Numbering note: this series has been re-planned more than once. The produced episodes below (real scripts, narration, and for EP01 real visuals) use their own titles as actually recorded — they do not share a single episode number with the 53-topic research list, whose folder numbering is itself inconsistent across two prior passes. Rather than force a fake unified numbering, both tracks are shown separately, each linking only to what is actually on disk.
