At first I got taken in by Rick Beato. He is terrifically knowledgeable about music theory and plays a number of instruments well.

But it didn't take long to notice that his presentations of music theory are not done to help the listener understand music theory. They are done to show how terrifically smart Rick Beato is. I suspect a lot of his fans know enough music theory that they nod their heads at the parts they understand and it makes them feel good that they can follow. But it is terrible if you actually want to learn.

There are much better youtubers that present music theory that is conducive to learning.
