Learn Hebrew With Subtitles (& What Is Kan, Israel's Public Broadcaster?)

Recently, I've been spending a lot of time watching Kan current affairs programming in order to improve my Hebrew vocabulary. 

But .... what exactly is it?

Kan (כאן) is a brand name for the Israel Public Broadcasting Corporation (IPBC) - which in Hebrew is תאגיד השידור הישראל. (IPBC's branding in Arabic, however, is Makan.)

IPBC was founded in 2017 as the successor organisation to the Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA). It's Israel's state broadcaster and broadcasts a free to air television station called Kan 11. 

Kan has invested a lot of commendable effort in uploading its content to YouTube and manages a variety of channels. I've drawn upon this effort extensively in building my playlist, much of whose content comes from Kan Digital, which tends to add YouTube subtitles (other channels tend to only embed them).

Here are the YouTube playlists which I've built and am currently working through:
