Emacs From Scratch (www.youtube.com)

I've always been curious about Emacs, but haven't been able to learn it.

This playlist looks promising, but ufff each video is like 1 hour and most of the video is just random chatting because it's a live stream...

Does anyone know any better video series? Something structured and to the point?

So while I almost exclusively use the command line, I do it all from within the Emacs GUI.

That's good to hear. Normally, I have a bunch of file and terminal buffers open in Vim and work across all of them—and stay in Vim the whole time. (Well, unless I need something like a browser.)

Sounds like this is definitely possible in Emacs. Good! I was scared for a moment because I thought I would have to... gasps alt-tab between Emacs and my terminal.
