I could listen to this conversation for a week straight and not come close to scratching the surface of my interest in it. I grew up in a religious cult that was/is anti-science (they've been in the news a lot during the pandemic) and was astounded at what I could test on my own once I left the cult (and at how horrible my old "brothers and sisters" could treat people who left). This pushed me to go to college. I'm now 38 years old and am in an Aerospace Engineering program at University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS). I wake up every day with a renewed awe of the body of understanding of science and its implications on our society. My professor, Dr. Lynnane George, was the Mission Director for one of the Titan IV rockets and I've recently been working on a project with Trip Carter, who was on the team that implemented the use of the Cesium Clock in satellites (formerly known as NAVSTAR, now known as GPS). I feel an immense sense of impostor syndrome every time I'm around people of this caliber, but I am incredibly excited for my future and the new knowledge I will gain tomorrow. I have recently been helping with STEM Outreach through GSTEM, Cool Science, AIAA, Nasa DemoSat, and Nasa GLEE. Thank you for doing this. Thank you for making it available to people like me. How can I help? I would love to be a part of the future of this science outreach.
Far out... much respect. And I thank you for the term "imposter syndrome" as strangely despite being 50-something years old, I had not run into the term previously. It struck "home" due to a vague group of feelings that I've had... not identified clearly or related to each other as a group unto themselves... er, what I mean to say is, or perhaps better put: I am a musician... or so they all tell me. Peace be upon you, sir.
@@JeffEdmondson This was on April 28th of this year.The show was rescheduled due to Covid twice. It was in my neighborhood. I still am pinching myself! You need to search upcoming shows. I also bought tickets for Neil in Philly. It's not a Star Talk show but him himself. I can die happily now because I was able to be in the room with my favorite Scientist,and Astrophysicist, EVER!!! 😁
That actor for Benjamin deserves an Oscar, very well done. He knew his business and still kept the act up perfectly. Quality scripting and improvisation.
What a stupendous way to take the life of not only the life and scientific exploits of one of the most important and interesting people of all time, (allegedly, as Simon Whistler would say 😂😂😂) but to also bring to light the hard work of the team of people from Yale working to preserve and present his legacy for all of the world to see and revere. Thanks so much Chuck, Ellen Cohn, Benjamin Franklin (Mitchell Cramer) and Neil for the wonderful work done here to bring it to my fellow partakers, and also dum-dums such as myself, in an unexpected and entertaining talk/show. Chuck and Neil, you always bring the hits! Wow, what a giant run-on sentence filled paragraph I produced there. Told you I’m a big dummy! I never comment on any videos though and so it just goes to show how much I LOVED this episode, but all of Star Talk!!!
I'm at the first break and I've got to take a break and tell you that this is a highly entertaining and enlightening way of presenting Ben to us. Absolutely awesome. Thankyou. Now, back to Ben and company ! Chucks humor is always good, Your humor is great, Ellen had some great facts, and Mitchel was a perfect representation of my old friend Ben Franklin.
Thank you so much for doing live shows. I've watched every episode since I don't know when, but I really like the live shows. There's something about it. And seeing Ben Franklin was great, I loved his stories. My favorite experiment was the key and kite.
Now, there's a thought. If you get jet lag from travelling through space on a jet, then do you get "space lag" when you travel through time? When you land in the future, you keep feeling like you're 5 metres to the left of where you actually are.
I’ve noticed that Neil tends to, well, speak over his guests a fair bit. Like at certain times when Ellen was about to say something Neil kinda steamrolls over her. He interrupts Mr. “Franklin” a lot too. I understand he is clearly very passionate about his field of study, but I mean, let the woman speak, for crying out loud man 😂😂😂
Great episode. It was, dare I say it? A electrifying episode! I was hoping for Ben to say "Who is this Mitchell Kramer?" when Neil said his name at the end haha keeping up the illusion.
I've experienced the sensation of electrons storing in my body before a lightning strike. My brothers and I were in our house watching a lightning storm from a living room window. The hairs on my neck and arms suddenly stood up, and about a second later a lightning bolt struck. I don't know where or how close it struck because the intensity of the flash blinded and disoriented us for about 6 seconds. It was like getting punched in the head by light.
The format of this StarTalk live show is an amazing idea! Imagine talking about Isaac Newton in London like this! This was very entertaining and highly informative.
Great Idea Niel to bring all these lovely Respected guys togethert! just A little bit A little bit control my favorit comedian guy i love, because we love to hear more of Science! Thank you ALL!!!!!!!
Btw what Franklyn got out of observations of a flickering candle was what he later incorporated into his fireplace and is what is widely known as a draft which is built into all fireplaces.
Hi. I'm going to admit i'm one of the 6.999999 billion bipedal, opposable thumb dummies slithering around our earth. I work 12 hours a day just to stay alive. I have no ambition past pay day. But! There is something mesmerizing about listening and hearing someone talk about things so far out of your reach yet so unbelievable interesting and brain absorbing. I enjoy the therapy of listening to smart people.
Btw. I have small group of people I would like to have lunch with one day. ND Tyson, cast of Jurassic Park, Winston Churchill, Einstein, Adam Savage and Stephen Spielberg.
We went from a keen observant scientist to a guy who looked straight at the Sun. What happened?! The last line was the best, we are currently driving straight over the cliff.
@@davidt3956 I was not comparing in regards to their political status but more on sort of a cultural zeitgeist shift. What once considered a marvel of human ingenuity is now considered, not by all but more than enough, to be something that’s somehow arrogant, hostile and dangerous.
I've tried to find the actor that played Benjamin Franklin here, but I only found Michael Douglas's version. No doubt this man out did Michael Douglas in the tv Show Franklin on Apple tv. The actor here, embodied Franklin and played the character perfectly! "You've read my letters much more recent than I." Amazing inprove haha
A Fing great show pardon the French 🤪 But the sound is a bit low So if any one could just adjust the sound on the video it would be great 👍 As if the show wasn't I mean yeeeey I'm watching on my phone and are not able to push the sound any higher cuss I got a bad set of earphones and I'm sure that other have the same problem so if you could just upload it with better sound I would love it Thanks for a great show and great fun with science 😀👍 Just saying 🇧🇻
I likely made this comment before. But I love that Neil pulled a 'Bill & Ted' move for this live StarTalk by bringing THE Benjamin Franklin ......impersonator. :p As close as we can get for now!
Why is it that every video of Neil's is set to the lowest volume possible? So Damn frustrating having to turn my volume up to 70% just to hear it!!! Grr!
Sirs, I am writing from Zurich. I wanted to send an email but neither the email address on your channel nor the contact info on your website function. Pls. can you provide a proper link or information about how to reach you? Thanks!
I have a question about time. Let's say, that my friend boarded a spaceship. Like a rally big one. And let's say, that i watch him, from a very far distance, as he fly by at the speed of light. Do I see him flying as an frozen statue? Because, as we know, time stops for a particle at the speed of light, but not for an observer.
Which is your favorite experiment of Ben’s?
Eating the most chocolate ice cream
Jerry didn't like...
lightning rod
leader explanations that show hyperdimension of the two forces in a lighting strike, I'm interested in the mechanics and possible virtual particles. very interesting episode, well done.
Hands down the one he actually might not have perform, the kite and the key. It is both disappointing as well as reassuring.
The $100 bill 🤣
Neil and Chuck for 2024!
Definitely got my vote!!!
Here here!💚💚🖖
Theocracies wouldn't allow intellectuals in power
I would President them.
I would vote for Neil as president with Ben Franklin as the vise president! Neil is awesome I like chuck as well but Neil is the draw.

