All the episodes of Scientific American Frontiers, a science program that ran for 15 seasons on PBS television from 1990 to 2005, can be streamed from the following website:

This was the show hosted for most of its run by Alan Alda (who is probably most famous for being in the television series M*A*S*H). I wasn't watching much television while this science series was on the air, and so I only saw a few episodes (if that), but from what I remember from the show, I enjoyed it and thought Alda made for a good host.

Season 8, episode 2 is titled "Beyond Science" and deals with pseudoscience, so it may touch on our area of exploration... ...lol... It supposedly discusses "zero point energy" and stuff. I've not yet watched it. The file seems to be too big for streaming over my DSL line and so you may need higher bandwidth to watch it that way.

Although the web page is only set up for streaming, I can download the video using my youtube-dl program, which I'm doing now. So, I intend on watching it later.
I found the proper link to use with my youtube-dl program using my browser's "View/Page Info/Media" tab - and after clicking on the season's episode I was interest in.
Anyway, I hope others find this of interest.
ETA: After having watched most of the "Beyond Science" episode now, I can say that in the segment about zero point energy, Alan Alda talks to Hal Puthoff and Scott Little of the Institute for Advanced Studies.
I believe we have at least one member here who has been in touch with Hal Puthoff, so seeing him and the inside of his lab, I would suspect, might be of interest to some.
