Ryan George: Best known for his Pitch Meeting videos, Ryan George’s main channel is equally hilarious.
Pitch Meeting: You’ve seen this channel before. Ryan George (of previous bullet fame) performs a movie studio executive conversation with himself. Always funny.
Channel Awesome: Doug Walker, aka the Angry Video Game Nerd of movies, has been around forever. Despite raging at some of his opinions (like his Karate Kid review), he usually has a solid take on films.

Space Ice: Comedy channel that mostly pokes fun at Steven Segal. I love this channel.
Mr Sunday Movies: These guys have been around forever now. They mostly talk about movies and TV shows.

Whang!: Whang talks about the internet’s craziest stories. His content reminds me of Martin Sargent’s work, like Infected.
The Why Files: Conspiracy theories in-depth. Talks about the story, who, why, and how the stories came to be. Each episode finishes with if it’s bullshit or not.

decoy: Dude in LA that talks about the trend his city is going in.

It’s A Gundam: This guy calls out the hypocrisy and absurdity in current pop culture, in a hilarious manner.

Nate From the Internet: Nate has been around for a while. Makes and tests stuff. It’s sorta an all-around maker channel.

Tommy G: Kinda like Hot Ones before it became mainstream and lame, Tommy G offers an unfiltered look behind the scenes, away from the influence of corporate bullshit.
PowerfulJRE: Everyone knows who Joe Rogan is. Anyone that doesn’t like him, hasn’t watched him.
Steven Bridges: A card counter that takes you along the life of beating the odds at casinos.
CartierFamily: Typically three guys that watch videos and comment on them. Mostly political and news-based.

TheWolfePit: I don’t know how this guy is still alive. He eats garbage food from the dollar store and reviews it.
