Hey man! Thanks for the vid! :) The beginning part of the video is indeed mostly Physics, and even then, it's theoretical Physics which... Yeah, not exactly easy to follow especially given the video does not focus on this and thus oversimplifies it and very much assumes you're familiar with the concepts. So first of all the part about the nothing having never been anywhere. That part is part Physics and part Philosophy. "Nothing is not, and cannot ever be" is a quote attributed to the Greek Philosopher Parmenides which kind of stuck as a definition for nothing because it is, indeed correct. It just makes talking about "Nothing" very weird, as you cannot say "Before the Universe, there was nothing". There was not Nothing, because Nothing cannot be. So as the video says "Nothing was never anywhere". Then Bill goes to the colloquial way of speaking about it saying "That's why it was Everywhere". But you don't need a "When" or a "Where" because it was never anywhere, as in "Nothing" is not within Space and Time. I said all of this because it is somewhat tied to the doubt you had about him saying "Everything is already here and it probably already happened". This is not a a reference to a cyclical Universe, but rather a reflection about Nothing, Time and Space. Since we've established that "Nothing cannot be", then what should in theory logically follow is that "Something has always been". Which, as far as we know, is true. For as long as time existed, Space and matter also have. And it makes no logical sense to ask what came "Before Time", since we are posing a temporal question about a time when there was no Time. Spacetime and Matter all came to be with the Big Bang and the correct way to say it is indeed Spacetime, in a single word, as the dimensions are tied one to another. But while length, width and height are static measures that we can perceive as being static, as we are trapped within time we see it as a succession of moments. The leading theory, though, is that it is a "Static" dimension as well, as in all moments actually exist at the same time, despite our inability to perceive them as such. Thus this is why he says that. We exist "At the same time" as the birth of the Universe and the end of the Universe. Thus "Everything is already here and it probably already happened". Not sure if I was any clearer, but I hope it makes sense :)

This is actually a normal thing in my country for grades 1 through 4-5. Aside from Foreign Language, PE and Art/Music, all basic subjects (Mother Language, Math, History, Geography and Science) are taught by one teacher. After 5th grade is when we finally separate each subject by teacher (unless he/she has a degree in multiple subjects and a contract, of course). Teachers got paid by the amount of class hours they have per week and education level, also. (primary school teachers do not need to have university degrees to teach as long as they have high school degrees in that; so their salary is lower. Secondary school teachers, that is grades 6th and above, they NEED to have at least a Bachelor's degree in Pedagogy plus their subject of choice to be allowed to teach, and the higher level of diplomas you have you can get salary bonus for it. In the public school system there is also a thing called "Teachers' Continued Education" in English I think to improve even further and continually those teachers' knowledge and teaching techniques)

Fun fact, Mansa Musa actually destroyed entire kingdoms with his wealth. On his parade through Africa, throwing his gold to all, he'd end up entirely crashing the theoretical worth of gold in those areas, effectively destroying their entire system of money because now gold had no real worth. Man was so rich he could just personally crash the worth of an invaluable resource like gold. That would be like Jeff Bezos handing out diamonds with paychecks for Amazon employees. All of them.

the "but at least there is beaver" is a really nice thing that it is in there because at that time many pelt bearing animals were almost extinct through hunting in Europe so beaver pelts was a big export good to Europe from America. I also like how you feel the speed picking up towards the more modern years. So many things happened in the last 20 years in terms of technology, knowledge and events that have a world wide impact.

I went to a Christian junior school. They taught creationism as fact and never discussed other religions. My best friend there was Hindu. Not sure why her parents had her going there. I still remember my confusion over why she didn't celebrate Christmas and didn't understand this Diwali she did. Why did her family do this celebration but mine didn't? Sexual education was also very lacking. We learnt the basics of how babies were made (with signed permission from a parent). But I didn't know about homosexual relationships until age 14/15. My intro was anime. Yeah...even my family forgot to teach me that. And going back to juniors, one of my friends had two mums. I thought they were just good friends or sisters or something. Would like to note I haven't been religious since said childhood. I don't believe in that stuff.

Regarding oxygen, I think you're talking about the Great Oxydation Event, just when photosythesis appeared. This strategy of using the sun for energy/food was so successful that it killed nearly everything in the planet (to be fair, there wasn't much, that we know of at least). When a species is too successful, it multiplies so much that it takes all the space and change even the atmosphere. A bit like us nowadays lol. In a way, we're just following nature even now.

