On Youtube, there are a multitude of new "hosts" like C.S. Lewis (a dead author), sitting at a desk and spewing almost legible gibberish (in an AI voice resembling their own) vaguely referring to their favorite topic. Also psychologists, historians, and more. I've started to look more and more for videos over three years old if I want a decent history program.

Some are hours long. More and more, every day.
