My favorite channel and creator for all things history.

I have followed Lindsay’s channel for years and gained a plethora of knowledge about history from the scandalous Royals of yesteryear to the modern day Royals.

She breaks down the lives of historical female figures with relatable, interesting, entertaining and educational content.

Join Ron and Justine as they “meander through 1820s Missouri”.

The couple, who are newlyweds expecting their first child, create content by reenacting a day in the life of 1820’s early Americans.

Everything is authentic in their cabin from the lack of running water to cooking over fire to their wardrobe.

Justine cooks meals from scratch based on classic and authentic 1800’s recipes (receipts) which provide great entertainment, a relaxing, peaceful space and entrancing sounds from crackling fires to chickens clucking.

Early American’s videos have even become a bonding activity to do with my daughters.

Their favorite is the Nun Bread.

“Two hours? TWO hours? TWO. HOURS?!”

A sister channel to the Early American is Ron and Justine’s channel Frontier Patriot.

In these videos, they “journey to the 18th & 19th centuries to bring light to the patriots on the American frontier. There will be cooking, traveling, shooting, skilled trades, hunting, work, horses, wagons, cannons, redcoats, rivermen, exploration, music and more!”

This channel has been a fun one to watch with my husband.

This is more of a sit down and chat style channel but equally as entertaining and educational.

Petal Palmer is a content creator I wanted to highlight for her interesting story telling abilities.

She discusses stories of true medical cases, crime and mysteries of history.

She is a I’m a pre-med student and cancer patient who hopes to raise awareness for the various stories of patients and healthcare workers that shaped the world today.

Her channel shares real stories and discuss the ethics of medical mysteries, true crime, malpractice, rare diagnoses and hospital horror from around the world.

Fundie Fridays creator Jen talk about different aspects of Christian fundamentalism, American conservative politics, pop culture and queer issues in a humorous and semi-educational way.

Along with her husband James who covers politics.

Their videos are educational, entertaining and amusing. They tend to say what we are all thinking.

They cover topics from TLC shows to problematic content creators to real world politics.

Swoop is an incredibly talented documentary and interview style creator. She covers topics from problematic content creators to True Crime and more.

She covers topics that require heavy research and immersion because like she says “It's not drama, it's dangerous.”

Her videos are enlightening, fact based, information heavy and entertaining as she occasionally takes us to “Petty University”.

Documentary and storytelling style content about powerful individuals from The Kardashians, to Woody Allen to Rosanne and the Duggars.

She dives into their back story, controversial rises to fame, scandals and what led them to becoming household names.

Her style is very information based with very little to none of her own personal opinions.

Her videos are entertaining looks into these controversial lives.

Fun, snarky, opinion based content presented by Kiki Chanel who has a humorous wit that makes learning about the insufferable lives of problematic content creators entertaining as well as informative.

I enjoy her somewhat dry sense of humor and her exhausted take on these worrisome content creators.

From breaking down family vloggers to life style creators. She highlights how troublesome this content and these creators with snark I can appreciate.
