Those are two of my favourites also. A good companion channel to Smarter Every Day would be the "Mark Rober" channel--he's the guy who invented the glitter bomb, used to deter porch pirates; but he also invents such things as a rocket-powered golf club, and a bowling ball that rolls a strike every time. He's shown up on Smarter Every Day a few times, which is how I found out about him.
Caitlin Doughty's "Ask a Mortician." It may sound morbid, but it's not. Doughty is a mortician who explains various aspects of her profession as well as death in general. While hardly a lighthearted channel, it answers the questions we all have, but are afraid to ask; and Doughty does so in a in a pleasant, unfrightening way. For those who aren't prepared to watch Doughty be embalmed (not for real, but the steps are gone through as if she was the corpse), she also has some interesting videos about historical aspects of death: interesting cemeteries, what happened to the Titanic victims recovered after the sinking, and other such.
Another is "Journeys," which is a series of travelogues that seem to be produced by the BBC. They fall into various categories: famous train journeys, the hidden history of Britain, and exploring Greek islands, are only a few.
Two more that are travel-related: "Wingin' It" with Paul Lucas, and the "Noel Phillips" channel. These guys concentrate on getting from A to B, without spending time on the destination. But that's okay, because they'll take the fanciest business classes on aircraft (showing what most of us could never afford to fly in), and travel in famous trains. They explain every aspect of their trip: boarding, what sleeper train cabins are like, amenities offered in first class, personal impressions of the trip, and so on.

^That's a really interesting channel, I ran across it a few years ago!
I recently found the Mütter Museum on youtube, and they feature Caitlin in some of their videos! They also have a segment with Mike Rowe. Plus they have virtual tours and all kinds of cool/creepy stuff to learn about.
Guess What's On The Curator's Desk With Mike Rowe Part 1
Danny Harmon aka "Distant Signal". Even if you are not into trains
you will probably enjoy his videos. Extremely well done and very
informative. One of my all time favorites on Youtube!
This may belong in the music forum, but it is YouTube so here goes. I think she is the next Lindsey Sterling. Good sweet wholesome family entertainment.
This is about a dive team that searches bodies of water, and began solving cold cases of people gone missing. They usually find vehicles submerged, along with what remains. Bringing closure to families.

AWP originally started diving as a way to clean up waterways, rivers, lakes and so forth (Link). They started looking for missing people after being asked at random by a family to search a river for their missing loved one, and AWP gave it a shot; they found his truck and solved that case. How cool is that? AWP has found 16 people in total since then. They also find a lot of stolen cars. AWP is able to do it based on donations to their channel - a positive side of the power of social media.
Another YouTuber did the same as AWP, recently solving the 21-year-old missing persons' case of Erin Foster and Jeremy Bechtel: link: https://youtu.be/AjL4TZse6hs
The tech involved that allows them to do this, plus what humans can do with genetic genealogy and other advancements in DNA technology, makes it quite a time to be alive for anyone interested in this type of stuff. Mind is blown how intelligent humans can be. I think we are just now entering a revolution, or Golden Era, for case-solving.
