Must be mentioned of course. They have good entry level YT-videos on philosophy, art, psychology, etc. Very simplified and somewhat cult-like, but a good starting point nevertheless.

>Three Minute Philosophy
Funny Australian guy using MS paint to shittalk about philosophers general concepts.

>Power of Art
Know nothing about art? This documentary series is a well-made introductory course with some of the most famous artists. Make sure to check out the Bernini-episode in particular.

Remember, entry level means it can be pretty shitty but still serve as a good starting point, if only to get one interested in learning more.

Fuck Alain, any channel that tries to distill anything important into a 3 minute video.

Some of these concepts need at least an hour to explain properly, tease out subtleties, etc.

Figured it'd be easier to post in this thread rather than start another. Would anyone mind posting a book recommendation for an intro to philosophy or a Recommended reading order? I'm not sure if I should start with Greek philosophers or just dive into a topic of interest. Thanks a bunch in advance.

ask lit for their guide
dont listen when they tell you to start with greeks though, it's a meme only

Don't listen to this guy, start with the greeks like a civilized human being

The Trial of Socrates (Plato's dialogues Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Phaedo) is the best place to start IMO.
Unless you want to start with the Pre-Socratics, but most people don't enjoy them for being "wrong"
