Really enjoyed seeing the interview in full - you should do a series of "Joe Interviews a PhD'' - with a specialist in a different field each episode... I'd probably watch a lot of those.
Dr. Becky is my inspiration. Her videos got me interested in physics (along with The Big Bang Theory lol) and now I aspire to become a Theoretical Physicist...
Thanks for the interview, Joe. I'm a huge "Dr. Becky" fan, as much for her humanity and her exuberance as her manifest intelligence. She makes me feel young and hopeful. I've followed her for more than a year and I look forward to many more. Oh and I love your stuff too, duh. That's why I'm a patreon of yours.
I am from thirty miles south west of London and there are so many words I pronounce differently to Dr Becky. Her accent is pretty soft for Lancashire and I can tell she's moved about a bit. Great interview and she's good fun too.
Agreed. I'm in south east London next to the River Thames. The other side of the Thames is east London and they have a different accent. There are also subtle differences in clothes and music.
We love you too Johnny! Now if I could only stop falling asleep to that silky delivery and hear whole shows in a sitting... it's like an hour of rain on a tin roof. You give even the Echoes guy a run for his money!
Have more people from the north of England on. Get Brian Cox.. have Dr Becky and everyone on ..we are a little forgotten it feels sometimes with all we‘be done.. We love your show so much. Just forget about the accents..
@@patrickbyrne5070 I would pay to see Brian’s Cox and Jo with Dr Becky in the middle She’d love it, and I’d be happy to massage my purple headed stalheim
This was really fun and informative. Great ... erm conversation ( I decline to use "interview" because the chemistry was so fluid) I've been following Dr Becky since her Notts Uni guest appearances, so to see this is a real bonus. Thank you both, and please do more of these Joe.
Dr Becky is amazing, thanks for putting this together Joe! I’m really looking forward to some more of your long form conversation content. Really enjoy your channel and appreciate your sense of humor. You’ve made Monday’s almost tolerable. No small feat. 😉
Joe, your topics and questions were absolutely perfect. It captured her passion and knowledge. So well thought out and my favorite vid thus far. Thank you!
Brilliant. Dr Becky gave answers that were so clear once she went through them, and at the same time, brought up points I’ll be pondering for months to come. Great interview, Joe. Thanks for getting it done.
Just got into this channel recently and it’s super to watch and I feel that I’m learning something new every time I visit. The format is fun and accessible, and our host adds to these qualities. I think these collaborations with experts in their fields are great, especially for those that want a deeper dive. Dr Becky is a great science ambassador (as is Joe) and I think these folks do a great job of making science fun. Going to watch both channels more frequently. ❤️
Hey Joe, I’m a fan of Dr. Becky also. It was really good to see the whole interview and I think you should continue to post the complete interviews as an added bonus. Thanx for you great work.
Kinda like the 3 successive choruses of Jimmy Buffet's _Margaritaville_ : "it's nobody's fault" ... "well, it may be my fault" ... "it's my own damn fault" Fred
I have been following you for a while now, and remember when your bookshelves behind you were empty, now you have many things covered in your series, and each new thing settles up there on your shelf. You have a lot of things behind you. Literally.
I love Dr Becky's refreshing answer, of "no, we don't really know". That's nice. So much theory gets presented as fact that it muddles our actual knowledge of things. Also, I love that she said she's found her people, when talking about her colleagues. I felt that way when I joined a writer's group 🥰
Wow! That was fun, and what a lovely lady scientist, Dr. Becky is, immediately subbed her channel, watched already a bunch of videos of her and they are fun and interesting, really enjoyable. This was one of your best Joe!
Dr. Smethurst is such an inspirational person! Thanks for having her! She's on the list of women that I want to show my daughter when she gets old enough to understand fun stuff like this.
Mr. Scott you now introduced me to two people who challenge my thinking...I found you years ago on the decapitated head video and now it has changed the my world...well done
I follow both of your channels for a long while and find it so cool, that you have found each other. Sometimes the internet appears to be a small world!
