PBS Spacetime's approach was a pair of videos titled "Why String Theory is True" and "Why String Theory is False" and between them that pretty much put it to bed for me. cool math, cool worldbuilding, call me when they make a testable prediction. until then it goes on the scrap pile with aether and phlogiston.
