      I just had a look on their channel. I think my old classmates would cringe if they knew how excited i got seeing these thumbnails and titles.

      All my initial scientific inspiration have gotten sucked dry in the meat mill that is the education system, but living in the age of educational internet videos is big healer.

      I got vertasium and steve mould. Kurtzegesagt is mandatory for everyone by now i hope, i still follow Vsauce but i miss Michael. Got any other recommendations?

        Mathloger, numberphile, computerphile, Sixty symbols: more good math/computer science theory channels

        applied science, breaking taps: truly amazing “garage” engineering. They take on projects that you would normally expect to take a specialized lab.

        alpha phoenix: his expertise is in materials science but he does delve a bit into electromagnetic questions

        Mr P Solver: solving interesting problems computationally in pthyon

        Eevblog: good electrical engineering insights with a nice Australian accent

        Practical engineering: all the civil engineering questions you never knew you had

        Stuff made here: what happens if a robotics expert has a generous fun projects budget and never sleeps

        Tropical tidbits: discussion of the meteorology of tropical storms and hurricanes as they happen with none of the weather reporting sensationalism

        I’m sure I’m missing some, but that should be a big enough list to add many hours to your watch list.

        I have a physics degree, and 3 blue 1 brown’s latest videos on light are amazingly presented in comparison to the vast majority of lectures I’ve sat through. It makes me hopeful that online video sharing can help improve pedagogy and not just be clickbait nonsense.
