TV shows about STEM subjects are typically dumbed down so everyone can understand it.
The same is generally true of YouTube, but you can at least find the high-brow content if you look for it.
What's still difficult to find on YouTube is content for people who are smart, but aren't taking STEM courses in college.
Take EEVblog, which is run by an electronics enginener: He mostly doesn't explain anything. He just tears stuff down and points at random parts. Why? Audience retention.
