Hank, I want to thank you. Your work is always inspiring, but today is particularly great. Rick has done the kind of work that I'm trying to start doing in a different field, and a few of his sentences just eloquently spoke to the kinds of things I've been trying to express for not a short period of time. Thank you.
Incredible video. I am a multimedia artist myself, and I've done work in traditional drawing, painting, video art, 3D/2D animation, and modeling. It certainly is fascinating how accessible these fields are to people now, and there truly is no limit to how we interact with the world around us.
this is definately the best most professional science channel on youtube, hope you get a lot more recognition so you guys can expand your show as much as possible. can never get enough of this stuff :)
I love what he's saying about integrating things like the arts, technology, and sciences. I've always been a jack-of-all-trades, and the idea of combining stuff has always appealed to me.
I lover her enthusiasm! Those are the kind of people who communicate the best in my opinion...the passion of the information they have to share it with others. Okay, maybe I missed my calling as a teacher ;)
Great show. Just a note for teachers: it is amazing how many scientists, authors, politicians, etc. are willing to talk to classes especially if there is a close tie to who they are and the class. Of course in my day it was by phone rather than Skype.
I'm working on my doctorate at a university in the Caribbean, and it's very common for people to use Skype to get lectures from professors in the US. It's simply amazing how connected we've become.
great episode! I just came home back from phisics class, really frustrated about the way the class goes, how they manage to kill my interest in science and innovation. I was pondering the option of dropping college and become a "freelance student" and this was really relevant. I just need to find a community of people that feel the same way as I do. Thanks a lot!
Great interview; brilliant guy and lovely to see somebody with grey hair (like me) whose job it is not only to stay ahead of the curve, but to push internet community as a potential warm and inspiring place. Just excellent.
A bit of that can be learned online, but the presentation can make a lot of difference and really have a much larger effect on you, as well as back-and-forth between peers, when it is guided effectively by a tutor.
John has said this before in a Swoodilypoopers video about the positivity of being in a community of learners or of creative people. Be around them, talk to them, discuss ideas and it's a really positive thing.
Nice segway at 7:42 Hank :) this is what makes yt creators more appealing than mainstream media. Real people doing real things making real differences in society. Keep up the awesome work Mr. Green, loving the talkshow side of scishow as well as all your crash course lessons, I have learned and been inspired to do so much thanks to guys like you and John. Would lobe to see something like crash course physics/math or even something dedicated to cosmology. Nerdfighters. Eradicating worldsuck DFTBA
As far as I know this is the 21th Talk Show, so they number each "series" independently (I guess it helps us to recommend to someone like "hey scishow talk show #21 was amazing!")
One of the classes I think should be taught in schools is "How to find what you need/want and filter out the stuff you don't." Knowing stuff is great, but knowing how and where to get that stuff is perhaps even more important.
I'm 20 and i still believe a personal connection through technology and the internet is really rare. It's a fantastic tool though and it's only getting better.
As Jessi described the veiled chameleon's chromatophores it made me think of gels on theater lights. Back in the day a technician would physically slide the gels onto the lights to make them blue or red and use different primary color combinations to make secondary colors. Nowadays there are automated ones so a technician can switch gels from behind a keyboard. It's like the chameleon has cellular lighting gels, and that's really awesome!
The creator of My Name is Earl and Raising Hope graduated from the mass communications department at my university (which I am currently a part of as an undergrad student) and he is skyping in on Friday to give a talk at an alumni event put on by our department. Technology is cool.
Absolutely, You must remember that it is easier to express yourself on the internet as we, for the most part, are anonymous. It is a form of coming out of your shell or showing a separate side. This isn't exclusive to message boards but to people who make videos as well. I am typically the person that does not talk to anyone and is kinda slow... On the internet it is easier to talk and express what i feel in matters, heck i am in various scientific and political groups!
Hmm... I probably shouldn't have stayed up all night watching scishow considering I have an A-level chemistry class in 45 minutes! Damn you scishow for being so addictive !
In regards to the availability of information from the internet, it is true that anything said in a lecture can be learned online, but a lecturer can guide your learning in a way that develops you in a certain way, which can also build from the back-and-forth that you can get. This maybe doesn't work for every subject, but as a musician quite far into my university career, a lot of what we do is learned through guided studies. The teachers don't tell us the information as much as how to think.
I really enjoyed learning more about the chameleon, especially since I watch the show T.U.F.F. Puppy. The chameleon on that moves both of his eyes in different directions as well.
