Greetings all!

There are a few YouTube channels I watch on a regular basis that I’d put in the science/math bin. Here are a few examples:

NileRed Standup Maths Steve Mould AlphaPhoenix

I was wondering if anyone here had any recommendations for other science/math channels to follow or a resource that aggregates good channels. As a lay person, as in no college level education on these topics, I’m not sure I have the qualifications to determine if a channel is highly accurate or not. I think I’ve done a good job finding channels that are accurate but wanted to check in with folks that may be able to better determine that.

I’m particularly interested in astronomy, cosmology, and evolution.

    3blue1brown is phenomenal. It taught me how to understand a bunch of things better than studying them academically did.

    “Journey to the Microcosmos” is wonderful.

    ZeFrank has quite a lot of accurate biology if you want a humor channel in there.

    PBS Eons is great.

    I haven’t checked them out, but I feel like things like Nebula or CuriosityStream may be becoming better sources for this stuff than YouTube is. YouTube seems like it is becoming a chess, and I see no real reversal of that in the cards any time soon.

      Awesome, thanks for the recommendations!

      I’ll have to take a closer look at Nebula and CuriosityStream. I think they come up in ads enough that they wind up on my mental ad blocker so I’ve never looked closely at them :)
