> That guy has a serious gift for explaining stuff

I'd like to challenge this idea.

I don't believe he's more gifted than other people. I strongly believe that the point is he spent a lot of time and effort to get better at explaining stuff.

He contemplated feedback and improved his explanations throughout the years.

His videos are excellent because he poured himself into making them excellent, not because he has a gift.

In my experience the professors who lack this ability do so because they don't put enough effort into it, not because they were born without it.
