Thanks for the heads up. I knew he was a devout Catholic, but I never had the experience that he was pushing any agenda–as in he tends to just stick to technical content. I don’t mind watching people with different opinions than mine, but “cure the gay” is very problematic. I would be sad, since I really like his content. I will have to read up some more on this.

Along similar lines: another channel I have been watching is Smarter Every Day, where the host, Destin, is fairly open about his faith. That may put some people off, but overall I have found his content overall interesting and I don’t feel like he’s preaching to me, but others may be more sensitive to that. He’s currently pushing his own grill scrubber product pretty hard, which I find off-putting, but I see what he’s trying to do. I’m giving him a chance to get back to more interesting engineering stuff.

To address the others: yes, I know there are some potentially controversial entries, like Veritasium and Kurzgesagt. I have Veritasium “on probation” due to the change, but so far the new hosts have done a pretty decent job. Kurzgesagt is one I kind of leave for a long time and then come back every so often, because they have something interesting and their content is presented well. Totally understand if people choose to give them a skip.
