Frontroom Video Thread

Since this is the frontroom, and we have to be way more wholesome and family friendly than the Backroom Video Thread, so with that being said I'll get the ball rolling with a channel that I'm absolutely fascinated with. :grin2:

Channel is called SteveMRE1989 and our resident channel host is eating MRE's (Meal Ready to Eat), which are the standard rations of armies all around the world. While eating random MRE's from armies is not necessarily of great interest for many people, the way of his presenting and the random MRE's from 50+ years back are absolutely fascinating to watch. He ate hardtack (biscuits) from the Civil War and canned beef from 1899 so he's definitely something special.

Very popular on YouTube as well. :yes:

I've been really into artisan videos lately. Very soothing:

A little delving into the craziness that is eSports.

I like videos that put on display how New York accents manifest in POC.

I'm incredibly fascinated by old videos that now pop-up on YouTube due to artificial intelligence being able to correct them & upgrade them, even to color them in some cases. Deoldify it's called, you will find it popping up a lot on YouTube lately.

Old film reel upgraded to the digital age. Fascinating.

Petersen Museum of cars!

Fake meat is booming - here is a comparison.

This is fascinating - I love this channel as a general rule, but it actually taught me some important things about day to day cellphone usage. Physics and radio rocks.

I remember watching this in 2009. It's trending again these past few days.

Some more food shenanigans, because you're better off doing meal prep.

Driving shenanigans, very calm cruise with a 1993 MK 1 Golf. Tedward channel.

Slightly Arena, slightly Frontroom, very AC and great music.

It's unreal how much of a cultural impact San Andreas, a game from 2004, still has today. Legendary.

My favorite automobile YouTubers right now, these guys are something else.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJPnWt_5sMY

Hadn't seen those guys before, I'll have to have a watch. I'm more into classic cars so Jay Leno's car program on youtube is usually my hit. Do like 'Regular Car Reviews' too though sometimes the presenter gets a little too philosophical.

Edit: just watched Throttle House's episode on the Tesla Cybertruck. Good stuff, the pair are quite funny, thank you for the recommendation!

Love RCR as well, but right now, these two guys are top of my list. Particularly the fact that they work on all types of cars, and it's a down to earth vibe about it.

Have only recently found this channel: No Nonsense Know How: https://www.youtube.com/@NoNonsenseKnowHow

Really enjoying watching this guys drag these abandoned cars out of barns and fields and get the at least started up (usually). I'm fairly mechanically inclined and I've learned a lot of little tricks from his channel.

Do you by any chance remember Scrapheap, the challenge that usually aired on Discovery? Getting a rusted out junk, out of a junkyard, and making it race. I loved that show, so much fun!
