[@Hazzard2885]

Glad to have the podcast back. Thanks for the hard work boys

[@WillDaThrill]

My ears got lonely at work im glad you're back to entertain!

[@30SECONDSREMAINING]

I just wanna hear Niko talk about Chernoybl now

[@Coolfolder]

27:06 This talk of plasma that'll burn through anything reminded me of "World's LARGEST Laser Gun!"

[@airsoft78910]

Fantastic podcast, I know you guys like having guest on and I do too, but when it’s just you guys they’re always the best episodes 👍🏻

[@Nathan-p1j]

Niko and Wren are the hosts, Sam's the funny guy and Jake is the Morty: needing things to be explained everytime something is mentioned.

[@ugowar]

I've just started listening to this podcast series and yes, I get the impression Wren and Niko are the most informed of the bunch here.

[@NinjXPk]

Can you get Matt Mercer as a guest? Would love to see Sam and Matt chat about D&D.

[@qx4n9e1xp]

Dildos & Deep-throating?

[@ScurvyBird]

omg

[@liamhenry710]

Guillotine soon? Also that new editor puts some great creative touches on your corridor crew videos.

[@Revenos]

I 100% agree

[@uwirl4338]

Yep. On par with Cmike and Nick but with some really witty touches.

[@MasekFilip]

i really enjoyed this one, but guys, you need to learn to let others finish their thoughts. Especially Jake and Sam, you are interupting A LOT when someone (mostly Nico and Wren) tries to express a new ideas.Also, I feel like you should let wren speak a little bit more, he has a lot of knowledge in a lot of areas but he gets interupted by random ideas from others...

[@brianbagnall3029]

Meh, Wren is the young guy who thinks he knows more than he does. Almost every young guy goes through this and as they get older they realize how little they knew.

[@dylanhull1096]

Brian Bagnall that is extremely closed minded like what’s the point in putting your kids through college/ university to give them the knowledge to shape the future if your believe they should be ignored in favour of age not expertise

[@brianbagnall3029]

@@dylanhull1096 Oh I don't think age should count over actual knowledge or expertise, but wren is a guy who thinks he has it all figured out and he'll realize someday he was scratching the surface at about 1% of what he should know.

[@BaldMancTwat]

@@brianbagnall3029 Wren is the best speaker and more passionate about topics than anyone else in the Corridor Crew, that's why he has done a Ted Talk, that's why the most popular Corridor Crew videos are the ones that feature Wren in the thumbnail or his ideas.

[@lassenbaertschkovalchick]

@@brianbagnall3029 wren has done more research and gone to more college on these topics then the other guys. Watch the crew channel. The proof is there. So he has this insight so he should have the most important\ relevant opinion. It’s that simple.

[@randomgaming6808]

59:00 have y'all watched love death and robots cause that whole debate reminds me of the yogurt episode 😂😂

[@deagle50ae]

OH god, that series was so refreshing. IT was like watching Animatrix all over again.

[@alicewong5865]

These podcasts are more than just fun, they're super educational. Never thought I'd come to KZbin to learn life lessons but here I am.

[@marshall3026]

The podcast is mega underrated

[@BassySB]

IM SO FREAKIN EXCITED! You guys don’t know how much I love this show

[@grrile7]

Beautiful to see y'all come back! Suggestion: on the video podcast can you guys make the in video players larger so we can actually see what you're talking about? The plasma cooling diagram was impossible to make out as was most of hot rod

[@carsonschmidt3995]

Been on the edge of my seat for the next podcast. Thanks!

[@SourishComb]

So I found it interesting to hear your perspectives on energy, particularly fusion energy. I actually worked at JET for a while, the world's biggest nuclear fusion reactor. If you have any questions on the topic, please don't hesitate to ask.

[@pielandre8275]

It's hilarious the number of time you guys say "basically" to explain very complex stuff. I love the podcasts and I like when you talk about a big range of subjects. Having links to video or article you reference in the description would be great.

[@kmatzfd3s]

Oh thank god you guys are back. I was worried lol. Love listening to these while I am working.

[@Jjrage1]

Glad to see you're back, I did get worried for a bit!

