Oh yes, I've been following these history lessons and they're super interesting and very entertaining; great for brushing up on fuzzily remembered world history courses or learning something new entirely. There's also a sister channel called scishow made by the same guys: http://www.youtube.com/user/scishow

There's also vsauce, veritasium and minutephysics that are all in the same vein. I love being subscribed to all of these channels because it almost guarantees that I'll have some cool brain food to watch every time I log in. Nerdwriter1 is another newcomer who is a very thoughtful and philosophical vlogger.

If anyone knows of any other cool education channels, let me know! I can't get enough of them.

Can we make a list of awesome YT channels like this one to subscribe to?

I'm following SciShow since I saw it. Those brothers are all over YT! I also follow Minute Physics. Here's one of my favorite science channels on YT: Sixty Symbols. http://youtu.be/s_NN8pZxTP8

vsauce and veritasium look cool. I'll check 'em out.

Thanks, I've subscribed to that one as well. Speaking of brothers, you just reminded me of another pair of brothers who are much less prolific but very good at discussing topics relating to logic, philosophy, religion, atheism, science and some other miscellaneous topics. QualiaSoup, which I linked to yesterday as well, and TheraminTrees.

(Btw, the featured videos on each of their pages are not theirs.)

I'll try to post some of my favorites. Check my hub if you're interested. :)
