Third Thoughts

A channel dedicated to exploring the history of ideas. We cover a wide range of topics across the social sciences and humanities, and strive to place all of them in their appropriate historical context. When topics are controversial, our goal is to provide you, the viewer, with a strong grounding in the history of the topics. That does not mean that we strive for neutrality - journalistic neutrality is an impossible goal. But we will always be clear about what is our opinion, provide sources for our evidence, and respectfully address counterarguments - in other words, academic rigor, presented accessibly!
