I'll start out:
Bald And Bankrupt Benjamin Rich is a YouTuber, English Travel Vlogger And Author. He started his YouTube channel in June 2018, documenting the Indian subcontinent and post-Soviet states, he also toured Cuba and Russia.. he recently toured Syria...
Bald's real name is Benjamin Rich, his first wife was Russian so bald speaks Russian fluently, his new wife is Belarusian she speaks Russian, Spanish, and is able to communicate in many of the Slavic dialects.
He is known for wanting to show “the lives of real locals, away from the tourist sites, he dines on the local cuisine, drinks the local beer...He's extremely personable. He rates lodging and compares costs on his travels.
I've enjoyed many of his videos, his post soviet state tours in a way relate to what's happening in the Ukraine. Bald associates with all ages on his adventures but I've noticed in his conversation with old folks there seems to be a longing for a return to the Soviet days.
If your interested in what its really like in Russia or the Post Soviet Block States Bald and Bankrupt is an excellent source
Bald runs two channels on YouTube...

I listen to history documentaries while I sleep, just like back in highschool it puts me to sleep in about 5 mins.
Youtube is well worth the subscription price.

QUOTE black screen thunderstorm 
Another Tuber I follow...
Million Dollar Bogan, AKA Daniel Hays, Australian motovlogger
A little about Danny, he readily admits his troubled past, he's a high school dropout with and alcohol problem his younger brother dies from a heroin overdose. He had two failed marriages, Danny does AA turns his life around, he finds success as a Realtor, today he owns four separate sales offices in Australia with 30 employees.
Danny admits to depression, and his use of antidepressants, claims the only time he's really feeling good is on a motorcycle. I believe he's stuck in manic mode.
Danny travels with his sidekick David Perry or his girlfriend Veronica, sometimes solo.
Some of his adventures, Seattle non-stop on a Road King all the way through from Yukon to Dead horse, which is the most Northern part of Alaska you can go, well into the Arctic Circle.
He attempted to ride a stock 883 to Mount Everest from New Delhi, got lost deep in the Himalayas got close to the summit, He's also motovlogged all over Australia, deep into the desert on Harleys, all over New Zealand and extensively through South East Asia.
Danny has a good relationship with his local dealer Geelong Harley Davidson but because of some of his reviews he has drew Corporate Harley Davidson's ire..
Corporate Harley Davidson hiring Jason Momoa as a spokesman is ridiculous...they should be sponsoring people like Hays real riders not some Hollywood wannabe...
Daniel Hays has did more to prove the durability of the new Milwaukee 8 than any Iron Butt Rider.
Danny takes some a incredible drone footage.
He's currently in England on a 19 day adventure, he's rented a hard-tail Sportster/chopper I wouldn't ride across town...

I've spent a lot of times watching videos about guitar playing, electronics, crafting, photography, cooking, and baking over the last couple years.
It's taught me how to do things from building a 3D printer to baking pies. You can learn to do just about anything with youtube.

^^ I do the same, a procedure to fix or replace a part, diagnose an engine problem, saves a lot of money.

Shadetree Surgeon AKA Joshua Laurenti, American motovlogger..Josh is located in Ybor City Florida, he Manages the Dirty Shame Bar, Josh is a big boy 300lbs. a Millennial, his Video content contains too much jabber and drinking but he deserves the Iron Butt Rider Award..
One example of why Josh deserves this award, Corporate Harley Davidson invited Josh and a number of other motovloggers to California to test and review their Adventure Bike, The Pan America 1250.
When it's time to return to Florida Josh decides not to fly he rather ride, he buys an old Honda Silver Wing, I think these were 500cc the old CX style motor.
He doesn't even bother to check the oil he jumps on that 40 some year old Honda and heads to Florida. As a real testament to Honda Engineering that old bike hauled this 300 lbs. Man and his luggage back to Florida without a problem.
This is what Josh does, he'd love to have a new Harley but admits it's affordably is beyond his income. Josh proves time and time again you can find a decent motorcycle for 1500. or less.
Josh and some friends share a garage where Josh works on these old bikes bring them back to usable condition. Josh has a variety of old bikes in his personal collection he's constantly rotating.
Several years ago Josh became associated with Forgotten Angels. When a kid ages out of the Foster System at 18 they're essentially homeless on the streets, Some States are much more liberal and extend that age but then some put these kids on the street..
just a few stats...
70% of females who age out of foster care become pregnant by the age of 21.
60% of the males who age out have been convicted of a crime
Forgotten Angles gives these kids the skills and time they need, helps with jobs and getting on the right path...
Cindy Tilley, President and Founder of Forgotten Angles grew up in the Foster System, and knows how hard it can be, and how easy it is to lose your way.
Josh fixes up these motorcycles then raffles them at $25. a ticket, if you think that's just old junk Josh got a local dealer Burt's Black Widow Harley Davidson, who's donated new bikes, Even Corporate Harley and Ford jump on band wagon. example new Road King 131, Lower Rider S 131 those bikes have been Raffled, I believe Ford put up a Ranger Tremor, there's a guy that builds custom Triumphs he donated a bike...what I'm saying here you can get a chance at Motorcycle for $25. while donating to a worthwhile charity...
