I'm sure everyone here knows about AvE, but if you don't, now you do.
We are doing some home renovations, so I am watching a lot of This Old House, Matt Risinger, and NS Builders on YT.

I have several that I really like. Another thumbs up for Wendover Productions.
I'm at work and can't post links, but:
Channel Name: Tom Scott He does several series like: Amazing Places, Things You Might Not Know, and my favorite "Citation Needed" which is a game of Tom and his buds trying to guess/figure out obscure Wikipedia stories. It's hilarious!
Channel Name: Tucker Gott He is an avid paramotor flyer and recently vloged his participation in the Icarus Race which this year was from Polson, MT to Las Vegas, NV all by paramotor.
Channel Name: Sailing La Vagabonde An Australian couple's life aboard their sailboat, La Vagabond. Elayna is easy on the eyes.
Cannel Name: Sailing SV Delos Follows the travels of the Sailing Vessel Delos and crew.
Channel Name: Vintage Space Channel run by another easy on the eyes space nerd.
Channel Name: DIY Pete A guy in my back yard doing build projects like furniture and stuff.
Channel Name: RAN Sailing Swedish couple sailing around. Another easy on the eyes female...I think I'm starting to see a patern.
Channel Name: AvE Canadian who cusses a lot and takes tools apart.
Channel Name: Philip DeFranco A guy that seems to have his head screwed on good when it comes to news.
Channel Name: Alex French Guy Cooking Cooking channel by a Frenchman.
And of course PragerU and ReasonTV.

Channel: Primitive Technology Crazy Brit who goes to great lengths to replicate the design and manufacture of primitive technology. At first glance it seems trite but he does a great job editing and doesn't even speak during the videos.
Channel: Cody's Lab Cody originally started as a very lab based channel doing interesting Chemistry and Physics experiments. He now does more agricultural and "prepping lite" type of videos. Good, but not as good as it used to be.

I watched him for a bit until his politics started getting in the way.

I actually feel that he goes out of his way to be fair politically and calls out both sides for stupidity.

Chris Stuckmann for movie reviews. There are tons of movie review YT channels, and there's something for everyone. Personally, I like this guy because he seems like a down-home kid from Ohio that gets goofy on camera. Like a neighbor talking about movies. https://www.youtube.com/user/C...os?disable_polymer=1
Every Frame a Painting hasn't posted in a long long time, but his breakdowns of scenes and props and framing is pretty spectacular. I hope he gets more active again soon. https://www.youtube.com/user/e...os?disable_polymer=1
Prager U Dennis Prager's brainchild of explaining complex issues in short 5m videos, so as to make the arguments accessible. They're all worth watching, IMO, agree or not. https://www.youtube.com/user/P...os?disable_polymer=1
Scholagladiatoria is pretty neat regarding swordplay and fighting with edged weapons. I enjoy his explanation of how swords were used, and his movie/tv choreography breakdowns. https://www.youtube.com/user/s...os?disable_polymer=1
The Rubin Report is usually an objective interview with celebrities or newsmakers. Dave describes himself as a "classic liberal", more of a live and let live guy. Gay jew former leftist that's obviously becoming more and more libertarian. https://www.youtube.com/user/R...os?disable_polymer=1
Exploring the Unbeaten Path - I've always had a weird fascination to the "English Russia" website, but especially as it pertains to all things abandoned/crumbling Soviet. Someone here posted a link to some exploration these guys did, and I went and watched all of their videos soon after that. Pretty cool stuff from all over Europe. https://www.youtube.com/channe...os?disable_polymer=1

Sailing SV Delos. Very fun crew that has been sailing the world for years. They explore some very out of the way places.

I'm a big fan of Forgotten Weapons. Great quality, in-depth looks at various interesting firearms throughout history. He gets his hands on some really rare stuff, through his contacts with various high-end auction houses, museums, and research services.
He also has a website at http://www.forgottenweapons.com/, which has articles and other content, though he's been focusing almost exclusively on YouTube videos lately.
I also like Military History Visualized. It's a Austrian historian (though the videos are in English) who does a good job of breaking down various military history topics into smaller, easy to grasp chunks, highlighted with some basic visual references. He focuses primarily on WW2, but has videos covering a wide range of military history topics throughout history.
