeys. Also love me some J. Kenji LΓ³pez-Alt, with a bit of Henry's Kitchen for contrast.
Many channels I watch have already been mentioned, but one comes to mind that hasnβt been: if you like Stuff Made Here and NileRed, youβll 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 DOOMβ¦ except he means real neurons. Biological neurons grown in his self built lab, sourced from rats.
Vampire Robot. Love me some B-roll.

Cutting Edge Engineering For those who love "Inheritance Machining" - Curtis does machining of large parts professionally and commercially.
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.
