- At the Las Vegas-based Amazing Meeting, Reason magazine's Matt Welch recently sat down with Adam Savage, co-host of the enormously popular and captivating Discovery Channel series MythBusters.
Each week, Savage and Jamie Hyneman, aided by a crew of demolition experts and special effects whizzes, delve into mysteries of the moment: Does anything that happen in a James Bond movie have a basis in reality?; was the moon landing faked?; is there such a thing as "beer goggles"?; and much, more more. As important, they explain the science behind many complicated phenomena and rarely miss an opportunity blow things up real good.
Savage talks about the genesis and success of the show, now in its eighth season, and discusses whether people are becoming more or less skeptical in an increasingly interconnected world. Does the faster flow of information mean the bad crowds out the good?
Approximately 8 minutes. Shot and edited by Dan Hayes.

Adam, you are a smart man. I very much enjoy you and The Hyneman's approach to science, myths, and life in general. Thank you so much for your years of entertainment.
Awesome interview - answers, questions and thanks for cutting short for youtube viewers.
This interview shows what a dynamic man Adam Savage is. In this interview you see how composed and manicured he can be, but on the show he really lets his wild hairs out. He's one interesting guy.
i'm MD and i like Mythbusters so much !!!!
Thanks reason for keeping the interview short and sweet and not trying to drag your politics (even though I support your politics) into the interview. Well done.
"We're not going to run out of stories until people stop believing stupid shit!"
THAT is a quote worth remembering!
Good one!
adam looks so calm and composed..
7:08. WOAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!! Bad Adam! XD
lol i keep thinking "If this is global warming then why is it so cool?!" Same for the winters. They're supposed to be heating up. "If this is global warming then why is it -2 degrees out?!?!?!" LOL!
verryy smart man adam savage, props to myth busters great show.
"We're not going to run out of stories until people stop believing stupid shit..."
Awesome Quote.
Adam looks like a Professor :D
@DSAhmed Here's the GREATEST Adam Savage quote:
"I REJECT YOUR REALITY AND SUBSTITUTE MY OWN"!!!!
On the Discovery Channel? Don't kid yourself.
@GonzoInthefoot that's adorable....and wrong.
why does the interviewer have a 10ft long tie on...
I saw mythbusters prooving that CO2 is responsible for global warming... They failed to notice that increasing amount of CO2 in the air doesn't cause the air to warm up more than some 1 degree.
Big minus from me. Although I like their shows.
Or saying you can't go in space XD
Adam is such an awesome personality, and a fellow atheist :)
I suppose the fact they are seen as a kids show is why they never took on my suggestion of looking into penis enlargement myths. That and possible the fact that cable ad revenues seem to be dependent on products which claim to accomplish that.
Wait, so Seinfeld was wrong??
humanity = what if..
maybe just search the Web - you can write beautiful sentences, so you surely will be able to find more information about physical properties of CO2.
And computer models... well there is a lot of info about them too - you need to dig a little to be able to appreciate the knowledge :-P
@hobojoe722
tonight's the night to see Jamie Hynemann stealing candy from a baby.
And it seems it's not that easy!
@nesterhaus That has been proven a long time ago. If people don't believe in the documentation given already, then they're delusional.
As soon as they're ready to offend the majority of their viewers.
It would be awesome, though.
Yeah and you just took the time to reply...any time you wasted is your own fault.
its a different thing. its not a legend, its a scientifically researched fact.
so just like so u could say about the fact that human population has grown in number threefold for the past 100 years that its not a whole lot..
Holy...CRAP! Adam in this interview...looks JUST like my father did when he was younger. Like they could be brothers!!
Sorry, great interview though!!!
@nesterhaus that shouldn't be too hard...its hardly worth their time.....lets leave that one to any 3rd grade class.
who cares, you just wasted 3 seconds of my life I will never get back.
I think Matt got stuck in the late 80s.
