I have my favorites, and now I’m going to share them with you. This isn’t meant to be a compendium of great video blogs, but you’re more than welcome to share your own in the comments. I’m listing the top five I look forward to seeing the most. These are in no order, of course.

1. 1938 Media
My good friend Loren Feldman is a genius. I know he’ll get all annoyed at me for kissing his ass, but I’ve had a few chances to talk to him and the guy is just as funny in person as he is on the web. It’s comedy and commentary without a net. Loren is a true genius of his craft. He almost singlehandedly wrecked Shel Israel’s show on Fast Company.tv. That speaks volume for the sway he holds. Glad to consider the guy a friend.

A sample of one of his best below:

2. Mahalo Daily
Even though Veronica is gone, the idea of Mahalo Daily is one of the best I’ve ever seen. A general interest show (read: NOT TECH) that can entertain and inform you, and might give you an interesting piece of trivia or information you can happily use in your next bar bet. Count me in! They’re currently searching for a host to replace Veronica (as if that’s even possible), but I have complete faith Mahalo Daily will still be a great video podcast to continue watching.

Here’s one of Veronica’s best (and the one I find myself talking about most often):

3. Forkyou.tv
Scott and Marisa are geniuses. The food is always interesting and the instructions simple. Marisa knows her way around the kitchen and Scott is great at lightening the mood. The nice thing about these two is that they manage to keep the food down home and traditional, but often toss in a few upscale gourmet type recipes. I’ve learned everything from making some interesting Rissotto to some amazing macaroni and cheese.

One piece of advice, though. NEVER watch on an empty stomach!

My favorite episode ever:

4. Moblogic.tv
I can’t imagine what it must be like editing the footage of this show. Lindsay gets some true gems to answer her questions, and despite the volume of criticism I’ve heard leveled at this show, it’s quite entertaining and looks amazing in HD on the AppleTV.

A fave episode of mine:

5. Real World Green
With everyone telling you that you need to ditch your car, recycle your mother, and rid yourself of your horrible oppressive lifestyle, Real World Green is a bastion of common sense in an environmental frenzy that rarely contains any. It’s a must-watch for anyone who wants to do some real practical things to save the environment without committing to the craziness that often accompanies the green movement.

A great episode right here:

• Flash
• | Quicktime
• | iPod
• | Apple TV

As I said, this list isn’t exhaustive. It isn’t the greatest most comprehensive list ever. What it is, however, is a list of my favorites and the ones I look forward to the most. Like I said, if you think I missed any, share them in the comments. I’m always up for learning something new!
