If we read a story where coincidence, like in the true world, happens, we read this as lazy writing.

It could be from shame and people pleasing, but helping others is also just good for the soul in a purely healthy and wholesome way. It depends on what the root of the decision to help someone is. Don't discount being selfless out of fear that it will always make you weak, because if it's your own genuine choice, coming from a place of compassion for the other, it actually empowers you and makes you strong - and that will reduce your anxiety too.

13:00 On that topic, It occurred to me the other day that when I hear the word "prehistoric" I usually think about dinosaurs, when that literally just means anytime before humans begin keeping history.

The whole explanation behind "people will accept the impossible, but they won't believe the improbable" is eye-opening.

We need more Michael. He is genuinely one of the greatest teachers of this age. He is one of the very few individuals who knows how to make learning fun

I definitely agree with his take on movies. They romanitize reality in a way that we completely lose our sense of reality in it. We start to romantize our own lives the same way as movies do, because it gives us a feeling of meaning we desperately crave. I explains not only "main character" behavior, but also maybe conspiracy theories. However, i feel like this phenomenon of romanticization is not new. People have used music, books and even just stories to reach the same thing.

The fact that there are so few cuts in this interview, compared to all the other ones on the channel, shows how interesting Vsauce is, and how fluidly he can move between topics while keeping everything cohesive. It really is an underappreciated talent.

Another one is, "A podcast of unnecessary details" by Matt Parker appropriately named is about them choosing one phrase such as "time" and each of the 3 host would bring up a topic that relates to that phrase that they find is interesting. Then they go into unnecessary detail about it. There's a lot of cool podcasts with structured premises and I recommend checking them out. There's also fully scripted podcasts that are more akin to audio books. A lot of cool options. As for why people enjoy podcasts about people aimlessly talking for hours. Some people just need audio in the background to zone out while they do other stuff. Some people just find certain people interesting and would love to hear whatever comes to their mind.

it's so validating to hear him talk about how he knew what death felt like because as someone who has been knocked unconscious and gone under anesthesia-- that's *exactly* what it feels like. it's not like sleep where you go into it knowing what's going to happen and waking up slowly. it's just.. one moment you're conscious, the next you're not, and then you instantly wake up with all your energy again. very weird feeling

@HeyPlayboi

11 ай бұрын

Yeah a similar feeling happens when I faint, is being unconscious or anaesthesia the same as this? I was jumping while fainting (bad idea ik it felt like it might stop it) and it felt like I was still jumping even until my vision went complete dark, after about 0.2 seconds of darkness it still felt like I was standing up perfectly straight until I heard a massive thud, which I could tell was my head hitting the wall because i fell forwards. It’s weird how my sense of direction completely disappeared even though it felt like it didn’t and I also felt no sense of touch hitting that wall?, only the sound. The exact time I hit the wall I opened my eyes to 10 minutes in the future lol, it felt quicker than an eye blink. Even though you pass out when standing up too quick when low on iron. It’s completely different as you’re completely full of strength and the faint is like a surprise as you get a counterfeit of your body’s senses to replace your loss of sense.

@HeyPlayboi i've never fainted personally so i couldn't say if it feels exactly the same, but i definitely relate to what you said about it feeling a little like you'd time traveled somehow in the blink of an eye. the reason it felt like death to me is because it made me realize that if i hadn't woken up again after that i just wouldn't have noticed or cared because there was no way i could've. there was no slow drift into it there were no dreams or darkness, just a void in time where i wasn't thinking or experiencing anything. i can say that when i was knocked unconscious it was because i ran into a wall lol and a similar thing to you happened where i didn't feel the sensation of me actually hitting it but i could see it happen before i blacked out. the brain is weird !!!

The thing I felt was weird when I have had anesthesia is that I had no sense of how much time had passed when waking up. It could have been 10 minutes or 10 months without any way to confirm how much time has passed.

When I got in to a push bike accident, It was pitch black and I miss judged the curve, went straight over the handle bars and my head was the first thing to hit the pavement. (No helmet). I remember looking across and seeing no one in front of me, the next second I was on my feet with someone coming to me. I dont know how long I was out, I dont remember standing back up. If that is how death feels, than I am not afraid as long as its quick.

​@HeyPlayboi if you are going to faint from standing up too fast, you need to flex your abs. That will redirect blood flow and it will stop you from fainting. I am anemic and I would faint when standing up too quickly all the time, until I learned this trick now it never happens. :)

It's amazing how an almost 40 min video feels so short. Is there an extended version of this interview? It's really fascinating to hear Michael talk.

This is absolutely my favorite interview Anthony has ever done. Not because I didn't get to hear him speak much, because I think he is such a wonderful modern interviewer, but Michael Stevens is just such a special person. He's so open, and so curious, and so insightful. He led this interview with ease, and Anthony LET HIM, and participated in exactly the way Michael needed him to. Asking questions, posing theories, keep an open heart and mind. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful job, Mr. Padilla. This was fantastic.

