I bookmarked this a while ago, meaning to watch it all before recommending it here. I still haven’t watched it ALL, but I have watched certain segments, and it seems to be pretty solid and up to date as of end of BfA:

When listening to certain segments, I do feel like saying “But what about …?” but of course in such a whirlwind tour he has to stay at a very high level. It may be a very long video, but considering how much there is in WoW, it’s a very sgort introduction! If you want to find out more about a subject, you will find more detail about it on YouTube, on Wowhead.com, on Wowpedia.org or other common sites, or ask here!
