I just found this show. I cant even begin to say how absolutely I love this concept. Two smart guys advancing science concepts with 3 funny people. Genius!
This was one of the greatest episodes of a talk show ive ever seen. Such an awesome balance of good comedy and intriguing scientific subject matter, really amazing how they all pulled this off. They are all geniuses in their own fields :)
Eugene mirman is the shit. he kept the whole thing alive yet gets no credit on the title or the coments. he's also really Good on bobs burgers. Eugene you rock!
Dynamite format, combining science and comedy. I'd like to see serio-comic discussions on lots of topics. This was handled well by both the professors and the comedians. Never heard of Eugene Mirman, and now I like him.
Everyone always asks how do we get people excited and engaged about science. This video shows the perfect formula, two scientists and two to three intelligent comedians together talking about science. It's genius and takes subjects that might be abit dry and makes them very entertaining
When Sarah said " i bet you get so much Pudding" and then calls out that she was told not to cuss.. this is why she is one of my favorite comics of all time. Just pure 100% classic Sarah.
The best part about this (minus all the fascinating science) is how the scientists are more entertaining than the comedians. I'm a fan of sarah silverman too :D
“Can I ask you a question? Mars is red. How do we know that’s not all blood?” The great thing about Jim Gaffigan is, that joke is all about the cadence, timing, and delivery. It shouldn’t even be funny yet it kills the room 😂
The jokes and expressions of Eugene are priceless. So bad we missed the fallen cup at 13:58 XD.. OMG!! At 14:10 he just realizes he dropped it and looks at Sarah and is about to show her and then he keeps it to himself. LOL
Gaffigan and Mirman interrupted just the right about of times, and brought the funny big time. Silverman was respectful and pretty funny too. People on the comments love to piss and moan because they hate their lives I guess.
These fora (plural in Latin for Forum) present complex scientific topics in terms the layman can understand - and produce the kind of questions that most people would be afraid to ask aloud for fear of being laughed at. We need more of this!
I must be a nerd. I watched this video in a Jim Gaffigan search and liked it! Not a Sarah Silverman fan, but this was good. My award to quickest wit goes to Eugene though!
I looked up DeGrasse Tyson on Wikipedia and learned he'd attended one of the same NYC elementary schools I did. No guff, we actually had a mini-planetarium in the basement, and I wonder if it existed when he had attended that school. We also had the occasional trip to the Hayden planetarium as kids as a day trip. I always remember the excitement about math and science I had as a kid, and am so thankful for teachers and professors in my life who shared that skill and excitement with us kids. Thanks, Neil.
You know Neil deGrasse Tyson is the smartest guy on stage because he's also the one sweating the most. His brain is burning thru way more energy to be smart AND funny AND moderate the discussion.
Strange fact about you, but good to know. You may just be ignoring the fact that NDT, as a scientist, hangs around with nothing but white people all the time. Not replying to you anymore.
Oh I see, so "as a scientist" is your code for "he's too civilised to be around other black people"? Only white people can be scientists? What about famous black scientists like leading astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, for example?
How deep is your bug, how deep is your bug How deep is your bug? I really mean to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of radiation Breaking us down when it all should let us be We belong to you and me
Ok. This is for all the over excited nerds, that keep rambling about the comedians. This format is designed, ingeniously i add, for the 90% of Americans that are ignorant to the world of science. Neil deGrasse Tyson is using this as a tool to inspire and educate the part of the human race that is holding us back from furthering our future endeavors. He is the only scientists I know of, other than I guess Bill Nye, trying to bridge the gap. He should be applauded over his efforts, not spewing nerd rage over Sarah Silverman's pussy jokes. If you have a problem with this, you're part of the problem, not the solution.
I liked the video a lot but honestly I feel sorry for Dave Grinspoon (the NASA Geologist), cause I think this event might have been an overload for him. Not every scientist can be great with audiences like Tyson or Nye. Or good at handling a conversation where they get interrupted a lot.
So true man. So much respect for NDT and others for trying different ways to educate people. All a fire needs is a few sparks and it will eventually ignite and burst to flame. Neil is the flint!
Neil deGrasse Tyson is one of the few Scientists who is able to take on the public media and looks good on it. There are only a few who are able todo this, most scientists sadly fail extremely on TV or any other medias.
I love this session, learning and laughing about Mars its great. Thanks to Mr. Neil for making this kind of talks happend, we (humanity) need more of this space culture delivered in a funny way, humor and science its just awesome. Cheers from Mexico. Daniel.
So brilliant to add comic releif to discussions like this. Its like combining art with science, biology and so on. Taking something most people would find boring and adding the complete opposite makes for a very e tertaining and informative discussion.