This is pure gold! Thank you both so much. I follow each of your channels - love them, but to have you chattering together - wow! More like this please.
Well done Joe, I would be so out of my depth to ask the right questions to keep the interview flowing so well. Loved the Scott Smethurst neutron black hole boundary.
32:10 "As we look more and more distant we find the expansion is accelerating." More distant is further back in time. If the expansion is accelerating at greater distances, that implies the expansion is slowing with time. Maybe I didn't hear Dr. Becky quite as she intended.
Anton's channel is really cool. I like Ben G Thomas too. Have you heard of him? His UA-cam channel is not about astronomy but i think os worth checking.
I love Dr. Becky, and her channel. I find Astro physics extremely fascinating, and she's so good at bringing it down to us normal people who aren't geniuses. Such an inspiration.
Love Dr Becky!! I feel the same way Joe. I understand much of this at the surface level. I was an Engineering student. I had exposure to classic physics and astronomy but no deep dives. I watch videos from both of you to keep learning. I'm a big fan of space and rocketry. Keep doing what you do, both of you.
Yeah, another two of my favourite channels together! And yes, the Quammen video, that was a blast, too. That was also two favourite people in one screen
Talk about Dr. Becky's dialect, reminded me of an educational talk about human languages, which made me never again feel bad about "improper English". A Great Courses talk titled "The Story of Human Language", by John McWhorter. Very very interesting speaker, and I learned a lot about language that they don't teach in school.
I would love to see Dr. Smethurst do a video walkthrough showing how she takes noisy telescope data, explaining how the code parses the data and showing the results and interpretations.
That's hilarious. 20 miles away. While that is funny in the US, there are some cases where short distances do expose quite different accents. For example, I live in Southern Illinois, and I believe we have a fairly standard national accent with a few exceptions, but if you go south and cross into Western Kentucky at say Paducah, it's like going into a different world. For example, the word OIL becomes OLL. I worked at an Engineering firm from Paducah in the late 90s, and they would often say Hydraulic Oll. And I'd be like "Hydraulic what?"
My late ex father-in-law once went to visit the village where he used to holiday as a child. Walking down the street, he encountered an old man, who turned out to have been a child he used to play with. The villager had never been further from the village than he could walk in a day. Brits sometimes say you can tell which side of a hill someone grew up on.
In the 19th century it was possible to place where a person lived in London within 5 miles just by their accent. The area that the Cockney accent comes from was defined by whether or not you could hear the bow bells, roughly a 3 mile distance
cool vid bro as usual, iv been watching Becky for about two ears and really enjoy her content. i have always enjoyed and appreciated the depth and integrity of your research and this is a perfect demonstration of the effort you go to the communicate at the high standard that you do. Thank you for what you do.
I just found your channel while trying to learn about cephalopods, and I loved it. It also sprung a scenario that no one seems to have explored, how likely is it for other species to gain human-like intelligence while we are still around. Would love it if you made a video about it
Really great interview with Dr. Becky! I'll definitely be ordering her book, so you know, I can begin to talk with an astrophysicist should I ever come across one way out here in the hinterlands of central Kansas.. Heh.. Seriously, good interview. You held up your end of the conversation.. uhh.. adequately I guess.. Heh.. Keep up the good work - Thanks for this great video. Dean from Kansas
heard that you were doing an interview with Dr Becky (sorry Joe but I was a subscriber with Dr. Becky before) on OLF. I had to wait 4 days.... Very cool interview. Thanks Joe and Dr. Becky.
I'm new to both of your channels and thoroughly enjoying them. Please do shed more light on the geometry of the universe either via a collab or separately. Thank you!
Nothing to Greece where villages 3 miles apart have their own words and dialect. Where a peasant friend told me he was going to see his brother on the other side of the island, Sifnos, one day soon. Asked when he had last visited him said 'twenty years ago.'
Joe, the Esenin-Volpin Incompleteness Theorem gives a clear and rigorous answer to your question of "Is it possible to know everything? Is there an end to knowledge?" The answer is a resounding "NO!" . In a loose translation to human, the theorem says that any system of logic sufficiently complex to be interesting, is open. That is you can always formulate a question within the rules of the logic system the answer to which lies outside the logic system. And the criteria for what constitutes "complex enough to be interesting" are well defined. For example, Physics (Astro or otherwise) very clearly fit the criteria, so they're provably open in the sense I defined above. I once spent a year in grad school getting from square-1 to the proof of the theorem in a course on Computability and Complexity, taught in 1985-86 time-frame by Prof Yasuhara at Rutgers (she was amazing!)
You asked us if we like this kind of content. I can't speak for the other viewers, but little me, personally, loved it! Bring more!!! By the way, she's way too cute and sweet for what I imagined an astrophysicist would be. Well-chosen, Joe!
Dr Becky is amazing. Very good physics/astronomy/cosmology education channel always presented in a fun and energetic way from a real PhD who knows her stuff. I highly recommend subscribing to her various platforms.
Loved it Joe..watched every minute of the video...Becky explains in layman's language ..I subscribed a few months ago to her channel, so I knew this was going to be good.
I think you did a great job with this Joe. I don't know if you can beat doctor Becky, at least for me. I'm one of those "rare" men, according to women, who finds intelligence and independence very attractive. So Dr. Becky is absolutely amazing in my book but I would definitely watch more of these types of interviews
Big thumbs up for having guests. Good ones like Becky. You'll get even better as an interviewer. Also good when you talk to yourself. IMO you're a good actor when you are""acting"... When you are acting like you're not acting, you act a little less comfortable, but that's good too as your everyman act. ha ha, oh well try to form that into a complement.
This rules. She was always a highlight on Brady Haran's videos, and her channel is great, and now she's here. Classic downward spiral KIDDING love you Joe!
Extremely good interview. The translations to our level was very good and you asked the questions and follow-ups that I was hoping would get asked. Interestingly, as the conversation evolved I was getting drawn more and more to the back-and-forth. It flowed smoothly and almost didn't seem like an "interview"; more like two friends talking at a college re-union. "Good job old man." (now --> off-topic) I have always been curious about the Egyptian pyramids. They didn't build them willy-nilly, as they went along. There must have been some sort of blue prints. On crumbling papyrus sure but no documentary ever talks about it. They'll mention the main architect but not the black and white hard instructions. An architect didn't just walk around the site all day saying " Oh, that block goes here, no it might do better there. Put it there." There must have been teams of foreman working from a set of well defined plans. Any evidence or findings?
Seriously guys that was the most interesting educating & entertaining thing I have seen in a long time. Thanks Joe for introducing Dr. Becky & producing amazing content. You both managed to convey intriguing subject mater so well although I did find myself rewinding a few times to catch up.. lol I'm now also getting the book! 🤓👍🏾
Thanks Joe for both this interview and the shorter video. Regarding Dr. Becky's youth, just remember how young Einstein and Newton where when they made their greatest discoveries. We often remember their portraits, pictures or, in Eisntein's case, videos, as venerable professors, but by that time their best was way past. Same with Babbage, his very serious portrait doesn't do justice to how young he was when he started, it reflects how long it took to even develop all the tooling that the complexity of his Difference Engine required, so much so that he died without any engine completed. Ada Byron, Countess Lovelace died 36yo. They also showed many other traits of their youth. Robert Feynman, the party animal with his bongos, the youngest scientist in the Manhattan Project, Einstein quite a ladies man. Perhaps we should change the mental image of our venerable scientists. The subject of a video?
Really enjoyed this one. Two nice, personable people.

I absolutely loved this conversation! I love Dr Becky's videos btw. Hey Joe, have you heard about Stephen Wolfram's "theory of everything" idea? I hear it's received a lot of criticism but to be honest I found it absolutely fascinating.
Thanks Joe, an especially good episode. I love you and Dr. Becky for your ability to cause more questions than answers. I am always suspicious of people who claim they have all the answers. It means they really don't understand the question.
Dr Becky is wonderful. Another Brit with a completely different accent is Ian Scott of Moltex. Australian is a mix of Portsmouth and Liverpool. Both big port cities.
I love her channel. I really like Tim's. Fully Charged, School of life, Stephen Colbert, Seth Myers .....there are so many good channels. Your channel however, is easily my favourite on youtube.
He looks very relaxed and comfortable with her, so he's enjoying talking to her rather than being nervous and intimidated by her field. That's not a crush. lol
I love dr becky and I now can't wait to watch your content. Hi from ireland the accent thing is the same here even there is 3/4 accents in dublin alone and each county has a few. crazy.!! I tought it was the same all over the world. 😆 🤣 😂

On accents, I once told a friend that she sounded like someone I'd met from Birmingham. "Birmingham? I'm from Derby! That's like 20 miles away!"
That's hilarious. 20 miles away. While that is funny in the US, there are some cases where short distances do expose quite different accents.

(now --> off-topic) I have always been curious about the Egyptian pyramids. They didn't build them willy-nilly, as they went along. There must have been some sort of blue prints. On crumbling papyrus sure but no documentary ever talks about it. They'll mention the main architect but not the black and white hard instructions. An architect didn't just walk around the site all day saying " Oh, that block goes here, no it might do better there. Put it there." There must have been teams of foreman working from a set of well defined plans. Any evidence or findings?
Seriously guys that was the most interesting educating & entertaining thing I have seen in a long time.
Thanks Joe for introducing Dr. Becky & producing amazing content. You both managed to convey intriguing subject mater so well although I did find myself rewinding a few times to catch up.. lol
I'm now also getting the book! 🤓👍🏾
Dr. Becky was a fantastic guest!!! What as great interview this is.
Thank you for this Interview, It's really cool to see two of my favorite youtubers having such an interesting interview :)
Thanks Joe for both this interview and the shorter video. Regarding Dr. Becky's youth, just remember how young Einstein and Newton where when they made their greatest discoveries. We often remember their portraits, pictures or, in Eisntein's case, videos, as venerable professors, but by that time their best was way past. Same with Babbage, his very serious portrait doesn't do justice to how young he was when he started, it reflects how long it took to even develop all the tooling that the complexity of his Difference Engine required, so much so that he died without any engine completed. Ada Byron, Countess Lovelace died 36yo. They also showed many other traits of their youth. Robert Feynman, the party animal with his bongos, the youngest scientist in the Manhattan Project, Einstein quite a ladies man. Perhaps we should change the mental image of our venerable scientists. The subject of a video?
I subscribe to both of your channels and missed that Dr. Becky has a book! I have now purchased the book and looking forward to reading it.
Great time spent here! I lol that the US book version has pictures for us idjuts Luv it!
This was a very well performed interview. Also with an interesting set of topics. Unfortunately, youtube only showed it to me today.
Really enjoyed this one. Two nice, personable people.
I absolutely loved this conversation! I love Dr Becky's videos btw. Hey Joe, have you heard about Stephen Wolfram's "theory of everything" idea? I hear it's received a lot of criticism but to be honest I found it absolutely fascinating.
Thanks Joe, an especially good episode. I love you and Dr. Becky for your ability to cause more questions than answers. I am always suspicious of people who claim they have all the answers. It means they really don't understand the question.
Dr Becky is wonderful. Another Brit with a completely different accent is Ian Scott of Moltex.
Australian is a mix of Portsmouth and Liverpool. Both big port cities.
So glad this is in listening format!
The Two best people on the tube at the moment. Thanks
I love her channel. I really like Tim's. Fully Charged, School of life, Stephen Colbert, Seth Myers .....there are so many good channels. Your channel however, is easily my favourite on youtube.
Joe man, you have a look of love on your face, You were lit up talking to Becky. Like a shy kid with a crush :)
There is only one answer to your observation.

@@ArthurMottergan so have I, but she still attracts my attention!
He looks very relaxed and comfortable with her, so he's enjoying talking to her rather than being nervous and intimidated by her field. That's not a crush. lol