It's a good point Rick Hughes makes that the 21st century is an integrated century where doing one thing well on it's own doesn't make you, but it's framed in a 20th century mindset. Every job is a mix of skills and the disruptive technology is changing the mix of skills. Take Yoyo Ma: he hasn't just worked to be a great classical musician. He's also adapted to television and radio. He's also worked to collaborate across the music industry to create interest. It was a new mix of skills.
Professor Rick's idea of an integrator, someone who combines different fields together rather than specializes in one field reminds me of the idea of "multipotentialite," or the idea from the website Puttylike on the trend of people finding ways to combine two or more interests into a career, if anyone wants to learn from that. The book "Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World," also comes to mind, if anyone wants to look at that too.
my friends male veiled chameleon, his name is Google, is 19 inches from tip to tail but more interesting, he's 7 years old. He's in fairly good health too, but I guess 4 years isn't a hard line.
Come for Hank holding animals. Why couldn't he hold twirly? I know in the interview with Jessi and Agusto she mentioned there's some animals he can't hold for permit reasons. What's the reason here?
It could just be that Twirly isn't comfortable being handled by strangers. The animals have a trust bond with Jessi, but it will take them a lot more behavioral training and rehab before they get comfortable around others.
he people at sci show could you guys please do a episode on Chinese miles. This is a measurement that varies dependent on the effort to cover the distance. so a Chinese mile up a mountain is considered longer than down. I find the extremely intriguing and I think it would make a great episode. Thank you for the great content you guys have been making.
Follow-up: the reason freshmen take to the new technology and new skill mix is because they don't have to unlearn the old one. Sometimes my grandma marvels at how much faster I pick up computer skills than her, but when she looks at a computer she's trying to fit it in her framework of Ditto and fax and PC Junior. For me it's fresh without any baggage.
For some things, there's wikibooks: Pick a topic, read a wiki-style book about it. Then go to youtube, watch videos of people talking about the thing. Then go to the actual wikipedia, read up on the topic. But yeah, for the really indepth stuff you probably won't get around good ol' books. They also explain a lot of things a lot better.
They generally have one pattern/texture and it can appear or disappear into one smooth color, conflicting answers may come from the fact that depending on how much of their pattern shows up can create many unique looks. but their color changes aren't dramatic and if they are your doing something wrong.
Haven't they shown that Chameleons don't use chromatapohors like octopus, but rather an ability to expand and contract crystaline structures in their skin that then reflect different wavelengths of light, more like the nanostructures of a butterfly wing?
Quite right in principle, and FYI; e.g stands for 'exempli gratia' in latin - quite literally translated to 'for example' - so you already have the 'for' right there! :)
I used to breed that species of chameleon. Started when somebody gave me a clutch of eggs. They are impressive. I sold my last one off some time ago. They don't live very long compared to other reptiles. Something to look at, but not handle. Chameleons stress easy.
ah the old youtube treks you start to watch some little vlogger you follow and then it 4 hours later and youre watching a koala eat to dubstep. it is a ever ending search for the final boss of the internet
Upcoming technology's that are in development, 3D printers, Virtual Reality headsets and devices (Oculus Rift, Virtuix Omni), and I don't have a very long list BUT seriously check out the rift and omni it'll blow your mind :P
i would presume it can be either, like when people balance themselves (walking its automatic, but across a tightrope or other tricky surface we know to balance)
Yea, someone should start an experiment with that in mind. You know, some university which sets up a website which just links information in the order you'd learn it anyway and let the students do it all by themselves. Wonder how that'd turn out.
I had two Veiled Chameleons, a few years back, and, um, I don't think they can change patterns? The colour changes aren't actually all that dramatic, and I never, like, paid all that much attention to the patterns, but I certainly never saw or noticed pattern changes. Hope that helps!
Not to sound creepy, clingy or weird... But its people like the blog brothers and many others who put their entire heart on youtube have shown me that this internet place is more personal than any television show. Each person can actively help change amazing media by comments and sharing videos. Technology isnt something unnatural, it is a beautiful expression of our very humanity... Not to sound 2deep4u. >_>
Mr. Green Is it possible that education will just become more "Lab" Based? I am a student welder, and whether or not I can get the information online, I NEED hands-on practice to do a job correctly. Your thoughts? Thank you.
That chameleon gave me a fright for a second there when i thought it sent it's tongue out at Hank... but it was only the outline of the video link annotation boxes. I still jumped a little though. -_-'
I love scishow. I wish more people were watching this. Keep doing it Hank.
Gosh I love Jessi so much! Her enthusiasm about all aspects about EVERY animal is just so catching!!!
Hank, I want to thank you. Your work is always inspiring, but today is particularly great. Rick has done the kind of work that I'm trying to start doing in a different field, and a few of his sentences just eloquently spoke to the kinds of things I've been trying to express for not a short period of time.

