PBS Digital Studios is sponsoring a show making its return to the internet. The Good Stuff, which began back in 2013 and is hosted by YouTube celebrity Craig Benzine (known as the WheezyWaiter to online video fans), launched its newest episode on May 18, 2015.
Episodes of The Good Stuff, which each focus on a different theme, are split into separate videos contained in an overarching playlist. The first four-part episode of the series explores everything about sleep, including its history, its scientific aspects, and its effects on health. Upcoming episodes will investigate topics like the future of food, thrill seeking, robots, and the phrase “seeing isn’t believing.”
Benzine originally started The Good Stuff because he liked the format of radio shows such as This American Life and RadioLab. These shows talked about one theme or topic over the course of several segments which were part of a single episode. So Benzine looked for sponsors to help him make a web series version of the unique format.
“Google provided funding for the first 10 episodes of The Good Stuff in 2013, but when funding ran out, Craig approached PBS Digital Studios to see if they would be interested in continuing the show. And they were!” said Matt Weber, producer of The Good Stuff, in an email.
The Good Stuff has nine more episodes planned, and a new episode/playlist will be available on the second Monday of every month on the series’ dedicated YouTube channel.
