Good idea. Will do

Kathy makes science and history come alive. I would loved to have been in her classes.

I'm hooked! Yours may be the history channel for electrical nerds.

I'm a retired engineer and have found your videos most interesting. I've learned many bits of background I had not learned back in school. I particularly like the progression of science that your videos provide. Nicely done!

Great to hear the history of the discovery of the electron. My last name is Rutherford and as an electrical engineer have found myself drawn to learn more about Lord Rutherford. Enjoyed your video on the works of his Professor.

I have only one thing to say: your explanations and expressions are wonderful. Thanks for making me curious to learn when I have crossed 60 yrs of life. Cheers!

Find the explanations great, what makes it special is you also go into why, how, and what motivated the inventors. Awesome.

I knew that J.J. Thomson was a trail blazing scientist, but it was very interesting to hear that he mentored so many Nobel laureates. Science history is fascinating. Great video.

With all due respect to JJ Thomson, I'm just glad we ultimately choose electrons over corpuscles.

I thought Newton used the term “corpuscle”, too, only this was for the particles of light.

I lived and worked in Cambridge for a while, and it was always a thrill to drink in the same pubs where the discoverers of the electron, the structure of DNA and so much more sat and talked. Not to mention that Maxwell started the Cavendish, so it's holy ground indeed. But hey, lay off the humble plum pudding. It's part of every English childhood, and once you've learned to digest it it's actually quite nice.

Dear Cathy, You are so wonderful! You possess the vitality and focus to bring dusty sheafs of scientific tracts to LIFE!

I just recently found your channel and really enjoy it. I remember duplicating a number of the classic experiments in a physics class back in high school (early 1970s). It was fascinating then and it still is. By the way, I did notice an error. To be going “almost a third of the speed of light” would mean the electrons were traveling 60,000 miles PER SECOND, not per hour.

Kathy i love u, glad u came back. Loved the Thompson story.

Gonna have to binge more of your stuff Cathy. As a former Math and Physics double major this feels like all the gaps of why from the books that has been stripped out.

I truly couldn't stop laughing at people being tortured with plum pudding. As an antipodean (Australian), I was tortured with plum pudding every Xmas and New Years. Now, as an old man, I actually look forward to it each year. I love your sense of humour, Kathy 🤣

Your videos always make me happy! I love to hear the stories of how it happened and who did what.

No words to express the thanks to you kathy for such wonderful contribution by bringing the fascinating history of all scientific events with such a simplicity. Thanks a ton

Just compliments… I enjoy listening in. I have spent 50 years in the industrial world and have heard all the names, you so kindly mention. Never understood the stories behind the names. Thank you for your research and sharing with us.

Hi. I just discovered your channel... and I LOVE it. It's just so adorable when you use modern vocabulary talking abut historical figures, and the little jokes you put in here and there. I like the fact that the videos have this "amateur look", that shows dedication and geeky passion, and are not full professional and monetization oriented. I'm binge watching your videos right now. Also kudos for your pronunciation of Skłodowska's name.

These are great videos. The stories behind the discoveries are so interesting and add a real human element. Your presentation style is perfect - keep it up!😁

Congratulations for your great channel Kathy!!! I love how objectively you portray characters often misunderstood like the great Nikola Tesla. I really appreciate your dedication in researching and sharing all these historical curiosities !!!! This also really helps to realize that these were human beings and sometimes not so brilliant, when trying to explain their findings.....

Loved this one, Kathy. Of course I did. My career is constructed on the cathode ray tube and all its derivatives. In fact, I was working on one designed in 1939 today. Most recently, I successfully got pictures out of an authentic Farnsworth image dissector. I love physics and science too! Thanks for your channel. You rock.

This is funny that you mention a Farnsworth image detector because in 3 to 4 more videos I’m finally (finally) going to do my video on Philo Farnsworth. Hey, maybe we could do a bit of a collaboration. Shoot me an email at KathyLovesPhysics(AT)gmail.com if you are interested.

I rarely comment, but thank you so much for this! This is an interesting, well-illustrated, and very clear video to watch!! You really gave us an insight of what was going on in Thomson's mind, and this is exactly what I needed!

These are the best videos ever. Love the history and characters in them. Thank you Kathy!

I'm subscribed, and now I'm spending all day watching your videos.

For years I have been searching for an video which actually combines pure physics with contemporary history your videos make that reality thank you very much for that. Love from India

Kathy....you're awesome! Thanks!

Wow! Your Chanel is exactly what I was looking for! The story of the experiments, the conclusions and then contradictions which led to better and better understanding.

So interesting to find out that these giants in physics weren't born with a silver spoon in their mouths! Or had intuitive insight at all times. You convey their truly humble beginnings as well as their brilliant observations, their spats, their loves and their humanity (gifts and faults) that we all have! And make it all so entertaining! Thx so much!
