The first segment was focused on SCIENCE! The part with Aasaf Mandvi was simultaneously hysterical and very, very, very sad.
The last segment had guest Lisa Randall -- Harvard physicist and author of the new book Knocking on Heaven's Door: How Physics and Scientific Thinking Illuminate the Universe and the Modern World
as well as the old book Warped Passages: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe's Hidden Dimensions -- talking about science also. While I understand Lisa has many tremendous accomplishments, appearing on the Daily Show is the one I am jealous of.
She's also the sister of Dana Randall.
ReplyDeleteI saw Dr. Randall on Jon Stewart's Daily Show. She was excellent articulated her point of view so well. I could have listened much more.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I read my other three books on my kindle I will download "Knocking on Heaven's Door." It seems like a very interesting read. Long live scientists who uncover the truths of our universe!!
Thanks for the pointer! Very funny, in a slightly scary way. Appropriate for Halloween! I've already shown it to several friends.