[@dreamfightersbn]

Love how jake can't agree to the 3 of them and it becomes super AI dolphins. miss these podcast. i cant stop laughing in the office lololol

[@OrvenToaster]

Pleasant surprise! I missed you guys! Gotta get Mike Diva back and talk about that Lonely Island project of his.

[@LuckIsImpossible]

The AI Governor debate is hilarious because Sam and Niko are just laughing at Jake and treating him like and idiot, Jake is looking at it from a very old-school perspective that doesn't apply, Wren is just shaking his head in disappointment cause they are all wrong.

[@jeremiasferro8407]

Glad you guys are back love these podcasts!

[@GTechOfficial]

I really agree when you guys say kids having smartphones really shouldn't be a thing. I didn't get my first cellphone until I was 12 or 13 and didn't get my first smartphone until I was 15. My younger sister said her one friend (a 13 year old mind you) just got an iPhone 11 Pro Max; a $1500 smartphone. That's like 2 months worth of mortgage payments on my family's house which just blows my mind.

[@HousekeePNG]

I used to work in a strip mall type complex and the Walmart had such a huge Canadian flag they had to get a smaller one for noise restrictions for the apartments close to it.

[@Press10]

Great listen keep up the good work

[@medarachlor]

This is a great discussion, love this

[@lightmess4841]

The whole merch talk at the end got me thinking, does Gabe still work at Corridor?

[@Yensnor]

More like this, with all of you. This was great!

[@ryanite799]

I saw Niko's name in the credits of that Netflix Special and then watched it again looking for him.

[@seclipse925]

Awesome return podcast guys! I found all the topics and discussions very interest. I'm interested in you guys bringing in another guest that has experience using softwares similar to Blender (Cinema 4D, Maya, 3ds Max, HOUDINI!!!!)

[@tamvibes]

Jake needs to let the others talk for more than a second

[@michaeloconnell7773]

Everyone's selling these sick shirts and I just want a pair of pants. Can we get some Corridor Pants?

[@jog2243]

Yes. 100%. Or some sweats and shorts.

[@pyrosbyrnur866]

Dang, Wren with them Expanse spoilers

[@JumperXxXCables]

The Bash Brothers were on the Mighty Ducks hockey team......LUL

[@TheTruthWholeTruthNothingButTh]

9:10 HES LIKE DAMN NIKO KNOWS HIS SHIT!!! great vid guys love all your vids can you guys film a video playing scattergories?

[@lisamaggs5652]

You should read the book 'Scythe' by Neal Schusterman, it's about a far future human society run perfectly by an AI - poses really interesting concepts about a single AI running the world successfully, and what it can or cannot do (and what humans need to do instead)

[@ArthurLopes39]

From all the stuff that was discussed in this podcast, the most impressive thing is the fact that they sold a single freaking peanut M&M through eBay.

[@indiefruit]

27:00 Don't ever get your hands on that plasma unless you want Wren to taste it

[@phoenixuniverse2128]

Also, a lot of the fusion talk was wrong, even at the time of recording fusion energy was a reality. It’s just not efficient enough to be sustainable. 1) the magnets out so much pressure of the input that it becomes the plasma 2) they were right about the need to change the magnets 3) they need helium but it needs to be a specific type of isotope 4) a meltdown would be the easiest and chillest meltdown ever because while at first, the plasma would burn everything around it, it would cool off VERY quickly and would be fairly easy cleanup with little (if any, I’m not exactly sure) radiation residue Also, I understand his argument against Nuclear energy but I would feel like it’s not so cut and dry

[@JaPls]

I'm not an expert (I feel like all my comments on this podcast are prefaced that way haha) but I'm pretty sure radiation in the sense of radioactive material (heat radiation is different) is free neutrons (not full atoms) which are unstable as they need at least one proton to stabilize (even though that is highly unlikely as an atom with one proton and no electrons would also technically be unstable) so what happens is these neutrons take protons and electrons away from whatever they come in contact with. Certain elements are more prone to "giving protons and electrons away" and in carbon based life, cells are highly prone to that. The long term effect isn't necessarily corrupted DNA (that's essentially what cancer is), however it's the atomic structure of the body basically fighting for control over the aforementioned protons and electrons over time. As matter cannot be created nor destroyed, and as quantum physics is basically a principle rooted in equilibrium, this molecular "battle" lasts until every neutron is "satisfied" which can take a countless duration of time. Death from radiation poisoning occurs at various amounts of time and isn't easily measurable by variables like exposure, age, and so on. It all depends on where those neutrons happen to go. Again, no idea if any of that is true, but I'm pretty sure it's at least on the right track lmao

[@lucaswelsh9020]

What TV show were they they talking about in the beginning

[@abanoubfidal7036]

Lucas Welsh Chernobyl

[@johnwillson1264]

Which 4 channel interface are they using there on the table?

