20150804 - Jay Weidner/Stanton Friedman Debate - Live Chat Thread

[Tapkaara]

That old Buddhist guy from Thailand calls a lot.

[CoherentBlast]

Ive never seen the Weidner guy. So far I got this

Bangkok Charley !

Outright lie caught. He said you can't find the Saturn V blueprints. That is not true. They're in Huntsville, AL.

[AppealPlay]

So far as I can tell he claims that NASA did in fact go to the moon however the footage that we were shown was a fakery produced by Stanley Kubrick.  Is that correct?

[ItsOver]

Malachi: de gustibus, etc., but this is empty prattle. 

It's an unflushed toilet bowl of deeply unfounded conspiracy crap.  At least the other guests so far have met a modicum of challenge.  This is the road to Dave.

I feel like Stanton's been ambushed.  Sorry state of affairs.

Oh, well.  You can't have a home run every night.

[Alienmojo]

Gonna route all my calls thru Thailand... then maybe I can get on too.

[Royal_Tenenbaum]

"I'M NOT MUCH OF A SPECULATOR." LOL

Road to Dave? Histrionics much? The problem isn't the debate, it's you.

Jay "I am not much of a speculator"

CRASH!

I just fell off my chair.

No kidding.

In the McDonalds there... rotting in a corner.

[QuantumMystics]

IF you want to inspire science why use this myth as your name for your science program? 






God of light music poetry, etc Can anyone say media elite? Film industry?

[alienated]

I'm not really much of a speculator.

I'm at the point I don't know and don't care.  If I met this clown in a bar, I would have walked away a long time ago.

That is what I could gather from it. He things they actually used some sort of EM technology to get up there. The rocket launches were just for public display. Because burning that much LOX for public display is just cool.

When Jay isn't debating the fake moon landing he is the lead fry cook at the McDonalds in Huntsville, Al.

Well a vote that this is the worst show so far. I'm so frustrated there is steam coming out my ears. Even little statements like "They did the moon landings without a single glitch" - each mission had dozens of logged glitches. The Apollo 11 landing DID have a close call - they had an overload of the computer called a 1201 Alarm and the crew ran within 30 seconds of running out of fuel due to avoiding large rocks at the landing site.  I am going to have a shot of vodka so I don't end up saying something I might really regret.

[DangerDog]

Good grief, with this "the astronauts didn't seem cheerful enough. . ." Oh really!?!? You're the arbiter of other people's emotional mandates now??? They're military combat pilots that just returned to earth safely and they were mentally and physically exhausted. Their nerves had just been tested to the limits. And they probably did not want to look stupid and undisciplined on television.

[Royal_Tenenbaum]

Is there not a single person that can call in and challenge Jay on his scams?

[PrairieGhost]

Charlie from Thailand loves talking about delays, bladder ejaculations and how smart Art is compared to his guests. New favorite caller? Art has nightmares about him?

[GravitySucks]

The cameras were NOT standard Hasselblad cameras...

Art is exasperated.  Haha!  He's regretting this Weidner character.

Yeah, I thought I detected stupid from that statement.

[Hector46]

Wow. Bunch of nonsense today

I know. I wouldn't be too cheery after a highly risky and stressful space flight and landing. The quarantine seems pretty bad too.
