Tyson seems like the guy that makes road trips fun

@APSXX 8 років тому

He brings the weed.

@RajitRoy_NR 8 років тому

+Simran Kaur But actually I want Neil to do more of these science talks rather than a tiger vs peanut...

@popc5245 8 років тому

+Rajit Roy tiger vs peanut IS science!

@Will-cv6xv 8 років тому

+Atinderpal Singh In a recent AMA on Reddit he said he's never done weed and doesn't ever intend to. Probably the worst thing to tell Redditors. He apparently likes wine tasting. Makin' Papa Carl Sagan disappointed there, Neil!!!

@popc5245 8 років тому

Arthur Dent Sagan liked to do weed?

@shkotayd9749 8 років тому

There is HOPE for the world when a scientist gets THIS kind of reception :D

@nacirema2710 8 років тому

+Shkotay D So true, Lucy :)

@FroMaestro 8 років тому

+Shkotay D he's a celebrity at this point in his career. Stop kidding yourselves, lol

@shkotayd9749 8 років тому

FroMaestro Duh. Really?

@FroMaestro 8 років тому

Shkotay D so you agree he's a celebrity. At which point, it becomes less accurate to say 'a scientist' is getting this popular-level acclamation. He's done outreach, and he's getting paid in props. The end. Beyond that, this cult of personality ('audience was in heaven'; 'made science popular again' etc.) is cringey. 'Science', insofar as research infrastructure remains profitable, is not going anywhere. Look at CROs, lol. And the Bible belt has nothing to do with that. Money talks louder. It sounds to me like you're just happy that your team is surging ahead in the culture wars. And that's fine. Go team :). But there's no need to fetishize science along the way. It's basic attentiveness, diligence & integrity...writ large.

@shkotayd9749 8 років тому

FroMaestro So I agree he is a scientist who has made his fame by popularizing science. He's getting paid? Is he supposed to be a monk doing this for free? Frankly the less bible belt and Osteens we have and the more of these guys, the better. Science is indeed profitable, but the VAST majority of the worlds population has little or no knowledge of any fields of science or in fact what science is, and we place such people in charge of powerful technologies. Sagan had a lot to say on that.

@muskylemon2310 8 років тому

I love Dr. Tyson...bless his heart, he just can't not-Science. "Colbert - Tyson 2016"

@AnEvolvingApe 8 років тому

+Nick Scott My love for NDT is stronger than a black hole and my family combined.

@muskylemon2310 8 років тому

Big_Potato_dad he's an astrophysicist who makes the American public give a fuck about astrophysics. Can't blame him for sinking just a little lower than you need him to.

@AnEvolvingApe 8 років тому

Big_Potato_dad Who is your favorite science expert/personality so you can help me understand why you think NDT is an idiot?

@1324Potato 8 років тому

J Kim I have a PhD in mathematics and I'm working on a second in marine biology. Ndt traded science for fame. Have you even read his earlier papers? They are extremely hypocritical.

@davidmanhart1 8 років тому

+Nick Scott He is Carl Sagan Junior. Sagan actually invited NDT to stay with him for a week when NDT was in high school. He had written a letter to Sagan expressing his love of astrophysics. Sagan not only gave him a tour of his lab, but hosted NDT for about a week in his own home!

@TheZavinskiStories 8 років тому

Friday Night Fights is such a creative, genius yet simple idea! That should be funny forever if they keep getting great matchups and creative character amalgams like Jordan with the Shag lamp lol!

@groundcontroltouncletom953 8 років тому

+EZ64 the shag lamp if you rub it austin powers will come out

@frank5520 8 років тому

+EZ64 Just a bit inspired by ERB ;)

Stephen mouthing "I love him so much" after Paul left its still one of the sweetest things he has done on the show

@Logictrumpssuperstition 8 років тому

People like NDT should be on TV so much more. Love this guy. Always teaches you something new.

@SentinelPrimek 8 років тому

Why are they calling the 9th planet Planet X instead of Planet IX?

@mongolchiuud8931 8 років тому

+SentinelPrimek Planet X is just a popular term. "X" btw is for mysterious or unknown in the scientific community and it doesnt mean 10 btw. just pointing that out.

@XxRestlessGamerxX 8 років тому

+Bob Belson (JEW-JITSU) Oh shit, I've been calling Malcolm X, Malcom 10 for all these years!

@Whelmed. 8 років тому

+Mjolnor - And I just finished a really good 10-rated movie about a pizza delivery guy.

@saadb4444 8 років тому

+Mjolnor X doesn't mean mystery or 10 for Malcom X, it means "ex". He converted to Islam and like many Black people had the last name of his great great grandparent's Christian Slave Owner (Slaves didn't have last names). So he changed to X , short for "ex"

@CrystalsandCandles 8 років тому

+SentinelPrimek ahhh... Clever

too bad for them i am el cheapo, eating those walmart brand peanuts and cereal, ha kakaka

@alany3805 8 років тому

John Smith right on. i don't eat frosted flake cereal cuz it is super bad for health, with high fructose corn syrup and what not. cinnamon cereal is much much healthier. personally i think Mr. peanut is very overpriced.

@potadrone5496 8 років тому

+John Smith safeway for me

@1stb1 8 років тому

MexiCant 98 don't have one of those here. there are jewels and shnucks and meijers though. their parking lots are pretty empty compared to walmart, kekeke. i just hope the low price doesn't reflect the safety and quality of the food.

@alany3805 8 років тому

MexiCant 98 safeway is expensive, but the quality is top notch, especially the meat and fish

@AprilGabrielle 4 роки тому

OMG I'm so glad to see Paul!! I haven't seen him since Strangers With Candy.

@SIMKINETICS 8 років тому

Dr. Tyson is likely the most famous scientist in America due to his intriguing & entertaining way of making science accessible to many! He has the persona of a plain-talking guy who knows what he's talking about. Behind all the fun is a serious & accomplished scientist, which I've known for years. Then, I realized I didn't know enough about him, so I looked Neil up on Wikipedia... Wow! Dr. Tyson isn't just a showboat! Any self-respecting scientist should envy Neil's career!

@sunnysoeder156 5 років тому

How GREAT!! I remember when Neil first started interviews and he was so very serious, now he has a great time. It makes me happy to see such happy people. :)

@Slick-666 8 років тому

This is the first time I've seen this segment, and I loved it. please keep it up Mr. Colbert, I lost my shit at the WWE music during the stats lol.

I can listen to Dr. Tyson for hours. Wish I had him as one of my professor. Genius guy, so passionate about his field. He explains very complicating concepts about the universe in simple ways when I watched some of his lectures. He deserve many noble prizes.

@Blondesax 8 років тому

This is a great segment. Bravo!

@DistortedV12 8 років тому

12:36 Neil's silently thinking to himself, "who am I turning into? I'm a scientist, not a personality..."

@MusicMike512 5 років тому

This is totally random but I was wondering why the sound at 3:53 was so satisfying when Tyson walked out. And then I figured out why... when Colbert said "Ty-sonnnnnn", that "sonnnnn" was spoken in the note of "D", and the music began on a B minor chord. D is one of the chord tones of B minor. And the blend just made it so much more epic.
