Was coming down here to say similar! Just because you might dislike a person for personal reasons and wouldn't be someone you'd hang out with, *_doesn't mean_* you can't RESPECT them and still work well with them. Honestly, it's that last part that I don't know if *_I_* could accomplish, and I admire/respect Adam for! To me, someone I don't click with personally would make me reluctant to want to interact with them, and thereby wouldn't work well with them. _(though, I can respect them still; I _*_loathe_*_ Intel and nVidia and will never own their products, but I still respect that they make top notch stuff)_

I have a hard time seeing it that way. I was once friends with a local artist who is a pillar of a certain community and I served as a fellow admin to an FB group he is also admin to. I am also "friends" with the same folks as his. I did not physically met the guy until the twilight of that relationship so we interacted online. He's not a pleasant guy to interact online and he is very outspoken on a variety of topics (including harmless jokes) that he devoted paragraphs of angry-sounding diatribes per post on his FB account. Got into many an accidental online spats, mostly because I did not understand that going against his opinion is a pet peeve of his (and frankly even then is a stupid pet peeve to have). Those interactions set up the stage for the end of my relationship with him. I met him physically in 2022 after an event I volunteered as staff (not his event) and we went to a bar to celebrate a mutual friend winning in said event. After a few drinks (I didn't drink for personal reasons) we talked face to face and he said the following line: I hate you as a person but I love your work. At that moment, I have no reaction to it. I don't know how to react to that at all. The night ends and said our farewells. From that point onward, I decided that I would work with him at a professional level since friendship of any kind is impossible with him. I did not harbor any ill will towards him or the "friends" we share... Until I noticed a week after that night that I was removed from admin duties two days before that night. I was removed by one of those "friends" I thought I have for no clear reason. What's worse? None of the other "friends" rose up to my defense, not even the guy who hates me personally but admires my work as admin. I was enjoying that night with them not knowing they cut me off professionally, and nobody told me anything about it. From that point onward, I don't want to work with him anymore. Any interaction with him after that night is that of awkward strangers: we don't see eye to eye and we just do the motions with no small talk in between. Outside of that, we ignore each other, same with those old "friends" I used to be with. With that sort of experience, I can't see myself doing that. I cannot admire someone professionally while at the same time they hate my guts personally. I have this feeling that whatever opinion I have about their professional work would be dismissed automatically because they hate my guts. At this point, why bother about them? They don't want me to bother them so why should I?

Theres different kinds of friends. I have friends I want to hang with. I have friends I only game with. I have friends I frankly do not like to hang out with outside of shared passions like hobbies or maybe sports but who I sincerely enjoy sharing that with. I also have great friends at work who I never see outside work. All of these people I would trust in a heartbeat. All of them I could call at any minute and they would pick up the phone and they would help me out if I had a problem. I would do the same. Theyre all great friends of mine. But they're not all the same kind of friend.

It sucks but it’s pretty standard for reality TV. The industry sort of looked the other way for years because it was a great way for up and coming crew members to get experience to eventually get into a union but in the aftermath of the Discovery-Warner merger and the death of cable TV in favor of streaming (which also doesn’t give residuals) it’s probably a problem that needs to be approached more directly

The people involved have the best residuals ever - knowing how many people they inspired. I worked with kids for years in science/tech related after-school clubs and the amount of them that got into STEM related stuff due to watching mythbusters was astonishing. I would be willing to bet the amount of lives impacted by the Mythbusters team is quite astonishing. When you look at people who create something for the benefit of others (like Mythbusters) and is truly inspiring and compare it to people who create garbage (most "reality" TV) it really puts into sharp perspective how important it is for people like Adam to tell these stories and continue making content. It is unfortunate (yet understandable) that Jamie hasn't embraced content creation like Adam - but I am really glad we have Adam who loves talking about it.

