I never cared much for the word “vlog”, nor for personal vlogs themselves, that is until I started subscribing to a handful and watching them on a regular basis: ill Doctrine, Davey Wavey, The Fine Bros (Kids/Teens React), Wheezy Waiter, Charlie Is So Cool Like, and most recently My Drunk Kitchen by the incredible Harto.