And much like the cyanobacteria releasing all that oxygen caused the evolution of species that would replace them as the "most successful" reproducing organisms, we are probably creating the perfect conditions for a down fall and population reduction of our own, aren't we? I wonder what will become the new normal in the next few centuries =D

A LOT of pressure on schooling, for me and a lot of the people i knew, was feeling like we had to learn everything perfectly forever. That all teachers just had EVERYTHING they taught completely memorized perfectly and that we were there to learn to do the same. If i had known that it is okay to learn something as well as you can, remember the important bits and that it's *okay* to not have perfect memory, to need to go back and refresh yourself on details etc. I would've had a lot more fun, a lot better time, and probably done a lot better, not just on tests but with my time and efforts, than i did by thinking my teachers were, and that I also had to become perfect with it.

The start with "how every it gets" is referring to the "singularity", when all energy was located in a single point at the beginning of time. It is the idea that when you trace back the expansion of space-time you hit a point where everything is located in an infinitely small point ("in" is a bit weird, since space and time dont really make sense with singularities, but whatever). This is why he said you dont need a "when" or a "where", because it is "every". ^^ 22:18 what bothers me more is when people white-wash Columbus. The guy was such a savage, even his contemporaries though the was a blood-thirst maniac.

We never learned about different religions because they forced us to be christians (which I'm not and it took me years to discover this by myself - but I am interested in religion as topic even though I'm an atheist) and I hated history and geography. Now, being 34, I appreciate both subjects a lot more, and I'm always trying to learn something new because I think that knowledge is never too much. Your students are very lucky to have you.

I feel like the northern countries (Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland) are really good when it comes to teaching religion. Like he said at 13:04 we spend equal amounts of time on each religion despite being, in all technicality, Christian countries (that’s dying out though as most are agnostic, atheist, and Islam is pretty big in Norway at least). Like I remember learning about the biggest religions and their different “kinds,” but also about samì religion, Confucianism, satanism, Wicca, and other forms of paganisms. I mostly enjoyed learning about the “smaller” religions/pagan beliefs. Most of my friends from different countries and continents don’t even get close to all of that

Regarding the order, I think it's a great idea to show this video first as a "primer" and then drive deeper into reach topic, referencing that portion before starting. That way, when you talk about it in depth, the kids will already have a sense of perspective regarding when in history those events took place, what led to them, and how they affected the future. I wish this existed 20 years ago, I'd probably be much more interested to actually listen during history classes.

Watching a comprehensive history video like this makes me feel even more strongly that all students should play some sort of 4x civ building game, such as Sid Meier's Civilization. That allows them to simulate, visualize, and participate in the history that they're learning about in school. It also exposes them to the concept of the "tech tree" which illustrates how simpler technologies build upon and combine together to bring about more complex technologies. So that, ideally, when you place an object in their hands, it's not simply a black box that popped into existence out of nowhere, but rather something that they can begin to identify bits and pieces of and forensically trace back its development from previous objects. . The same goes for human history to learn the origins of and relationships between different cultures over time. Of course, it's important to learn specific names and dates, but often the forest can be lost through the trees, so to speak. It's always important to keep the big picture in mind (eg. "empires rise and empires fall").

I'd argue in favor of one of the Paradox grand strategy titles, maybe more than one, to get a "feel" for how paradigms have shifted over time. Say, start them with Imperator: Rome, then Crusader Kings, then Europa Universalis, then finish things off with Hearts of Iron. Most of history in one game series. I skipped Victoria, because even though it's quite good, it isn't easy to get into. They're significantly less random sandboxy (oh, I invented an adjective) than the Civilization games and significantly more grounded in history.

Those are basically collections of simplified parts of most of the rest of the games, except HoI, which helped me make sense of EU3 and CK2 when I started playing those. CK2 or CK3 would be another entry point, where the focus on characters, relationships and families could help a bit. But yes, significantly higher threshold than the Civ games.

So, to answer some stuff that you asked about, in the vid: There was a hypothesis that the universe would expand out until a certain point and then it would come back in and do that over and over. This was called the Big Crunch. However, given our best understanding of the shape and expansion of the universe this model is very unlikely. You were right. The term is Cosmic Background Radiation or CMBR and it is kinda a map of the big bang Yes, at one point all life on earth early died from oxygen poisoning. Early life was purple in color to take advantage of the suns light and wasn't able to process large amounts of oxygen. New green life however, emited it as a byproduct and it caused the first mass extinction on earth. Ps. I really liked your insight on the history stuff. It's not my area of focus but I love to hear about it anyway.

Instead of lecturing about the daily life, he had us all choose from a list of jobs during that time and play it out with each other for a week. We were separated into groups of 2 or 3. My group of 3 wanted construction and only major construction was left. After talking to the teacher, we were given the okay to build a castle for a king (Cheat code activated). I have a feeling that he used to play dungeons and dragons lol.

I'm really jealous hearing about other countries school systems. Like learning in depth stuff about different political parties,religions, etc. But not forcing anything on us, like they kind of do now, sounds so God damn cool.

