The Stoner Episode with Janna Levin & Neil deGrasse Tyson - Cosmic Queries

[@StarTalk]

Be honest...Was your mind blown?!

[@Logan-kv5cv]

Honestly yes, i was smoking with my girlfriend and when you all started talking about us being energy and molecules i got the tingles😂

[@bigwill123ism]

With Startalk, my mind is always blown lol

[@jasonleblanc-comeau9705]

That there no chuck

[@infinatep1mp737]

Always at least 1 thing I learn per episode

[@williamckama8470]

I come2 klass

[@laurafortier9295]

Janna is so chill. Her mic makes her look like she has her knee up while she's chatting. She always talks about this stuff so conversationally. Much appreciated!!

[@laurafortier9295]

She's the kind of person you'd want to be at a dinner party with. And she is so ready to laugh and smile. It's fun for her. That's super cool

[@June_Magoo]

Loving the stoner friendliness, casualness and positivity towards it by such intelligent scientists

[@Igor-Demchuk]

It's always so great to see Janna Levin on the podcast.

[@mxxxrcalexxxander9394]

I don’t know what’s sexier her looks or her brains lol

[@thegreenhornetkato6211]

Brains ! ......definitely Brains... looks and the rest of her is a bonus

[@StarTalk]

It's always a blast!

[@Banana_Cognac]

@@thegreenhornetkato6211 I agree!

[@brucepreston3927]

Janna Levin is my favorite guest! I could sit an listen to her talk about this stuff for hours...She has a way of explaining things that makes sense to me...I've watched all of her past episodes many times! Love the show!

[@kevincant88]

Genuinely countless times. I agree, by far the best guest.

[@B1u35ky]

Same, no Chuck though :(

[@brucepreston3927]

Yea, I like this guy also but Chuck and Janna together is awesome! Chuck always gets his mind blown! lol

[@OGMrWayne]

Preach

[@-___-g]

I agree ☝️

[@MosiExotix]

Luv star talk! But for a true stoner edition we definitely need Chuck 🔥😂

[@gazzabethyname]

Exactly.

[@jagrutpandya07]

True 😂

[@paul4280]

Yeah I was very disappointed not seeing Chuck 😢

[@CompaCookies]

@@paul4280 me too, “but then I got high”

[@fuzzykurb]

Facts. Chuck is the stoner addition that makes the educational information entertaining

[@JuanFlores-zg2zs]

Oh how awesome would it be to have Janna as a professor; her way of explaining is so clear. I really appreciate her presence in these Star Talk episodes. It’s uplifting

[@user-tc1fw5ms5s]

The Janna Levin episodes are always so good! Her knowledge of her field is incredible, that field is one of the scientific topics im most interested in, and on top of it she's funny and easy to understand. More Janna episodes please! (And it would be dope to have Chuck for a stoner edition especially)

[@jeanmakesgames]

If you make that stoner edition, you NEED to have Chuck Nice has co-host! 😂🙏👍 Also, love Jenna and Matt, always a pleasure to see them on the show ☺

[@dunderwood4444]

This is true, Lord Nice will ELEVATE the Stoner edition episode

[@shinjutsu4235]

That's what i said 🤣🤣🤣Chuck would have LOVED this episode

[@frantisekvtelensky820]

Chuck and the album Dopethrone by Electric Wizzard as a background. 🙏👍

[@colliersmith5499]

Agreed

[@nashbassett4120]

This needs to be done getting high and watching this is the best thing you can do (that's productive AND easy that is)

[@TJ-hs1qm]

37:34 gravitational energy in the curvature of the space time wow by far the best explanation I've ever heard!!! Janna Levin is so awesome in explaining this stuff 🙏🙏🙏

[@swoodruff]

That blew my mind. Everything that falls into a black hole completely disappears and turns into freakin gravity...

[@SadCatSad]

Im listening to Startalk in the morning on my way to work, and i just wanna say that i cant get enough of your comedic and yet intelligent way of stating facts and theories. Thank you Mr Tyson for being an awesome human being!

[@SadCatSad]

@ not true...There are many facts stated by all of them during this episode as they were explaining theories. This is how you articulate a theory. Based on facts and knowledge we speculate that X behaves like Y ^^

[@StarTalk]

Thank you for this awesome comment! Glad you're enjoying :)

[@wendy645]

​@@SadCatSad One might say it's a relative theory, even!

[@a13Banger]

I must say, this episode in particular, this particular panel, everything was clicking so well I think that this was my favorite Star Talk ever and I think I have heard just about all of them. Such amazing work S.T. Team

[@StarTalk]

So glad to hear you think that! Thank you.

