Harvard's CS50 is best of class. Created by David J. Malan. I've never seen an online course that has production quality or clarity of concepts as good as this. Even if you know how to code you may find a few useful bits in there and if nothing else you're learn excellent ways to explain programming concepts to people. They also make a new one every year, so maybe the 2020 or 2021 version is better.

Yale's Power and Politcs was created by Ian Shapiro is an excellent zoom out into global politics and how how the modern world was made.

Poker at Hopkins was an intersession course created by Avi Rubin, a poker enthusiast professor who collected resources over many years with the thought in the back of his mind "maybe one day I'll teach a course on poker somehow". It's very much an introduction but a good one.
