General "How stuff works" video capsules, blog or podcast?

Hey, I'd really like to spend a few minutes (15-30 minutes per day) learning about how random stuff works. Anything from electronics to cars to specific pieces of technologies, to industrial processes, etc.

I'm posting in this section because I don't have access to the Learning Material one.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

Also, there are plenty of television channels dedicated to that such as "Discovery channel" etc... Lots of interesting documentaries there.
 


There is a channel on YouTube called EngineeringExplained. (http://m.youtube.com/user/EngineeringExplained)

Despite the name he only talks about cars. Start at the beginning of his playlist and see if you like what you're hearing.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
