The Other Side of Midnight - Richard C. Hoagland - Live Chat Thread

[Yorkshire pud]

Hoagland is in no way affecting coast to coast. The drop off in numbers after arts show is worrisome for the dmdn. Hoagland is  here because dmdn has nothting to switch it with. This isnt talk. Believe me. There are numbers.

19.5 sort of numbers?

To tide y'all over for another 75 minutes, I wrote these down, my observations on the Brandenburg-Hoagland discussion:

- Brandenburg is a misogynist.  I've heard this in some of this other (non-Coast) interviews, but it came out in the comments about Michelle Nichols and just before the top of the hour talking about harem girls.

- Brandenburg can hold his own in terms of just continuing to talk and not letting someone else get in.

- Doesn't matter who it is or what the topic is, Richard feels the need to "clarify" for his audience what the guest is saying. Even to the extent of making sure we all know that the dress uniform of some military officer is blue.

- Brandenburg has changed his story in the last few years, but not his slides (from March 2015): He used to say that Lyot crater was where the nuke went off, now he's saying it's an airburst.

- Brandenburg's age of 500 Mya for this event completely contradicts everything that Richard Hoagland and Mike Bara claim about Mars being a moon of Planet V that blew up 64 Mya and created all of Mars' craters.  The only way to fix this was: Magic.

If he hadn't gone down the pseudoscience road, he could have been a big name in popularizing science to the general public.

Yeah, like that guy who invented the EM drive sixteen years ago. Popularity works so fucking well when electing our leaders, so let's just use "popularity" as a metric for science, too!

After tonight I give up. Look forward to a show..

[AppealPlay]

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAPS!!!  I hope this show is better than last night's bullshit.  I only made it ~40 minutes last night.

I had to miss Art again tonight.  I hope it was a good show as I'll be listening to the archive on a long drive today.

[Northcoaster]

He's having an artist on tonight. He really seems to be going for a variety of guests.

This could be good, I guess.  I'm not sure how he'll manage to tie his 19.5 nonsense into it but RCH is a master of the art of bullshit.

[ShayP]

I'm going to have to stock up on Miller High Life in honor of Hoagie.

I think if I get drunk, I'll understand his torsion physics model a little better.

[ShayP]

FYI...If you didn't know, a large pyramid structure was discovered on Ceres.  I don't have a link, but saw it on a science site earlier today. Sooooo.......

[Dixon Bawls]

Here it is.

I skipped last nite since I have zero interest in yet more politics, so I hope Hoagie doesn't dwell on it long tonite.

[ShayP]

Yeah...I'm trying to find the info.  I think it was Scientific American.