I absolutely love it as well. The only thing I don't love about it is constantly hearing the lady constantly smacking and making mouth noises.
I managed to make the show with my brother and I gotta say seeing Neil walk out on stage was surreal 💯🙌
I was there with my dad and one of my brothers. It was a dazzling experience.
That's awesome. I would love to go to one of his shows.
i am jealous lol
I was there too! It definitely was an awesome show!
When was this? Is there somewhere where they list the next time they have a live show?

Ahh, StarTalk. Life is good again
honestly man
@@joseimpact whaaat?
@MichaelC Copeland Sr....this must be one of your favorite shows big bro?
This is my favorite episode of star talk! I think you should do this with other historical figures in science. Impersonator and all!
@@HopDavid im unfamiliar with the false historys you are talking about, what do you mean by that? But yeah I agree Isaac Newton would be awesome
I’m guessing Dr. Tyson wants to with Isaac Newton & Albert Einstein.
@@HopDavid Sounds like a start of a fantastic series: Neil and Chuck's Excellent Adventure! Oh wait...
And talk about his slaves too.

Like one with his man Issac. Now that one would be great to watch! Plus, for all the Chuck nay sayers out there, you rock!
Was there front row. So much fun. Dr. Tyson was so nice to us before the show. What a great night.
This was WAAAAYYYY more enjoyable then it should have been
This was so beautifully done. Thank you Startalk 💙
listening to it for the second time in less than 24 hours.. such a masterpiece. I am looking forward to more episodes like that one.
This episode was so cool! They need to do more like this!
We’re listening!
Just loved the Apricot tree story. If I had time machine I'd love to go back and talk to Ben for hours.
Mitchel Kramer is wonderfully intelligent and knowledgeable in his interpretation of Franklin
Man this was by far one of the best episodes I've seen on star talk! Love Neil's laugh it's so contagious
Great job, Ben!! You did an amazing show considering the jetlag of a 250 year flight
Now, there's a thought.
If you get jet lag from travelling through space on a jet, then do you get "space lag" when you travel through time?
When you land in the future, you keep feeling like you're 5 metres to the left of where you actually are.
Ben:”How did I fly & what is jetlag?”😁
@@klaxoncowThat sounds like it'd feel so weird.
you guys keep talking over that kind lady. Other than that great episode. glad to see chuck there.
I thought this was a reupload that I somehow missed the first time. Then I heard Will smith and slapologist 😂
Same!
Same here
Neil is national treasure 💯
This was great! I learned so much. Ben Franklin was always my favorite founding father. A brilliant man. Mitchel Cramer was wonderful!
Absolutely Love you guys!!!!!!
Love you and respect you..all the best from kingdom of Morocco
Waiting since ever!!!
Best gift ever after pandemic
It was a great show, but did anyone else get bothered by Ellen getting cut off a few times. I love u all!
I’ve noticed that Neil tends to, well, speak over his guests a fair bit. Like at certain times when Ellen was about to say something Neil kinda steamrolls over her. He interrupts Mr. “Franklin” a lot too. I understand he is clearly very passionate about his field of study, but I mean, let the woman speak, for crying out loud man 😂😂😂
I was at this show and it was amazing to finally see Neil deGrasse Tyson in person. This was a great show and Chuck Nice was great too.
I love this. They should go on a tour together.
Chuck, you are freaking hilarious. Love it when you make NDT just keel over. Dynamic duo!
Neal, you are an absolute inspiration. Please #neverstop
Chuck is so great!!! He keeps the talks alive. 🤣🤣🤣
Great episode. It was, dare I say it? A electrifying episode! I was hoping for Ben to say "Who is this Mitchell Kramer?" when Neil said his name at the end haha keeping up the illusion.
Amazing content
You guys are such an inspiration of knowledge and wisdom, you helped change my vision about the world and how it works, thank you so much!
Electricity experiments for sure! Natural Philosopher Extraordinaire!
The best StarTalk ever!
An absolute outstanding presentation!!

