I rather listen to San Marino's Eurovision entry from last year:
Although his voice is a bit similar to the guy in your vid.

Greetings from Wageningen...
Very historically important city...
I was dreading this years Liberation day crowds, now not so much because the festivities will most likely be scaled back or even canceled...
We also have a University...
I was born in the shadow of a windmill and i work at a cheese-processing plant...
Less and less WWII veterans, they still love coming here though...

Ah, a thread for Nederlanders! I was born in Canada, but my parents were from Roermond. My entire extended family still lives in Nederland, in Tilburg, Delft, Utrecht, Roermond, Venlo, and Nijmegen. When I was very young we lived in a village close to Hilversum, but we moved back to Canada when I was 5. Dutch is technically my mother tongue but I now speak it with a Canadian accent. I last lived in Nederland in 1974, and my vocabulary is still at Fabeltjeskrant level. My dad worked for C&A, which is about as Nederlands as you can get. 
Musts for me when I pop over for a visit (I live in England) are friet met kroketjes, Limburgse vlaai, katte dropjes, Chocomel, and bokkepootjes.

Is C&A a Dutch company? I had no idea!
Is there some childrens' programme in Dutch, like our "Sendung mit der Maus"? I read Dutch rather fluently but since I lack contact with native speakers I speak only little and am often uncertain as to how to pronounce certain words. Childrens' programmes tend to use a simpler language - ideal for beginners.

Mary Ann mentioned the Fabeltjeskrant, a childhood favourite of mine:
The language might be a bit oldfashioned...

btw, I just heard in the news that youtube and a few other streaming services cut down the data rate a little because atm so many people are online in Europe.

Another favourite from my childhood: Bassie & Adriaan!
I was so afraid of the plaaggeest
^ I don't think I was born yet at that time.
But these three actors played in several other shows that I did watch. Aart Staartjes was in Sesame street and De film van Ome Willem.

I remember being absolutely stoned out of my tits in Amsterdam, so much so that I collapsed and was revived outside a bar in the Red Light District
I also remember being stoned out of my tits in a place called the Poodle Bar in Rotterdam
I also was very flattered to being hit upon by a woman of a certain age in Amsterdam, the day of the Gay Pride March, pity her husband was also there.
I think I've ticked all the cliché boxes here.
Holland is cool, I like Belgium as well.

You think?
How did you like Rotterdam? Tourists used to stay in Amsterdam mostly, but that has changed since Rotterdam is mentioned in all the hip traveling lists.
One of my childhood shows:
Allebei leuk! We zijn blijkbaar allemaal oudjes.

Why would you visit Rotterdam? It had the worst soccor club, Feyenoord
