Kevin Lieber examines mind-blowing technology, the origins of the things around us, and the amazing in the everyday on Vsauce2.
He explores recreational mathematics on his homemade whiteboard table like The Dot Game That Breaks Your Brain and analyzes paradoxes including explaining once and for all What Is A Paradox?. His own curiosity has led him to some once-in-a-lifetime experiences like shooting a video with National Geographic on the slopes of the Mauna Loa volcano, giving a lecture on the world's largest cruise ship beneath a solar eclipse in the middle of the ocean, and working with cosmology legend Neil Degrasse Tyson.
Vsauce3 covers the real-world science of fictional worlds: books, video games, and movies.

Jake has been a featured speaker at the Tribeca Film Festival, VidCon, and Comic Con among others, but he's most comfortable eating his favorite food, tacos, with his dog, Fajita.
