I still do Tank Museum, TooFatLardies, Wargames Illustrated, Pete the Wargamer for painting, Beasts of War (On Table Top), but I am also selective about which pieces I watch from each, otherwise it's too much of a time sink.

Yes, it has to be pretty darn interesting to get me to turn around from my painting to look at the laptop which is off to one side. What are some of your current favourite channels on YouTube?Jacksarge Paintinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09859137774361915594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6608241380873321857.post-56671699163132160282020-05-25T08:46:54.876+01:002020-05-25T08:46:54.876+01:00Sorry - PS - your painting is fantastic.

All too often it isn't. There is one particular very popular podcast that just grates on me for some reason, but it's principally the video stuff that is really poor quality. I'm not getting any younger, my time is limited, and a video requires me to put on my glasses, look away from my painting and focus on a screen. It better be worth it. Sadly, a lot of times it isn't. I've switched off so many YouTube videos after 3 minutes because it's all about the presenter and their verbal tics. No. It's about content. Content is king, and if you don't have that, then no amount of rehashed old jokes, or supposed 'banter' is going to keep my attention.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13866756432233805848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6608241380873321857.post-75510907536535163152020-05-25T08:21:36.800+01:002020-05-25T08:21:36.800+01:00I "listen" to a lot of YouTube videos an...I "listen" to a lot of YouTube videos and podcasts while I work, I don't mind a long ramble as long is it holds my interest. I've also made a few videos myself & apologise if they have been less than stellar.

Another pet peeve of mine, which could probably go under either your Point #1, or perhaps #2, is annoying mouth sounds: tsk'ing, ts'ing, and the like before every statement. DRIVES ME WILD!!!

Two Fat lardies have some good rules, but their video's aren't great to watchKhusruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03512587253133355625noreply@blogger.com
