Content and Providers Worth Sharing(Not Political)

[Jerry_Atrick]

I thought I would start a thread of social media content and providers that is not political that are worth promoting.

 

First cab off the rank from me is Road Trucking Adventures. Great vids of a road train trucker and his travels. He is getting popular and now sadly does members only vids, but these are gems:

 

And he is obviously very respectful because he doesn't hold back the great Aussie salute.

I'm not a gun nut. I don't own a gun, and see no reason to do so. I do, however, like guns as examples of ingenuity of design. I cannot wait to get my daily dose of https://www.youtube.com/@ForgottenWeapons

 

The presenter is not some red-necked Second Amendment twit, but a person who has a deep love of the history of firearms. His access to many firearms museums and manufacturers worldwide is an indication of the esteem with which he is held in the field of firearms history. His presentations have a serious background, but are given with an air of a friendly chat. I have never heard him sprout any of that rabid Second Amendment stuff. At times he takes a firearm to a shooting range to demonstrate its action, and sometimes he will use a subject firearm in competitions. 

 

It is unfortunate that the rules for posting on YouTube prevent him from demonstrating firearms that can operate in fully automatic mode but, in his videos, that does not materially detract from what he is presenting.

Here is another from the fella above. His camera skills are getting much better, and the drone footage is amazing. I thinkt he drone shot chasing the kangaroos is stock footage, personally..

 

He also probably is using AI to generate the music, too.. Or maybe he has some ardent followers.

 

Although I am no s fan of the country genre ingeneral, I really enjoyed this one, albeit a bit of a schmulzy start:

 

And, although I know road trains and trucking in Aus, in general isn't all nice and easy and there are some shippy times, if I had fo seen these vids when I was younger, I may well have taken a totally difference occupational path.
