One can tell Larry is genuinely scarred of death, just the way he's inquiring about it, instead of looking at all his accomplishments in his life-time to be passed down to his kids. Neil is right, we're here for a relatively short amount of time, so we should use that opportunity to accomplish as much as possible for the betterment of humanity.
No, God is amazing. The universe is just revealing that fact. Dude can't even explain the most basic fundamental problem with our existence. Something cannot come from nothing. This truth traced back far enough reveals that there must be something that is eternal. An unmoved mover. Otherwise, the very laws of physics that Neil studies crash under the weight of their impossibility. After all, a law that governs nothing is no law at all. Yet, we are here. And we are here because of an amazing eternal God. Pretty simple, yet this "genius" is too prideful to state the obvious and therefore has to make a joke to divert attention off the fact that no worship of science will ever be able to solve or prove how something can come from nothing. Love his intellect and charm, and he's great at educating folks based off what he "knows", but when the simplest equation can't be solved I can't trust your deductive reasoning that follows.

The argument of Uncaused cause: 1. “Something” exists. 2. 2. This “something” either: A: Caused itself to exist. B: Was caused to exist by another. C: Has always existed 3. But nothing can cause itself to exist, so if it was caused to exist, then it was caused by another. 4. There cannot be an infinite series of causes because without a First Cause there would be no subsequent causes. 5. Therefore, there must be a First Cause which is Uncaused.

