Another vote for Christopher Hitchens videos.
Craft tutorials
Jack Vale with The Pooter, especially the Farting in Walmart. I laugh so much, really carefree and silly laughing.

@Millie2013 Don't you think those kids need taking off them?? Poor things are herded around like cattle, have little to no belongings and their parents are so incredibly self serving it's heartbreaking.

@Foslady Do you not find Kate McCabe horribly 'Braggy' and a little odd for clearly being horrifically wealthy, yet spends every day rummaging through charity shops and pound shops?!

Love charity shops personally but I'm not horrifically wealthy!

I've deduced that she must just be horrendously right 🤷🏼‍♀️

RhythimIsRhythim · 24/12/2019 06:59

Old school ASMR, especially PigsBum53

First We Feast: Hot Ones People interviewed whilst eating increasing hot spicy chicken wings. The hotter the chillies get, the more interesting the answers and reactions.

Jimmy Somerville, old videos & TOTP performances and recent concerts. Man that guy can sing. And he just lights up when he sings. And real joy in his dancing too.

Have a soft spot for some Detroit techno too.

RhythimIsRhythim · 24/12/2019 07:00

And the occasional Jeffree Star make-up review. I‘m fascinated by his pale eyebrowless face.

Foslady · 24/12/2019 12:53

@Shesalittlemadam funnily enough I have gone off her recently. Fed up of her friend Louise (the stuff you talk about isn’t hilarious) and no - your dad isn’t as funny as he thinks......and yes we know you are in Thailand (hope your insurance isn’t voided now) and we know you are getting married BUT YOU CAN’T GET LEGALY MARRIED IN THE BACK GARDEN FFS!!!!
Definitely braggy now - and she’s gone down the ‘i was asked if I’d like......(insert random object)’ - no longer on my list to watch.

I should never have looked at this thread...

Spidey66 · 24/12/2019 15:11

I like adult colouring books and enjoy watching others with the same hobby show their new books or what they've coloured.

I also like funny ones eg animals and small kids.

Occasional documentaries.

I love Jimmy Sommerville, was listening to the Communards on my phone this morning. I grew up in the 80s when there was a lot of homophobia (usually disguised as a fear of catching HIV/AIDS) and he was one of the reasons why I've never had homophobic beliefs. Many of his Bronski Beat and Communards songs have a strong gay rights theme to them, while others like 'Never Can Say Goodbye', demonstrate a good song is a good song and doesn't need to be sung to the opposite sex. Love love love him.

EssentialHummus · 24/12/2019 15:21

Sandra Lee (and imitators).

The comedian Paul Smith - I don't even think he's that original a comedian, but there's something about his delivery, audience interaction and the regional slang he uses that just sets me off. I can watch him for hours.
