And the (otherwise excellent) channel is supposed to soon post an adv... I mean informer... I mean "exclusive documentary" about "repeat after me we're totally not a scam - we just play one on YouTube" fusion startup Helion.

Which I'm going to watch, because even though everything I hear about this company gives me insane Theranos vibes... Well, if they pull it off... They might light a bulb with fusion in my lifetime.

The Helion approach seems plausible to me. Can you point me towards some of the sources that give you vibes?

A recent episode on Matt Ferrel's Undecided [1]

(And I though I had seen a similar segment on "Answer with Joe", but I can't find it.)

None of those would be opposable source, of course - there won't be any until they open a plant, publish data, etc...

In the meantime, I see a hype cycle brewing, and it makes me a bit uncomfortable - but, we'll see.
