This video is a bit of a reflection piece. Someone recently asked me: If you could bring back any YouTuber—who would it be? That got me thinking about early YouTube, the creators that meant a lot to me, and the kind of content that used to feel… real.

I talk about Peter Oakley (geriatric1927) and Terry Roth (zipster08)—two creators from the early YouTube era who left a lasting impression. It’s not just about nostalgia—it’s about remembering the heart that used to be in online communities.

Who would you bring back? What do you miss most about the old days of YouTube?

Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear your picks.
