Live sports and maybe some broadcast news is probably the only thing really keeping cable alive. Its slowly shifting as live sports is starting to get picked up by streamers. 4 Canuck games on Prime this season.

You can buy streaming packages for sports but at the prices they are very expensive.

TSN and TSN+ apps are awful. There’s some content, but it’s clear from the app design they are not investing much in streaming. Cable is obviously a much better revenue source for sports, even though almost everyone prefers streaming now. Hope there’s a change there soon.

^ they are.

The SportsNet app is decent though.

I wish some of the streamers would work together and offer some al a carte offerings. I would not object to paying $3 or $6 for the odd event here or there.

I agree with this, I find his videos amusing and informative.  You have to get past or used to his snarkiness a bit, but he is quite funny and sarcastic.  More Letterman than Leno, for sure.

I have been recently enjoying Chicago area YouTuber Alec Watson's often humorous and sometimes satirical channel on the history and evolution of technology such as telephony, TV, video recorders, dishwashers, and my personal favorite (because I touch upon it when teaching intro E&M), household wiring. Some of this stuff is new to me, but it's all new and informative to my students, who are currently trying to start an electronics club. For instance, his video “The US electrical system is not 120V” discusses split-phase household electrical supply, and other videos include presentations on contactors, GFCI, US household receptacle and plug designs (why those holes in the prongs, and why are Euro and British plugs and outlets so much safer) and orientations, and (probably our most unnecessarily dangerous household electrical items) extension cords. He also has a nice set of presentations discussing real-world refrigerators, AC,
