I'm right there with you - I've watched their videos for better part of 2 years. Each video I've seen most likely twice while some of them I need to watch 4-5 times to understand.
At times, I'll think I understand it. Come back 6 months later having a bit more understanding of related topics only to realize I understood absolutely none of the original video and am just beginning to get it =/. Seemingly innocuous sentences carry insane amounts of information (i.e. Do anything to a blackhole and the surface area never decreases except in Hawking Radiation)
The topics do appear jump around a lot, but there's method to the madness. Topics such as Blackhole/Thermodynamic entropy require foundations that appear unrelated at first.
Sure, they have video lists[0] to help but I've rewatched this one so many times.
> they would present string theory more or less as fact
To be fair, they have a why ST is right[1] and wrong[2].
As you can tell, I'm a SpaceTime fanboy.
