My name is Jon Perry, you may know me from the Stated Clearly YouTube channel where I do science animations intended for use in public classrooms. Because animation is time consuming, and because some issues people have with science, especially evolution, deal with religion and aren't always appropriate for public classroom discussions, I started this second channel to communicate with viewers on a more regular basis.

Here I discuss genetics, evolution, science, and the interplay of science with religion within Western culture. I also do behind the scenes stuff on animation, do silly experiments with my nephew. It's pretty fun. Enjoy!
