Yeah I think it’s a quality channel but apparently there are just SO many people out there smarter than me that they are fine catering only to them. It sucks being left behind by a publicly funded channel :(
I’m actually thankful. It’s good to know a little about the bleeding edge of science, and there presumably are people who really do understand it. The fact that I don’t, means that there are smart, passionate people out there doing the work. Not every show needs to cater to the lowest common denominator.
For physics enthusiasts, I’d also suggest “floatheadphysics” for his depictions and sometimes cathartic presentation style. I love how he broke down special relativity in an easily understood way.
Then I’ve also really been enjoying “For The Love of Physics” for his style of showing some of the math. His style is more of a classroom presentation, but in a way that reminds me of my most effective professors that made their lessons as easy to consume as mac and cheese.
I’m inclined to hit some online courses someday, too, but, for now, these have been great for conceptual stuff and my curiosity vs. time balance.
Shout out to PBS Space Time
I love watching Spacetime, but also feel like dum-dum-brain after watch. Me no think good enough to watch this show.

I feel like the more you watch the more watchable it is cause you get more and more context
They’re definitely building on each other, but they’re definitely ELIApplyingForMyDocotrate degree.
PBS Eons is also pretty good, if you’re into paleontology.
That shit’s my jam.
