I've spent days doing laborious blue collar work, with 3-5 other men. None of which went to college. Often times on those days we'll go 3+ hours without talking while we work, because an episode of JRE with a theoretical physicist, a mathematician or biologist or a professional ultra marathon runner is on, speaking about the things they know best. This way of sharing knowledge with working class, rural men white, hispanic, whatever, who are otherwise locked out of it is why Joe Rogan is so wildly influential. The fact that a bunch of fishermen or house painters have the desire, interest or attention span to listen to a physicist be interviewed for 3 hours, is why Cable television is DEAD.

[@925candyman]

Cable TV prices are out of reach for many people these days, that being another reason. I work with a bunch of blue collar people too, one of which likes books and reads a lot. He believes among other things that the Earth is about six thousand years old.

Brian Greene is (with his book the elegant universe) and everything he is done for science, is without a doubt, the reason why I got so invested in astrophysics/cosmology and send me down this path of constantly wanting to learn more, for more than 20 years now and giving me the feeling that I could 'understand' or at least imagine certain things I would never have dreamt I could understand. He is in my eyes one of the greatest scientists/educators of my generation. And I will forever thank him for that and admire his level of conveying his ideas. He kinda, on the science level, made me who I am now. Massive respect!

[@gregorybaetens8056]

@@user-in4xs2fv8j I think so, I had some physics in high school, but nothing major. definitely not enough to read his book without a challenge, but he has an amazing way to explain the most difficult topics, in ways a layman can start to grasp these concepts, he uses a lot of comparisons to make you understand a concept. I read his book twice and I never stopped learning about astrophysics after that. That must have been about 20 years ago. now I am at a point I can not learn any more astrophysics without actually going back to school to learn the higher math you need to make some calculations, but apart from that, I think I can tell I know very much about what we know about the universe. and it was Brian who started this whole journey for me. I definitely recommend reading his books if you are interested you will learn without a doubt, even if you haven't had physics before. cheers
