Thanks for the interview!
@ProfessorDaveExplains This was some time ago. You are over 3M subs now. Thank you for what you do, the debunk stuff, but most especially your tutorials.
@@rickkwitkoski1976 Agreed.
MISTER FARINA
MR FARINA!
CLUELESS! 😂
Watching Dave eviscerate liars, grifters, & drooling theocratic authoritarian fascists in live debates & take-down vids is a joy. I especially like the fact Dave doesn't pull punches and coddle these scammers with underserving social niceties & fake respect. These people don't have a right to cloak themselves in BS pseudo-science and flat-out lies WITHOUT fear of being publicly and professionally humiliated. Intentionally lying to the public should have consequences. Thx Dave.
This ^………watching people coddle clowns like Terrence Howard like he’s a child being encouraged to keep being wrong because he’s a genius of untapped potential drives me nuts. Call the clowns out treat them like the lying buffoons they have chosen to be stop pretending they deserve to at the big table with the adults.
Great comment. Couldn’t agree more. I like that he gets angry, sometimes belligerent: he knows the danger to people’s health and welfare. I’m saddened that our current age does not punish people when they lose all credibility. They should be ignored or exposed and humiliated. But there is no shame anymore. In one sense, Trump allowed this more than anyone else. He bragged about assaulting a woman and still got elected. Shameful. An indictment of our democracy and/or educational systems? Sorry to ramble.
Sounds authoritarian to me.
@@Atlas_dhj That's because you don't know the ACTUAL definition of words. Also... tell me U are a theocratic, far-right zealot w/o telling me U are a theocratic, far-right zealot... or at least a fashi adjacent sympathizer.
@@EricS-uf9mv
You're saying those who have a different opinion to you should be publicly humiliated and fought against. That sounds pretty authoritarian.
Dave: "Flat earth is the dumbest.."
I don't know man, I had an hour-long discussion with a guy who thought airplanes were flying demons.
@Anacronian recently?
And there are people who believe tRump doesn't lie. So much stupid in the world.
Reminds me of a coolhardlogic video...which must be ten years old by now.
For an entire hour? Jeeez, kudos to you, dude.
Sometimes it can be really difficul.t to determine where cults and conspiracies leave off, and mental illness begins
“To argue with (someone) who has renounced the use and authority of reason...is like administering medicine to the dead...”
― Thomas Paine, _The American Crisis_
In Vietnam, we have a saying "killing a chicken to scare a monkey". You're not necessarily trying to win over the unreasonable ones, you make an example out of them to (maybe) win over other honest people.
Thomas Paine was a bad ass.
I love that Professor Dave is collaborating so much with atheist CZcamsrs. The more skillful science communicators who do so, the better.
He seems like just another Cultist to me, objectively.
@@PrivateSiWhat does that even mean?
@@dross4207 .. Scientism Preacher who shows all the signs of a cult member and mid-tier leader. His bias is beyond belief and reason. I'm an Atheist but most godless cults/religions/ideologies are just as bas as theist ones. Scientism is the most dangerous to the human race though.
@@PrivateSihow?
@@PrivateSido you just say stuff without thinking?
Professor Dave has really helped me in my deconstruction process! As a former evangelical Christian Pastor who actually believed all the stuff creationists teach… oh boy, did I have a lot to learn! 🤦🏼♂️
Apologists are as dishonest as a tobacco salesman who would say: "Tobacco is good for you, therefore Marlboro"
Right, I’m noticing a striking similarity between the current GOP strategy and young earth creationists/bible literalists…deny deny deny, then deny and lie some more. Even if you’re caught on camera, just keep lying about it. It’s so sleazy and dishonest.
I believed when I was12. It was 1960 we thought it made us look both tough and cool.
@@sarahchristine2345 yeah well they are all tied in together most flat Earthers for example are creationists, as are magas and the rest of the ratbags
@@sarahchristine2345 It's because they are essentially the same people. The GOP has been overrun with Christian Nationalists so... yeah.
They had SCIENCE to back it up at the time... Just like now we can see tobacco is great in an ageing population. You Lefties would be broke without the Tobacco tax on the poor. Health Freaks and sports / body junkies cost us 10x more before Covax increased it to more like 100x more. Smokers also dealt with Covid much better and were less inclined to take the clot shot.
A Seth-Dave crossover. Ya knows I clicked.
Hell yeah!!

