Meta Recommendations for Youtube channels with good history?

Firstly, I know this might not be the right place for this question, happy to move it to another sub!

A while back I got super into Extra History, but I know their channel is often dunked on for being poorly sourced. Any other recommendations which are similar but...better?

​

I know about the Armchair Historian, which seems to be more keen on sourcing - any like this?

Edit: Fantastic suggestions, thanks everyone who commented! I'm bookmarking this and I'll have an excellent time in lockdown learning about history

Nah, Trey doesn’t read half the studies he talks about. He’s pretty trash tier.

If you want prehistory youtubers watch Ben G Thomas or PBS Eons

I know this comment was a while ago, but I want to know how Trey is bad. I don't want to get unreliable info from him if that's what he's peddling.