[@juliesloan4100]

It's only my 2nd! Easy hook. And Jana, I keep thinking how much alike atoms and solar systems are, which makes size another dimension, if each atom had the possibility of containing a type M planet with life

[@swoodruff]

@@juliesloan4100 I've thought about that before too! What if every atom in our universe was a whole other universe? Crazy to think about

[@astilen5647]

Please do an actual stoner episode, we need a good laugh and an immense sense of wonder just like Carl Sagan

[@TooshanSrivastava]

yes please

[@thomastmc]

Id very much enjoy to participating on that (cough) 😉

[@amriddle01]

I think it's best they don't promote recreational drug use. Especially considering the health implications amongst other issues...

[@astilen5647]

​@@amriddle01 Please don't promote mediocrity. Do you know the health implications amongst other issues of living restricted protected lives under the care of your 'betters', or being misinformed and not knowing what your limitations are? We asked them to have a healthy amount, not act like teenagers. They actually need to show teenagers what is the proper use because all they see is rappers doing it wrong and making it superficial. Plus, using it justifies a more emotional inspirational show just like Carl Sagan did, whom you must look up immediately.

[@Takeangel1995]

@@astilen5647 Tell me, what is the proper use then? As a person that walked away with a psychosis after smoking cannabis for a few years, I really wonder what the "save amount" is, when different people react extremely differently to different substances.

[@Nefville]

You can tell Chuck learns from Neil but also Neil has definitely learned some comedy from Chuck! 😂🤣 I love it my two favorite science educators! Neil and Janna are so good at explaining these deep subjects. I've spent most of my life studying this stuff, its familiar to me and even still I can't wait to watch you two discuss these subjects. Would love love love to take one of Janna's classes.

[@tomv7327]

Totally agree on your comment on how the two have learned from each other. I was thinking the same thing.

[@ollywright]

Janna is awesome: such an engaging and entertaining manner whilst communicating very complex ideas clearly.

[@manasisnehal1572]

It's always an interesting episode when janna is on the show.. I have never missed any of her episodes. Love her! ❤✨🌈

[@joehebert789]

Star Talk episodes with Janna definitely cause time to pass more quickly than normal.

[@swoodruff]

Heyyy we discovered time travelling to the near future!

[@michaelallen2501]

Not gonna lie, I sit down with a freshly brewed coffee and a freshly packed bowl every time to fully enjoy Star Talk lol. I also purchased the classic Cosmos series with Carl for background noise to fall asleep at night. I can't help but be fascinated by the world and universe around me. Getting high just makes me appreciate it that much more. 🤷‍♂️

[@skepticusmaximus184]

I know. It's like how I get drunk and it makes certain people to look reeeeeeal pretty. 😍 😜

[@dennisestenson7820]

​@@skepticusmaximus184 are you 12, lol

[@skepticusmaximus184]

@dennisestenson7820 Oh yes, of course. Because loads of 12 yr olds get hammered and go cruising for some tail with beer goggles on. 🙄😆 I wish I was 12 again. More than 5 times that is a little older though. 😐

[@infinatep1mp737]

Love listening to this while working to renovate my new home. Always learning

[@StarTalk]

Happy renovations! Always learning is the best way to be.

[@vincentbeaulieu5300]

Chuck is my favourite co-host, but matt has a knack for segueing questions into answers of previous questions that i just love ❤️

We're so glad you did!

Neil is one of my heroes. one of the most laid back scientists with a great sense of humor.. He makes learning fun and entertaining.

Wait…how do you do the stoner episode without Chuck?

For real what 😢

[@kennylynch9317]

Cause he's tolken it up in the next room

[@dougyplex]

I love when Jann 11 is on the show! Always a fascinating conversation that makes me daydream about black holes and space time for days afterward.

[@AdamOn24s]

I love starting my day with startalk you two are the best!

[@fc-qr1cy]

was in the middle of listen to A STATE OF TRANCE LIVE but saw the name Janna Levin i had to stop what i was doing and watch. Love me some Janna Levin.

[@ilaphroaig]

Janna, my favorite guest of all time!

[@sirvapalot]

I am actually enjoying being high smoking bongs while watching and listening to this fabulous discussion,, we may be high but we are hungry for knowledge.

[@kameronpayne9291]

Janna Levin needs to be a full time co host love her energy

[@jadedmonroe8526]

I Truly enjoy Janna Levin on the show. Would love to see more of her! Missed Chuck on this episode. You guys should definitely do a stoner version, and bring Lord Chuck!

