Thank you for uploading these lectures!!! I have wanted to revisit these for so long, but during one of the several moves in my life, I have lost ALL of my lectures I had collected. The box of tapes was inadvertently placed on top of the box which held 45 pounds of my neodymium magnets. Foolishly, I labeled the the magnet box, but not the box of tapes.

Need more like this

I really like channels like this one. Channels that entertain as well as educate. Thanks.

It's due to a few reasons. First, he repeats himself verbatim. Often. I also listen to Sean Carroll, Brian Cox, Janna Levin, and others. They don't repeat themselves like Neill does. (btw I don't mean repeating yourself for learning purposes. I mean repeating yourself cuz it's easy and a quick soundbite. Like a politician giving the same stump speech over and over) 2nd, he gets stuff wrong in ways I don't understand. For example, he said The JWST is in earth's shadow on a few occasions. Absolutely false, and he has to know that. Also his bit about the billiard ball is wrong. Or at least incomplete. 3rd, his hubris is annoying. On a recent Star Talk with Wendy Freedman, she said there was not evidence there would be a "big rip" and he basically told a working scientist "you're wrong." I'm glad it happened at the end of the show cuz I turned it off after that. And that interaction happens fairly often.

Neil Degrasse Tyson and Richard Feynman. They didn’t care about being jargonistic, and are all the better for it. I’m sure others fit the mold, Bill Nye, Adam Savage and Michio Kaku have earned my respect for these regards, but I’m especially attached to these sorts of lectures.

They are 20 years past their prime, perhaps 30. They remind me of expired milk still in the fridge.

The problem with Neil (if you want to consider it a problem...and you may not) is that I don't know of any important discovery he's made. What he does well is he's a great explicator. Not an inconsiderable accomplishment. But in terms of doing basic science (like Murray Gell-Mann, for instance, or Steven Weinberg), that's not his strength. So, I don't see him as "great" or as a "genius." But I do think he's very good at explaining mathematical complexities -- which can only be fully understood mathematically -- in plain English, explanations that come close to their mathematical equivalents. That's hard to do, and it takes a lot of training and experience to do well. But genius, greatness??? I'd reserve those descriptions for someone like Andrea Ghez or Roger Penrose or the other great discoverers. They're the people who write the scripts that Neil then interprets and explicates in ways most people can understand. I think even Neil would agree with me.
