A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

PBS is the only television worth a damn. Incidentally, it is replete with history, documentaries, non-editorial news, music, and science.

Their YouTube channels are also top notch. Spacetime, Storied, Eons, Terra, Origins, Be Smart... all gold.

Man I love Spacetime and Eons. I have watched almost all of spacetime. I wish there were a spacetime hardcore where they threw as much math at me as possible. Awesome channels

Shout-out the PBS passport. $5 a month and I get all the antiques roadshow I can handle.

So true. PBS has always been a reliable place to find something decent to watch when all else fails I feel. Not to mention no commercials! or very little if any.

It's the tv version of NPR