Thanks Rick. Where would We, the viewers, be without you.
this is definately the best most professional science channel on youtube, hope you get a lot more recognition so you guys can expand your show as much as possible. can never get enough of this stuff :)
Rick Hughes is awesome. Passionate people drive the world.
I really enjoyed having a guest who was talking about different topics. Rick Hughes was great and so was Twirly!
His transitions are improving. Good for you Hank, continuously refining your art.
I love what he's saying about integrating things like the arts, technology, and sciences. I've always been a jack-of-all-trades, and the idea of combining stuff has always appealed to me.
I always get excited whenever Jessie comes on- She has a really cool attitude and brings on the most interesting animals! :)
It is something they do without thinking about it, but they know their doing it. Kind of like feeling your heartbeat.
these talk shows need to be longer, great stuff!
I love the vast potential the internet brings us. Now we get to work towards harnessing that potential.
I lover her enthusiasm! Those are the kind of people who communicate the best in my opinion...the passion of the information they have to share it with others. Okay, maybe I missed my calling as a teacher ;)
This is why I support Sci Show with Subbable...good content! (and Crash Course!)
Love these talk shows, amazing!
Great show. Just a note for teachers: it is amazing how many scientists, authors, politicians, etc. are willing to talk to classes especially if there is a close tie to who they are and the class. Of course in my day it was by phone rather than Skype.
I'm working on my doctorate at a university in the Caribbean, and it's very common for people to use Skype to get lectures from professors in the US. It's simply amazing how connected we've become.
I really love when she comes on the show
Rick's interview was really interesting. Thank you both. Also, Jessi is wonderful.
great episode! I just came home back from phisics class, really frustrated about the way the class goes, how they manage to kill my interest in science and innovation. I was pondering the option of dropping college and become a "freelance student" and this was really relevant. I just need to find a community of people that feel the same way as I do.

