Everyone deserves a good study break every now and then. One of my favorite ways to unwind a bit after a particularly productive study sesh is watching YouTube videos – no, not cute animal compilations, (although those are great in their own respect). I’m thinking more along the lines of thoughtful videos made by knowledgeable and talented creators! Looking for some procrastination inspiration? Here are some of my favorite channels to get you started.

1. NerdWriter1

This dude explores topics ranging from comedy, music, film, and more!

2. A Chick Called Albert

When a guy bought quail eggs at the supermarket, he didn’t know it would lead to one of the cutest animal friendships ever.

3. Philip DeFranco

I’ve been watching Philly D for years – he provides the news in a fresh way, and always gets straight to the point.

4. Bad Lip Reading

You’ll never be able to look at some of your favorite tv shows and movies again.

5. Pony Makeup

She’s one of the most popular makeup artists in South Korea, and can literally transform herself into ANYONE.

6. Casually Explained

Don’t worry – he’ll explain everything.

7. Good Mythical Morning

Rhett and Link are actual best-friend goals, and boy, do they think of some bizarre video concepts.

8. Nerdy Nummies

*Grabs summer recipe “to-try” list*

9. Karina Garcia

Um, this girl just makes slime…so. I guess you’d call this the “weird part of YouTube”.
