I understand the dude needs to sell himself, but "hey I'm _____ and I worked at NASA!" isn't really that different from "hey I'm _____ and I went to Harvard!"

I don't care. He is selling Nasa as much as he is himself.

Maybe not to you, but to me (and I think others) it is quite different. And he gets people excited about science and NASA that way too.

Same. I am sure he has good reasons. Might just be playful ones.

I avoid those "made for youtube" type channels with a bunch of kitschy experiments. I was just surprised he has a legit resume.
