About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like accessible, awe-filled science documentaries such as Planet Earth or Natural World; Not for you if you want dense facts, a faster pace, or less focus on the presenter’s style.
Pros: clear simple explanations; stunning locations and visuals; inspiring sense of wonder | Cons: presenter-heavy style; light on detail; repetitive at times