Sorry to disagree but Mr “Neil” is in “deNiel”... he is just a mercenary paid to say things based on who paid most. Aka climate change lobbies. He is a public figure (hence the interview), not a true scientist (who never get interview)
As an engineer, I can tell you that you must be in the top 5% in SAT scores and IQ to become a physicist. Only the top in my college were studying to be physicists. You can be highly motivated, but you must be born with a talent for math.
@@The22on As someone who couldn't tell the hands on a clock at the age of 18, and is now pursuing a math degree - you're an idiot. Math isn't an inherited trait, nor is it a talent. Math is a skill, just like reading and writing or learning a different language. No one's born speaking German.
I think it was Einstein said "If you can't explain something simply enough, you don't understand it enough". That's Mr. Tyson with just about any subject. He breaks it down so simply that even theoretical concepts make it seem like we should have known it all along.
I just love how Dr. NDT makes a concerted effort to answer each question as correctly and honestly as possible, whilst still ensuring he simplifies extremely complex concepts enough for everyone to understand and follow.
It makes me realise that no, I no longer have the slightest fear of death. I am only 21 years old but I am comfortable with mortality. The thought of returning to the eternal oblivion is a thought which is solely comforting in the face of a life which will never cease to be difficult.
Frank Reading hmm I never thought of it like that. But at the same time, it’s a scary thought to not have a conscious in that. To just be nothing but energy breaking into the world and space.
well if we came from that non-existence once and will not exist again then we can repeat it again somehow. i mean logicaly we can do it infinite times.
I love the way he explains the energy out bodies possess and transfer to the earth when we die. He put it in such a poetic and beautiful way. I say this as a Christian. Neil is a great gift to humanity.
Smooth and amazing interview. We all know that Neil is an educator and is brilliant, but on the other hand Larry is so good at listening and letting Neil speak with only minimal directions to keep the conversational flow to Neil.
What a fascinating interview with a brilliant scientist! I finally was able to leave the confusion of religion at age 70, and at age 81, the last 11 years of my life have been emotionally my very best.
@@shihyuchu6753he is still all those things even if wrong ….. Just like you would say your religious leader is a good leader even tho we all know he is wrong about religion….
My favourite part of this interview was when Neil explains how he wants to be buried, so his energy content assembled over his life time can be returned to flora & fauna for which he has consumed. He basically saying his body should be recycled. Makes me think deeper than any train of thought.
4:49 - "..I remember opening a calculus book for the first time..." OMG is he right on. From 8th grade to my junior year in high school I loved algebra and trig. Then I was told for my senior year that if I wanted to take physics and AP chemistry I would have to take calculus. I do believe that was the longest school year of my life trying to understand calculus. Nothing in college ever came close in difficulty as my senior year deciphering calculus.
In the words of Homer Simpson ....Nerd. jk. Math is kool i guess but sometimes people's motivation far exceeds there talent but better to have both. To be good with numbers is a talent cuz when u think about it everything is numbers. Everyone and everything . We live in the Matrix .
That's because I have NEVER heard calculus explained properly. I could do it, but would have to prepare a long time. I have a theory of how to teach. You should always start with a problem you're trying to solve. With calculus, I would start with an architect trying to make a building in a perfect circle. Eventually, you will realize you need to invent 'calculus' to get the circle exact.
Like everyone else below me, immediately thought of this video. I truly hope that his last moments of consciousness were pain free, when it comes to the thought of not being alive I shared his fear and continue to do so. RIP King. You will be missed
A doctor,heart surgeon that gives medical advice on ABC news died on an operating table. .This man said he used to think like all doctors that life and consciousness end at death. He died and was pronounced dead on the operating table but later came back to life. He said that he was out of his body and saw the doctors and nurses working on his body. He said he saw a light and and then saw his dead relatives. He had a woman guide that was leading him around in this dimension. He came back to life. When he got home, he was looking thru a family album and saw the guide. His parents told him that the guide was his dead sister. Regardless how smart science is, God IS REAL
If only more students could come to that epiphany as early as you did. So many young men in high school think they should be born being good at everything. If at first you don't succeed try, try again. What a success story you are! Thanks for sharing
He's above that sort of thing. In the early Seventies I sent a letter (remember those?) to Carl Sagan asking him to consider running for president. I got a response saying he wasn't interested but telling me who he supported. Men like deGrasse Tyson and Sagan shouldn't be wasted on politics.
One of the most amazing interviews I have ever seen and enjoyed.. but I admit to loving both of them, I grew up with Larry King on CNN (90s) and Neil is just a blessing to humanity 😍
It couldn’t have escaped Larry that his own transition was near and it may well be why he slotted in a session with Tyson. But I have a nagging sense that the astrophysicist’s take on the whole thing, seeing that he - typical of the far majority of scientists - gives short shrift to consciousness, has proffered an incomplete view.
Elon was borned and raised in Africa so that is sadly only available in our imagination. Due to the US constituiton I believe Though I do believe that your country - if that's your country - is capable of both the worst possible outcome ( now ) and the best. You seem in love with the worst when it comes to politics so you wanna fix that toxic relationship first. Anyway. I wish you to get something similar to what you mentionned, in the near futur. It's rare enough for me to be optimistic in that department so I'm throwing that here. It's just a few years away from now so make it happen.
Larry King is 84 years old. I honestly hope that I’m not still in fear of death at that age, and that I am completely comfortable, and possibly even ready for the inevitable at that stage of my journey in earth.
CerberaOdollam no cherish the time you have Yea sure life is dark and a messed up place, but such as life, yin and yang, black and white, why fear the black? Just enjoy the white brother ✌🏼