Dave has a TON of educational material on his channel covering a wide variety of topics. To go the extra mile and refute all the BS online is nothing short of heroic.
Dave is the Isaac Asimov of You Tube!
I am a math and science teacher and I assign my students Professor Dave videos.
@@robertbetz8461was asimov extremely rude and obnoxious?
@@CliffSedge-nu5fv a bad teacher so!
@@rocoe9019 In all his science videos, no. But when taking on charlatans and liars, they deserve scorn and derision. If you think that is rude and obnoxious, that is, as Dave says, "That is not my problem."
As an Australian I feel compelled to remind you, when you talk about science denialism, that this is almost exclusively an American phenomenon. With the exception of fringe minorities, most advanced western countries just don't have this problem.
Is that how we ended up with Ken Ham? He couldn't take root in Australia with his grift?
So Ken Ham is American?
@@NinjaMonkeyPrime Nope, originally Australian, part of the "fringe minorities" I referred to. The rest of Australia treat them as the poor deluded souls they are and many of them migrate to the US where they seem to find more fertile ground for their mutant seed.
But “they” are trying to promote that type of approach here in Canada… 😢
I’m Australian too and it depends on the science being denied. We have our own Covid deniers, Covid vaccine deniers, vaccine cause Autism people and lots and lots who currently use all kinds of “alternative” medicine. Lots of believers in ghosts, souls, karma, a benevolent Universe etc too.
The denial of science drives me nuts, but the added denial of history, the re-writing of history by the right-wing ideologues, that makes me insanely angry.
What's even Scarier is they ARE Still Rewriting History Today.

My wife and I enjoy how Dave just shits all over the stupidity, especially the flat earth people.
For real. Their case is so compelling we need a real professor to explain how the earth is actually round.
He shouldn't waste his time with flat earth people. I mean, what if I say the earth is triangle 🔺️ and start a channel telling people that the earth is triangle 🔺️ shaped. Dave shouldn't waste his time debating my idiotic idea.
What an incredible person, putting so much time and effort into educating people. Really shows that Prof Dave cares.
😂
Love what Dave does the world needs more of him! Can we just clone him?
No thanks! He's rude and obnoxious !