Man, I wish this episode was 100 hours long. I've felt so calm, intrigued, captivated, connected. I can not describe how at peace this man makes me feel

I had this physics teacher in high school. During the lessons he was almost bubbling with excitement about the things he taught. With a smile on his face and clear passion to share his knowledge... He was a strict teacher and even a bit scary sometimes. But despite that, everyone loved him. And everyone still has nothing but fond memories of him. We need more educators like this.

Vsauce is what inspired me to do science and now I’m about to graduate with a degree in Chemistry so…thanks for this!!!

It was so fascinating to hear him explain his thought process in how he comes up with his videos, it makes total sense that he has this ever-growing tree that branches out into individual fruits of video ideas. I absolutely adore Michael!

This is gonna sound dramatic, but I'm 23 now and growing up with VSauce on KZread genuinely helped me in my ability to deconstruct statements and look into topics deeper than just the surface level. This man has actually been a key part of developing my critical thinking. I pray Michael continues doing his thing for a while longer, and that more creators take up his mantle when he eventually steps off the platform.

I would totally just listen to the guy sit there and talk for a half an hour, bringing in all the research he's done and all the thoughts he's had, no need for a script or concept. Like a... I don't know, a podcast or something?

Anthony the whole time: "mmmmm"

Michael is a man who is incredibly in tune with his mind, he really is a modern philosopher fueled by raw curiosity it's a beautiful thing.

Meeting Micheal Stevens in person, and shaking his hand is on my bucket list. I grew up in an evangelical christian home, very strict and traditional. VSauce, as well as so many people (like Hank Green), helped me learn, and grow my mind, and become more thoughtful. I love learning, and thinking, and being proven wrong and finding out why. So thank you Micheal!

The ‘mouse on a wheel’ callback was brilliant, funny asl but also highlights Anthony’s focus and skill while conducting interviews ( 31:00 ish)

I think of Michael as more of a researcher than a philosopher. He does so much more than just take guesses or give an interesting idea to think about. He fully develops his thesis and gives you a full understanding of the topic at hand, rather than philosophize about it. He would make a phantastic Professor!

I mean I love Vsauce as much as the next guy but philosophers typically get included in books for having novel ideas and a coherent philosophical outlook on life or a specific subject. What Michael is doing is closer to Wikipedia in that it’s mostly a summation of existing knowledge but with some novel connections made between them.

@10:00 yeah that tracks, Michael radiates pure marching band clarinet energy, this is very familiar

Anthony gives Michael the chance to pitch his box and he rather reacts annoyed and speeds right through it, not trying to sell anything, to get back to the cool stuff. What a cool guy. 37:20

This was probably my favourite episode. As for that feeling of death, you experience that every time you go under anaesthetic. It’s amazing. Feels like time travel.

michael has such a fascinating way of talking, even in just a normal kind of conversation like this. he said himself that it's just the way that he talks, but he talks with a cadence as if he himself is so incredibly fascinated with every sing thing that he talks about. and especially later in the interview when he's talking about some of the mindfield experiments he's been apart of, you can really hear just how... like. awe-struck and excitedly curious he is about the profound and practically philosophical things that he's recalling experiencing.

I think the two might be related. It's because Michael is down to earth that he can let the videos go to crazy directions without imposing on them.

Michael is an impressive person. He was essentially just having a conversation with Anthony and I was so intensely focused. Anthony barely even needed to ask any questions, Michael just fuels his own fire and it’s awesome

Anthony your channel is fricking amazing, and I'm proud to have lived in the same times as you and Michael.

It's so amazing to listen to Michael just talking. He truly has a gift

VSauce is a philosopher that managed to reach so many people that probably wouldn't look at philosophy otherwise. I love him.

The way that Michael speaks is so enthralling, I could just listen to him talk about any sort of subject forever. This was probably the most interesting and captivating episode of this series that I've seen so far.

Rare footage of Vsauce blinking

This show is a gem. Can't believe how far you've come anthony. Been a fan of Smosh and VSauce from the very beginning. Keep doing you Anthony.

Michael is truly a wonderful human being, and aside from his educational endeavors, has some of the best deadpan comedic timing I've ever seen.

Oh my goodness we need the uncut version this is incredible. Seeing vsauce just say whatever is on his mind is an entirely new and amazing experience

This man would be apart of the best blunt rotation in the world

This man blows my mind with every sentence he speaks.

People like Michael can fundamentally change humanity.

Michael's thoughts on decreasing attention spans and his talking point about wild mice liking hamster wheels too were so interesting to hear. Absolutely fantastic interview!

Is there a part-2 to this? Anthony is a really good host.

That whole section about the ayahuasca trip is why I work in healthcare. I’ve always felt massively fulfilled and at peace knowing I’m brightening someone up in a time of darkness. It’s why I’ve always been a great listener. I can just sit there calm and collected while you let out your emotions knowing that ima help out

Michael is the kind of person I would kill to have as my science teacher: clever, perceptive, charming, and such contagious passion. It's no wonder he became so popular as V Sauce!!

I could quite honestly watch 10 hours of Anthony and Michael talking to each other.

Vsauce has to be one of the most entertaining people to just listen to and elaborate with, even if just on a screen.

Micheal is the kind of guy that you would happily have a conversation with while you walk, but also the kind of guy you wouldnt be stuck in a room without exits with
