A Youtube channel could be made out of this idea: skill extraction*. For every field...

Akin a podcast/interview. Where the whole purpose is for the interviewee to share his tacit knowledge.

Experts go and are asked questions about specific situations. Said questions are made in such a way to tease out the tacit knowledge. (using the critical decision method)

... The more I think about it the more I want it to exist. Anyone knows of something similar? Or is interested to create it? or just interested to have it exist?

There's a lot of material like what you ask for audio engineering. In my experience, it is effective, but you have to have the deliberate practice hours in order to absorb the tacit knowledge. And you have to put in a LOT of hours seeing how someone works in order to catch the nuances that can't be verbalized.


^ I really wish this existed too. (Something akin to it does exist at least for certain niches, eg detailed web performance audits where the perf expert has an explicit emphasis on teaching the audience...)
