 +I still use the old OPML RSS feed I made from my subscriptions to watch these. YouTube used to have a feature to get an OPML file of your subscriptions, and each channel also had automatically generated RSS feeds. It looks like this is now gone. See [[https://www.reddit.com/r/rss/comments/l3x6e8/youtube_subscriptions_opml_2021/]]. I used to use newsbeuter/newsboat with macros made to play the videos, but I have used a variety of other players. I also used Hooktube until that stopped working. I think Invidious community instances are still online, but have limited functionality.

 +**Documentaries**
 +  * The Nature of Things
 +    * This works over gem.cbc.ca and cbc.ca/player. The former used to be 1080p with surround sound at 6 Mbit/s DASH streams, whereas the latter was 720p HLS streams (muxed single stream vs separate audio/video for DASH). It looks like both are capped at 720p as of March 2022.
 +
 +**Podcasts**
 +  * Safety Third
 +  * Darknet Diaries
 +  * 99% Invisible
 +  * Hello Internet
 +  * WAN Show (do we count this as a podcast?)
 +All of these are available through RSS, and will work with akgregator, sharerss or mpd.
 +
 +**CBC**
 +  * CBC Radio 2
 +    * [[https://gist.github.com/nevillepark/0dc1d0809185d420fd4004d0783feb8d]] to open CBC Radio 1 and 2 streams from VLC player. These might be geo-restricted, they work fine in Toronto though for the legacy MP3 links. They used to be here [[https://www.cbc.ca/liveradio/snippets/menuAllStreams.html]] but it looks like that page doesn't have them anymore. You can add the first m3u file I linked to MPD though to add it as an internet radio station.
 +  * Quirks and Quarks (CBC)
 +    * I just use the RSS feed here [[https://www.cbc.ca/podcasting/includes/quirksaio.xml]]
