Coenzyme-A950 karma

Hi Philipp!

Firstly, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank yourself and everyone else involved for the love and care you put into Kurzgesagt. The videos have certainly helped myself and doubtless many others when times are tough.

My question is, do you have any plans to create videos on meta-research topics, in the vein of the "Can You Trust Kurzgesagt" video? As a research student, I find science communication incredibly interesting, and have huge respect for how you convey often complex topics. Do you think you would ever create videos looking at how primary research is produced and reviewed, or on scientific skepticism and distrust within the public?

I hope this question isn't too lengthy.

Best Wishes,

John.

Thanks so much for your reply!

That sounds fantastic, I can't wait! With the Eons Calendar, Immune book and so on, you and the rest of Kurzgesagt must be as busy as ever- so I want to thank you again for the work that you and the rest of the team do to produce such amazing content, and to help communicate good, strong science that can help everyone. It really does feel like an incredible community.

Best Wishes,

John.

Not to answer on behalf of Philipp, but I seem to recall a mention on a few videos that the merch quickly became a big factor in keeping themselves running.
