Two Year Anniversary
I will be putting out a Q&A video to coincide with my channel's two-year anniversary, so please ask any questions you might have.I would especially like to thank all of you, my patrons, for helping to support me in this little endeavor. This last month I can finally say with certainty that I'...
Death Comes For All | Death Anxiety
We are all going to die - and that is terrifying. So we've come up with several ways to ignore and deny death in order to keep ourselves sane.
Creating Causes: The Power of Hindsight
Whenever the unthinkable happens, people naturally want to figure out why. But when there's decades of historical data to work with, people might end up creating causes out of thin air.
April Fool's: Ten Things About Ferrets
Hey everyone,I just wanted to clarify why this video was not put up for Early Access, which is part of the new $5 rewards. Since it was an April Fool's joke and I don't normally act like an over-the-top tool like that, I didn't really want to spoil the joke by putting up for review a day...
Ireland: Europe's Appendix
Ireland is more than that once-a-year holiday, leprechauns, and Guinness. It may actually be Europe's true savior.
Asking Better Q&A
When I hit 1000 subscribers and one year of the channel's existence, I opened myself up to your questions, here was the result!
1000 Subs Blooper Reel
From June 2017, when I hit 1000 subs.
Bloopers from September 2016
Since I've decided to make bloopers a patron-only reward, I suppose I should post them here, right?
Free Vault: Tetrachromats Don't Have Superpowers (Clean)
The original version of this video, available on YouTube, has one or two moments that may not make it very classroom or child-friendly. So I have made a "clean" version of it - but left it unlisted and am instead offering it for free here. This isn't something I always intend on doing, b...

Bloopers and Thanks for 500 Subs!
I've reached 500 subs so I decided to put out my third blooper reel. Don't worry, I'll get my act together eventually. This is the first video to feature the shoutouts to all of my new patrons. The Fake News video included the names of those of you who have pledged $10+ in the end screen...

State of the Channel 9/21
So we did it! We finally hit 250 subscribers (267 last I checked) and made a video about it. While I made a video talking about some of the behind the scenes aspects of my channel and its content, along with some tomfoolery involving ice and some cinnamon, I didn’t address the upcoming changes to ...
250 Subs: Facts, Thanks, and Challenges

So naturally, the next day I filmed this, my 250 milestone video.In it, I discuss Patreon and how it is a much better platform to help support me and my channel. My content will always be free on youtube, howeve...

100 Subs!
Last night KnowingBetter topped 100 subs! We finally made it to the big leagues! Honestly, I didn't think the channel would make it this far, I kind of thought my drive would fizzle out after the first few. But all of the comments, feedback, and support I had been getting from so few of you was ...
July 2016 patron supported
Thank you so much for the support this month!
So I decided to create a Patreon
I feel like somewhat of a sell-out for doing this, but I assure you I'm not. Nobody who starts a YouTube channel does it for the money - just like being a teacher. But between copyright strikes (which I have none *fingers crossed*) and random de-monetization, YouTube has a number of ways to ta...
