Meteorite Men ☄️ Geoff Notkin Conversation on his meteorite collecting life & auction Aerolite

Geoff Notkin, of TV’s Meteorite Men show and founder of Aerolite Meteorites, is selling his personal collection of meteorites on 6-22-2022. We sat down for a lighthearted chat to discuss the auction, our shared passion for meteorites, helping people, and just life in general. This conversation was long overdue and thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks Geoff! (recorded 6-19-22)

    2 Truths & 1 Lie: Geoff was never shot at from a plane. Thanks to everyone for guessing on the "Community" tab. This was a fun way to save the day after forgetting to add the answer before uploading the video. ooops! -Topher

    Thank you for this wonderful film, Topher! You are such an engaging and charismatic host. I enjoyed every minute of it. Also ... smashing job on the editing and including all those still photos (I know it's a lot of work to do that well!). Keep up the great works and I hope we get to talk again soon. Great stuff; made my day.

    Wow what a amazing interview! Topher you did such a wonderful job! Geoff, my kid guessed correctly the truth and the lie. You are so genuine with your life mission! I suppose this may have been the giveaway with Vincent's assessment. I'm so honored to be living in a time to have witnessed the work of Geoff Notkin as well as friend and colleague Topher produce such a amazing capture of everything we have loved about the experience and the meteorites!!!

    I have to take back all of my meteor wrongs too! My wife would swear I am the only " Rock" hoarder that keeps the "trash". We live on a 300 acre farm that her grandad farmed years back(one of few farm fields in the hills of WV and if my noobular self isn't wrong, we live in a strewn field) and I constantly find old farming/tractor parts. I also find many native American(Cherokee) artifacts. I could almost swear that my wife pays youtubers to post meteor wrongs more than meteror rights, so that she can say that the samples of rocks I have laying around the house, can be tossed out in the creek. It is refreshing to hear others, especially those with much more knowledge than I, talk about how they are excited, content, and happy to just be outside with a metal detector. My favorite is that and or going out at night with my 2 hunting buddies(my doggies) at night and hunt in the creeks with lights.

    Geoff Notkin!!! Wow what an awesome surprise. Geoff is a genuine guy and so passionate about space and meteorites. I totally get what Geoff means when he talks about the zone. That's the moment where you are in the field, the wilderness just being in that moment. Nothing around you and its just you or you and a friend, it's almost spiritual in a way. I guess this is the only way it can be really explained. It is so good for the soul to be free from everything else.

    I didn't catch the answer to two truths and a lie. So at first I thought, there is no way he has crossed 6 times. Then I though, well maybe, there are a lot of meteorites up there. So, he's never been accidentally shot at? But thats actually possible also.... Okay, the one thing I do know is that the first statement is true.
