The Armoured Skeptic's latest vid is pretty damn good. He takes on Frank Turek and his comedic skills are sharpening. Also his music doesn't suck.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I like The Armored Skeptic. I'm also subscribed to logicked, Martymer 81, Sargon of Akkad, Thunderf00t, and MundaneMatt in terms of "stance on position/argumentation/etc..." channels. I was subscribed to TheoreticalBullshit, but he's not uploaded for quite some time.
I don't enjoy The Amazing Atheist's videos, ever since he started posting (nearly exclusively) Drunken Peasants podcast excerpts, he's lost my interest. That's to say nothing of his lack of polite or even just subtly rude argumentation, which was/is his most common style. Plus, he and Call of Dusty don't make the kind of philosophical arguments against philosophers and "philosophers" that I like to see, they seem to just attack the low-level Christians who make really weak arguments.
As for general content on YT, I'm subscribed to the Vsauce channels, Sixty Symbols, Periodic Videos, and Veritasium for some more educational entertainment, as well as various knife makers's channels.

He seems like a nice guy and all but something about the way he comes off, he just seems to be laying out his dirty laundry in his videos way too much. He's just embarrassing, I dunno. I've only seen several of his videos.
Yeah I can't stand him. He seems like a pussy or something. I'm not quite sure what it is really...

A new Armoured Skeptic! A little warning, the lady he takes on is gonna get your blood boiling. Don't watch on an empty stomach.

Also, I need a little help with my netiquette. I didn't think this should get a whole new thread, but I'm also aware of necroposting. What's the right call here?

"The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions" - Leonardo da Vinci
"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)

I find the theist proselytizers more funny but sometimes our guys are good for a yuck or two. I just can't picture making a video to help spread my enlightened view to the world. Mostly I think my perspective is the best I can do, not something which should replace the attempts of others.

I used the watch the amazing atheist, I liked most of his stuff, but I started finding some of childish. As has been mentioned, his video about vegetarian/vegans was as about as stupid as could be. I'm a vegan, and crap like that isn't any better than what I used to get bullied with at school.
Cult of dusty I really like. Sure he can be real loud, but I still find him hilarious and thought provoking.
The Bible Reloaded is just awesome, it's a series of readings from the bible, thoroughly ridiculed to pieces. Plus they review other religious propaganda.
The atheist experience, and their other show the non prophets are probably my favourite. Incredible call in show for the first one, and guys sitting around just shredding religion on the second. Full of useful stuff for arguments, hilarious, and insightful for the theist point of view.
Jaclyn Glenn, Armoured Skeptic and Creationist Cat are all great.
Nonstampcollector is my favourite guy for cartoons of religious parody, I watch them over and over. So on the ball, yet hilarious. Similarly darkmatter2525 and there's a series at ebolaworld called totally messed up bible stories, I think that's right.
Probably forgotten a few, but I'd recommend checking them all out. Oh yeah. Steve Shives is great, he "reviews" apologetics books among other stuff.
