In this episode I had the pleasure to meet with Neil Degrasse Tyson, who gives me the lowdown his life as a science communicator, the incredible explosion of technology that we're all living through, and the little inspirations that guided his career along the way. It's a fascinating look at what drives one of the most famous science communicators in the world.
You can find Neil's book, A Brief Welcome to the Universe: A Pocket-Sized Tour here:

I love NdT, always have, always will. He can come across as a little elitist some times though. Which is great if he schooling some fools, but in this example I just wish he’d give Joe some credit as a fellow science communicator. Joe’s down-to-earth nature and alignment with his views complements NdT’s mission, so to at times be somewhat flippant and a tad condescending towards Joe is counter-productive. All-in-all this was a great watch though, I’d love a weekly session with these two! ;)

*Great interview! And it was refreshing to see (yet again) Dr. Tyson's humility, and to see and hear just how grounded the man truly is in every aspect of his life. Imagine if everyone, or even just more of our society, was as patient and as accommodating as Dr. Tyson has always been. The long, seemingly torturous intro was well worth your pain! Well done!!*

@nickdavis6676 2 жыл бұрын

The dude is not humble. He is smart but Neil degrasse Tyson is a professional at cutting people off. Sometimes I really want to just listen to the star talk guests. He had the nerve to call out Joe about 'awesome' and then condescend him on his opinions. He is interesting to listen to and explains things well, but he definitely has an ego.

Have to agree with Texas being short on planetariums, as a kid growing up in Texas my first exposure to a planetarium was vacationing in San Diego and going to the MOSH. The moment the lights went off and the planetarium turned on, I was transported off earth lol (I am reminded of being that kid in Texas and playing with my friends out in the country without any light pollution and just being amazed how lively the night sky was. Later in life that experience would be trumped on the surface of the middle of the Atlantic topside on the sub with all running lights off. The sky kissed the oceans horizon and at times felt like we were onboard starship Yamato LOL

I just want to point out joe, i think you felt a bit awkward with the interview because sometimes when NDT gets going he just keeps going and then it's just like "what do i say, when do i butt in, how do i contribute to the conversation" and i just wanna let you know that's how literally all of his interviews go lol. His appearance on rogan was exactly the same, rogan was even getting frustrated that he didn't have a minute to say anything. You did really well and had a good conversation with him, I loved the conversation about the shows, and science communication and such, and as a diehard listener of Star talk i enjoyed your interview with him more than any recent Star talk episode

@@steveflorida8699 Perhaps looking inward we can find a place as vast as looking outward. I would dare to say more vast. That's where I have issue with science that does not come from a holistic view or assumes a hypothetical point of view observing physics. But the spiritual ones should not forget about matter. Yes spiritual enlightenment observes immortality instead of mortality where even the universe dies. I think life is eternal.
