I bet Nile's would be as chaotic if he didn't film it as a presentation with a commentary and filmed in real-time with his commentary. In fact, I'd love to see a video from Nile that feels as personal as Cody's. Like Cody brings us along for his journey while Nile presents his journey.
@@attila5221 I've been a subscriber of NileBlue as long as I can remember finding NileRed. So I definitely know the content there, but I'm not sure if you understand what I am trying to say how Cody's feel really personal and like he's taking us along the journey. NileBlue is even less personal and kinda feels like I'm just watching somebody. Which isn't bad. I wish Nigel would go back to making more material either way.
I feel like Cody is a "best of both worlds" between NileRed and Explosions&Fire. Absolutely solid chemistry with high end chemicals and minerals, while also having the "this was not shot in a high end lab" feel. These three channels are the Triforce of awesome in the chemistry space. Love it!
Yes, exactly this :) Explosions&Fire has been on Safety Third podcast a time or two, and NileRed is in nearly all of them. I'm hoping Cody shows up there one day!
NileRed's videos are like school grade educational Cody's videos are educational but just a dude in a garage Tom's videos are fantastic shitposts that occasionally get dangerously close to being educational
This is a really really good way to put it, though i like them all i enjoy E&F and Cody's stuff a bit more i;ll never turn down any vid from any of the 3.
hot take, but I couldn't disagree more. Nigel does cool stuff that is largely safe, and maybe industrially viable, E&F does some of the highest end organic chemistry bullshit I have seen on the internet, and doesn't care how dangerous it is. Cody is a wild west frontiersman that does things out of necessity because its the only way they get done, things are chaotic and dangerous but only because there isn't a better way that isn't fully getting into a chem lab.
Cody, I swear. I hope you never stop making videos. You're one of the most pure channels out there. No fancy setups, just cool science with camera shots that make sense..
Years ago, as a high school kid, your channel ignited my interest for chemistry. Now, I'm a second year chemistry undergrad. Your videos have been a great inspiration to me, thanks!
Hey, Cody. I've heard of a pigment used between the time of prehistoric Egypt until around the year 800AD, where the method of manufacture was lost. It's called Egyptian Blue, and its method of manufacture was investigated by Humphry Davy in 1815, but he couldn't quite crack it. Then, in the 1980's, the method of manufacture was pretty much rediscovered, but with a few discrepancies. The recipe is to mix together silica (60-70%), calcium oxide (7-15%), and copper oxide (10-20%), and then to heat this mixture to between 800C-1000C for several hours. The result is cuprorivaite, water, and carbon dioxide. Most Egyptian samples seemed to have an excess of silica, AND an excess of either copper oxide OR calcuim oxide. Maybe an idea for a video? To remake Egyptian Blue and see what effects changing the composition has, and maybe seeing why the Egyptians used an excess of silica along with an excess of either copper or calcium. Could be interesting, since it's so weird that something so well known for nearly 4000 years and something so simple to make could be forgotten about. You're a geologist! You like rocks and stuff. Maybe an idea for a video?
Best thing about Cody is how honestly imperfect he is... he shows us that getting 10% yield (and nearly spilling it while trying to weigh it) is perfectly okay :)
It's been so long since I've seen a notification of yours!! Oh my goodness!! So great to see you!! I love how much I learn from you, you're a great teacher!🙏🏼💛
For a schooled geologist, your knowledge of chemistry is astounding! :D I am schooled chemist and when i see the experiments you make on your channel, they just blow my mind to smithereens. I couldn't do half of experiments you do because of my lack of knowledge about advanced chemistry, and that really shows how much self learning outruns those legitimate school programs. Well done man, much love to you and keep up the good work! :)
you win the internet with that comment, because humbleness is the rarest element. i was so excited to see this video when i searched "rhodium recovery" because i think im ready to do the process myself, and here he is having just posted this a couple days before i looked for new practical insight, and i know i can trust his perspective wont be bs. that said, how fun is it to wonder what he means to do with the purified rhodium?! i cant wait to find out🤓
@@whateversmurfette Everything happens for a reason and at the precisely right time! :D The way Cody explains and shows these experiments is just beautifull and so insightfull. I too cant wait to see what will he do with this rhodium. :P Good luck with your own experiments and stay safe man. :)
There's more overlap than you might think, and scrounging behaviour, (as apposed to consumption of risk) tends to lead to cross discipline learning by necessity. As far as what he's going to do with it. He kept it as a powder, and only needs a small amount, so probably as a catalyst. I'm honestly very interested what speculations you might have for what projects it would be good for.
I did come up with something, kind of hairbrained, but it's been years since I did any actual chemistry. Hydrogenating algae oil as a continuous process in order to make it precipitate as a solid, removing the need for a phase separation step.
Cody, I'm so glad you're still on UA-cam. I've been watching You Good Sir for years. Youve definitely made chemistry very interesting and all the other experiments you do are really awesome.
I really needed this video, Cody. My youtube has just been full of some of the worst, most disappointing, shame-in-the-species videos that were nonetheless entertaining I needed a reminder that awesome people do exist, and they refine exotic metals in their home lab setup for us to see and learn from. I know it sounds stupid but this random video of yours is really restoring my faith in humanity today, so thank you for being you.
Holy Shit, HE'S BACK! Been a long time fan, I actually was recently watching your old refining videos over on the internet archive (cause most have been removed from youtube >=( , anyways good to see you put out another video man, keep it up and i hope you are doing well. love from Australia
Im a PhD student in organometallic chemistry. I mostly work with rhodium and iridium. Its insane to see you go through all this effort to get some pure rhodium. Just the other day i was holding in my hands 15g of RhCl3 (about $7500). I only used 2grams of it for a reaction but stil...
This was such a cool video. I love when we get these chemistry centric videos mixed in among all the other cool stuff Cody does. Really looking forward to what this stuff will be used for and I actually hope we get a follow up video on cleaning and isolating more rhodium from the waste materials.
Cody, you are such a lovely, real and honest person. You cherish everything good that happens to you and it looks like you also grow and learn from the unfortunate things that happen instead of going into a depressed state. It would be great to have you as a friend, but watching your videos is a good substitute
You've taught me so much by now... think I've been watching for 6 years now and I really like how transparent you are with us and how sub count never changed you. I hope I get to meet you some day so I can give back, a hug at the very least.

