Neil Degrasse Tyson is brilliant. Watched that cosmos series it’s unbelievable. He grew up in shit part of the bronx and became what he became makes him even more impressive
Indeed - he’s co hosts on Star Talk are excellent too, mostly Chuck Nice, down to earth sorts and good craic. you should listen to these, there’s loads of them and an amount of learning to be had

Listening to this at the moment.
Oh yes.
Vincent Hogan on the wrong side of history again.
Started listening to this. Could listen to Paul Kimmage all day
Himself and the Dunph on the ball
