Came across "Leonard Susskind Teaches You “The Theoretical Minimum” for Understanding Modern Physics".
There also appears to be a book -- one reviewer mentioned that getting the errata had been very helpful for them.
For the past decade, Leonard Susskind, one of America’s pre-eminent physicists, has taught a series of six courses in Stanford’s Continuing Studies program. The series “explores the essential theoretical foundations of modern physics,” helping lifelong learners (like you) attain the “theoretical minimum” for thinking intelligently about modern physics.
the lectures ... available to a global audience on YouTube and iTunes.
Susskind’s popular lectures found a new home of sorts with the launch of The Theoretical Minimum, a new web site that presents the six courses in a way that’s neat, clean and easy to navigate. The site also offers a short text summary of each lecture, plus related reference materials.
