  • Discussing Grounds For Morality With a Live Caller (Skeptic Haven)

    Skeptic Haven is a show that I appear on from time to time which features live callers on topics pertaining to religion and science, and the calls range from highly contentious to thought-provoking and constructive. Here is one of them.

  • Phylogeny and the Tree of Life

    Alright, we've learned about how unicellular organisms came to be, how they became multicellular, and then from those how evolution by natural selection produced all the species in the world today. But there are so many! Millions and millions in fact. Which is most closely related to which? When did each evolve? What about all the ones that are gone? How do we keep track of this?! Ok calm down, friend. There is a whole discipline called taxonomy that we use to keep track of the phylogeny of every species. To see how it works, we look at the tree of life!

  • The High Middle Ages Part 2: Crusades and Inquisitions

    After examining the changes in government and economics during the High Middle Ages, let's turn to the religious and ideological conflicts of the period. Tensions were increasing between the Christian and Muslim worlds, and there were also conflicts with the various sects of Christianity. This led to the Crusades as well as the first of several inquisitions. This stuff can get pretty gruesome, but let's dive into it.

  • Practice Problems: Labeling Carbons

    What's with this hierarchy? Primary, secondary, tertiary... can't all carbons be equal? Well, no. We need to be able to label the degree of substitution of any carbon in an organic molecule so that we can make predictions about the chemistry that can occur. But don't worry, they won't get their feelings hurt.

    Everyone knows that Professor Dave makes educational tutorials for many subjects, and also debunks pseudoscience, but did you know that he's basically the worst person ever? Like seriously, he's so toxic, and mean, and has a potty mouth, and he's basically just next-level awful. For literally no reason! Nobody wants to be friends with him. I heard it on the internet.
