After 1.5 years I’m following over 20 channels and a few podcast. I still get surprised like “oh that one is here too”. Though it really depends on your interest I wholeheartedly blame Nebula for creating new ones for me. I’ll mention my follows in no order. Also providing my own synopsis of these don’t hate me if I am wrong.

• I love the city! - The creator of not just bike is trying something more comical and short format. It’s new and still finding its stride I think but it’s worth checking out

• City Nerd - I’m new to this channel but I like the vibe.

• real science - neat animal facts

• realLifeLore - War Room - this one is a Nebula exclusive it pretty much summarizes the last month of every major global conflict. It’s terrifying but it helps in understanding just how bad things are and why they are happening

• TierZoo - if you ever saw the world as a video game this guy has all the stats on the animal world and provides detailed break downs of all of the builds.

• Practical Engineering - this one is a bit over my head but still very fascinating. The presenter breaks down engineering concepts very well.

• Archeology quest - this was a Nebula exclusive. It was awkwardly presented as a reality tv show. The 2 contestants learned a bit about early human history and should need to create tools, forage, “hunt”, to earn points. Though it’s an interesting concept It didn’t work for me. The learning parts were neat though.

• RM transit. - he’s recently announced that hell be ending the Channel. But I learned a surprising amount about my local transit system from this channel.

• Half as Interesting - one of the Wendover channels. short format interesting fact videos. Primary logistics I think

• The octopus Lady - neat facts about sea creatures, and marine biology.

• Polymatters - another geopolitical channel. This one typically looks at things from alternative angles then the other channels I watch and looks into prospective issues as well as current ones.

• Wendover - the main Wendover channel it’s like half as interesting but more serious in tone coving logistics issues and economics.

• becoming human - this one I loved. Another short Nebula exclusive focused on early human history but presented as a documentary.

• realLifeLore - the main channel of this creator as many of the other ones are exclusive to Nebula this is the stuff that isn’t I think. It’s the same topics as the other channels that focus on current or recent conflicts and geopolitical events.

• Liam Triforce - I’ll admit I haven’t watched a lot of his stuff yet, but he’s frequent collaborator of a streamer I like so I’ll get it someday.

• chubby emu - weird medical cases presented as dramatic reenactment. He doesn’t spare the science. My roommate has a shirt from this guy so a frequent watch here

• realLifeLore modern conflicts - I didn’t realise how many channels this guy had untill writing this. Anyway as the name implies it deep dives into modern conflicts. This one is also exclusive.

• Extra History - the series that actually got me to subscribe. I’d been following this channel for years back when it was just extraCredits. I really love their methods for teaching.

• ExtraMythology - same as above just with mythology.

• Stewart Hicks - you will never look at buildings the same again. He talks about architecture, but not just the engineering, he also talks about the history and artistic values behind things.

• Legal Eagle - sometimes I just need him to explain the law of the US too me so I can understand why it’s so insane down there. For Nebula viewer his videos will end with his personal thoughts on the topics so they are more valuable then the YouTube ones.

Podcast

• the urbanist agenda - it’s not just bikes, in podcast form.

• that’s absurd please elaborate - providing scientific answers to the questions you’d be too embarrassed to ask.

• it’s probably not aliens - as someone whose parents got really into that ancient aliens nonsense this is providing some balance to my life.
