Michael Bordenaro is the main one, a vaguely libertarian guy who walks around Florida talking about the housing market bubble: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWSXBs8EzhQ

Since watching his videos I've started getting copycat channels popping up in my feed. They're all a white guy walking through a Floridian neighbourhood and describing the economy collapsing. If they're good like Michael they spend a fair portion of the video showing off the flora, which is the interesting part of Florida. This particular channel doesn't do extended shots of neat plants but we get some quality bad landscaping while learning about the condo market crisis. These are a great evolution of the white guy wearing sunglasses in his car and ranting about Obama genre.

Florida is super pretty. You should see the Everglades and Big Cypress National Preserve before they're gone.

I'm used to the mountains where everything struggles to survive in a low-density environment. Florida's swamps feel so alive compared to that. Half a dozen trophic levels stacked on top of each other in the same small space, each tree its own complex ecosystem. Then you get down to the lower Everglades and I've never seen anything like it, a literal sea of grass.

Once you get away from the strip malls and beach towns there is a lot of beautiful nature to see.
