I'm not sure that anything I'm hearing here would equate to the noise I hear in the original video I posted, but maybe that's all it takes?

Thanks as always for the help!
Looks and sounds to me like the first two you spun need replaced. The first one may be louder and definitely the one causing most of your noise, but the second one isn't far behind. When it spins freely like that, it means that the grease is gone. The third one is quiet, and quickly stops, which means it still has grease.
