I never saw Weissman's supposed glory days, but I did hear people talk about him and checked him out and found him insufferable.

I also dropped Babish, I just got tired of the slop content and the overall drop in quality.

I genuinely think cooking channels have a finite lifespan, because theres only so much you can cook before your audience basically has all the cooking knowledge they need to do everything.

    Chef John from Foodwishes has basically kept the same style and Dad joke humour for ages and he is still pumping good stuff weekly

    I used to not be able to deal with Chef John's voice inflections, but after enough times, I started to find it soothing. Great, straightforward, no nonsense videos. I haven't tuned into him for a bit, not for any particular reason, but he is a classic.

    I used to watch Cowboy Kent Rollins a lot +2 years ago. Great cooking outdoors channel with a family vibe, and his dogs "helping" cooking, with a little bit of history thrown in. Then his content shifted to less of that and more long form podcasts, which I don't do on youtube cuz idgaf about everyone having a podcast now.

    Even professional chefs learn new recipes on a fairly frequent basis. You can't run out of content on a cooking channel.

    while there may be near infinite variety in the recipes themselves, theres only so many times you can sit down and watch someone make a soup, or a roast, or a casserole, or what have you, regardless if they have 30,000 different recipes for each.
