Roku is one of a select few set-top boxes that has broken into the mainstream and found a home with tech savvy users and non-techies alike. It seems like many people only use the affordable streaming box for Netflix and YouTube videos, though. While Roku devices start at just $49.99 and can serve as great Netflix streamers, Roku is home to more than 2,000 different channels of content, and there is undoubtedly some buried treasure in there that you haven’t yet discovered.

You also might find some of the weirdest and craziest content you’ve ever seen on Roku.
