John Michael Godier interviews Lue Elizondo on Event Horizon



Next week: Dr Sean Kirkpatrick!

I just started binge listening to Godier like a couple of weeks ago, sometimes for falling asleep as he has a soothing voice but I'll re-listen to him again the next day to see what I've missed and it's reignited my interest in space and alien stuff.

If anyone knows of any similar space or alien podcasts or videos that have a soothing voice, please send them my way. :pie_ssmiling:

A decent commentary video on how YouTubers are encouraged to be involved with drama, grandstanding and overly dramatic titles (hint: it's YouTubes fault)

No one shall be brought before our LORD David Bowie without the true and secret knowledge of the Photoshop. For in that time, so shall He appear.


Love his vids.

May actually get into this.

Soooo Fascinating.

I feel like I just watched a 36 minute adderall commercial 😂

That was awesome.

Is this guy for real? This is strangely compelling and simultaneously wildly over-analytical lmao

There's a whole lot of mind-reading going on and the claims are not falsifiable. But the narrator creates a strong narrative, and he's a great writer and presenter.

Edit: At 27:23: "William remains silent. A patient shark who knows that the diver's cage can only last for so long."

29:05: "The diver's cage has been opened. Now, as his eyes dart back and forth, clenching onto his face, Chad is alone...Staring down the barrel at the punishment for the actions he committed when he thought he was invincible. A debt for which he never thought he'd have to repay. The time for repentance has passed, and in a complete turn of events, Chad, in his panic, realizes that he is at the complete mercy of William's wrath." THAT is great writing lmao

I can't tell if this is ironic, sincere, or both. Whatever it is, it's so good.

Subscribed and watched a couple other videos. Ok, so I have come to conclusion that this guy is sincere, and this is just wild, deep analysis. Super interesting.

Yeah he's sincere but he sure has his way of dramatizing his vids, does a lot for it's entertainment aspect, which I guess (at least a real possibility) he does to gain viewers.

Most of these breakdowns are with celebs etc which are ofcourse more interesting if you want to reach more eyes. And that's fine, just like me explaining the same thing twice lol

This one in particular is funny because the role of a table....

5 guys 1 Table



God I despise this show

I watched that one yesterday. There was a whole social pecking order ritual on display with a missing chair as the catalyst. Human drama.

I skim-read that article. Seems to me they're codifying in a journal what most people understand instinctively but which I don't. That's why the videos were so interesting to me.

PS, they should give an honorary doctorate to the YouTube guy for his outstanding contributions to the science.
