Interesting! At 5:39, I see Abi was still going by the surname "Lennard" at this time. I'm watching through all of the videos on this channel in chronological order looking for when she changed it to "Thorn".

Fuck that's so sad. "One of my goals as an educational resource is to have access to academic papers." Ugh, why does knowledge have to be gated off so much -.-

Man I don't have access to the journals anymore either, I am trying to research cannabis for pain and I luckily downloaded all the journals from that time the subject but I want to know more. I tried to go to graduate school on this and apparently this is super verboten in the US. It sucks because I may have found a cure for a rare disease using cannabis.

I think I had a mini-heart attack watching the last 15 seconds of this video.

a way to get academic resources: ematriculate at a german, danish or dutch university, you dont have to pay anything and if you fail theyll throw you out after 6 months. 6 months where you can have the resources you need.

I think I was one of your first subscribers. I've really enjoyed all your videos over the past three years. I don't always interact but I always appreciate the time and effort you put into you all of these video. Can't wait to see where it goes next. Best of luck at drama school too. 🙂

hello. If you try to get access to academic materials, then instead of writing to universities, write to concrete people, researchers, phd students, lower ranks, they have access and they can share, and they know what youtube is. Good luck. Also you can enroll in a phd programs which are free, lot of them in Europe

I had a very similar experience with my intro to philosophy. Decided between it and psychology because it fit my schedule better. Had a phenomenal prof and happened to be pretty good at it too.

I am so happy about the fact that there are people who are as interested in philosophy as I am.Thank you so much for your great videos :)!

Do you think you could do a video on what gives human life worth/value? I understand the Utilitarian perspectives for example, but a lot of the other theories confuse me.
Great job with the videos 😀

Whooop my question! Thanks for everything, this channel has been a great way to pretend that I'm revising

That's a real shame that universities and academic institutions won't help out. It would be an excellent idea.

Really like your work, to get academic papers you should try Scihub (the ".x" bit changes frequently so just type Scihub into Google). Alternatively you can try #icanhazpdf on twitter. Or you can email the lead authors, they are usually pretty receptive

Holy shit you answered my question!!
You have some good genetics then; it's probably nice to know that if you ever did feel the need to up your strength, you have a good build for it!
I'm sorry if it didn't feel serious, if you looked my reply to the twitter comment was that I really enjoy your content!
But thanks anyway, my first youtube feature x

Hey Olly! I love your content, it's really interesting. I'm someone who tends to think about those big philosophical questions, and your videos have taught me so much. Thank you for being a very cool person.

3:02 *English high school. We do Highers and Advanced Highers in Scotland, and I assume it's different in Wales.

I'd die to see your video about X-Men! 😀 I'm a huge fan of the comics, wonder if you ever heard of these stories/arcs cause I think they would def be worth digging into:
god loves, man kills
the apocalypse solution

Congratulations! I've only been watching for a few months now, but I love you content. I try to share it with anyone I know would be interested. I hope you have many more years to come.

Aww, thank you for answering mine =) I'm really excited to see how being at drama school will affect your YTing ways, and where your journey will take you. Who knows – by the time you've graduated, maybe my career as writer/director will be at a stage where we end up doing a project together!

Well, should there be some paper you want/need, I'd gladly use my access to get it for you. Besides, I tend to spend my free time reading burrowing down whatever philosophical rabbit hole I particularly fancy at the moment anyways, so I can just get some more reading material that way. 😉
Any chance you'll end up doing anything on the philosophy of physics? Math?
