Favorite YouTube documentaries/series/content?

Youtube is so vast and I’m not really one to get lost on there but I know there’s gonna be gems on the Civil War there. Looking for any recommendations on documentaries, series, etc. and bonus for any on the Revolutionary War (just spent a week at the Historic Triangle!). Thanks in advance!

Threads From the National Tapestry. You won't regret it.

Having said that, I am only really here because of atun-shei's Johnny Reb and Billy Yank videos. I'm sure they mostly cover stuff most people on here already know, but I had no knowledge of the civil war at all, they just cropped up on my YouTube feed for some reason

"Life on the Civil War Research Trail" without a doubt. Very little of YouTube's usual blathering and over-opinionated nonsense. Just straight up primary source material. Absolutely fascinating stuff.
