In between fixing their broken glasses with tape they were whispering to each other in an awed hush, "That guy was the science advisor to Walter Cronkite."

No need for Hoagland to don a Klingon forehead with that hair of his.

I can imagine the (alleged) audience of 5,000 people turning on their heel and leaving after hearing Leonard Nimoy talk.

(The part where they came back to hear Hoagland talk? Not so much.)

I think Hoagie's in Dick Cavett mode. He's the engaged, good-natured interviewer tonight.

His mood swings seem related to how much he cares about data.

It's not. This is a fairly common experience/hallucination, usually associated with DMT but sometimes not. Watch the Grant Morrison vid I linked earlier.

Either that or how much methamphetamine his dealer has sold him that day (you choose).

Maybe, he seems to give them a break on the whole data thing.

If Hoagie hadn't completely mangled the Pinchbeck interview the other nite, we might have heard about this.

It's so unpredictable. Some kind of Hoagie Uncertainty Principle.

It's probably just a thing where he's only good for about one Dick Cavett mode per fortnight, or so.

Maybe he's got his klingon forehead on now, keeping him calm.

Yep.
Heisenberg's got nothin' on Hoagie.

TigerLily · June 30, 2016, 01:15:22 AM

Hurry up but take it slowly.

akwilly · June 30, 2016, 01:17:26 AM

Only heard the last few minutes. This guest doesnt sound like a scientist to me

Zenman · June 30, 2016, 01:18:38 AM

OK, he's off Cavett Mode, lol.