I always watch each episode while blazing. It's the law

[@NoahFroio]

As a long-time ocean diver and kayaker, I can tell you, unequivocally, that the water IS indeed moving (4:30) near shore. The major body of water that is the ocean may be moving up and down, but breakers and waves, definitely have a strong forward and backward (under-tow) movement and can be witnessed by how far a wave will push you from (or toward) a stationary object (landmass or surface piercing rock formation).

You had me at stoners! So we could be in a galaxy inside a giant's thumbnail?

Im not sure how to handle an episode without my favorite comedian Chuck Nice.

[@rurouni.]

Neil is way too happy that the idea of a Stoner edition of the show was brought up 🤣

[@pnnkznkt]

I just love it that out of tree of them, two have a professional setup and Jenna Levin is just in classroom.

Was rolling a joint when this video dropped

Meant for you!

I like how this episode came out March 11 my time, and featured Janna Levin as well, nice little rhyming coincidence :)

[@R0gueNinja]

The fact that black holes appear totally empty when observed from outside is mind blowing when you consider the ginormous amount of mass they contain. It’s pretty wild to imagine that entire stars and planets practically disappear when they get sucked in. At least, from our perspective, only their mass remains. We’ll probably never know for certain what form matter takes inside a black hole, or the exact process by which it all happens. I like to think of black holes as galactic trash compactors that we can’t look inside.

[@dexterity1474]

There is no stoner edition without chuck 🤣

[@dexterity1474]

🤣🤣🤣

[@robinghosh8891]

Fantastic information on Space, Time ,Black hole, event horizon..of the Grandeur of the universe..Mind Blowing

The only thing missing was some psychedelic background music and lava lampd. Awesome show, bring Jenna again soon

Me high rn 😂😂

[@asef]

Thanks! Love the stoner edition idea!

[@a-par82]

I demand chuck!

[@ryanrutledge922]

When Janna described temperature as air molecules vibrating at different speeds it changed my life . Mind blown .

[@andilemtwana1871]

When I'm struggling to sleep I just listen to Neil's talks... I love science but it somehow makes me fall asleep

[@bradwilliamson6053]

36:00 Love Janna’s description of a black hole here. She says it’s “empty space” and “it has gravitational energy in the curvature of space time.” In my mind, I believe the event horizon is where matter and energy is converted into spacetime curvature. The black hole’s warping of spacetime keeps track of how much matter and energy was consumed.

[@joshuawoodbury8112]

I love the question, can you view the whole universe and how far away do you have to be. One, you would have to see infinite. Two, have you seen Hubble deep space. It's mind-boggling to try to grasp infinite. That's why I love the show, Neil deGrasse Tyson thank you for inspiring me. It would be an honor to one day meet you at the museum of natural History

[@bnicolette14]

No Chuck?! What! He'd be awesome on this one, plus the two of you with Janna Levin is *chef's kiss*

[@henrycruz5156]

Bring Action Bronson along with Janna!!! A two hour show 🙏🏽

[@ponyote]

When working for a GPS company, we referred to the fundamental data as PVT. Position, velocity, time. Without all three, one cannot find where something was.

[@FelixProject]

I have to confess, one of my most favorite things to do is smoke some weed while watching Startalk. It's quite amusing for an episode to be so appropriate for me.

[@charlesandrews2419]

Just watched. Great. Must watch again. Is it possible to run out of time?

Hello Niel. The colors of the room Matt is in are a huge distraction, I'm a bit dizzy from the contrast between the very white doors and heat radiator against the color of the wall, which so far I haven't been able to decide if the color is lilac, fuchsia or purple, so i decided to call it "LIFUPLE". I am a Venezuelan "AFICIONADO" to your channel and I have acquired knowledge in a fun and entertaining way. I hope you keep releasing new content. Thank you for bringing culture and knowledge to my life.

[@leoncorns1450]

Jana Levin can even blow the mind of Neil DeGrasse Tyson 👏👏👏

[@gusmarokity6482]

Immensely enjoyed the show. Would love to have two questions: - Is it still true that if we knew positions of all atoms in the universe we could tell the future? - Our souls live on after death which is scientifically proven, couldn't Tyson and friends incorporate this fact in answering some of the greatest questions regarding space and time? Or, if they already have can you give me info link?

[@damianmlamb]

Need more stoner additions with more mind blowing facts.... 💯

[@yunghitta2x77]

Jann is beautiful I can listen to her all day!

[@GOLVEL]

Neil, being a great mixture of scientist, educator and entertainer tries to, I believe, make complex concepts accessible to the average person... and I feel he interacts with this guests so that they explain in a different way.