This is AMAZING I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!
What a wonderful episode !!
thanks for sharing, NDT.
At last, in the final 10-15 minutes, Ellen Cohn was able to speak and complete most of her sentences and thoughts.
my thought exactly. sadly, I think this episode was badly produced. the cast is superb and it could’ve been an excellent episode
The format of this StarTalk live show is an amazing idea! Imagine talking about Isaac Newton in London like this! This was very entertaining and highly informative.
Freaking brilliant! Loved it! ❤️❤️
Great Idea Niel to bring all these lovely Respected guys togethert! just A little bit A little bit control my favorit comedian guy i love, because we love to hear more of Science! Thank you ALL!!!!!!!
Knowledge and comedy, you make my day
bravo. more more. thank you all. and for us living far away to be part of this experience via internet. thanks. 👏👏👏
Btw what Franklyn got out of observations of a flickering candle was what he later incorporated into his fireplace and is what is widely known as a draft which is built into all fireplaces.
Love chuck, he's a good man!
Loved it from beginning to end😍🫶🏆
Yay chuck. 💖
Man I love this so much it's the best thing to watch these days
This was awesome 🤩
Ahh. I missed these so much.
I watched this live!
Thanks for the good show.You have outdone yourself.
MASTERPIECE ⚡️
Oh wow I bet chuck is so loving this 😍
Absolutely AWESOME 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💗
Brilliant and very interesting way to share this information. Thanks for this invaluable show!
This is amazing. I had no idea how impactful Benjamin Franklin truly was, especially when it came to politics. Very interesting.

You forgot that Ben Franklin also had a newspaper. And that he used to make essentially the funny papers in his newspaper
Very interesting discussion. 👍🏼
When are you guys going to invite Nikola Tesla for a live interview?????
Great show!! Throw some name supers up every now and then. :)
the audio quality is quite poor/quiet can you boost it?
😆 LOL cool , you brought back Ben Franklin 😉 . Ben is my ancestor 🌳 on my mother's side .😁
"Drive safe. Keep looking up"
Umm, Neil, if they keep looking up while driving, that's not safe driving.
When does this host?
We went from a keen observant scientist to a guy who looked straight at the Sun. What happened?! The last line was the best, we are currently driving straight over the cliff.
You do realize Franklin wasn't president right? Also, what he does have in common with Mango Mussolini is that both are horndogs.

I'm happy to say I've learned something today. ;O)-
This present day Ben was a joy to listen to. The actual Ben would have to be a stop, once Neil develops time travel.
Wow its cool!👍
Neill needs and interrupt button so when he does it someone can press a button to call him out and let the lady continue. Jeez man.
That's kinda NDT's thing.
I agree 1000%
Great Show, Folks!
Excellent.

Thanks for a great show and great fun with science 😀👍
Just saying 🇧🇻
Is the volume really low for everyone, or just me?
For everyone
It's really low AND also really high when Chuck or NDT yell.
It was weird but the actor did a good job and Chuck threw him some layups.
Great one more life show #NMG #GüEE
👍
I likely made this comment before. But I love that Neil pulled a 'Bill & Ted' move for this live StarTalk by bringing THE Benjamin Franklin ......impersonator. :p
As close as we can get for now!
Tyson really needs to stop talking over and blatantly interrupting guests when he's heading panels.
Finally!!!
can you guys come to california 🥺
50:38 history repeats itself. There are too many Americans today like this
Neil , please react and comment on two Nightwidh songs “Shoemaker” and “Greatest Show on Earth”.
Great
I don't really understand how Benjamin Franklin is there, are they using a pepper's ghost? 😢
Audio is so low... I could hardly hear😔
Why is it that every video of Neil's is set to the lowest volume possible? So Damn frustrating having to turn my volume up to 70% just to hear it!!! Grr!
