The bastards at Google in terms of the data collection and monopolistic practices could be good. Doing it on their own platform (Youtube) mean it can be extra spicy.

Nintendo? They used to sell paper models and playing cards, very ordinary. Sanrio? They're so ubiquitous I think you could furnish an entire apartment with just licensed products.

How about the process of cocaine production from a purely industrial perspective? Like the history, production process, plantation management, etc.

How about large banking firms, like JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, or Wells Fargo? The video could cover one of the larger firms in specific, or the industry as a whole with some examples of "behind the curtain" funding projects.

Dungeons and dragons would be cool. From the early days of basement dwelling teens and their parents going through the satanic panic. The creator making jokes about how four sided dice would make good caltrops if your castle is ever raided (by the feds) To the modern era of inspiring hit Netflix shows and various animated projects. Might be an avenue to talk about the popularisation of geek chic in modern media and all that(bazinga). Also it's awesome to see your channel exploding. Most of the time I feel like there's less and less space for smaller creators on YouTube, so to witness your channel exploding for you is really inspiring and kind of heartwarming. You make and incredibly funny and interesting videos, and it's awesome to see them getting the recognition that they deserve. I hope that I can reach the same level of consistency in quality that you do with such regularity on your channel. Cheers to the gentlemen pirate, Ordinary Things.

Timex might be good. Their slogan "takes a licking and keeps on ticking" was preceded by "world's largest manufacturer of watches and mechanical time fuses." They made a lot of missile parts in the '50s and '60s. There's video of a live commercial where NBC's first news man, arguably the first anchorman in history and also Patrick Swayze's sixth cousin once removed, puts a Timex watch on a boat propeller to show it's durability and it vanishes entirely.

I know its been done but I love hearing about the early days of internet service provider muckery and how it has been implemented in different regions. Heck while your at it why not cover telecoms or broadcast radio and television? I would very much enjoy watching any of these topics covered by you specifically. As an IT teleworker your channel is much appreciated. (Btw IH sent me)

Can we get a video on canning? It seems ordinary enough, but a good amount of history!
