Cool, thanks for the recommendations. I gravitated to SciShow because was produced by Hank Green, who's other YouTube offerings I really enjoy. I guess it's a lesson to be more critical with my sources, regardless of the author's previous work.
In general I find science journalism lacking.
My biggest problem with SciShow is that it's a bunch of people who lack a true science background commenting on topics. I really don't think that they do their due diligence in reporting, there's been cases where they present incorrect findings, and hype up the physically impossible.
