Stuart's Staff Pick
Latin/Swiss guitar brothers team up with Texas native Leon Bridges in Dallas for intercontinental good vibes.
Elaine's Staff Pick
What happens when you take on a big project, and it all falls apart? A great new video from Luke Korns about the pain of moving on.
Kyndal's Staff Pick
The video demonstrates how broken pieces aren’t hidden but highlighted with gold, turning “flaws” into something special. It’s not just a repair tutorial it represents resilience, healing, and growth, which makes it meaningful beyond just the craft itself.
Robyn's Staff Pick
No one's doing it like Ro. Her OCD and black magic camera against the world, and someone ‘ought to help the world cause she’s killing it.
Amanda's Staff Pick
Okay I knew Ghost Kitchens were a thing, but I didn’t realize just how many there actually were. Very interesting to see how this is all laid out and makes me never want to order from these apps again.
Ryan's Staff Pick
Almost every boy who grew up with YouTube in the 2010’s knows about the legendary Freddie W. This is a simple talking head video, but it’s also the return of Freddie Wong and Rocket Jump after 6 years of being gone!
Mary's Staff Pick
Celebrity Substitute has recently become one of my favorite YouTube channels. I love the unique concept, and in this video specifically, it was great to see Role Model’s personality and talents flourish while interacting with a classroom full of kids he was “teaching”.
