YouTube’s many sides
I’m always on the lookout for new inspiration. This just means I spend too much time on YouTube. I recently came across Evan Kale and without a doubt he is a creator everyone should follow. While searching for topics to write about I often end up surfing YouTube. That is one reason the current state of YouTube bothers me so much.
If you are a small channel you are going to be hard pressed to grow the way you would have just a few years ago. This effects viewers just as much as creators. Often you won’t even see small channels unless you spend a long time surfing the weird side of YouTube. That’s where I come in. If I’m going spend hours at a time i might as well spread the wealth when I find it.
Evan Kale
I’ll let his words tell you who he is. “I break stuff. All things Arduino, guitar, ukulele, MIDI, mods, music, explosions, and hacks (but not life hacks, because I suck at life).” His channel is a mix of solid engineering and comedy. If you are in the mood to laugh or want to learn something you can’t go wrong. I personally want to help his channel grow so he will post more often.
That is the downside. He only has about 50 videos on his whole channel. you will run out of content fast if you sit down and watch a few at a time.

This Is the sort of Mad Engineering that happens when you lose your mind and let your comments section design a project. What follows is comedy gold and a nightmare of earth shattering proportions. Please keep all your hands and arms inside the ride at all times, should you need to spew aim away from your keyboard. I am not responsible for any life altering changes brought on by viewing the following video.
Thoughts?
If you are still reading this, I’m not sorry. Ok maybe a little but you could have stopped watching at any time. Ok all jokes aside. This video is both insane and awesome. It’s not often you find a channel this entertaining. But what do you guys think? Are you going to give this guy a subscribe? Did I waste 10 minutes of your life? Let me know below.

Ok I had to throw this one in as well. I bought the Blipper from his etsy page and will soon be trying it out on videos I make. So, look forward to terrible content from me.
Ok no need to Riot I will stop posting YouTube videos for now. If you guys like this format where I find less well-known YouTube creators and Shine a light on their channels let me know and I will continue with something weekly or monthly.
A unique style for sure. And please do continue finding more unknown youtubers.
He is great in these videos. I had to watch them to the end.
Oh my the YouTube rabbit hole I will have fallen down when I get off of work. But your right there is learning happening and a whole lot of silly. Will definitely spend some time watching his videos.
Thanks
So Far The best article on this site. Period.
Nathan, I liked this article. You are definitely right though, YouTube has soooo much content that it’s hard to find those smaller gems. Thank you for sharing, and keep it up.
Nathan, We need to get him to make more videos! 😄
Nathan, I had to come back and tell you how much I enjoyed going through Evan’s videos. His love of both music and engineering remind me of my teenage son who has the same passions. I cannot stop watching Evan’s videos! I just wanted to let you know I really appreciate that you shared Evan with the rest of us! lol
