    I'm so glad I found you!
    Science videos seem so clickbaity, and their channels are the cookie cutter type. It's actually refreshing to see you breaking down complex science and mathematical wizardry, so we all can have a chance to understand them.
    I dunno if you get this alot. But your voice is soo soothing. you're definitely not hard on the eyes, at all! Actually your flipping adorable!
    OK I got some more of your videos to marathon binge watch!
    Thank you for your work! This is literally the best example of why the internet is fantastic!
    Sincerely, your newest Subscriber! Keep up the great content!

    It's puts in perspective how smart THOSE people are if someone as smart as you is unable to understand 100% of every word of their thesis... There's average people who are mildly interested in science, then there's people like you who do intellectual reviews of others work, and then there's people who provide those aforementioned work, DAMN!!

    You have headed in the right direction toward understanding natural phenomena in the universe objectively or correctly when saying that physics of particles is a better way t

    The "Quantum Chromodynamics" concept certainly could be overwhelming to some. Mathematics to explain the pomeron is of intrigue. As time goes on, questions such as: Why are there generations of quarks and leptons, is there a Planck particle, and what combinations of quarks are possible, muon/pion processing and what is time?! Definitely open to on going learning and evaluation as years progress.
