Here are all of Bo's favorite YouTube videos for posterity purposes.
Note: While YouTube says Bo chose 29 videos in total, only 24 are still available approximately 15 years later. Not too bad, all things considered!
1. Coffee Jerks (clips of men in ads telling their wives that they hate their coffee) https://youtu.be/VssO5bKFJU0
2. Radiohead live: Idioteque (Bo's favorite band AND the song has "everything all of the time" like WTTI) https://youtu.be/i8M-Moo4imQ
3. the twitter song! (self-promotion for an app he now despises lol) https://youtu.be/yO5vFJLc7M0
4. Meet Karl Pilkington (Bo was a huge fan of Ricky Gervais and The Office UK) https://youtu.be/NQBlZIXu3Yg

6. Who's on First? (Classic wordplay at its finest) https://youtu.be/sShMA85pv8M

11. Tom Lehrer - Wernher von Braun (famous musical comedian; likely inspired Bo's WTTI persona) https://youtu.be/QEJ9HrZq7Ro
12. Zach Galifianakis (Bo's favorite nihilistic comic telling jokes to kids...the chicken running gag makes me sad now after the Outtakes) https://youtu.be/x7ywNaGpqZw
