The Princess Bride is one of my favorite examples of this, especially because the "story within the story" is the main story, which is unusual.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the fake old movie that plays in Home Alone. "I'm gonna give you till the count of 10 to get your ugly yeller no good keester off my property before I pump your guts full of lead! One... Two... Ten!" 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
Angels with Dirty Souls
Image my disappointment upon becoming old enough to rent R-rated movies and finding out the only one I wanted was fictional.

Tales of the Black Freighter from the Watchmen comics is pretty awesome.
All My Circuits on Futurama is one of my favorites on tv. Dramatic beeping intensifies.
Ow! My balls! from Idiocracy
There's been some stuff coming out lately that makes me think this show isn't far off.
I keep waiting to see Ass. Anything that wins that many Oscars has got to be worth it.

Angels With Filthy Souls
The "adult" movie Kevin watches in Home Alone. Apparently the main dude who was supposed to be in those didn't show up so they just had some janitor or tech fill in and he went full ham on that shit and made it something to remember.
There's also the McBane movie in The Simpsons that shows up in multiple episodes and if you connected them all together they actually make a coherent story line (it's just riffing off Lethal Weapon anyway).

30 Rock has quite a few good ones:
- M.I.L.F Island
- Bitch Hunter
- TGS
- The satirized version of NBC in the show (lots of 'biting the hand' humor)
Can't forget The Rural Juror
Apparently I will forget you, Rural Juror. 😆 But I'm still glad I met you.
Weirdly (or not, perhaps) MILF Island was turned into a real show (sort of) not once but twice. On The Cougar a 40-year-old woman was seeking a partner among male contestants who were all in their 20s. On the rather more disturbing MILF Manor a group of women between the ages of 40-60 stay in a villa seeking to pair up with a pool of younger bachelors, which turns out to be made entirely of the women’s sons. Wikipedia says in season 2 the ex-husbands were also added to the dating pool so the sons had to compete against their dads for the divorced moms.

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
by Douglas Adams is a book about a book called "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
Wormhole X-Treme! from Stargate SG-1
In-universe, creating that show was a genius move, if anything legit leaked they can just say it's some fan fiction from the show and not from the real Stargate program.
Makes you wonder what the Stargate show was hiding :P
Well I grew up on a farm...
That's the Wizard of Oz.
You got that from "I grew up on a farm"?
If you're going to rip something off, choose something no-one knows.
Farscape flashback.
Gold.
"what do you mean it's not a real show? Does my agent know? I still get paid with real money though right?"
Interdimensional Cable from Rick and Morty is outrageous. GTA's radio stations (VCPR was the best) and TV shows are often really funny. The Pißwasser beer commercial from IV always gets me.

The "I'd buy that for a dollar!" guy from Robocop.
Ballfondlers from Rick and Morty
Impotent Rage from GTA V
The Silver Shroud from Fallout 4
As far as other media within Rick & Morty, the Second Life-like "Roy" is something that I wish could exist. Immersive gameplay, accelerated time, tangible experiences, and endless possibilities.

“Scary door” from Futurama
It’s a play on the twilight zone and it’s quite something.
“A casino where I’m always winning? This must be heaven!” “A casino where I always win… I must actually be… IN HELL!”
“No Mr. smith. You’re not in heaven or hell. You’re on an airplane!”
“Help! There’s a gremlin destroying the plane! You’ve gotta believe me!”
“Why should I believe you?! You’re Hitler!”
For those interested: The Scary Door

"The Wall" in Solar Opposites. It's arguably better than the main story.
The main story has really picked up since Dan Stevens took over the voice of Korvo. IMO, it was a huge improvement. Also, the wall story isn’t as compelling as it used to be.

All the ads in Robocop and Starship Troopers really
The book House of Leaves is presented as a documentary within a book within a book. Really fun read, too

If games count then all the radio stations in GTA
Mysterious Mysteries of Strange Mystery from Invader Zim
Come to Zim!
McBain in The Simpsons is a classic.
This video stitches the movie together somewhat.
Three Dog, the radio DJ for "Galaxy News Radio" within Fallout 3, was one of the best parts of the game.
The Fallout series has lots of other media within media too, like the Grognak the Barbarian comic series or Cat's Paw magazine.

The lore books in The Elder Scrolls series, hands-down.
There is an entire universe of conflicting knowledge, personal bias, and unreliable narrators that leave Tamriel's history feeling very real, and very open to interpretation. The fun of it is piecing together the truth somewhere in the middle. But I'll die on the hill that the Arcturian Heresy is absolute horseshit written by a madman, and comparable to the scribbles of a paranoid schizophrenic on an anti-vax forum. Anyone who references that volume in regards to Tiber Septim and the forming of the empire is an impressionable dweeb.
