Want some recommends?

Type 56: The Story of China's Army - Dude tells the tale of the Chinese PLA and goes into detail about different aspects of the PLA, their doctrines, historical battles, weapons and such. It's a cool channel. I haven't seen a ton of the videos and he doesn't come off as an insufferable lib and I believe he speaks and reads Mandarin at a scholarly level, so he's referencing primary sources.

Voices of the Past - First hand accounts of really interesting historical events and aspects of historical life chosen and read by a real human being. This channel is honestly an absolute gem. The raw nature of some of the accounts of these events really make you feel connected to the people who lived at that time and experienced these things. The first hand accounts of the Mongol invasion are harrowing and I recommend finding that video and watching it first.

Told in Stone - Historical architectural content by a real human being. Pretty interesting and really solid "fall asleep to this" content.

The Modern Knight / Modern History - A channel of a guy just out there being a knight and teaching about knight shit in an academic but chill way. Dudes rock.

Esoterica - Dr Justin Sledge (yes, his real name) gives you in-depth looks at historical alchemy, cults, religions, and beliefs. The guy is actually a published PHD on the subject and yes, some of the videos on this channel make it into university classrooms. He's done cool shit like actually cook up alchemical recipes from ancient books he personally owns and drank them as well as gone in detail over the rituals real ancient practitioners of magic performed. If you are interested in the occult or ancient religion and ancient beliefs this channel is gold and Dr. Sledge is a really chill presenter.