I think people tend to forget that being in a professional relationship where you get along in that setting does not have to be precluded by a strong friendship or meshing of personalities. Sometimes its good to get people with highly polarized personalities in a room who also happen to share overlapping areas of expertise and professional opinions on things, so you can arrive at solutions that benefit everyone. That's the relationship you two had on Mythbusters.

SoI used to do photography, my coworker and I did not get along at all like outside of work. I found her completely arrogant and obnoxious. She found me loud and annoying. We clashed. However, both of us had, I would say identical work ethics and a very similar creative mindset. So when we were actually working together we could get stuff done faster than anyone. We could be more productive. We could also come up with the most crazy ideas. And yes sometimes you could hear us just straight up screaming at each other. But there was a weird sense of trust that came with that because you can't just scream at people and they scream back and two people can be completely fine with that. That takes a weird sense of trust and respect. I do miss her.

An Organizational Development curriculum I once went through taught that teams are often more effective when partnered with someone you respect professionally but are not close, personal friends with. In those cases, you bring less emotional baggage to the relationship, and you can be more honest and technically focused in your feedback when you are striving to earn the person’s respect, rather than their affection. And the term the trainer used for this? “The Hyneman-Savage Paradox.”

I have used a similar analogy about jobs, reinforced by a work experience I had. I worked at a company led by a VERY strong personality, and in a nutshell, you either meshed with her mindset or you didn’t. I did not fit in there AT ALL, and I really quite dislike her on a personal level (and vice versa!). But I tell people, and I am absolutely serious in this, that I would not hesitate to recommend the company to a client, because I know they do good work and are honest and trustworthy. So to the analogy: “Employment is like a marriage: you can have two parties that are excellent in their own rights, but a terrible match for each other. And that’s not a condemnation of either.”

One of my few regrets is no longer working with that guy, doing amazing things no one else wanted to do, and well. Adam you are 100% correct.

The lab looks so much different today. Instead of a giant diesel fan array, we have a proper wind tunnel with electric fans now. There is a 360 degree picture walkthrough of the lab somewhere on the internet if anyone was curious what it looks like now.

People always have to dramatize everything to the most extreme version of events, like "They secretly DESPISE each other!!!!!"

I think most people would understand this dynamic if they really think about it. I've had lots of colleagues at work who I have had a great working relationship with, would think of them as pleasant people, and would look forward to particular tasks with them, yet who I'd not really think of inviting to my home for dinner, or go to their parties. "Pleasant workmate who isn't really a friend outside that environment" is a common enough concept that I wonder why we don't have an English word to describe it!

To be fair, Adam was much more blunt about Jamie years ago, especially after the show ended and he seemed like he was glad to not work with him again. However, as the years have gone by, Adam has softened his view of Jamie. He's certainly toned down how he describes the conflict they had together. There was that one episode where Jamie was counting a stopwatch weirdly and Adam dropped his affable on-screen persona had an awkward argument with him about the count. Surprised they kept it in the edit.

It's so refreshing to hear that despite all the conflicts over methodology and approaches, that the integrity that I felt watching the show back in the day was genuine. It can take a lot to turn down some sponsors, I'm sure there was a lot of zeroes and more than a little persistence on their end, but to know that the MythBusters crew was more concerned with doing things properly instead of profitably, that's a real shining pearl right there.

It's usually some producer saying, "Get us that sponsor and sell their products, or we'll find someone who will!!"

On the beat about integrity, I honestly feel that one of the biggest reasons I always looked up to guys like Adam and Jamie and their team is because they always had their integrity. The show always appeared to me as being driven purely by science, curiosity, and having fun figuring it out. While I totally understand that people need money and I cannot/will not fault them for taking the sponsorships and doing sponsored content on their shows/channels, I also cannot deny that I naturally hold people and shows in a higher regard when they don't take those offers. As a viewer, it felt more genuine. Like the show isn't "just a job" to you and that you really cared about what you were doing with it. I love Jamie and Adam and even if the chemistry wasn't always there, it was always a pleasure to watch them work together.
