Flossy Carter is the single best tech YouTube reviewer with none of the fake bullshit.

He's all been keeping it real and posted a video 3 years ago which he reshared this week on how young PoC should deal with cops.



That's a really good and enlightening video but extremely saddening that you have to go through all these precautions to make a cop feel safe and not paranoid. Still though, they might just shoot anyway. Shouldn't be like this, where black people are thinking 'I am going to die' when they are pulled over.

Those asking why I didn't mention Woolie- I love Woolie, he's my favorite of the SBFs but dude gets tons of love on this forum, like every single day. He deserves it, he's awesome but I was trying to boost two content creators that I've never seen mentioned here (Rob/ComicsExplained and Marcus/CosmonautVarietyHour).

All the love for Woolie though, he's the man and he has great taste.

I've only watched Cosmo's video essays, didn't catch anything that felt off but I may have missed it. He's usually pretty progressive and thoughtful about his language and views. As far as I know, his most controversial moment was trashing the show Star Wars Rebels haha- which I haven't seen so I have no dog in that fight. He also got massively dogpiled on for poking fun at the Raimi Spider-man trilogy.

DoubleToasted...yeah.

Two years ago they would have been in my OP no question. I really love those guys, I like that Korey Coleman is incredibly talented as both a host and an artist. I admire Martin, I think he is as funny as he is wise and I fucking miss Girts and Korey Goodwin.

That said, Coleman has had more than a few moments that made me almost unsub. He's a very old-school "no jokes are off limits" guy, has had some awful takes about feminism and has made the occasional rape joke. It's extremely rare but it's often enough that it impacted how I feel about their channel overall. Martin is old school too but he's way better about that stuff (usually) and the Girts/Korey Goodwin combo were really good about calling Coleman on his shit whenever he got a little too "edgelord".

I still like them and I really enjoy their reviews, I just can't always fuck with Coleman's humor.
Coleman is definitely most prone to fucking up, and he's infinitely better when Martin is there to keep him in check. I don't follow everything they do, mostly just movie shit. But there are definitely times there when he comes out with a bad take and it's like "why are you dying on this hill, exactly?" I don't blame you at all.

I think with Cosmonaut, the "politics-free review" of Captain Marvel was a real fucking eye-roller. Not the review itself, but like advertising your video with that label just attracts (or even suggests) a form of criticism that is just so fucking weak. Like, adversely he then puts out a video about the Watchmen HBO show that says "hey, this shit always had a critical anti-conservative stance even if you were too dumb to notice." But like... why then try to divorce conversation from Captain Marvel? I mean I know the answer - it's that Marvel is going to attract a far bigger audience and thus invites the crazies to target you int he comics if you suggest too much of a slant in the conversation. It just feels really inconsistent.



While not Youtube, I'll suggest the Slashfilmcast, featuring David Chang and Devindra Hardawar as two of its three hosts. Despite maybe the most cringeworthy intro song in my podcast rotation, they generally feature some fun conversation about movies and have a good rotation of guest critics.

Also Friends at the Table, a tabletop RPG podcast series by Austin Walker of Waypoint/Vice Games with an explicitly leftist pov, and highlights some fun additional voices as they try different games.

Can someone recommend a channel with rpg walkthroughs with commentary?
Rabbit Plays, she mainly does Let's Plays of RPGs.

Lady Pelvic also has a good channel, mostly reviews.

Spawn On Me is a great gaming podcast.

JayShy, whose channel is called Shin Megami Talks, does a lot of collection/RPG videos.

Zaffre Revolution does a lot of RPG retrospectives

Blandrew doesn't post much content anymore but I liked his videos and his channel is worth checking out.

ShadowElite is a JRPG focused channel, the one negative is he is super into fanservice and kind of problematic that way. I avoid his content for that reason but if that's not an issue for you he's a popular black Youtuber.

Was going through the thread wondering why my man Andre was being disrespected by not being listed lol.

For me I'll add FredGotGame, he technically has a YouTube channel, but he primarily streams on Twitch. I came across his Twitch channel when he was streaming Rage 2 and been a Follower since.

Haha I didn't because he's been on Twitter asking people to stop shouting him out because he's already insanely popular and doesn't need the attention.

He asked people to boost black content creators that actually need the love.

I remembered him from a challenge series on his web site making a song in iambic pentameter almost 20 years ago, has been keeping up with interesting videos on music theory and production since then.

Edit: not so much in need of a signal boost since he's already pretty popular, sorry

I do love me some LIV. I also really enjoy Struggle Nation reaction videos to both movie and video game trailers. I think M-Dogg's energy and attitude are a great cipher for the way hype threads here play out. They're so good.

Love the commentary from the TLOU2 reveal trailer:



and their reaction to the BP teaser trailer always has me dyin'



Yeah I really enjoy struggle nation and have been a patreon member for a good while now. Day 1 we there.

FYI, as MKBHD has stated, make sure you actually want to engage with their content. If you randomly follow and don't watch their stuff you can bury their channels as their engagement levels will drop and will ruin the algorithm for them.

He's not very big, I think he just posts his streams and I think most viewers are his students

I could't finish one of his videos. It just came across very like alpha male toxic masculinity stuff. Then there was was a very borderline homophobic joke about strap on's and dudes being suspect and I noped out.

I found a lot of other great channels here though and thanks to everyone and I hope people continue to shed a light on great POC content creators.