[@Megasteakman]

I didn't know you guys worked with Ethan! He's really great!

[@jenket]

"You are not a Yeast." - please put that on a t-shirt.

[@ethanmontgomery4744]

I am a programmer, and an algorithm is just a set of instructions that a programmer will give a computer. It may be difficult and tedious but, if someone is able to sit down and give this AI a complicated set of rules that contribute to ethical, moral, and logical thinking, and is not just worked on by one person but, by many people I believe this is possible.

[@nevets66s]

So much for that moon announcement

[@stanleydegraef4442]

This is too interesting, taking my concentration of me studying maaannnn I hate exams.

[@georgeadams6254]

love how jake, niko n sam entertains wren with his ignorance at the beginning. wait what...

[@chriskelly8444]

back baby

[@Tubbs888]

Hey! Wren was a bit difficult to hear on the Spotify version - Not hating, just givin some feedback - Sounded like he was talkin' through a pipe sometimes - Now lookin' at the vid, he's a fair way from the mic compared to the others. Secondly, I'm with Jake on the AI. Love these podcasts. I travel for an hour and a bit every second weekend and it's the perfect. G'day from 'Straya! P.S. Send me an M&M!

[@JaPls]

On the AI topic, I could make a case for Jake and make a case for Niko. An AI that understands what it's like to be human is actually incredibly simple. Humans are basically made of sensors, RAM, a harddrive, and mechanical maintenance systems. We already have all of those technologies IE automobiles and computers. However, Jake has a valid argument because in order for an AI to truly be on the same level as a human it would need something comparable to DNA as it would need to be able to repair itself from the inside as simply as we can via digestion. Both sides are valid and also invalid at the same time haha

[@dandywizard1843]

Well if you’re talking dna and robots you are talking nanobots in that case. So therefore you need to incorporate nanobots and AI into a normal robot.

[@ian_silent]

The Chernobyl couldn't have wiped out Easter Europe. That's just physically impossible. Nuclear stations aren't made the same way as a atomic bomb. Thunderf00t made a great video about it.

[@ViincenttB]

They were talking about the interconnected water streams and rivers throughout eastern Europe that can get contaminated and affect the whole region because people as you know like drinking and using water

[@CrzyMan_Personal]

I just hope people realize that the new Nuclear designs aren't as dangerous as what was at Chernoble. Nuclear is one of our best bets for clean energy.

[@TheStarBlack]

Nope

[@Digdug44]

I loved this episode!

[@JasonNukeLegend]

That shirt looks siiiick!

[@kaneandable187]

I bet Jake likes Brawndo because it has what plants crave....

[@leon-set]

I would wish the KZbin videos you shoe were in fullscreens

[@bad99teddy]

Please do more podcasts with just corridor membets

[@realjames1]

I feel like if Niko didn't took film making, he would be a dope science professor.

[@nuthinnope8435]

FINALLY, I LOVE THIS

[@uwirl4338]

Lol, Jake has no clue. Still love him tho

[@brianbagnall3029]

Jake is a lot smarter than you think.

[@Coayer]

Radiation is ionising, meaning it removes electrons from atoms that it interacts with. If this happens in your dna, it ruins it so that (as you guys said) it cannot produce new cells.

[@irvine5732]

The talk about the AI taking over and humanity giving in has a direct episode in Netflix's 'Death Love & Robots'. There's an episode with sentient yogurt that that directly corresponds to that conversation. Also ya'll should do a Visual FX Artist reacts to all the episodes in that series, because they look soooooo beautiful.