💯 👍
When you say how old things are, they get all skeptical and say they don't believe you really know. Just denialism.
Free speech
@@Atlas_dhjalso free speech to call them idiot
@Eye_Of_The_Pyramid free speech does not absolve one from the consequences of saying something dumb.
I'll argue all day for people to be allowed free speech, I'll also argue all week for people to be exposed as frauds, ridiculed for pushing their ideologies with lies, have their recenue streams cut off so they cannot profit from disinformation (and yes that includes de-platforming people) and ultimately fined or jailed for causing or inciting harm.
Free speech is a right and responsibility, it is not a shield you get to pull out to avoid accountability for airing harmful lies.
Man I used to be guilty. Learning you were taught a lie from your parents is hard. Existential crisis 😂.
@@Atlas_dhj how does this violate free speech?
What a great interview! I’m a huge fan of Dave, and his channel. Was excited to see when he crossed paths with Erica from Gutsick Gibbon and Aron Ra- and thrilled when he joined The Line’s shows. He is fighting the good fight from the ground up. We need to platform and support people like him as much as possible.
I use james tour screaming "MISTER FARINA" as my text notification sound
I love the way Dave says straight out that they’re liars….. and yet, despite all their resources, they don’t sue him for defamation. I wonder why? 🤔Perhaps because they know truth is an absolute defence. 😉😁
Yup that’s the goal eliminating any barriers to stupidity and codifying religious intolerance and ignorance.
I’ve been on a Professor Dave rabbit hole recently, it’s been awesome. 👍🏼
Dave is a modern day hero. Debunking all the nonsense that poisons the world through the internet.
“Dave” (if that’s even his real name) is an alcoholic, & a misogynist.
Abiogenesis fails.. never been shown in the lab even with templates
Thank you, Seth, for bringing this channel to my attention! I needed it badly!
You deserve the honorific of TEACHER...
I wish I'd had you as mine back in the 80s, when I was in high school‼️
Keep up the good work.
Excellent conversation, thank you so much :-)
Love Dave’s work, his scope of knowledge is inspiring.
Dave deserves a medal for taking on the esteemed James Tour and not stroking out shortly after or during the encounter. ❤
"esteemed"😂
@@jamierichardson7683Dave Farina is not esteemed.
@@sentientflower7891 Oh he is, a lot more than james 'chalckboard' tour. Even among tour's students.
@@Julian0101 you are gullible. Dr. James Tour's students are professionals. Dave Farina's students are getting ready for a test for their chemistry class in the 9th grade.
@@sentientflower7891 Yep, they are professionals who have more esteem in farina than in james "chalkboard" tour. Which is why tour couldn't say anything when those students acknowledged loudly this fact when dave mentioned in the debate
I love how you have to deny reality just to defend your idoI's fantasy.
Two of the best spokesmen in one show! Awesome!
Dave is a super hero.
I love Dave's thorough takedowns of the DI. This type of pushback on fake science and religious zeal is important. We cannot let another Dark Age happen because poor explanations of the universe take over again.
James Tour is a mess. So angry and aggressive. He doesn't act like someone confident of his schtick.
"Phospholipids! clueless!"
( Dave shows abstracts from 6 papers on phospholipids)
" On the chalkboard Mr. Farina!"
I don’t mean this literally of course, but Tour has the most punchable face on the planet.. and when he talks, it’s x10…
Or, Tour acts exactly like you would expect, for a guy who knows that he's pushing a schtick.
He's lost a great deal professionally because of his anti-science screeds. He is very angry that no one lets him get away with his nonsense.
Dave is just hand waiving the fact that they can't make life with any chemicals and here they are researching making it with limitations on top of it.
Dave is one of the absolute best of all the popular educators who are atheist on CZcams, along with Forrest Valkai of course and there's so much good content Dave puts out.
The love of science stems from embracing questions we cannot answer, NOT answers we cannot question.
James Tour is like the Donald Trump of PhD Chemists. Loud, rambling and thin-skinned.
No. Dr. James Tour is a professional educator unlike Dave Farina.

I love Dave! I'm a neuroscience student and ive used a lot of his videos to help study. I really appreciate how many topics he covers. He's also one of my favorite hosts on the line...and ngl, he's fine lol. I'm actually going to take a break from chem to watch this.
Never heard of Professor Dave, but, wow, what a great interview. One thing I would add is that I think many people cling to creationism because they have never encountered the concept of emergent properties. Emergent properties is the idea that behaviors emerge from complex systems that cannot be predicted from the properties of the components of the system. These emergent properties come from not only the properties of the components but also from the ways that those components are interconnected. It was the idea of emergent properties that was the last nail in God's coffin for me.
@pithicus52 Go watch his MANY tutorials! 1000's of them. And BEFORE you watch any of his debunking vids. I began watching his stuff when he had about 100K subs. He has over 3 M subs now.
His debunking vids can be very caustic, He pulls no punches when addressing egregious grifters and morons. You don't "believe" some currently accepted science? Dave will tell you why that is STUPID! And... he did teach at a junior college level. He has a Masters and not PhD degree, but Professor none the less
My therapist stopped mentioning the Woodcock Johnson test because I kept smirking every time she said it.
Gentlemen, you are both terrific and much appreciated.
great, I really like them both and having them interact was awesome. thanks Seth for inviting and Dave for accepting.
I love how Dave goes after the flat earthers and science misinformation, head first and not being afraid to call them out. It make these people spreading misinformation uncomfortable which is a very good thing
My favorite thing professor Dave said to James tour was "what is your obsession with chalk" 😂
Fantastic interview, just subbed.
Seth and Dave in the same video. Fantastic! 💕
Seth and Dr Dave, two great communicators on one podcast. Just awesome.
Yes, fabulous.
He doesn’t have a doctorate, so he isn’t Dr. Dave. But yes, they are great.
Great guest! I love listening to both of your channels!
🙂 Thanks, and love you both!
Proff Dave is my favourite debunker by far. Most are way too polite to the totally dishonest flerths and creationists. Dave realises how damaging these ppl are. They all need to be laughed at, then told where to go.
45 minutes of Seth & Dave is too short!
Love this insight. Good interview, good answers. Both of you please keep doing your stuff.

