You’re looking at it wrong. He isn’t saying those things for people who already know them. He’s a teacher. His job is to transmit the same enthusiasm he has to someone else who is just hearing a thing for the first time. I don’t get smug from him beyond the confidence of knowing what he said is interesting and true.

Wow! I’m have a real Baader-Meinhof phenomenon thing going on! Seen a new fun fact on these little ones a few days ago, fell down a rabbit hole reading a bunch of new stuff on 'em. Then yesterday, a podcast I listen to did a segment on them, right after an intro about their Baader-Meinhof effects reported by listeners to their stories. Thanks!!
