At the end, he should also add similar qualifiers to "world's biggest thinkers".  Because I haven't noticed a lot of BigThink videos in foreign languages from foreign luminaries.

I am often troubled by the tendency of Americans to use sweeping statements that make us seem like self-centered know-it-alls. There is much to be learned from other cultures!

That said, I hope BigThink expands quickly and offers truly global perspectives (subtitled in English if necessary) in the future.
