When I was growing up, we had discovery channel. That sparked my intrinsic curiousity. My daughter has that intrinsic motivation as well, but only for k-pop now. She likes youtube videos and she likes when I tell her about science stuff. Maybe I can combine that by recommending her some good youtube channels.
God I can’t stand Veritasium. Even the name is so fucking pretentious. Dude is in deep love with himself, I can’t watch it. There’s just something about narcissists, I get an allergic reaction listening to them.
I can see that. I, like you, appreciate the content, but I have found myself watching fewer of his videos. I guess that’s also because he seems to be farming out his content production now. I like the self-produced stuff more than larger-scale productions.
Apparently the channel is owned by private equity now

I’m shocked I’m not alone, I was prepared to endure the downvote enema, good to know I’m not way off in my judgment at least.
Good news than, he recently made a video about stepping back a little and letting his colleages do more videos.
Just call him Dirk instead, he makes good videos.
Well, his name is Derek.
Yes yes I know, I like the content. I just can’t stand him as a person. That’s on me. I was brought up by narcissists so I have this spider sense about it and I get a visceral reaction.
