Yeah no doubt. Mr. Krauss talks way too much about his own personal whatever when its his GUEST that is suppose to be in the spotlight. He's not a great interviewer but who is when they start out. He'll get better over time and improve I'm certain. Sabine is a great guest and Its great to hear from her on another level from her own channel. It did seem to put her off at times but their conversation at times was also very very good so.... he's just rough around the edges socially it appears. That will change with time. Also the 'agist' stuff talking down to her 'you're young' blah blah... like, "does this really need said?" "does it need said multiple times?" Do you need to talk down to someone you've asked on your show? Do you just talk down to people in general? I think he'll work these things out over time but yes, they are distracting.

@@Cinnabuns2009 Or not.

@@Cinnabuns2009 He seemed off in this interview. Sabine is a great guest, maybe he was nervous let's see next time if the jitters are gone.

He likes more to present himself. I'm his age and I like his political positions, but instead of telling Sabine about three times, that she's too young for deeper understanding, he should ask, if he's too old in that case.

lol

Not just the scientific community but academe in general. :-)

Well said, I agree with you. She is so brilliant and besides that she is courageous, it's not easy to do what she does.

That's because she debunks real scientists and they probably get pissed off

Rebel is needed for scientists also, to push science forward. All the others, they cheers 'yes big bang... yes..dark matter.. yes... dark energy', it makes me sick.

@@chompchompnomnom4256 You're suggesting that she's not a "real scientists"?

Irritatingly captivating?? Like you’re captivated to the point of irritation? I don’t understand this concept.

@@joshualaureano7062 they're still working on a concept definition for the term.

Her best song, in my opinion, is "Schrödinger's cat". She earns the Noble price in literature for that, if Bob Dylan earned it. If, in opposite to Lawrence Krauss, she finds out, that DarkMatter is a superfluid, she will be the first woman with two Noble prices. Good luck for her.

Nobel prizes

Well,Krause isn't a bully.

Nope. No balls. She is a woman. She has courage; no balls necessary.

The greatest

All the low hanging fruits where picked. Could be that its simply not possible to progress, as uncovering the next "layer" in the law of nature would require experiments that cant be build by any reasonable measure.

Great to have you as a part of our community!

@@TheOriginsPodcast I'm learning about you from this too! Subscribed.

sometimes that's all the standard model apologists have.

Ironic given Krauss said nothing is something.

Quite right!

@richardrosecky1574 How can you admire a man that has a long string of sexual misconduct allegations against him going back years and years? This guy is a creep and a scumbag.

This is why I can’t stand his podcast. He always talks more than his guests. I listened for maybe 20 minutes before I got tired of hearing Lawrence talk about himself

Yeah, several times I wondered if he was nervous. (Perhaps because he disagreed with some of her views and felt uncomfortable saying this to her face in front of an audience?) I loved that she stayed totally calm and didn't at all get thrown off by whatever it was.

@@joshualaureano7062 it took me 12

Wasn't Sabine interviewing Lawrence?

@@richardgomes5420 Duh, of course. How did I miss that!

