I have a series of custom videos made for me to remind me of things in the morning. I want to be able to schedule them to be played at the same time everyday. Is that possible? They are YouTube videos that are in a playlist. They're not hosted locally. They cannot be searched either . Can brain go directly to the URL to play it?

Sure. You can create a schedule task to open <url>.

1) Browse to the first video of your playlist in YouTube and copy the URL. For example, say https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOkQ4T5WO9E&list=PLMC9KNkIncKtPzgY-5rmhvj7fax8fdxoj&index=1

2) Go to any URL shortener services like https://goo.gl and get a shortened version of the long YouTube URL. In this case its https://goo.gl/f4KrxE

3) Enter following command in Braina: (Change URL and time according to your requirements)
Schedule task to open https://goo.gl/f4KrxE at 8 am. This will set an scheduled task for 8 am.

4) Enter following command:
Show all Scheduled Tasks. This will list your created scheduled task. Click on the update link. This will open "Edit Scheduled Task" dialogue.

5) Change Repeat option from "None" to "On Selected Days" and check all days. Click on OK button. Done.

Now, your playlist will be played automatically on specified time everyday.
