Have you watched any of Ze Frank's videos? Learning made fun with teenager humor.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_GTIL7AECQ This one's on slime molds, obviously?

Please note that I changed the date of my book launch to the correct date. The talk is on February 19, not Feb. 22. Sorry for that.

Great video! Thanks for the helpful explanation for someone who came through biology long enough ago that no one was talking protists.
