I've heard at least some of Dr. Berger's story before, but I've got to say this rendition really outshines the stuff I've already heard. What a career, a story, and what far reaching implications for understanding our origins and ourselves. Thank you again, World Science Festival, for such clear, detailed, and interesting content.
That's how you do an interview. Ask, shut up and listen and occasionally ask a brief question for clarification. You don't don't put your opinions out there or constantly interrupt the person when they're about to say something interesting or just start talking yourself about what you think. It's very rare to see an interview like this. Good job!
What a gift that man is; a scientist that is also an expert storyteller is what the world needs more of! He had me enthralled throughout, and I might go looking for more later.
I am mostly a physics geek, and have watched many previous episodes of WSF, but this is the best program yet. Absolutely a "must watch" show.
Greene is such a good interviewer. He draws great explanations from guests outside of his own field of expertise.
This has become my favorite story of adventure and scientific discovery even beyond the moon landing. What a privilege to have been a part of this. I would have given up a lot to be there, but I would never fit into those caves. I'm really grateful to all who did the job, of making it possible for all of us could see this take place.
One definition of human , is to be able and willing to discover new things , and then enthrall your audience with what you found.
Absolutely fascinating and captivating to this 67 year old former science/engineering student and geek. It's stuff like this that keeps my mind and inspiration young and vibrant, and recharges my spirituality ( not in the religious sense). (I think *PBS'* _NOVA_ , or some other PBS presentation aired a film about this expedition, if my memory serves me correctly, within the past 5-7 (?) years.) And kudos always to *_World Science Festival. _* It's great to see so many science sources carried on You Tube.
It is not that hard to believe Naledi could care for their dead....just look at how some mammals from elephants, whales, etc that grieve over a dead baby. They just didn't have appendages to perform burial rituals. Bravo!
His delivery kind of turned me off initially but as he told the story it made more sense the way he was telling it and by the end I was almost crying and clapping so allowed the dog left the room. What a story!
