He and Neil are similar in that they have high IQs. The difference is Neil has a trained mind , an educated one. While both smart , Neil is knowledgeable while Chuck without the vast education is still like many of us ... searching. Great team no matter what !

The cool thing is, that Chuck doesn't THINK he is. He sometimes asks the 'dumb' questions that elicit the answers that we need to actually understand some of the more complex things they're talking about. He's certainly grown, and by asking the questions to tie things together in his mind, he gets us the answers we need to put things together for the rest of us. It's a great combo for a podcast that, in the BEST way 'both sides' it...the expert and the 'not expert, but knows what to ask'...

The real reason I tune in is to hear Neil say “chuuuuck” in the intro

Hey Neil - still living in denial of the UFO evidence the US military has released even this week. That's not what scientist do - they boldly explore the Facts regardless of where the Truth

Chuck and Neil! Best duo since Shaq and Kobe imo!

As a mother of a special needs daughter, it makes me tear up to know these scientists have devoted their lives to figuring out CRISPR and it's future implications. I have spoken many times to the doctor/scientists working directly on my little girl's genetic disease and am hopeful that a cure is within reach in her lifetime!

Thanks guys, regardless of what's happening in the world today, or a bad day, personally, click on Neil and Chuck and you will left smiling, as well as, well informed. Neil, Chuck, Thanks Again

Neil & Chuck - you are the bomb 💣 as we used to say when I was a kid in the 70s - when giving a compliment to a very cool 😎 person!! Star Talk (yes I’m a Patreon for your show) gives me a reason to look forward and smile and laugh. AND in these crazy political times when so many want us to go backwards- being able to feel good about the future and smile / laugh (because Chuck is THE BEST) is so important for so many AND I THANK YOU BOTH!!!

Thank You, Dr. Tyson and Chuck for the shows. This was one of your best ones!!!!

Thank you so much star talk. Last week I thought to myself, why hasn't Dr Jennifer Doudna appeared on star talk as yet. Thank you also Dr Doudna for the crispr technology, after reading the data, I made up my mind to get vaccinated.

That was so nice, Neil! Say hello to your brazilian audience🤩. We love your show!

We can't blame Dr Doudna, discovery of CRISPR was inevitable, but now Pandora's box is open, the genie is out of the bottle. Doudna and Isaacson kept saying that regulation and consensus would protect us, that problems wouldn't arise for a long time, but the future is a long time. Sooner or later we will learn to shape and play with biology and evolution, humanity will morph into combinations with other animals and unimaginable new designer forms. It'll be wild, life will go on.

Gattaca came immediately to mind. Other works where even cosmetic tweaks with skins, eyes, nails, etc customized by shape, colour, etc. Mutations of various kinds are eventually going to be mainstream normal (or taboo). The unaddressed point here was the potential for unexpected side effects and results of changes, since the whole ripple effects come into play since no change happens in a vacuum. All this also completely overlooks the potential for weaponization.

Are you kidding me? I’ve been waiting for an episode on CRISPR for such a long time 😍

I watched all the way through. I kept looking at the distinctive doors and arched doorways in the background. I thought that they were familiar to me from Nola. I was an artist in Nola for fifteen or so years and painted all the historical architecture. From the balconies, doorways. I was known as ‘the doorman. ‘. I was so glad you asked about the jazz gene At the end and he said where his apartment was on Rue Royal. I painted those doors many times over the years.

I just finished the Code Breaker audiobook, the section about the ethics and all the thought exercises is my favorite.

I loved this book and keep it for future readings. Walter Isaacson is a wonderful biographer who learns his subject and communicates it in a peerless way.

Fascinating! The code breaker is an excellent read, thank you guys for putting this episode together.

What a great episode. Truly some amazing things learned in this episode.

First of all, I really enjoyed this. So much in fact that I watched the ads too. Secondly, it felt like getting punched in the liver when Mr. Isaacson mentioned microchips getting cheaper.

Chuck - I feel like chopped liver around chopped liver so I feel your pain, but you're definitely more than an "Oh yeah, and Chuck!" to those who tune in. Thank you both for what you do!

There probably are but since this is an open forum type audience, the questions need to be more generic as opposed to indepth. Even when Neil is explaining things he does not dig in to deep. The audience wants to be able to understand what they are talking about. To much scientific jargon will turn people off. The reason Neil and Chuck are so popular is because they add humor and laughter to the program and keep it light. Neil could ask deeper questions but why when he is getting the best answers in a way that makes sense and gives you something to think about. If you are interested research the topic.

When's the CRISPR machine going on sale to the public? Imma buy one. I've already bought a 3D printer and a soldering kit. I have a brilliant idea-it's gonna change the world!

I love Neil & the show, but maybe an episode focused on the tech we have to fix our planet, that we might last long enough to explore the cosmos?

Inspiring and horrifying technology. Cystic Fibrosis would be amazing to eradicate. My favorite person in the world has lived with it every day for 40 years and would happily accept a cure, but had they lived their life without it, they wouldn't be the person I cherish today... And that's an optimistic pov... don't get me started on the realist expectations of big money & politics thinking they should be involved 🥺

You could even design babies to be designers as babies so that they would be designer baby designer babies. 😄 In all seriousness though I really don't think we will be able to control it without moving the Doomsday Clock like we do with nukes. We can't control people socially or otherwise hacking the phones of the mentally ill to make them jump the White House fence, run an 18-wheeler into a crowd, mail pipebombs, storm the Capitol and all kinds of other "social media told me to do it" horror scenarios, because we can't control social media. Similarly this has the same, "it's my body, I want my baby to glow in the dark" ethics issue where some president is going to come along and say "well y'can't stop progress" because there is so much money to be made. You could charge $100,000 per glow in the dark baby mod. Without laws I'm afraid it's not very controllable, which has the unfortunate side effect of infringing on people's rights. Another scientific topic Star Trek totally covered with, "KKKAAAAAAAAAAAHHHNNn!"

Hi, Some time ago I watched a video where you explained a freezing pipe keeps water from freezing because it compresses it, until it can’t contain it then the water freezes. I am wondering does this also happen in the reverse? Can a pipe stop a material from heating up and expanding?

Yes, we are certainly entering the world of designer babies. Absolute certainty within a hundred years, likely sooner.
