Postmodern Jukebox (link)

They do covers of popular songs in a wide variety of styles that somehow consistently work just as well as the originals, if not better. Two of my favorites:

Frog Leap Studios (link)

They do metal covers of pop music. Doesn’t appear to have been super active recently, but there’s a nice back catalog of tracks to enjoy. Two of my favorites:

We used to be big on watching YouTube in the evenings, but now it's just kind of checking if there's anything new from:

Todd In The Shadows - music exploration into one hit wonders and bad records from typically good artists

Pat Finnerty - used to be a bit more structured around deep dives into bad songs, but now it's more freeform music discussion with a bit of audience interaction

Aside from that we just don't really pay attention to the channels we used to watch a lot.
