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!

    Graphing Conic Sections Part 1: Circles

    We've graphed tons of lines, but now it's time to graph more complex figures. Conic sections, which are literally cross-sections of a cone, will be important to be able to graph. Let's learn what these conic sections are, and learn how to graph them one by one, starting with circles.

    Aaron Siri is a Worthless Anti-Vaxx Stooge

    Intelligent people are aware of what a complete nightmare RFK Jr. is. But he has a particular underling that is also quite vile, and who deserves to be exposed as well. That would be his attorney, Aaron Siri. Aaron is a lawyer whose firm handles cases for Bobby, as well as Del Bigtree's propaganda organization ICAN. He gets paid millions of dollars to concoct shady lawyerspeak that will score procedural wins in court which he can misrepresent and offer as proof that vaccines are harmful. He's been spewing his script of lies in front of the Senate and on Joe Rogan, and lots of people are falling for it, so let's tear it to shreds, shall we?

    Meiosis, Gametes, and the Human Life Cycle

    We know that your body produces more cells through mitosis. But where did your very first cell come from? It can't have been mitosis, because mitosis needs a cell to start with. As it turns out, meiosis and subsequent fertilization are the culprits! Meiosis is another kind of cell division, but it is different from mitosis. How is it different, pray tell? Watch and find out!

    Baiting Flat Earth Dave With AI Images (Artemis Bonus Episode!)

    Since everyone seemed to enjoy my recent video on flat earthers freaking out about the Artemis II mission, how about a little bonus episode? Right after posting that video, someone informed me that they had been baiting David Weiss, posing as a pilot who flew the vomit comet that allowed them to fake the Orion interior shots. And the dumbass bought it! He used AI-generated pictures and testimony in his recent content. Let's go over all the details and mock him some more, shall we?

    Valence Bond Theory, Hybrid Orbitals, and Molecular Orbital Theory

    Attention! This video about molecular orbitals is much better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2k61JMk71M Alright, let's be real. Nobody understands molecular orbitals when they first take chemistry. You just pretend you do, and then in your next course you learn them a little better. And then a little better than that. And five years later you sort of understand them. So don't get discouraged! Just watch this for a head start and do your best.

    NASA's Artemis Program: Future Goals (Featuring Scott Solomon)

    With the Artemis II mission completed, what's next for the Artemis program? What will be the goals of the next set of missions? Will we build a permanent lunar base? What about a Martian base? Who will live on these bases and what will they do? What are the biological concerns related to living off-Earth for extended periods of time? Let's go over some details, and then speak with biologist Scott Solomon, whose new book deals with precisely these questions.

    Eric Weinstein Walks Into a Bar...

    Hey remember when Eric Weinstein tangled with Sean Carroll on the Piers Morgan program? And how humiliating it was for Eric, since Sean politely let him have it about how Geometric Unity is absolutely nothing? That was good times. Well there have been some developments since then. First, Eric has finally started publicly talking shit about me. Second, a physicist named Christian Ferko reached out to me with a very interesting anecdote regarding an encounter he had with a drunken Eric Weinstein, which ties into a claim he made while on Piers Morgan. He tells the story in this video, and then we keep him around to dunk on Geometric Unity some more. Man, Eric is really unraveling, isn't he? It's really funny. Let's all point and laugh.

The largest ones were found in Mesoamerica, which is present day Mexico. This includes the Olmecs, Mayans, and Aztecs.
