Edit: I’m basically looking for new topics to explore to add to my YouTube feed/subscriptions 😁
Edit2: Great recommendations. Thank you everyone
I like watching magicians do magic tricks while I drive, and trying to spot the technique.
I’m just kidding don’t do that
Holy shit this would have been an amazing line for Micheal Scott to say
Michael the Magic
I always have Lofi Girl playing quietly in the background when I’m working.
Valeur sûre
Might not be up your alley, but there’s a dude called “Just Background Noise” who does various Morrowind challenge runs. It’s neat stuff, but his name is quite accurate. Makes for some great background listening.
That would be my jam. Cheers
I like listening to a number of things, but watching things just slows me down.
My son loves the podcast Behind the Bastards. I like animal documentaries.
It’s a fantastic podcast! But I feel like it’s kinda too good to have it in the background
Northernlion/The Library of Letourneau, he plays videogames and just kinda does a stream of consciousness thing that often has nothing to do with the game itself. It’s entertaining and he has a nice voice.
+1 for NL and librarian’s cuts. Just got into him 2 months ago, super good for background stuff
Lately I’ve been going through my favorite artists and listening to their music in chronological order.
I hate the “pick something to listen to” phase of music listening, full albums let’s me control what im listening to while not needing me to maintain it.

I believe that’s the same source as Pluto tv, if not, Pluto tv also has those channels
we really need to set up a Discord server where people can live chat all the Pluto TV channels
Do you like silly stuff? I usually put on the YouTube channel Drawfee. A group of artists take ridiculous prompts and draw them on the fly, and the idea usually mutates mid-drawing based on their conversations.
Might not be great as you have to be able to look up from what you’re doing to see the drawings. I’m more of a multitasker so it works for me.
drawfee mentioned! I also watch Secret Sleepover Society, their game stream
Star Trek. All of it.
MST3K, especially some of the episodes I’m most familiar with.
That’s weird because ‘In the background while you do stuff’ is Golden Corral’s new slogan
LabPadre’s 24/7 stream of SpaceX in Boca Chica. Sometimes watching concrete dry or debris removal is just what I need to take a step back.
Josh Strife Hays. Absolutely whelming 2nd monitor content.
+1 for Josh, particularly the “was it good?” Series where he replays ancient titles start-to-finish while giving his thoughts about the game design.

i like listening to Lily Simpson videos when i’m doing chores and such. Her videos are often fairly long (meaning i don’t need to stop what i am doing to pick another video), easy to take in without having to actually watch with my eyeballs the whole time, and of consistently high quality.
Time Team on YouTube, but it’s an archeology show so you really have to like that topic.
