I enjoy numberphile, but that is just bad.
Certain effective presentational styles are not transferable between subject matters.

I'm not so sure
I enjoy watching people who do something well, doing what they do well.
Largely, those people have back-stories, and sometimes they show us those.
I think you're being too hard on him - you don't want to watch non-maths related content..? Fine.
But I think this is better than Gryff-Rhys Jones (or, god forbid, Portillo) on a train to Somewhere Forrin espousing for the sake of it.
Yeah yeah, I'm not setting the bar too high,I know.....

I like Portillo on the train. Giff Gaff Jones has not held my attention for more than a minute since the eighties.

A lot of people like you are into trains and Conservatism.
I shall never forgive Portillo for agreeing to do "Things We Forgot To Remember." He didn't just agree to do it, which would be bad enough, but he gleefully asked that stupid cunting question more than twice per episode.
There are a number of other things I shall never forgive him for, like homophobic hypocrisy and all the other nasty shit he supported in the 90s. But come on. Things We Forgot To Remember? Cuuuuuuuunt.