Strange, I just checked and realized I'm not subscribed again. I never 'unsubscribe' from this channel, but it's the 3rd time I'm subscribing 🤔
It’s a weird glitch that has been literally happening for like 10 years. They’ve never never fixed it. You’ll just randomly be unsubscribed from channels

@@svjetlanaradovic9053ok so since you said that I just checked and found more channels that I was randomly unsubbed from. Wtf’s going on?
The Discovery Institute is not an institute, and they have never discovered anything. I heard that 70% of their payroll goes to lawyers, but I can't confirm that.

@@ritchie6162 that's actually not the case. The goalpost remains the same: Abiogenesis must produce a functional living cell that lives long enough to reproduce successfully. Abiogenesis research has only moved the ball several inches forward and the goal is not reachable.

good interview. still love your flerf debunks
I think you meant to use the term or question, _"How did life come from non-life?"_ -- The answer to that is that the question is nonsensical. In reality, the question is "How did chemical reactions happen to develop what we classify as "life"? "Life" is nothing more than bio-chemistry and chemistry has been around since the beginning of time.
The real question is how were physics and chemistry so carefully tuned as to make life possible? The mathematical probability against life being possible is something like 10^10^123. A number so vast that it effectively destroys mathematics.
BTW I think a fairly precise definition of life can be made. It requires something that can achieve homeostasis plus self-replication plus self-evolution.
@@Lucien86 -- _"The real question is how were physics and chemistry so carefully tuned as to make life possible? "_ -- This assumes that they _were,_ in fact, "tuned". That's like a puddle asking how the indent that the water settled in was so "perfectly formed". It's just a stupid question.
_"The mathematical probability against life being possible is something like 10^10^123."_ -- I'm calling bullshit on this. From what ass did you pull that number?
_"A number so vast that it effectively destroys mathematics."_ -- Numbers don't "destroy" mathematics. If it did, you wouldn't be able to calculate the number, which you appear to think was actually possible. This is a self-defeating statement.
@@dienekes4364 Oh dear talk about shooting yourself in the foot. If you understood higher level mathematics or exponential numbers you would understand why that number destroys ordinary mathematics. Its source BTW is Roger Penrose a colleague of Steven Hawking, talking on the Anthropic Principle in the book 'The Emperors New Mind'.
As for a fine tuned physics I suggest you look up the Wikipedia article "Fine-tuned Universe". Like it says fine tuning is a 'mostly' accepted part of physics.

Concerning Flat-Earthers, I feel they must have extreme trust issues.
1. They need to be asked, do they think every person who ever loved or taught them, lied to them.
2. If so, what was the purpose?
3. And who or how was this organized?
Yea ..and they wouldn't have any pilots in the family if they did they wouldn't get invited to the BBQ ...
@@vls3771 Same for NASA workers, they're probably shunned. What do the 19K NASA employees actually do?
I think for the rare exceptions of actual sociopaths most actually have an excessive trust of their own group or perhaps more aptly 'tribe', as they see any ideological opposition as a matter of conflict for their own cultural survival.
They actually don't know what for, by whom and generally don't care about their opposition overall.
Seths cool laid back sarcasm and Witt..with daves synical to the point knowledge.. the perfect balance

Teach the scientific method more would be my recommendation.
It seems to me that what we are hard-wired for seeking agency in the unknown. This is a survival mechanism, e.g. what made that sound, what caused that bush to move, etc. The step that is hard too get into is that the agency is frequently chance/chaos or the really scary one, "no one knows". I like to include "yet" though there is always that it is possible to be unknowable.
One of my favourite authors tackles this:
“Tiger got to hunt, bird got to fly;
Man got to sit and wonder 'why, why, why?'
Tiger got to sleep, bird got to land;
Man got to tell himself he understand.”

Money itself could make a huge difference in education, plus giving more resources to it shows that knowledge and clear thinking are valued.
Yes, we should show we value education, but the know-nothings are the ones sitting in the back of the class in high school on their phones, never listening to their teachers. A small percentage of people are just uneducable. Critical thinking classes aren’t going to help them.
