He talks about every bits of lore in the universe of GuildWars. If you want to get some lore insight, watch his vids, their really good. The series in which he talks about lore is called Guild Wars 2 Daily

Yes, but pretty much every question i've had has been answered by him and he'll have new footage in like 4 days or so from the new BWE.

Personally, I got what I wanted lorewise from just reading the wiki entries for each of Prophecies, Factions, Nightfall, EotN in the "story" section.
On a tangent - is it narcissism that makes people do this stuff as videos?
I mean, everything from 'how to' to this sort of informational thing USED to just be text on a page (you know, non-linear, you could skip through the bits you didn't need, you could skim, etc.) and now it's more often a 'video commentary' or 'video tutorial' that is far less usable.-Styopa

Partially narcissism, partially money. You can earn money on adverts that youtube displays alongside your videos.

I haven't watched this yet, as I haven't had 90 minutes of uninterrupted time, but I am told that the 14th episode of Tales of Tyria podcast is WELL worth watching:
