Oversimplified says some nonsense stuff I might look for something that looks a little more serious - or just less biased
Paging I wonder if one of them has recs. Eigen may also have one

Probably you're looking for youtube, but if a book interests, there are sections in the middle of Quigley's Tragedy and Hope that are really really good
lots of like... details on how ww2 winding down led to this weird stalemate situation
hm... i bet there are good lectures..

Possibly just get on a call with and ask questions lol. Donβt let him rant it has to be Socratic mode

Maybe do crash course instead
They have some ideological tilt but it's no where near as bad as oversimplified
