Hmmmm, I can't really say I got much out of this. Sure I can follow the main lines of the defense, but I don't see why I am doing it. A lot of the explanations of where to move next after the book openings were a bit ambiguous. I suppose its simply a book opening explored, but usually when you look up these opening videos you want to see why you are doing it. I don't think I'd ever get to the end of a book line in a game. tuber123asd's comments a bit further on reinforce my point.

Hey! I'm playing a master tomorrow, he's gonna play white and I know he'll open b4 cuz he's an expert in Evan's gambit, I can't find any instructions on youtube for defending from this opening, anyone can help? a good link will do and be appreciated

From what I've seen involving unusual openings such as alekhine defence, hippo defence and a few variations of the caro-kann defence that I forget the names of, it's always the player who overstretches their pawns in the opening who pays for it in the middle game.
