Friday ontopic fun: In A Nutshell

Not sure if you've heard about this Youtube channel, but in case you haven't, here's the deal.

The Kurzgesagt channel, now renamed to In A Nutshell, is full of succinct, short, very informative videos on various scientific, social, political and other topics. A lot of stuff is packed in vids that are normally between 5-6 mins long. Some of those pieces are truly fascinating, and many are suitable for young kids, too. Some examples:

What is life in a nutshell:

Conspiracies in a nutshell:

Why nuclear energy is both awesome and terrible...

Etc, etc.

Really, I recommend that you check it out. Personally, I've spent hours watching these videos.
