One I particularly enjoy is this one that follows the complete rebuild of a 100+ year old racing sailboat.
The guy ( Leo ) bought it for $1 and then started rebuilding it from the keel up in WA state.
I've been watching this for the past 3 years and it has been very interesting. He started out by himself with volunteers on someone's property. And over time built up an audience and with patreon has gotten to the point of being able to pay the people working for him and was forced by neighbors to move off the private property.
He tries to explain everything as he goes. Not everything goes well. They had a failed attempt at pouring a new Lead keel from the original lead and had to bring someone in who was very experienced to help them with the process. Even the processes they didn't do in house they cover like the bronze that was poured for the hull bracing, and the mast building operation.

Another one I enjoy is Super Fast Matt. He has built a speed vehicle for the salt flats, electrified a very old Jaguar, put a motorcycle engine in a tiny Honda, and is currently taking a Dodge Viper and building it into a 4x4 off roading vehicle.

I've also been getting back into videography a bit and started watching some of these videos.

Always nice to see real videography on a You Tube channel, instead of hand held phone video.

I enjoy Steve Guttenberg's "Audiophilliac", even though his tastes in music and in audio gear are, for the most part, 180 degrees out from mine. My favorite feature, by far, is the viewer systems. When he goes on and on about his favorite rock albums it gets a big yawn from me. But I do like his friend David Chesky's music, who was recently featured. He loves his horn speakers and flea powered tube amps. But you can't accuse him of a lack of enthusiasm or passion.

He shared a photo of my system on one of his episodes. Didn't use it as a piece for the video but did share a photo of it. Minute 26 of the below video.
AUDIOPHILIAC Viewers Have The BEST Systems!
I actually own his SME Model 15 Turntable he traded into SkyFi Audio.
Markus is 61 now and has decades of experience. He does explain very clearly how audio is a huge part of video and if something doesn't sound good, people won't care how good it looks. And then he focuses on lighting because good lighting is both necessary for things to look right and allows less expensive equipment to create quality video.
Past that he frequently compares equipment across a vast price range as an example from maybe $100-$4000 and he seems to enjoy showing were something very high priced doesn't perform as well as something less expensive or that has a glaring fault.
He's also frequently showing how something is arguably better on a spec sheet, but doesn't matter in reality. For example he doesn't shoot RAW and instead relies on the fact that he can properly expose his shots, and doesn't use a 32bit audio recorder because he knows how to properly level his audio. He explains how many things are crutches to help people recover from doing things wrong, but are completely unnecessary when you have good technique.
That said, he uses a very expensive mic and audio recorder while shooting many of his videos with a pair of Sony RX100 mk VI cameras.
Any DIY'er would love this genius girl mechanic. She has a huge following on Youtube. Whether it's repairing farm equipment, carpentry, welding, rebuilding diesel engines or rewiring electric motors; this girl does it all, and she's really cute too:

Wow, she's amazing! Wish I could do that.
After this girl gained such notoriety on Youtube, other hot Asian girls started posting their own repair videos, except wearing really skimpy shorts and flashing crotch shots. Just do a search for "genius girl mechanic" and check it out.... obviously, they figured out how to monetize their Youtubes!
