I enjoyed it, but it’s still tl;dw to too many people for me to forward. I’d have to pick specific starting times for the subsets that would apply to different slices of my audience (e.g., the start of the “8 projects” segment). I can think of only one person (my brother, a movie buff, C-SPAN watcher and infratructure nerd) who would appreciate the whole thing.
Several potential recipients would be turned off by the cutesy Weekend at Bernie* references, or at least would be confused by them.
Personally, I think the Australien Government videos are much more watchable.

At 19 minutes in, Rollie lets slip his energy illiteracy. He equates a 250 MW capacity Fort Bend solar farm with the 250 MW capacity Petra Nova coal plant. The solar farm is going to have much lower capacity factor.

Right, 240 MW nameplate capacity, not 250 MW.

I wouldn’t call that much lower, though.