even though there are les viewers on your talk show dos not mean there are no fans watching it ;) keep up the good work Hank love to watch more of it
I like Rick. He's awesome.
I LOVED the chameleon, Twirly!! She's adorable! :-)
i love jessi!
sci show talk show gets lesser views than the normal sci-show but they are my favorite ones!

Look at the clock. You gotta have a passion to put in hours like this man.
Professor Rick's idea of an integrator, someone who combines different fields together rather than specializes in one field reminds me of the idea of "multipotentialite," or the idea from the website Puttylike on the trend of people finding ways to combine two or more interests into a career, if anyone wants to learn from that.

my friends male veiled chameleon, his name is Google, is 19 inches from tip to tail but more interesting, he's 7 years old. He's in fairly good health too, but I guess 4 years isn't a hard line.
I think rick was the best guest yet.
Come for Hank holding animals. Why couldn't he hold twirly?

god these are the best videos of scishow lol
Chameleon's are incredible, beautiful work of evolution. c:
The classIc path of knowledge to wisdom. Don't be fooled into thinking it's easy. Cool yes but not easy.
Hope you all had a happy Mole day!
he people at sci show could you guys please do a episode on Chinese miles.

I vote for "Are you ready to see my creature!?"
Indeed you are!
Haven't they shown that Chameleons don't use chromatapohors like octopus, but rather an ability to expand and contract crystaline structures in their skin that then reflect different wavelengths of light, more like the nanostructures of a butterfly wing?
Jesse is so adorable with her enthusiasm! Haha it really does rub off on the audience :)
Did Hank level up, because he's freaking massive in this video! Seriously, his head is like, 15-20% bigger than either Jessi or Rick's.
i really think that some of the older people in our society need to see the first part of this video
Further, I think a quick recap of a section can be a great signpost that you're transitioning to a new section. Might be worth a try :)
I would very much like if this was discussed. Again, thank you sir.
When Hank said 'Jessi has appeared' In my head I heard 'A wild Jessi has appeared!'
It's super effective!
"The Veiled Chameleon" awesome! XD
9:09 - I knew why! You know how I knew why ? Because of QI !! When Hank said "camouflage" I wanted the QI alarm so bad! lol
Love chameleons! Also, circuits.
Chameleon are amazing. Can I have Chameleon's skin as TV panel.
Their dactyl orientation is also unique, more like a koala than any other lizard I can think of.
Quite right in principle, and FYI; e.g stands for 'exempli gratia' in latin - quite literally translated to 'for example' - so you already have the 'for' right there! :)

ah the old youtube treks you start to watch some little vlogger you follow and then it 4 hours later and youre watching a koala eat to dubstep. it is a ever ending search for the final boss of the internet
tech=art
Congrats
Jesse is looking very nice, love the hair! :)
How long does it take you to produce an episode of sci-show talk show? Are there multiple takes? It would be interesting if you had a live audience.
Hank I can't believe you went to the exploratorium with Derek and Henry and Vi...and you didn't invite me!!
Awesome
Awe is this the last episode of the SciShow Talk Show? I was really getting into them :(
No they are 21 more...
Upcoming technology's that are in development, 3D printers, Virtual Reality headsets and devices (Oculus Rift, Virtuix Omni), and I don't have a very long list BUT seriously check out the rift and omni it'll blow your mind :P
Jessi is awesome.
You went To UofM?!?! That is crazy!!! Makes me feel like i have hope even though i live in montana. .
i would presume it can be either, like when people balance themselves (walking its automatic, but across a tightrope or other tricky surface we know to balance)
Yea, someone should start an experiment with that in mind. You know, some university which sets up a website which just links information in the order you'd learn it anyway and let the students do it all by themselves. Wonder how that'd turn out.
I like Rick, Rick's nice.
I was just about to comment that he reminds me of steve jobs and someone already has :) im glad im not alone
How amazing is the creature introduced around 8 minutes in? (and the Chameleon's pretty damn cool too :P )
They're brothers!
They run a channel together called vlogbrothers.
I love the animal guests with Jessi mor than some of the human guests XD
I had two Veiled Chameleons, a few years back, and, um, I don't think they can change patterns? The colour changes aren't actually all that dramatic, and I never, like, paid all that much attention to the patterns, but I certainly never saw or noticed pattern changes.
Hope that helps!
is the "studio" Animal Wonders/Jessi and Augusto's house?
Yeah that's their house
Would you possibly be able to make a video on OCD?
Not to sound creepy, clingy or weird... But its people like the blog brothers and many others who put their entire heart on youtube have shown me that this internet place is more personal than any television show. Each person can actively help change amazing media by comments and sharing videos. Technology isnt something unnatural, it is a beautiful expression of our very humanity... Not to sound 2deep4u. >_>
Hank, you should do an episode on Camel Spiders, unless you already have please link it to me?
Me too!!!
its called SciShow
Mr. Green
Is it possible that education will just become more "Lab" Based? I am a student welder, and whether or not I can get the information online, I NEED hands-on practice to do a job correctly. Your thoughts? Thank you.
That chameleon gave me a fright for a second there when i thought it sent it's tongue out at Hank... but it was only the outline of the video link annotation boxes.
I still jumped a little though. -_-'
