Even before we cut cable about five years ago, YouTube had already pretty much replaced regular TV for me. Factor in being able to choose which streaming services I subscribe to, and I haven’t once missed having cable. While YouTube itself isn’t a streaming service unless you count YouTube TV, YouTube has easily become my go-to for watching content.
Speaking of content, I wanted to talk about my top 5 favorite content creators on the platform just because I like them.
Jacob Geller

While I haven’t watched many of Jacob Geller’s videos, the ones I have watched have always given me a new perspective on things after the video ends. One of my absolute favorite videos of Geller’s is his Fear of Cold video, especially in the beginning where he talks about the scariest story he’s ever read. Jacob Geller is also a fan of both Alan Wake II and Disco Elysium, which is another reason why I like him.
He’s a fantastic essayist, and if you have half an hour or longer free, I highly suggest watching one of his videos!
Loading Ready Run

I’ve been a huge fan of Loading Ready Run for over a decade, and their content makes me laugh. They’re a Canadian-based comedy group that covers many aspects of nerd culture in their videos, such as Video Games, Magic: The Gathering, Anime, Warhammer, and many more things.
Their Friday Nights series is easily some of my favorite content they have produced, and I regularly re-watch it whenever I need a dopamine hit. One of their videos I highly recommend is The Minis, which is really good if you’re a fan of Warhammer.

Another essayist YouTuber that I enjoy watching is hbomberguy. The very first video of his I ever watched was his Roblox_Oof.mp3 video, and I’ve been a fan of his ever since. He’s an incredibly funny content creator who does his research whenever he makes a new video, which is why there are always decently long times between uploads.
His videos also do tend to be on the longer end with his most recent one titled Plagiarism and You(Tube) clocking in nine minutes shy of four hours. The next time you have an afternoon free, I highly suggest watching a video or two of his because they’re seriously good!
