If you like to snack on short chess videos, I can recommend "Chessified" at YouTube.com. It features a large number of quick looks at opening lines, specific games, and challenges.
The Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) video touches upon only the first 6 moves, but is notable because of its assessment
In theory this gambit is awful but in practice it is really fun because White has so many interesting options.
This reminds me of FM William Graif's comment which I quoted in an earlier blog post named the same
The Jerome Gambit isn't an opening. It's a philosophy.
