I barely watch normal telly any more. Once the kids are in bed, the TV goes straight to YouTube, and that’s me for the evening. It started with van builds while we were planning ours, and it’s spread from there into some fairly odd corners.
Van builds
When we were working out our own van, I watched every build I could find. How people did their beds, their electrics, their storage. Half of the ideas in our T6 came from someone else’s video, and I still watch them now even though ours is done. There’s always a better way to fit a fridge.
Men in sheds
Then there’s the building and fixing stuff. Wrecked cars brought back to life, inventions that have no business working, electric dirt bikes taken apart and put back together. It’s the same itch as the garage remodel and the home gym, just with someone else doing the hard bit.
The bodycam rabbit hole
Autoplay is responsible for this one. One bodycam breakdown leads to another, then a true crime deep dive, then it’s somehow one in the morning. The good channels explain what’s going on and why, which is what keeps me watching.
Football, obviously
Weekends mean Prem League reactions. Watching rival fans react after Arsenal win is one of life’s small pleasures. Watching them after we lose is character building.
Have a go
Use the remote above to surf through the genres, or let the picker choose something for tonight. Every channel links straight to YouTube. Don’t blame me when it’s 1am.
