Talmud Bavli
Rosh Hashana 20b
Rashi's explanation as explained by Ben Aryeh
Rashi's explanation is difficult to understand. His description seems to require a much greater distance between Israel and Babylon than actually is.
​
The Ben Aryeh explains that according to Rashi, the Gemara is only talking about a very specific situation.
Watch the video for the full explanation.

Rosh Hashana 20b
Baal Hameor's explanation
The Baal Hameor has a totally different take on the Gemara than Rashi.
I admit that I accidently inserted a drop of Rashi's explanation into this video.

Shabbat 98a
Gemara and Tosafot
This is a clear explanation of the back and forth of the Gemara's arguments and a juicy Tosafot, all augmented by beautiful pictures.

Talmud Bavli
Makkot
Tosafos Helper
This is a beautiful book my friend made. He goes through the entire Tractate of Makkos with the Tosafot and translates it to English and explains it.
​
Another nice feature of this book is that the Tosafots are color-coded, so you know when a question is being asked or answered.
​
The book is organized with the original Gemara in the beginning and the explanation is at the end.
