I abhor most videos on YouTube, starring ‘influencers’ who imagine they’re stars and mug for the camera, and many of them have a theme song, and “click to subscribe” and all that jazz. I’m a crusty old fart who prefers to learn stuff by READING, not watching videos.

But a friend sent me this, and it rocks.

I didn’t watch the video. I clicked play, and listened to it, and that’s what I recommend. The guy who’s talking doesn’t have a theme song, and does have something to say that’s worth being heard.

    Actually the end song is a bit of a theme of his. It’s public domain, but it’s been a part of the conclusion for so long now.

    The channel is awesome. So many have described the experience as “Oh, <topic>. I guess I can watch a bit about it, even though it seems boring.” 30 minutes or so later - “Wow, that was fascinating!”
