I enjoyed this article! A few choice quotes that really resonated with me:
"Passion is the sharp clear boundary separating good explainers from the bad."
"Finally an inability to explain in simple terms is the most direct evidence of an absence of understanding."
"Even the loftiest scientific principles have a simple intuition behind them. Newton said that every theorem he worked out, he first started by dealing in simple examples."
I recommend to at least watch the first episode of each series.

Not sure I understand the "aha" moment here...
