YouTube Review: Geek & Sundry Vlogs

From the creators who brought you Table Top, comes a new channel for vloggers, Geek & Sundry Vlogs looking to share their passions and interests with you. There is a wide variety of shows that may be of interest to you. Here I will list my favorites and what they have to offer (In in particular order)

Kiriosity with Kiri Callaghan
   Kiri is random, but interesting touching on a range of topics that typically ties into fantasy, sci-fi, and history (all of which I love).

Retro Gaming with Scott Tumilty
   I was a big gamer back in the day, but sadly I no longer have a rig that can handle the newer games. This show is one big nostalgia trip into games I grew up playing and loving.

Not Really News

I grew up a tad bit strange (still am strange) in that I began watching news channels at a young age instead of cartoons. I began with Headline News, but after realizing that every half hour or so was repeated, I was not able to get the information I wanted. Eventually we got Fox News, and at the time I was still in the left-right paradigm of CNN was liberal, and Fox News was the only station telling the truth.

I watched Bill O'reilly, and later Glenn Beck, but it was during the time that Glenn Beck was on I began listening to Alex Jones. Like a man dying of thirst, I began to relearn economics, government, politics, entertainment, and especially history. One of the first things I heard Alex Jones said is "Don't believe me; look it up." And I did. Everything he was saying I would look up and it was all true. That was no so much surprising as it was surprising that I had not done what I had been taught in college. Since pretty much my first semester, I was taught that if I was to claim anything in a paper, I had to back it up with facts, source it, or cite it.
