  • Solving Systems of Two Equations and Two Unknowns: Graphing, Substitution, and Elimination

    We know how to solve algebraic equations, but what about systems that contain two equations? Is there a solution that satisfies both equations? There might be! Let's go over a few different strategies to find this solution.

  • Steve Kirsch Strikes Back! (And Soils Himself)

    Remember Steve Kirsch, king douche of the anti-vaxxers? Dan Wilson and I humiliated him in a live debate in New York, and then I made follow-up videos on him and Pierre Kory to further expose their extreme fraudulence. When you're a lying piece of excrement who spreads anti-science propaganda that gets people killed, you really don't deserve any mercy. After several months of licking his wounds and crying, Steve finally decided to strike back. Brace yourself, it's pathetic. Let's knock him back down to the ground where he belongs, shall we?

  • Scalars, Vectors, and Vector Operations

    What are all these funny little arrows? They're vectors! And we will use them to represent every single force we discuss in physics, so we need to know how to draw them, add them, subtract them, split them up into X and Y components, the whole nine yards. We also need to know the difference between vectors and scalars. So let's get this stuff taken care of before we dive into the physics!

  • Introduction to the Middle Ages (500 - 1500 CE)

    With antiquity covered, it's time to start learning about the Middle Ages. This is the period starting roughly around 500 CE that lasted all the way until the Renaissance. What was happening at that time in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Mesoamerica? Let's outline this portion of the series so that you know what to expect!

  • Introduction to Classical Physics

    Physics is the grandaddy of the sciences! When those ancient dudes in togas were philosophizing about the way the universe works, they were setting the stage for what we now know of as physics, even though it didn't really get going until Galileo and Newton. Why should we study physics? What is the goal of physics? What do we mean when we refer to classical physics? Let's reflect together for a moment before we dive into this hefty subject, shall we?

  • The Great Big Pseudoarcheology Debunk (Graham Hancock, Dan Richards, Jimmy Corsetti)

    What is pseudoarcheology? Just as there is pseudoscience pertaining to physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine, there is pseudoscience that bastardizes archeology as well. Remember Ancient Aliens on the History Channel? We all used to make fun of that. But now, millions of people have fallen for this ridiculous trend, and they primarily worship a disgusting fraud named Graham Hancock, as well as a handful of copycat grifters, such as Dan Richards and Jimmy Corsetti, who are following in Graham's footsteps. What do these frauds say? How exactly do we know they're just lying frauds? Press play to get everything you're looking for and more!

  • Why You Should Never Say "It's Just A Theory"

    A portion of our culture distrusts the scientific method, assuming that there are transcendent truths unknowable by science. But nothing is truly out of bounds for science. If it's real, it can be studied, and tested. Perhaps the greatest misunderstanding our culture has about the scientific method involves the definition of the word "theory". A theory is not a guess, and this word does not in any way imply uncertainty about the validity of a concept or an equation. Watch this and learn more about the terms hypothesis, theory, and law.

  • Metabolomicist Vasudevan Karanghat (Get to Know a Scientist!)

    What is metabolomics? Why, it's the study of metabolites of course! In the case of today's researcher, Vasudevan Karanghat, this means using instrumentation and analytical techniques to figure out the concentrations of various compounds in a person's blood or urine. It's neat, check it out!
