I've tested this now and this app is super easy to use:

YoutubeExtractor

Then what you can do is make a playlist and title it appropriately, such as Drug Policy - Decriminalize, then add suitable videos to it. Once you're done adding to the playlist, you browse to the URL that holds your playlist and open of Youtube Extractor. Paste the url into the field and export it as a text file. Then upload the text file to the Youtube Captions folder. The file you want will take on the name of the playlist.

Also, you can tell if they're autogenerate because if they are, when you turn them on, an overlay will display that says "English (auto generated). As Anna said, try to avoid these if possible, but if you think you have a really good video, put these in a separate playlist (no need to separate by sentiment, as someone will have to go through them manually anyways).

I'm creating collaborative playlists that people can directly add videos to. You can add to the playlists by following the appropriate links. Details in the /Youtube Caption Dump/instructions.md

I was thinking, this whole YouTube thing has REALLY opened up some doors. Basically, anything we can get a transcript of, we can use. Down the line this could include podcasts as we discussed, or even documentaries or episodes of tv shows. These might already be on youtube, or we might be able to get them directly online if they're more well known.
