^^ Nice. That's like a box of assorted History-flavored chocolates.
And I can't believe I forgot to post Tales From The Pub. These are from Larry Blamire, the genius behind such classics as The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, The Lost Skeleton Returns Again, Dark and Stormy Night, and Trail of the Screaming Forehead.
My favorite Tales From The Pub is "Puppet For Your Thoughts."

For some analysis of (mostly) classic films there's CinemaCities, with my personal recommendations of one on the dark side of nostalgia and a tragic one on Gail Russell and The Uninvited.

^^ That looks like a good one. Lots of Horror and Hitchcock.
I also meant to post The Why Files. It's a nice mix of credulity, skepticism, and humor. And the fish cracks me up.

Two lawyer channels I follow:
Lehto's Law
The Civil Rights Lawyer <-- He ends every video with a scene of himself smoking a cigar and playing the banjo.

Maybe he'll do a video on "Ad Astra, Per Aspera."

Here is a fun channel on paleontology. I love this kid's excitement over ancient life forms. She is also the most tattooed paleontologist in the world... "that we know of."

Also, two more commentary channels that give me hope that the younger generation won't destroy Western Civilization within my lifetime.
