Complexly: SciShow, Crash Course and more
The world is not simple. And that can seem like a burden sometimes. The reality is, the human species will never fully understand itself or its universe, let alone any individual. But instead of seeing that as a failing, we'd like to suggest that the process is as powerful as the outcome. The more we understand, the better we get at being humans, and that is one of the only worthwhile goals out there. We are a group of people who make stuff to help that process along and reflects our own excitement and enthusiasm for understanding and imagining things complexly. Complexly is the production company for Crash Course, SciShow, and a dozen other educational YouTube channels. With over 31,000,000 subscribers and 55,000,000 views per month, it is one of the largest global online educational companies. Crash Course has created over 1400 videos covering dozens of academic courses with more in the works. Subjects include World History, English Literature, Chemistry, Biology, Economics, Physics, Psychology, Philosophy, and more. SciShow is an online video news and informational channel about science. Whether we're answering the burning questions of our audience (If I weigh 99 pounds and eat 1 pound of nachos...am I 1% nacho?) or talking about the latest findings of the Mars Science Laboratory, we do it in short, fast-paced, entertaining bits five days a week. SciShow has over seven million subscribers and its videos have been viewed over 1.7 billion times. To learn more about us, check out our website: complexly.com