Fuck you sir louis this is exactly what i didn't want to hear. I KNOW THAT MY YEARS OF STUDYING MATH THEN PHYSICS WILL JUST LEAD TO UNEMPLOYMENT. that's why i keep on lagging behind and not going to the proper end of it. Jokes aside you are so on point... There that dude i know on yt -louis seems like a french name maybe you are and know him- he's the largest science comunicator on yt in french, science etonnante (suprising science) and once he talked about how he cqme to be where he is. Was so fucking depressing... dude went though the golden path to being a theoretical physisist, aced every part of it did an insane thesis -i swear it was chinese for me after 5 y of theoretical physics and a year of QM- on (mousse de spin not positive on translation), spin foam some obscure quantum notion in the context of studying quantum (REALLY UNSURE ON THAT TRANSLATION) loop gravity (gravite quantique a boucle) which is as you probably know a more obscure contender to string theory. Long story short the numbers are out of my ass i don't remember the details but the general idea is there, but out of like 1000 physocs students graduating after their theoretical physics phd that year in this country -most i guess would be like him interested in say... reaserching theoretical physics? - there were litterally count on your 2 hands numbers of positions available as assistant professor which is basically the only way to do fundamental physics and reaserch for reaserchings sake. He was in the top 10 or 20 something like that and still no position doing reaserching WHEN YOU'RE LITTERALLY PART OF THE TOP 1% OUT OF A POPULATION WHO IS ENTIRELY COMPOSED OF POST DOCS. ITS insane. He never got to do fundamental physics, ended up as a very successful dude, huge gift to science communication, on every topic, also has like non profit stuff going on, oh yeah he also is director of the R&D department of some big company who works on inventing novel materials so is still doing pretty theoretical physics or rather doing proper reaserching, just not on what he wants. People will pay for you to make vanta black or weird granular stuff (btw he did a 5 min video on what sand is and i was blown away that shit is not right you should not be allowed to pick and choose properties from liquids and solids) or non newtonian fluids. But who cares about bose einstein condensate or dark energy or transparent matter (refuse to call that dark makes no sense who tf named that, the trolls who tried to dismiss black holes by well calling them black holes? Ok i m angry now over and out no ending to this

Krauss knows that she is a wannabe. He is too much of a gentleman to say it out loud. I am not. If you don't believe me... read her publications. There is no there there. ;-)

She might be thinking. This is why I prefer an ongoing text conversation as opposed to speaking live in person. I like to think over something before responding and it's not practical in live conversation like this.

Well, I don't think it was as much not seeing eye to eye, as it was not seeing the details of what each others views are formed of. No one was stubborn or accusatory though. That's the cool thing about good scientists, they are open to new understanding and viewpoints. You can tell that some things are not easy to get across in just a few sentences, given all of the details and nuances, but as long as they try, it will be good and worthwhile conversation.

And he said, and it sounded like a jab, that he was writing books while she was just a baby.

He only reveals how far he must travel to catch up with her. 😂😅

Sabine, by questioning current dogma, she is conducting science, not "challenging" science. Science progresses by finding new interpretations that are based on logic and empirical data.

a bit pedantic but she is challenging what is commonly accepted and that's good for science. I don't know what experiments she conducts herself but she's great for all the other field of science challenges she makes.@@granthurlburt4062

And skip like 50 commercials

If you don’t get wiser with age, then you’ve stopped growing.

A serial sexual harasser, allegedly, on top.

And yet she seems quite patient and pleasant....It's funny he describes her as a "contrarian" when he is much moreso than her....projection I suppose. His questions strike me as shallow and self absorbed....what is his point? Her greater grasp of philosophical context is obvious...

How many licks does it take to give Sabina my ways of ecstasy. She will never know.

Exactly! she represents what science is about ..

That is the definition of a contrarian. A person who opposes or rejects popular opinion.

I view "contrarian" as slightly pejorative - arguing for the sake of arguing. Sabine is independently minded. When she opposes convention I would say she argues despite the popularity of the opposing view, not because of the popularity of the opposing view. YMMV.

@@guest_informant I have always viewed contrarian as non-pejorative

For better understanding it's good to read Sabine's book LOST IN MATH

Hope you’ve heard of physicist Lisa Randall … if not, now you have.

I think beauty and ugliness are only considerations and have no other basis in fact. In other words: beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Elon Musk: the thing is to be less wrong.

Haha! That about the squared speed of light exceeding the speed of light was a good funny joke. And what about the speed of light squared twice in the Einstein Gravitational Constant used in his Field Equations??

up to minute 18 so far nice interesting interview. make that 26, hope to hear more later.

that's what happens when you work on something for so long that it becomes too important to be worthless and you start making excuses un-consciously....

What you mean?

Its a heuristic when searching for new laws. And since it helped researchers find new things in the past, many will want to hang onto that heuristic. It should just be clear to them, that its not a law.
