Explained is exactly what it looks, a bunch of 20 minutes mini-documentaries about a variety of topics. The docs are well paced, talk to a variety of interesting experts and concerned parties, and benefit from great graphics. The episodes are reminiscent of the videos Vox publishes on its own YouTube channel, they're meant for curious individuals to broaden their awareness of topics and issues in society, tech, finance, science, sports, politics, entertainment and more. Be aware that in 20 minutes, the content obviously stays pretty top level, so feel free to skip stuff you're already familiar with.
