The Coulomb Force and Newton's Law of Gravity look the same.

Good point. Ok, but as two particles approach one another, gravity and EM approach parity.

PBS Spacetime, Vertasium and Suspicious0bservers is pretty much all I watch. If there's something I want to dig more, I usually look at the wikipedia page and leave it at that. This is the opposite of boring to me.

My point exactly.
They're probably easy to consider experts in the field. Matt (PBS Spacetime) and Derek (Veritasium) have PhDs in physics, but I'm not familiar with Suspicious 0bservers.
What they bring to the table is stuffy experts tooting their own horns to a lot of people.

What you'd bring is a very down-to-Earth understanding that lacks all the stuffiness and pretense of higher learning.
IDK. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like there's an audience for that.

I'm not trying to convince you to do it if you don't want to, though. Just putting it out there that it could be fun and maybe in the long run also earn you a buck or 2.
(Or whatever... you don't call them "bucks" do you?)

Good point. Ok, but as two particles approach one another, gravity and EM approach parity.

Perhaps at the event horizon, gravity and EM are unified.

Maybe. Not under "normal" conditions, but at an event horizon... maybe.

I'm pretty sure no one knows how GR and QM come together.

I really shouldn't simplify things down to Newton and Maxwell when we're talking GR and QM. That was kinda dumb. It's a good approximation, but we're far from the "low energy" physics regime where they are effectively just as good. There are more complicated ways to compare the relative strengths of the forces, but they all agree that gravity is pretty useless on the particle scales. Quantum Electrodynamics and GR are both going to have to give a little to try to really understand what you're hypothesizing. Maybe that "give" is a unification of forces that many speculate.