"Guess how I know that" [camera shot of powder all over the inside of the furnace] 😂😂😂 I laughed because I was startled and what a mood. Here's to learning the hard way 🥂
Holy mother of God I have been waiting so soooo long for someone, ANYONE ANYWHERE, to post a rhodium refining! Thank you Cody from the bottom of my heart. I needed this. If you can show a recovery from a source of ewaste I would become a premium patron and send you half of the first recovery
I think my favorite thing about your show is the fact that it won't cost a million dollars to do this. I call you the garage scientist. Most projects can be replicated with stuff we have in the garage.
I do think that academics try to monopolize science, but if you were to quantify how much of an impact people like Cody make, one would be quite surprised!

I liked the look of the metal and didn't know anyone else who had one at the time. I just have to stay out of high H2 environments for one extra reason now.
I'm happy to see Cody seems to be more like his old self. I don't know what was going on but for a while watching his videos made me worried for his health. I can't put my finger on why I was feeling this way, just glad to see that the feeling is gone now. I hope you're doing well Cody, I've learned a lot watching your videos over the years
Cody cutting in the clips a lil too early where he repeats the beginning of the things he's gonna say twice really put a smile to my face as it made me appreciate how much effort goes into these videos 😁 keep up the awesome work champ!
It's really cool to see you do this unusual kind of chemistry! BTW, I seem to recall you having an X-ray fluorescence gun in a previous video. Perhaps you could use it to qualitatively asses the amount of rhodium in the waste you produced at different steps of the process. That way you could spot which step caused the biggest losses, and where optimization is needed.
[XRF] Cody, If you still have the handheld XRF it would be very interesting to see the composition of the starting material vs the end product. Great video!

I suspect that the Egyptians had an excess because they simply weren't that precise be it in the heating or the amounts.

Best thing about Cody is how honestly imperfect he is... he shows us that getting 10% yield (and nearly spilling it while trying to weigh it) is perfectly okay :)
i dont do chemistry but the moment he nearly spilled it was a real clencher
my butt clenched there for a second
the crucible tipped when he took it out for the second time, thought it was gonna spill lol
It was great, you could feel him charging up a heavy sigh just after it almost happened - just in case he needed it lol.
It's important not to fall victim to perfectionism - Cody does a great job of getting stuff done without letting fear of failure stop him.
"I have been trying to prevent poisoning myself" is a very Cody thing to say
