Yep, folks asked for commentary for a while so I figured I'd try it. I admit that it takes less time than filling out tons of text boxes in a video editor!
@@TheGeoModels kill two birds with one stone. Nice! Easier quicker and more engaging for a larger audience. Hopefully it’s paying off with more subscribers.
@@PlayNowWorkLater only that New Madrid video is really rolling along...my suspicion is because "Earthquake damage" is in the title! I think geology videos about "large rock masses" aren't quite the same as geology videos about specific rocks, but I've been working in the rock mass realm for so long now I can't get away from it. I'm just glad some of the folks that see these vids get something out of them. Most of them are adaptations of blogs I wrote for AGU; I wanted to have some other record of them somewhere!
Video idea- Why does the gulf of St Lawrence look like that in Google maps, like an underwater riverbed miles across? Could an ice dam break have flooded out like the Badlands and carried so much material that the continental shelf in that area in an alluvial fan? Most shelves don't exten out as far as they do in that general area.
Wonderful and great citation to the other video, it was a great companion with this. I like watching your videos; educational and great visual explanations. Do you have, or could you find interesting geology in Nebraska or the central Great Plains? Living here my entire life, I would like to see some local content and generate some coffee shop talk. I would like to share more than our great aquifer, sand hills and western buttes to my friends and extended family.
That's fascinating!
The video of this thing happening was nuts. It's not really a thing we get on the east coast.
Your videos have leveled up a notch or two with the added commentary and window to see a real person.

Now I understand why the Palos Verdes slide has produced a new shoreline at Portuguese Cove.
All those sandstone cliffs above the beaches are unstable. They just crumble and erode. San Diego puts up warnings to stay off of the cliffs

That's a good one...combination of glacial ice movement and overall tectonics. I will custom make you a vid if you will watch it!

what a great lesson in mass wasting. Excellent visuals and commentary per usual!
