Anybody else miss documentaries? And don’t point me to the documentary section of Netflix, or even worse off traditionally documentary-laden sources like the History Channel which is now filled with infotainment – content meant to entertain and inform, but I’d say, objectively, mostly to entertain.

Checking out What The Health – labelled a documentary but undoubtedly a piece of pure infotainment – I found myself staring at my phone trying to figure out if what I was seeing on screen was in fact true.
