Professor Dave Explains

Welcome! I have a knack for explaining stuff and I want to share some knowledge with you.

I received a BA in chemistry from Carleton College, and performed graduate studies in both synthetic organic chemistry and science education at Cal State Northridge, receiving an MA in the latter. Prior to this I taught for about a decade in various high school and undergraduate settings, specializing in organic chemistry but also teaching general chemistry, physics, and biology.

This channel is for students at the high school and undergraduate level, but it is also for members of the general public who just want to know more about the world and how things work. My goal is to increase science literacy in our society, so please share these tutorials with anyone that you think might enjoy them. Happy learning!

    EPA Head Lee Zeldin is a Freaking Nightmare

    Trump's second-term cabinet is the stuff of nightmares. I've talked about Bobby Kennedy's dismantling of HHS quite a bit, but it's not just public health that is in shambles under this administration. The environment is on the chopping block as well, especially under new EPA head Lee Zeldin. The person who is supposed to be in charge of protecting the citizenry by preventing the private sector from polluting our air and water is actively siding with the polluters and making sure they have all the freedom to pollute as much as they want. It's difficult to describe how much of a worthless cretin this guy is, but let's give it a shot.

    Expressing Time in Latin

    The Beginnings of Human Civilization

    For a long time humans were hunter-gatherers. But at a certain point, human civilization began to flourish. This involved large cities of thousands of people, social stratification, trade specialization, and record-keeping. Agriculture was a big part of this transition as well. So what were the first human civilizations and what can we say about them from the standpoint of archeology?

    Michael Button: Rising Pseudoarcheology Fraud

    It's time to expose another worthless pseudoarcheology fraud! With some obvious targets out of the way, let's hit one of the newer rising stars, Michael Button. He's essentially a Graham Hancock clone. Same script full of lies, same accent, same demeanor, same everything. He seems to be hoping to be passed the torch, and Graham seems to approve. If you saw through toxic douchebags like Dan and Jimmy, but you were clinging to this guy as some kind of voice for truth, think again. Every video is jam packed with lies and deception.
