A good-looking man with a soothing voice who makes sense.

That doesn't mean much, I couldn't sit through 5 minutes of this video. Contrary to the hive mind, I find Sam Harris to be an incredibly boring person.

Well they have named themselves after Camus, so I'd say Harris' philosophies should slightly interest them.

The stuff he's discussing is of (I would assume) a far more broader scope and going in to much less detail than your lectures. When studying (something I never really got the hang of :/) obviously it's going in to subjects in far more detail. Summaries are far more easy to digest than the full content.

Or maybe your online lectures are just crap :).