[@AnthonyTangNZ]

A bit late but, about an AI World Governer, all because it's AI doesn't mean it won't be impartial. If it's human-made it will have a human bias. As Jake was saying, if you had to choose between killing off a crack head or the president, who would you choose? If you haven't seen, have a look at the moralmachine by MIT where they show you moral dilemmas for autonomous cars. It's incredibly interesting. Btw, would it be OK to just give it a software update? Would that be wrong? Lol.

[@cdreid99999]

Im honestly impressed that you accurately explained fission reactors. Very very few people seem to know how they work despite it actually being very simple (outside the physics of fission) And please dont talk about economics youre just repeating buzzwords you dont actually understand

[@PercyJackson-dj9hv]

Am I the only one who thinks that Jake is the only morally level head person during the A.I. World government, as far as the idea of a A.I.'s human reaction and what is morally right.

[@yinbaro]

I would really like to hear you talking about the limits of humour, if it's right to do certain jokes about certain topics

[@nyaaanjake]

Sam says the funniest shit it's insane

[@littlelion]

29:00 Wibbely Wobbely Magnetic Fusion! LOL Also, around 33:33 Sam says "It's not really a belief kind of situation," and Wren agrees, and says, we have evidence, and facts. It is my humble suggestion to look up the meaning of the word belief, which is to accept a proposition to be true with or without evidence. I suggest looking up EFDawah in relation to belief on KZbin, some good discussions, and debates :)

[@tubben234]

"That sounds like dystopian communism to me." Jake 2019

[@dylanselhorst7608]

Niko the wise

[@Qwarzz]

Crew Dragon exploded during motor tests after it had visited ISS and splashed down in the ocean.

[@samuelbarrozo7293]

Yayyyy!

[@johnperry6201]

I remember channel 101!!!

[@AndreasZachariou]

What's wrong with wren's mic? Seems like it's not working and we're hearing him picked up on the other mics

[@robbyt1341]

YESSSSS

[@atree3549]

yes

[@marshallr.8121]

remember when they had people on who knew what they're talking about? at pepperidge farm we remember

[@marshallr.8121]

at least wren brought in some reason ^^

[@duon44]

Jake "why wouldn't we destroy it". Why don't ants just destroy humanity? If there is actually some AI super intelligence one time, it would be way above our league to do anything about it :p Especially if it comes to the point where the AI can enhance itself

[@KFChocobo]

We're back!

[@alexfarris7723]

I didn’t get a phone at all until I was a freshman in high school

[@FrazNinja]

can you guys start a DnD podcast pleaseeeeee

[@Gucksav]

we bakk

[@OgreDLink]

Only Bash Bros i know are from Mighty Ducks so.. Also Sam lookin a lil like Kyle Newacheck..

[@Cheesee]

Bout time

[@StovetopBurner]

Can we get Brett 'the son' driver on the pod

[@ViincenttB]

Jake destroyed my brain cells

[@adamhenderson8015]

Nice

[@tomgosy]

If they wanted to be there by 2024 they'd have to have been working on for tens of years before now

[@ashaykholkar2095]

I take back every comments I made about you guys stoping podcast 🙏

[@fox1574]

... and now the NASA executive responsible for guiding the thing quit :(

[@nicholasdobler9783]

Totally first comment! Yall are dope

[@uwumaplee]

100% agree with Jake on everything regarding AI

[@SuSpicious9748]

Get Andy Samberg or Gus Johnson or both on the podcast. My life would be complete

[@rubenlo6221]

I feel like no ones really listening to jake when talking about a AI government instead they’re just making fun of his thoughts. I do agree with jake about we’ll never 100% understand another species because we aren’t that species. We may understand understand a species very very well but it’ll never be 100%

[@florianstout8303]

Jake realy needs to let others make thier point and stop jumping in.

[@duon44]

Damn, Nico explaining the concept of white hat hackers to Jake and he just sortof writes it off as "hacking is bad period". Without white hat hackers, companies don't give a shit about security until some actually nefarious hacker hacks the, because it costs them money to be secure.

[@StovetopBurner]

Finally

[@JCMaldonado13]

Every time Niko opens his mouth I fall asleep.

[@taaga7583]

THANK THE LORD
