I give him all the props on keeping me engaged with nerdy science and space stuff after schooling. But damn does he come across as an asshat the last 10 years or so.
I much prefer the team on How the Universe Works to keep relatively up to date.
Does anyone have recommendations on bleeding edge science channels that respect my intelligence but can speak like I'm not a post grad astro physicist?
Here are some that I like on YT
PBS Space Time
PBS Eons
Fermilab
Anton Petrov
Fraser Cain
Sabine Hossenfelder (good, but often goes against mainstream science with mixed results)
I can't speak to Sabine's physics content but her social science oriented content is awful:
The capitalism video: short response, long react
The trans video: short response, long react
The neurodivergence video: very long response
Pbs eons is awesome.
He got really cocky and has a thick smog of arrogance now. I remember seeing his JRE interview years back and thinking the same thing. It was the first time I had listened to him speak in long form, and he just dominated the entire conversation in a way that left a bad taste in me mouth. That was right around the tipping point for JRE in general before the entire thing fell off.
Tyson appears to have let his ego inflate his head.
