I certainly don't want to complain and very much appreciate the whole category theory-on-video venture. On my mission to watch all of the video, catalogue the concepts used and then place the videos in a partial ordering I have noticed that after Slice and Comma Categories 2 it all goes a bit quiet on the old Slice and Comma Category front. "I am probably not finding it (Slice and Comma 3). Even if it isn't there I don't know why we should EXPECT you to do it. It's not like we're paying you but, you know, you get into these things and questions arise.
Respect
I'm learning (basic) category theory on my own.
Your lectures are a very welcome addition to the textbooks and other media I use to this end. :)
For instance the "fishes"-diagrams (whiskering) in the lecture on natural transformations,
and the string-diagrams, I found very illuminating!
Many thanks!
