Worked with a guy once who went dressed in a big cardboard box covered in wrapping paper, with a big bow tied on the outside. There was a tag attached to the outside of the box. The tag read “To: Women, From: God”.
10 that I have enjoyed a lot:
Outer Wilds!
Echoing some other suggestions surely, but here are a few that I regularly come back to:
GAMING:
CallMeKevin (really funny, wholesome Irish guy known for playing games kinda hilariously incorrectly )
GameGrumps (two best friends playing games and riffing. Usually very funny and wildly inappropriate. Feels like gaming with high school buddies)
Outside Xbox/Outside Xtra (small team of British friends with lots of quirky, easily digestible “7 things” lists over the years)
Dungeon Dudes (pretty broad and approachable dives into all things D&D)
Smooth McGroove (older channel with many delightful a cappella renditions of video game songs)
COOKING:
Babish Culinary Universe (super approachable, funny, and well-edited cooking tutorials with fun themes and lots of room to be wrong)
How to Cook That (Ann Reardon is a super knowledgeable, friendly, crazy talented baker, and she does a lot of good work to address and debunk dangerous & stupid trends on social media)
Joshua Weissman (similar vibes to Babish, but a little more overtly comedic. Does great recreations of fast food classics)
SCIENCE & TECH:
Technology Connections (deep dives that make mundane things in our lives seem super fascinating)
OzTalksHw (very wholesome, budget-friendly PC builds with an emphasis on self care.)
ZeFrank (excellent, accurate, and very funny short nature documentaries)
NetworkChuck (friendly, well-edited tutorials on lots of IT-related things)
ENTERTAINMENT AND OTHER/MISC:
Kitboga (fairly wholesome considering the content area. He exposes and confronts phone scammers with hilarious made up character voices and fake websites & accounts, and he teaches people what to look out for in the process. Lots of swearing and shouting from scammers that he regularly pisses off by wasting their time and getting their accounts closed)
Watcher (Ryan and Shane do a lot of different interesting things, and their banter and chemistry are infinitely watchable. Puppet History is a particular favorite)
Digging the Greats (really cool deep dives into the makings, origins, and fun facts about all things hip hop)
Not in order:
