What a privilege to listen to this great man. Especially what he has to say about language. His breadth of understanding surpasses anyone else's, and his ready memory of countless names of people, dates, books and facts relating to so many diverse topics and disciplines, is just amazing. Others may specialize in their own fields, but hardly anyone will ever speak so comprehensively again after him.

Agree. No one I can think of is as deep over such a range: philosophy, linguistics, biology, israel-palestine, socialism, political-economy, US foreign policy in Latin America

This is a great account by two fine thinkers of the birth of the field of cognitive science, and cognitive psychology. Both Noam Chomsky and Howard Gardner are intellectual and moral American treasures.

Immortality of Chomsky's & Gardner's innovations in language & psychology.
Thank you for posting the actual date this discussion took place, 10 Oct 2016. I have never seen Howard Gardner in conversation, but I do have his epub, "Theory of Multiple Intelligences" which I shall now get round to reading. Noam is still looking healthy, and that mind continues to be so well focused.
thank you very much indeed Noam and Howard. I myself owe you a lot for what I know.
Thank you so much for this xox
Two great people.

I love Chomsky❤️
Still very valuable to me. Noams own way of understanding himself, even understanding origin of the affair we are all in.
With my sacrifice 🙏🏼, what’s I wrote is by my thoughts in pictures and my feelings expressed from my experience. I learned English as a second language. It’s not good examples. But it’s my curiosity that I liked to find out what I doubt. I love to read and learn. I tried to find out the truth so I loved especially in the field of science, minds with morals and love to live with nature where in reality it’s paradoxically when I saw while I traveled with my family. We always lived at the borders provinces since my father was a Governor, near Burma, Cambodia and in time of the people ran away from Burma, Cambodia and also the Vietnam wars. I saw how much trouble they were. I always believe in Peace from my childhood as my father told me and help them as much as we can. For computers, it’s from my doubts and observation. I loved to live with my friends here 🙏🏼💕.
I've learned a lot from Chomsky over the decades. Without detracting from his strengths, it's fair to say he has blind spots just like anyone. Knowing THAT fact is worthwhile knowledge. In other words, our wise elders may have valuable perspectives which society needs, but like all of us, they have a long way to go before they even approach the all-knowing status wrongly imputed to them by younger people. I'd guess Chomsky would agree.
Wow:)
i must say, although the white noise of the fan or whatever is making that background sound is annoying, it's less distracting than having constant coughing.
Is it weird that I am having a tiny fan girl moment here?...

There is a horrible midtone sound in there aswell, like a high pitched tone. I think they can't increase his mic since it would increase the pitch tone and it overwhelms all other sound.
It's tee time 😉👍
24:00 Reminds me of a horribly cheesy joke my undergrad cognitive psych. professor told us: "Two behaviourists are laying in bed after having sex and one says to the other, 'I know that was good for you, but was it good for me?'" Got as many laughs as you'd expect.

I think every undergraduate psychology student gets told that joke by some psych professor at some point.
Unbelievable
He tells us everything that means nothing , and has no outcome or bearing on anything..
Where is Jenie today ? anyone know ? I was doing some research on her and I could not find info on where she ended up after Jenie was removed out of Susan's program by the California authorities. I know she went to her mothers at 18, then adult care homes, then gone. I have always wondered where she ended up and if she is ok, I was so disgusted in how she was treated and shipped about, so sad.

So language is innate, another instinctive human function like walking or swallowing. Is logic?
To bad none of the questions were well articulated.
The sound is awful.. Even my love for Chomsky doesn't make me to keep watching/ listening to this🙄
Does Noam Chomsky want people to listen to him? This is the nth video I've run where I can't make out what he is saying what with his low volume and vocal fry. I'm giving up at 17.12

I was just listening to Michael Parenti and he made a comment that one of his dreams in life was to speak at a college who had its sound figured out. It's not like the speakers are setting up the microphones and recording. But yes, this has brutal background noise and I'm about to give up too. It sounds like the mic is sitting in front of a fan.
"That was the photograph of the thin man in the concen- eh, buh, behind the barbed wire..." - Chomsky on Serbian TV :-D what a charlatan
noam chomsky....what a dissapointment!!! he can hardly speak
