About

The internet is wide and chock full of video content. Scattered throughout this landscape are programs, shows, movies, documentaries and more that are of interest to, about, or otherwise for skeptics, rationalists, freethinkers and other science minded people. The goal of the project is to collect as much of that content into one place as possible. Hoping to make it easier to find programs which might appeal but were otherwise unknown or hard to find.

If there are any freely available programs or shows which you know of that I missed, please let me know about them.

Good design, he suggests, is the best way to navigate information glut — and it may just change the way we see the world.
