Join us Thursday, July 12 at 7 p.m. ET for a LIVE webcam chat where we'll be asking audience members and Canadian YouTube celebrities to recommend their favourite web videos. (iStock) Do you have an all-time favourite web video? Something that you find yourself bringing up on your phone at parties, time and time again?
What would you watch on your iPad by the pool if you were to give your paperback a break for the day?
It's not an easy feat to accomplish, but working your way to bottom of a list always feels great - especially in the summertime when you can do it at the beach.
In this spirit, we decided to compile a list of our own for you to tackle this summer - a playlist, actually, that can be conquered in as little as one afternoon.
On July 12, we hosted a LIVE webcam chat to get your recommendations for CBC Community's ultimate summer YouTube playlist, drawing upon the expertise of Canadian internet celebrities and CBC audience members alike. You can watch a replay of the live chat below.
A big thanks to all of our audience members who weighed in, and to our celebrity guests Jus Reign, Chengman, RachhLoves and Sean Ward.
