Tom Scott will post 26 more videos before taking a break after 10 years of weekly content.
I’ve loved his content for years now. He did say that he was just slowing down, not stopping and I fully support him prioritizing life.
Clearly we are all fans here, so I’ll ask what other channels people would recommend?
My top of head list includes: “Stuff Made Here” “CGPgrey” “AvE” “MinutePhysics”.
Technology Connections for that real deep dive into shit you never knew you wanted to know.
Practical Engineering, Real Engineering, Wendover, Climate Town, Kurzgesagt, Polymatter, Smarter Every Day, Veritasium, and The School of Life are a bunch of my favourites in the educational space.
I’d add Mark Rober, legal eagle, cinema therapy, half as interesting (also a Wendover productions), and Kyle hill
As long as we can all agree NOT Johny Harris. The guy tells an absolutely amazing story, but it is rarely factual. I believe he thinks he is correct, but he lacks a background in most things he touches, and consistently gets in wrong. Pick a subject you know a lot about and watch one of his videos to see what I mean.
For me, it was his video on Space Junk. There are also many other response videos to him. One I think is from an econ professor on Harris’ recent 4 econ videos.

Every Frame A Painting is one of those dead channels. But Every single one of their videos are masterpieces.
Jackie Chan, Robin Williams, and Buster Keaton are the cream of the crop though
It’s weird to see AvE recommended these days. I used to never miss a video, but unsubscribed over a year ago when the content felt like it fell off.
As for long form videos, I’d highly recommend Defunctland or Super Eye Patch Wolf.
Yeah, too bad about AvE. If you liked his old stuff, check out SuperfastMatt. Engineering of wild project cars, and the headaches of engineering wild project cars.
Unrelated to AvE, but also ZeFrank for well researched comedy nature videos
