I enjoy the puns and clever jokes. I appreciate the Tidbits character providing lots of little facts that I didn't know. But man, the Benjamin Franklin and Gandhi episode seemed to have a heavy political statement about how stupid the founding fathers of the US were and how wise and perfect Gandhi was. The episode with Isaac Newton and Amelia Earhart was one of the most sexist things I have seen against men. Can you imagine if a man suddenly stopped a female narrator and said "I will not have some faceless woman narrate my life, let me get an awesome modern man to do it instead"? Well, that's what Amelia Earhart does to the male narrator. They continue to put Amelia on a pedestal while making Isaac Newton look like the most selfish person who ever lived. I've been watching this with my son and I'm concerned that he might get a message that his gender is lesser to females even though he's getting a fun history lesson.
