    What neuroscience fact has blown your mind from this show? Let us know in the comments!
  • @rubeeno8055
    the left side of the stage is like the back of the classroom
  • @ericsalles1424
    THIS!!!!!! Is what the internet was built for. Intelligent, funny, thought-provoking discussion.
  • @matthewa441
    I wish we could do this this again in 2023. I'd love to hear this group talking about chatgpt and AI
  • @Saikat_Musib
    How is Paul Rudd always in these science talks?? Man is a legend!
  • @krookt
    Paul Rudd most of the time: "what the hell am I doing here!?"
  • I like how humble Paul is. Hardly speaks so he doesn’t make the others feel inferior.
  • @BradGryphonn
    This is pure gold. My favourite geek celebrities on one stage.
  • I like how Mayim and Heather led this conversation, and while Eugene and Michael were consistently making little quips (which is their job, so I don't fault them), Paul mostly sat back and listened, chiming in only sometimes with about half comedy and half serious questions. Really a top-notch panel!
  • @peteryip947
    I’m not a social person and I can shut myself indoors for weeks without talking to ppl and feeling perfectly fine, but I would LOVE to spend 2 hrs of this kind of conversation (quality wise)on daily basis, a mixture of comedians and science professionals really are the ideal structure of my social circle.
  • Wow. I just discovered this gem. The best 2 hours of my life. Thank you Startalk, Dr. Tyson and all the panels ❤❤❤
  • @angpa83
    I love Mayim. I could listen to her all day. Heather is cool, too.
  • @antIm4tt3r
    I always thought StarTalk would be some subscription based show, but I forgot how good of a guy Neil is. Can't believe it, it's free to watch on YouTube.... whole episode. Thank you, sir.
  • @mikeomaliko4956
    I love how scientists can have a conversation about a topic that can be incredibly polarizing in other contexts, but still be civil about it.
  • This was an awesome conversation, & an important reminder that Mayim Bialik is also a renowned neuroscientist! Only Dr. Tyson can gather an all-star cast like this to talk science--well done! 👏
  • @blogical4320
    This was one of the best 2 hours of my life.....why can't we have more of this...rather than all the cringe stuff now a days.
  • @beth3510
    I love how intelligence and humor so often go hand in hand. What a great panel.
  • @jcreyes427
    This is literally what it feels like while having a group study for the finals
  • @KeyurRohit
    What an amazing idea to bring Science and Comedy together in order for the message to reach more minds without being boring. Impressive beyond imagination!! ❤️❤️❤️
