Quick Look: This channel claims to offer "thousands of videos from top web video producers in food, cooking, travel, business, design, sports and more." In reality, the number of videos appears to be in the hundreds, although I could never get a full count before the channel constantly crashes before I can browse the entire library (and I tried it a Roku 3 as well as an older Roku model). Also, the current content is almost exclusively about beer and cocktails, although there are a couple of exceptions - no travel, business, design, or sports to be found.
Following is a list of video series currently available in April 2015. If you get frustrated with this buggy Roku channel, you can find these videos on YouTube.
- Hanging With Harris
- Home Bar Basics with Dave Stolte
- Kathy Casey's Liquid Kitchen
- Pedal America
- Raising the Bar with Jamie Boudreau
- The Cocktail Spirit with Robert Hess
- The Morganthaler Method
- The Proper Pour with Charlotte Voisey
- Single MaltTv
- Common Man Cocktails
- The Process by the Skool
- Gastrolab
- Cheese Rules
- Served with a Twist by Bryce Chartwell
All of the videos I was able to sample started with a commercial, oftentimes a full minute in length, followed by a splash screen and sometimes still another ad.
An example video from this channel can be viewed below.
