This guy has been doing a series (unfinished) about Hegel's Phenomenology of the Spirit. He explains each passage and it's easy enough that even I can understand it, with close to no philosophy background. This is the first vid in the series:

Will this thread include content about ecocriticism? It seems more awareness is needed.

Nice stuff. I'll keep checking them out.

I discovered Bob Ross quite recently, and before you say anything, he's almost unknown in my country.
I like his show, The Joy of painting, and that's what I watch on youtube, whenever I feel anxious. His voice is soothing and he gives out good life advice every now and then too.

Here's a PBS remix. You can find full episodes easily on youtube.. I believe all the seasons are up.
