Primitive Technology: https://www.youtube.com/@primitivetechnology9550

There are many copy-cats and fake click-bait channels out there now, but this guy pretty much invented the genre of "no talking, guy makes stuff with his bare hands from scratch" videos, and one of the few that's not complete bullshit.

Underdog Electronic Music School: https://www.youtube.com/@OscarUnderdog

Great advice on making electronic music, techno, etc.

Core Electronics: https://www.youtube.com/@Core-Electronics

They have great electronics/maker tutorials about Arduino, RasPi, etc. Adafruit is an obvious other source.

Jeff Geerling: https://www.youtube.com/@JeffGeerling

Great videos about RasPi, clusters, homelabs, Kubernetes and lots more.

"thatdudecancook" (terrible name, I know!) has shown me some amazingly simple techniques that have radically improved my cooking:

If you're into Chinese cooking, then the Chinese Cooking Demystified channel is excellent. This is not your lemon chicken from the mall food court… They deep-dive into all the regional cuisines and present non-mainland-China-friendly recipes and techniques. It's a real eye-opener.

For coffee, as others have said, James Hoffman, but also check out Lance Hendrick if you want crazy amounts of detail:

Aaron & Claire regularly produce ultra-simple, fast, imaginative Korean dishes.

Ann Reardon does some interesting baking-oriented stuff, but even better, her debunking videos are the real gold.

I'm getting into BBQ & smoking (bought a Kamado) and found SmokingDadBBQ informative.

For something really out-there, Wilderness Cooking (again, a terrible name) is intriguing. It's this guy living in what looks like a pretty remote village in Azerbaijan doing traditional outdoor feasts. Warning: not even remotely vegetarian-friendly.

+1 for Adam Regusea and J-Kenji Lopez-Alt.



Jeff Geerling is also the authority on Ansible.
