Adam Duff [1]. He usually does videos on advice for artists, but most of the time the content is applicable to all types of professions. In particular I liked the one about procrastination [2]. And I skip his art-review videos.
They broadcast most top tournaments, often with ridiculously strong commentary teams.
The chess video I've enjoyed most is el Fo vs Eljanov[1] on chess24's spanish channel[0]. Exhilarating and so funny. Probably almost as enjoyable if you don't know any spanish.
Also I really love Ben Finegold's chess videos, especially from St Louis[2], educational, but it's mostly about the jokes.
Apart from that.. if you haven't seen Captain Disillusion (debunking fake videos), Every Frame a Painting (visual language of movies), and Vi Hart (art/maths/music/etc) - do yourself a favour!
