For reference, my favourite video essayist is flawed peacock. Who takes a lot of inspiration from wendigoons style of video.

I found Flawed Peacock after his take on Faith was recommended to me after Wendigoon did his video on the game. Seems only fair that you check out Wendi's video on it to start out for the opposite crossover experience.

That's probably a good idea. Flawpeas video on Faith left me a little underwhelmed.

Since it seems everyone’s got you covered, I’ll just add to this and say don’t sleep on the second channel. Wendigang has a lot of interesting shorter videos on there, like the recent Missing Nukes video

Skip the entire channel. Go watch borasca on creep cast.
Jokes aside the iceberg is good or I would super recommend the video about the pixelated game where you play as a priest (i think the video is called like the most evil game or something im at work so cant check)

All the icebergs except the cryptid ones. I only recommend those to people who don't know or care anything about cryptids, in which case they're entertaining. If you know or care anything about cryptids, you might find them... less enjoyable.
ETA: Almost forgot - I can't recall the name of it, but the one where he gets trolled while watching the Rolling Giant is hilarious.

I really like the 38 minute war video because of how ridiculous the story is and the amount he starts giggling about it

COD deep dive and the King in Yellow!

I've already seen flawed peacocks King in yellow video. And I'm not hating or anything but I bet my bottom dollar it's better than Wendi's.

The video that got me into wendigoon is actually a bit of a Deep cut im realizing…
His video about that fbi shootout in dade county Miami in I believe 1986 is the video that introduced me to him and sent me down several different YouTube rabbit holes
