What are you watching on Youtube right now?

JW77 · February 3

Mostly I watch music videos - I love a lot of different bands, Sabaton, Majestic, Tommy Johansson, Adrian Von Zeigler to name a few. Also satire and comedy. Some of the news rants too. Protest stuff like Dropkick Murphys - REAL news channels like Novarda Media etc.. Politics Joe, The Humanist Report.

Love the Everything Electric channel as well - up to date stuff on the latest tech as we fade away from burning stuff.

Also some reaction videos JJL reacts etc

I'm listening to some nice unintentional ASMR.

I've started watching BBC Archive documentaries. I just watched this one about a girls flatshare in London. Just a word of warning, the language they use to describe girls at the beginning is a bit un-PC!

Enjoy the rabbit hole that you're about to go down @Santosha12 😂 I've started a discussion that you might find interesting about how our homes have changed over the last century. I love learning about how different things used to be. I was born in the mid-80s so I was lucky to have a lot of technology to make my life easier.

Oh wow! Let me know if you find anything @Santosha12. I bought my mum a years subscription to Ancestry and it was really interesting to find our ancestors and build a family tree. I wish I could go back in time and ask them about their lives.

i am at home.. i am watching the unknown 1927 in you tube.. a silent film.. it is a very sad film.. but very very good if you get through the fact it is a silent film so dialogue only captions sometimes… i love silent films.. it was all in the performance and not the dialogue.

I'm going to put that on my watchlist @Schildpad. Any more silent film recommendations? My favourite is Metropolis (1927). Have you seen it?

Schildpad · February 26

i have seen metropolis yeah… another one is sunrise also from 1927 by murnau… a good director.. almost any film by fritz lang and murnau are good… buy also early films like seventh heaven 1937 by henry king with james stewart… early films were very good. capra s film it happened one night….. 1934 with clark gable. so many films… bicycle's thief.. if you do not mind to read subtitles and l'atalante by jean vigo. some bits will remind you of titanic the film. surely the director got inspiration from l'atalante.

Rachel_Scope · February 26

I don't mind subtitles at all @Schildpad. Thanks so much for the recommendations!

I've also recently got into watching a log fire while I do some puzzles or just relaxing. It makes me feel a bit warmer and I love the crackling sound. My YouTube recommendations are now full of different fireplaces 😆

Does anyone else watch anything similar? There are some nice rain ones too.

I like watching podcasts where intelligent hosts have conversations with experts on different topics. Alex O'Connor or Trevor Noah for example. Society, philosophy, psychology etc.

I got an alarm clock that wakes me up with sounds from sheep to trains passing thunders etc.. better than the old ways and way more relaxing. I can not wait for my sound bath tomorrow. It is so relaxing.

I am very sleepy today. I think it is an early bed for me.

Just been watching Temu Shopping Fails, some are really hilarious, others just don't bother reading first, still hilarious though. The first time I have laughed out loud, cried with laughter & had to go to the loo as laughing so much, in years!

Which has led to this, good ol karma! 😆🤣
