Other Weird youtube rabbit holes

The aptly named "Down the Rabbit Hole" YouTube series. My favourite is this one about TempleOS, a fascinating story of an intelligent man who sets about writing his own Operating System.
This Aussie uses a magnet to fish stuff out of dutch canals. He has a infectious personality and somehow manages to keep convincing himself that it's not all just garbage people tossed in.
My dad watches this dude religiously along with some English guys doing the same. Super wholesome stuff.
Not YouTube but I’ve started getting obsessed with a tabloid rabbit hole full of stuff like this.
Since I deleted Instagram off my phone I obviously immediately starting spending the exact same amount of time looking at equally brain dead bollox. The “Discover” function with google chrome is a good one. About 90% is vaguely interesting stuff related to whatever I’ve been googling recently. With some random clickbaity stuff thrown in. Probably because I’m a pervert I clicked on an article like the link above and now I see similar stuff all the time. Scroll down to the bottom and you can see a load of similar articles linked. Read them. I urge you.
It’s so weird. I can’t stop thinking about the poor bastard coming in to work every day to write them. Turning inane TikToks into salacious tabloid ‘content’. Description of video. Summary of comments. Clickbait headline. Rinse and repeat. They’re all exactly the same! Imagine if that was your job?! “What do you do in the office all day, dad?” Kill me now.
Although maybe they’re written by AI? Feck knows.

I have always been into construction, machining and woodworking but never really spent time watching it on youtube until the past year.
I'm also subscribed to this one. 
I'm pretty sure we all watch the same videos.
It does seem like a number of us have the same set of interests which is kind of strange since some are fairly peculiar.
Been obsessed with anything Space / Universe / Time / Quantum theory for months now and only getting more rabid in terms of consumption.
Channels like History of the Universe and SEA, I’m watching these things over and over. Incredible and mind blowing sh*t. And any podcasts with Sean Carroll about quantum theory, I’m all ears.
My brain is drinking it in right now.

Just found this guy from a post on a reddit.
Lazily stumbled on videos by Peter Santenello. Visits various places and digs into the culture speaking to locals etc. This sort of things been done loads before but these are all pretty easy viewing and he doesn’t appear to come from any angle.
He is, seems a really nice chap and it is refreshing that he says very little himself, it’s all about the people he meets and the place.
These things give me stupid ideas

He does seem a nice guy actually. Even when he does the gang stuff in LA he is very respectful of the life they lead. He doesn’t judge and seems to want to learn about people from all walks of life.
Wonderhussy is really good if you are into ghost towns and other weird stuff around California/Nevada. Former Vegas showgirl and model who goes to some right weird places but generally it is very good.

Yes dude, not an ounce of judgment and so respectful. I’ve watched loads of them now and not seen one instance where he’s said anything contentious.
Except he asked one question to an LA gang member and got told to ‘stay in yo lane’ (I had to google what that meant) and he dealt with that really well.
Will check it out.
That videooooor has maybe cured me of my constant lust for five guys!
Never underestimate the beard.
No idea how I ended up here but drummers improvising to mediocre rock songs they’ve never heard before is my new jam.
Feckin hell. It took me 5 years to find this gem. Genius. Sheer genius.
I was also watching this channel this evening
wtf?
They're watching us
I’ve watched 3 videos of people removing supporting walls. This is despite knowing I’m way too much of a coward to attempt something like that myself….but I’ve still watched various videos in it
Loved that, now I’m off to watch more
That is so cool.
That was recommended to me too yesterday by YouTube
Interesting. They must be paying a pretty fee to bump it to the top of so many algorithms. Looks like it's basically an ad for some drum tuition software.
The recent Chad Smith one is insane.
Larnell Lewis has some pretty good ones, I believe.
