Greetings all!

There are a few YouTube channels I watch on a regular basis that I’d put in the science/math bin. Here are a few examples:

NileRed Standup Maths Steve Mould AlphaPhoenix

I was wondering if anyone here had any recommendations for other science/math channels to follow or a resource that aggregates good channels. As a lay person, as in no college level education on these topics, I’m not sure I have the qualifications to determine if a channel is highly accurate or not. I think I’ve done a good job finding channels that are accurate but wanted to check in with folks that may be able to better determine that.

I’m particularly interested in astronomy, cosmology, and evolution.

Awesome, thanks for the recommendations!

I’ll have to take a closer look at Nebula and CuriosityStream. I think they come up in ads enough that they wind up on my mental ad blocker so I’ve never looked closely at them :)

I like Nebula. It's not too expensive, there's a lot of great creators, and it's an easy way to support a variety without subscribing to all sorts of Patreons.

Yeah. I haven’t looked at them yet for that exact reason, but the argument is making sense to me.