if only this country honestly valued education, could you imagine if people like this taught science in public schools ? but they wont pay people this bright the salary the deserve so they pursue other careers, law, medicine, MBA’s, etc , thank you Mr. deGrasse for all your contributions
I love both of these men. Larry was the master of interviewing people. He could reach others on so many levels. Every time I hear Dr. Tyson speak I learn something. His brilliance is matched only by his passion to learn and to teach others what he's learned. Both of them were and are magnificent.
3:30 YESSSSS!!!! This is what a lot of people today don’t think about. It’s not that people are born smart, it’s that they worked hard to gain the knowledge they have.
Did u still think that way? Some people are more talented than others, it's not just hard work and dedication, some people shine and some people don't, its the way it is. Don't get me wrong u can be extremely good with dedication and work ethic, but it just isn't as good has being naturally talented.
@@adelinogoncalves1180 I think that they are just two separate factors that can play into success. You can have one of the other and still do great things for humanity.
@@SlamJamMusic shure, for example, lionel messi as those 2 factors, he is naturally talented and also has lot's of dedication and work ethic, that is why he is beast.
i love Tyson, but i Really love how good of an interviewer Larry King is, he let's us really get into the minds of his guests, knows what to ask, when to keep quiet & fantastic follow ups to really pick the brains of the people he's interviewing. Who better than Neil!
When you die, you die, you don't need any answers. Of anything, because you're die, and therefore it's not important at all, because you're not even conscious
My favorite quote is very similar to what Neil quoted; it's “No individual has any right to come into the world and go out of it without leaving behind him distinct and legitimate reasons for having passed through it.” - George Washington Carver. I get what Neil mean on his life perspectives and share them.
Such a beautiful interview. So much chemistry between Larry and Neil 😜 Larry: Why do we book guests like this? 🤣 Neil deGrasse Tyson...a living legend. I am sure hundreds if not thousands of scientists, engineers and mathematicians in the future will answer "Neil deGrasse Tyson" to the question "What inspired you to become a scientist, engineer or mathematician?"
"JUST IN CASE i cant tell anyone after i die" .... after he just stressed how impossible any consciousness is after death.. he's a story teller with opinions. Noone. NOONE really knows until the time comes.
Scientists did brain scans on dead people after 24hr and found brain waves still active in the brains like they were still alive. Alot of question for sure but I truly believe when we die its extremely euphoric and relaxing because all of the chemicals in your brain get released, that's a rush in a half if you think of it and if it's like that, that's ok. I dont wanna die but if life set it up where death literally feels good, then death is ok.
@@electricfuneral8456 what happens when we die with trauma to the brain whete does waves cant happen? Lets say a bullet in the head or death by explosion.
Obama had gas under $2 a gallon. A compact car factory here in Ohio is withering away because nobody is buying small cars. The only way is to shift market incentives by increasing gas prices.
I just want to hang out with this guy, drink a few beers and just talk about whatever. He just seems like a good person that’s smart and great to talk with.
This interview & Larry's trepidations on death came to mind IMMEDIATELY after I heard he died earlier today. I've also seen other media through the years in which Larry shared his unease about death; it always appeared to me to be a topic that was top of mind for him (all the more as he got older, I assume). His feelings on it mostly mirrored my own since I don't believe in an afterlife either. And man, here we are & he's in eternity now. Definitely a reminder that we've got to live our lives to the fullest 💯. Rest easy, Larry. At some point, sooner or (MUCH, MUCH 🤞🏾😁) later, all our days will come & we'll be in forever with you. RIP. 🥀
3:40 - "Ambition can override whether or not your first foray was unpleasant or unwell...but if you really like it, you'll spend time learning it". 6:00 - "Anytime I saw something I didn't understand...work at it". - Some pretty good advice right there!
This hits a bit harder after Larry’s passing. I hope the fear of not existing was not on his mind when he passed. RIP Larry King
ปีที่แล้ว +1
Tyson is so right here. You have to be interested in things so much, so that your curiosity overcomes the fear of not having a natural talent. So many bright minds are bright minds not because they are talented at something, but because they just want to understand something.
N.D. Tyson is an important voice of intelligence in our current world of ignorance and arrogance...its always rewarding to listen to N.D. Tyson speak about things celestial and interplanetary.
Even though you're gone in the physical world, Larry, you still will live on forever through all the things you've done. You will live forever Mr. King.
You have so many followers Neil because you have a good way of explaining things that have serious depths in a way that is understandable to us idiots while hitting just enough depth to make it interesting and still understandable. Like Brian Cox does too.
Whether he's right or wrong about what happens when one dies, his views on how to live life are really good: express your love and chase your goals like you only have this one chance.
Most definitely the best interview I've watched in a while.. I have been watching Larry every now and then since I was little .. I'm sure he use to smoke on screen hahaha, always been drawn to his personality. This is by far the most educational interview on so many levels. Watching this for the first time.. after Elons space trip. Hahaha... classic. Fear "A state of non existence" .. brings the urgency of feeling now and love now... interesting conversation about weather ..4 years later. I just loved watching this.

