I, Writer: A List of Fun Science Shows

Start with the library and wander through the stacks. You'll find fantastic things.

Science Videos

3Blue1Brown - Makes complex math interesting and accessible.

ASAP Science - Easily understandable explanations of interesting subjects from chickens to Marijuana. I love the white board style.

BBC Science Club (Directed by: Asa Lucander) - Well-done animation always gets extra points from me every time especially if it serves to illustrate the topics well.

The Brain Scoop - Presented by The Field Museum. Warning to the squeamish. There are episodes on dissection. I am squeamish. The channel is fantastic covering a broad range of subjects from experts. It's fun to see people who love their professions explain them. There is so much to learn here.

Computerphile - Professor Brailsford is personally my favorite presenter on the channel but all videos are informative and interesting.

How to Cook That - I have a strong affection for cooking shows. I could easily write a list of them. This show features more cooking than Emmy. I note it here because of the experimental aspect to many recipes. Ann Reardon experiments to make sugar bowls, jelly beans and Aero bars to name a few. Her willingness to show what methods failed impressed me.

Ling Space - An education in linguistics.

MinuteEarth - Similar concept as ASAP Science but with a focus on Earth.

MinutePhysics - Similar concept as ASAP Science but with a focus on physics. Fantastic video: The True Science of Parallel Universes

National Geographic - National Geographic covers a multitude of topics. This is just one in a network of 45 channels. The videos are top quality and interesting.

SciShow - Topics to inform and ignite your curiosity for more. Many subjects are covered like lying and volcanoes.

SciShow Space - Like SciShow with a focus on space.

Sick Science! - Well-produced videos of simple but flashy experiments. Steve Spangler's website features deeper explanations of the experiments. He has a show on Saturday morning on Fox.

Closing

A video, book, or really any resource shouldn't be the end of your search. It's a view on a subject. Search, learn, ask questions, challenge authority, think critically. Open your mind and let amazing ideas in.

Learning and growing is a moral imperative.
