Recommend me some intellectually stimulating videos.

I relatively recently came across "The Why Files" Youtube channel. His videos are very entertaining and thought provoking (including his interaction with his goldfish "Hecklefish" !)
Two episodes that I particularly enjoyed below (there are many more):

Speaking of History

Here we have a debate on Greece vs Rome.

In the Greek corner, we have former British PM, Boris Johnson (This debate was a few years ago and well before Mr Johnson became PM). In the Roman corner, we have esteemed Roman historian Mary Beard.

Fantastic debate. I was actually surprised how well Mr Johnson performed against an expert in Roman history.

This popped up in my recommendations earlier, loved how he broke down how he revised and reiterated things along the way.

 
Ever heard of Grapefruit head? Very NSFW but one of the most hilarious on YouTube. The gawk gawk noises get me every time.

Joe Rogan's stuff is usually pretty good because he explores fringe science and history. He actually gives it airtime.

There is also the Why Files that explores conspiracies.

The problem is he also gives air time to pseudo science and conspiracy theories. You really have to be careful when listening and take everything with a grain of salt

Hey! Someone that likes CBN! It is actually pretty good.

The Penny Arcade forums hate it because they think John Cleese is a Nazi for not accepting wokeism.