This isn't the video to watch if you really want to learn something. The panel is ferocious about inserting their "funny" one-liners that at the halfway point, I had to turn to something else. I guess I just wasn't in the mood for a comedy show that used topics in science as the target of the jokes. Usually, with panels involving Neil deGrasse Tyson, you can expect a certain amount of levity, and that's fine. But, when the jokes and ad libs become the center point of the discussion, it's better to tune this in when you're in the mood for rather low-brow humor.
When Sarah Silverman dropped her mic, I was hoping it was for good. OH SNAP. Just kidding, she isn't that bad. I agree with you that most of the jokes were shallow and didn't offer much in the way of profound thought.
The target audience is not for the intelligentsia. Its trying to appeal to a larger audience. This could actually be a hit on prime time tv. Neil has long lamented about the ignorant electorate. We need to educate the masses about all things science. What better way is there. I submit this is spot on. Love it. You go Neil! NGT is my hero!
Disagree. But then again I wasn't watching this to be informed as a main goal. I DID learn a thing or two about Mars, though. And it was funny, good puns, etc. I'd watch it again!
***** Do you feel like laughing or actually learning something? This video feels like some kind of comedy routine, which is really just fine with me. I enjoy laughing as much as the next person; however, it's not the piece you want to play if you want to learn some serious science. Are you unable to make the distinction?
Grinspoon and deGrass hold up well to comedic feedback. The talk about metric numbers at 14:23-15:50 including deGrasse out in space was memorable. Smart of him to talk in imperial numbers thereafter. Sagan was an advocate of unmanned exploratory missions for best use of limited funding. "We're not talkin' just crazy people."
I would have liked this better had more of the comedians' interruptions been more relevant to what the scientists were trying to say, [instead of] throwing them off of their train of thought in typical ADHD fashion. Though they did have a few good ones esp. at the beginning, but those were kinda tee-ball setups anyway -- You almost couldn't miss them, that is, if you were paying attention.
I cringed through 10 minutes of the video watching a group of comedy rejects on stage. Neil with his fake nervous laughter sweating bullets was completely obvious that he was uncomfortable.
Napoleonicus Fair enough, but it was a play on words as they are talking about the stars and planets and the sun is a star. Also if you want to take my comment and present a logical analysis them being on the sun and their sweat glands drying up would be the last of their worries don't you think?
No it's already been established that this is an interview being done on the surface of the sun where it is approximately 10,000 degrees. Try to pick up on social queues and you're already late to the party Napoleonicus beat you to it at least he was the first one to say it now you're just boring me with your plagarism
I don't even know what to say to that. If you didn't get it then it's not my fault. Not understanding something someone writes does not make the person who wrote it stupid. Some might argue that in comparison to the person who wrote it, it is you who is dumb. Really all you had to do was read a bit further down where someone already made your mistake. Oh well you know for next time, don't read half of something and then try to troll on it you might look dumb as a consequence.
This was fun to watch! I'd like it if the comedians had a bit more time to chime in and Sarah seems like she's at a loss for words most of the time, but there was good chemistry here and I think more segments like this will go smoother.
New law whereas we are smart people, we declare that the United States does not have to get involved in countries where limbs are cut off women don’t have rights and gays are hanged
The really smart people know that NASA is mostly military/defense-oriented. Just most of it is not obvious to most. Neil wrote a book about it, even. About time there's a popular book addressing the issue. It's something I've been saying since I was a kid in the 80s. I'm going to go out on a limb, though, and guess that his book just scratches the surface, but I haven't read it yet.
@@pauldavidgraham6301 Yes, it was a joke. One of her funniest jokes is, "I was molested by my doctor, which is so bittersweet for a Jewish girl". What I was saying is that she was saying "No Jews on Mars" because the whole planet is a desert. The Bible claims the Jews wandered 40 years between Egypt and Israel/Palestine. The whole thing was an obvious joke, genius.
Richard Strong Ok so in 2035 we will begin to send people to mars. Yet technology will be so advance in 5 years we will be able to send our thoughts and perceptions to mars. Scientist are already building a computer that understands dreams and is able to reproduce images and videos of our brain. And because this is not science fiction. We are now able to astral project our minds in a group to visit other places with a precise memory reproduction of 70 %. But hey.....I'm just a cook.........
schuyler sterling I would categorize it more of a Virtual trip , our advance camera and computation hardware are getting smarter, its in the hopes to encourage men and women to visit mars, or built a ship that could take us there fast enough. Meanwhile were stuck with rovers , GPS , iradium and advanced imaging sensors.
Why do I read your posts and have visions of Terminator?? It is not that easy to put human intelligence and problem solving into a computer.. We have machines that can imitate human behavior, we do not have a machine that can perform brain surgery by itself..

