Matt O'Dowd on PBS Space Time also has a great way of breaking down really complex theories (especially if you watch a set of presentations in order).

I wonder whether this was due to his habit of regularly re-evaluating his understanding of more advanced concepts from first-principles. If so, that could be a technique to counter the curse of knowledge.
People who understand things who can roll up their sleeves, and get the job done, are a rare breed, this stuff can't be taught.
Later, after you create you can return to Feynman, have a cold-beer, and listen to his lectures and have a good laugh.
Oh, you mean the work Feynman did for which he got the Nobel Prize in Physics?
Good to know that CalTech considers that worthless.
He does write explicitly non-math based works as well, like the (IMO excellent) QED book. But I also have his lectures on computation book here, and I had to leave a good number of problems in it unsolved.