At my high school the freshmen have a class option of AP Human Geography, which goes over world politics, geography, architecture, religion, etc. Technically it's considered a college class, which kids who got lower grades in middle school are strongly discouraged to take, and it pushes out the slot for an elective, so band or sports kids can't take it. Most kids that were in that class didn't care about politics or religion, it was full of people that were forced to take it by their parents for a prettier GPA. That's the US education system folks.

Here's a surprise: I went to school (all 12 years) in the US, and this video is a perfect summary of everything we studied save for the mathematics and literature. All the sciences plus history, and FWIW, I can recall all of it, so either I studied well (was a C student at best, GPA 2.78, what do tests know?) or have a good memory. Most of the "bad reputation" is twofold, IMHO; one, there's always a bit of general envy for the guy in first place (economy, silly) and any way to tear him down is a likely target, and two, most of the US standard scores are skewed due to the heterogeneous population of the US. A particularly nasty bit of statistical analysis to do is to compare only the white kids with Europe; dropping out the minorities (and I _know_ this sounds awful, but I'm trying to be clinical here, and not going into causative factors, which are many and varied) puts the US at the _absolute top_ of the chart. Not by much, but solidly ahead of the second-place nation. I don't know what we should do with that information. Certainly nothing untoward.

Hey, first off I’d like to state I’ll probably never watch your videos again, I know that sounds extreme, but it’s simply just because I don’t watch this kind of content. I will, however, leave a like because I liked the video. I’d also like to state that you’re an awesome person. Slowly learning about you as a person, the ways you teach your students and allow them to see the world how they want to and not be forced to believe a certain ideology is so nice and is exactly how teachers should teach. So thank you very much for being you. Have a good one and best of luck to you and your kids!

12:50 oh man, I wish it was like this in more places. when I was attending school it was just catholic lessons with priest/nun/catechist and the tone of those lessons really depended on whoever was teaching (whether they were like SaTaN LuRkS EVERYWHERE or just chill discussions that you could enjoy engaging in). if someone was not religious they had 'free' time when you could do homework in library or sth if religion wasn't 1st or last during the day. there's 'ethics' as a replacement, but back in my days it wasn't common at schools and I just went to the library. I suppose the only time other religions were mentioned was on sth like social studies? (idk english equivalent) but nothing actual to learn, besides 'well, there's also like judaism, islam, hinduism, buddhism and many other religions, judaism and islam are kinda related to christianity.' but everyone already knows that. (for context I'm from Poland, finished highschool about 8 years ago. some things have changed, 'gimnazjum' is no longer a thing, but it's shitty system anyways)

I always find it fascinating that most of the rest of the world, or at least most of Europe, teaches world religions in schools. Here in the US, most people don't even have the option of learning about religions in school until university, and even then only if it's part of your major or you chose the class as an elective. The exception being private religious schools, for instance Catholic schools that teach kids to be Catholic from a young age, etc. It's no wonder there's so much "Christians are the default / are superior" attitude in the States, to the point where you get things like people assuming non-religious folks are evil and immoral, and assuming polytheist religions such as Wicca are about devil worship. (I suppose it's not *just* the US, considering Ozzy Osbourne's ignorant lyric "there may be religions, but only one God" -- but we in the US are very good at that kind of viewpoint nonetheless.)

I live in Sweden and I was really shocked when I found out about the education system in other countries. My teachers always let the students form their own views and opinions on things, whenever we talk religion or politics our teachers won't even tell us what party they vote for or what religion they believe in or something like that. In grade 2 we started learning about buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Christiany etc.. During the times that we learnt about the religions we were also taught about the major events and all sorts of things surrounding that religion, like traditional clothing and food etc. I find it so important that teachers remain teachers and don't take the "parent role" upon themselves to try and teach children what they should/shouldn't believe in. A big part in why we are being taught about so many religions is probably because Sweden is (although many people are members of the church) an atheist/ not very strict with religon place. I'm really happy to have grown up in a place like this and I wish students in other countries like the USA could also be taught about other religions, political views and laws in other countries aswell. Seeing the recent hate against muslim people in the USA has been truly heartbreaking. Children should be taught about other's life standards even if they won't experience it first hand, it's an incredibly important part in preventing what's now happening around the world. Seeing people like you who actually seem to be interested in other people's lifestyles really gives me hope for the future

@@IceMetalPunk I even have a friend who's taking gender studies as a minor and it's more how gender can affect people's views and biases, such as the fact that women don't get talked about as much in things like autism. Of course they study cultural perception of gender as well but it's not the whole course.

About the CMB (Cosmic Microwave Background): this is the traces of the first light that could actually _escape_ from the "primordial soup" (as it is called) -- "before" that, any photon would have encountered another particle and would have bounced "around". The discovery of that CMB was a typical case of serendipity, which awarded the Nobel prize in physics to its two lucky discoverers (Penzias and Wilson). I could expand on the subject, if you want, and up to a certain point :)
