I try to be careful and selective of the channels I watch ... especially when it comes to research, history and documentaries ... I prefer actual presenters or at least their voice overs and a description of who they are, what they've done and a bit of info of who they are (so that I can go on to research and verify for myself who they are) ... if I can't place a name or identity to them or their background, then I usually don't watch them.

I've gone away from most modern Egyptology channels because they so very often drift into either the super natural, the unbelievable or just outright conspiracy theory territories.

I like watching nonsense stuff like restoration videos .... they're not hard to watch ... but I do watch out for the new generation of content creators like the Asian ones who dump a sewing machine in the mud for a month and miraculously find it in a swamp and bring it back to new

For the past few months I've been slowly going through 'Fall of Civilizations' .... a well researched channel with a presenter I trust and the content is well versed and full of details I've never heard or read before ... it feels like an academic lecture with the most inspiring, entertaining and concise speaker you can find. I find this type of channel very relaxing.