you laugh and learn... its the best
First time I've seen this. Loved seeing two extremely intelligent scientists counting on their fingers!!!!
Yea it gave some hope for me
Jim Gaffigan is so awesome.
Everyone always asks how do we get people excited and engaged about science. This video shows the perfect formula, two scientists and two to three intelligent comedians together talking about science. It's genius and takes subjects that might be abit dry and makes them very entertaining
I watch everything Jim, Sarah and Neil do....thank you for saving me time with this video.
This one is the Best one I've seen so far! I've never laughed so hard listening to a science lecture.
When Sarah said " i bet you get so much Pudding" and then calls out that she was told not to cuss.. this is why she is one of my favorite comics of all time. Just pure 100% classic Sarah.

"SHE'S GONNA KILL HERSELF!!! CLAP!!!" - Best improv in a split second ever!!
Neil DeGrasse Is a Rockstar
Is he drunk here?!?
hes a fool
If being disrespectful and talking over your guests is what you consider a rock star I guess I can't stand him
The best part about this (minus all the fascinating science) is how the scientists are more entertaining than the comedians.

How have I not seen this before today???? Two of my favorite things: cosmology and comedy.
More of these please
“Can I ask you a question? Mars is red. How do we know that’s not all blood?” The great thing about Jim Gaffigan is, that joke is all about the cadence, timing, and delivery. It shouldn’t even be funny yet it kills the room 😂
Lol that nasa dude was not having it.
Love his comic books!
I think he would have been better about it if it wasn't hot. The sweat is just dripping off of him and neil
I think hes from JPL, PASADENA
Gaffigan sound like the sharpest comedian on the stage. I love his stand up obsevations as long as he doesn't over emphasize the "voice" he does.
The jokes and expressions of Eugene are priceless. So bad we missed the fallen cup at 13:58 XD.. OMG!! At 14:10 he just realizes he dropped it and looks at Sarah and is about to show her and then he keeps it to himself. LOL
This is so awesome that I had to find it and watch again....and again...Thanks!

Gotta love when Neil's moustache gets angry ! xD
What a dream come truuu!! Neil,sarrah, annd jim together on one stage! Luv u neil!
My favorite Star Talk!!
Jim: “Mars is red. How do we know that’s not all blood?” That question shouldn’t be so funny, but I died laughing.

When Neil said, “What’s up with that.” I thought he was going into the Saturday Night Live routine. "What’s up with that!, what’s up with that!"
Mars is populated entirely by robots.