Sorry to disagree but Mr “Neil” is in “deNiel”... he is just a mercenary paid to say things based on who paid most. Aka climate change lobbies. He is a public figure (hence the interview), not a true scientist (who never get interview)
Herly Sarmiento If you say so.
Continues to amaze me every time I hear Neil’s talks. Such a humble human being and authentic in what he says. Great interview by Larry as well
If Neil DeGrasse Tyson was my science teacher when I was in school, I would have been some sort of Scientist...probably an astrophysicist.
yeah, he's so inspiring person
I would've been on Saturn's rings by now
As an engineer, I can tell you that you must be in the top 5% in SAT scores and IQ to become a physicist. Only the top in my college were studying to be physicists. You can be highly motivated, but you must be born with a talent for math.

@@The22on As someone who couldn't tell the hands on a clock at the age of 18, and is now pursuing a math degree - you're an idiot. Math isn't an inherited trait, nor is it a talent. Math is a skill, just like reading and writing or learning a different language. No one's born speaking German.
This has to be the all time conversation.. I could watch these two talk for hours...

@@danielgonzalez-yp7hi its Joe that kept digging deeper
I think it was Einstein said "If you can't explain something simply enough, you don't understand it enough". That's Mr. Tyson with just about any subject. He breaks it down so simply that even theoretical concepts make it seem like we should have known it all along.
That’s why he liked, he’s a great presenter and he explains things that we all can understand
Einstein = Seintein = Satan
I just love how Dr. NDT makes a concerted effort to answer each question as correctly and honestly as possible, whilst still ensuring he simplifies extremely complex concepts enough for everyone to understand and follow.
It makes me realise that no, I no longer have the slightest fear of death. I am only 21 years old but I am comfortable with mortality. The thought of returning to the eternal oblivion is a thought which is solely comforting in the face of a life which will never cease to be difficult.
Frank Reading hmm I never thought of it like that. But at the same time, it’s a scary thought to not have a conscious in that. To just be nothing but energy breaking into the world and space.
This thread gives both anxiety and mental rest.
well if we came from that non-existence once and will not exist again then we can repeat it again somehow. i mean logicaly we can do it infinite times.
I think of this almost every day. Were just waiting to return to nothing
I think it’s the reality of losing sense(s) that’s scary.
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed. This is what comforts me when I think about death.
It brings me so much peace and comfort
Sameee
It could also mean our bodies become manures

Smooth and amazing interview. We all know that Neil is an educator and is brilliant, but on the other hand Larry is so good at listening and letting Neil speak with only minimal directions to keep the conversational flow to Neil.
What a fascinating interview with a brilliant scientist! I finally was able to leave the confusion of religion at age 70, and at age 81, the last 11 years of my life have been emotionally my very best.
Well, i hope that 11 years didn't pass too quick

My favourite part of this interview was when Neil explains how he wants to be buried, so his energy content assembled over his life time can be returned to flora & fauna for which he has consumed. He basically saying his body should be recycled. Makes me think deeper than any train of thought.
buried or burned, the energy jst changes form :)
Oh Neil I truly fear for you the torment of a tremendous Day
When you meet your Lord.
4:49 - "..I remember opening a calculus book for the first time..." OMG is he right on. From 8th grade to my junior year in high school I loved algebra and trig. Then I was told for my senior year that if I wanted to take physics and AP chemistry I would have to take calculus. I do believe that was the longest school year of my life trying to understand calculus. Nothing in college ever came close in difficulty as my senior year deciphering calculus.
In the words of Homer Simpson ....Nerd. jk. Math is kool i guess but sometimes people's motivation far exceeds there talent but better to have both. To be good with numbers is a talent cuz when u think about it everything is numbers. Everyone and everything . We live in the Matrix .
That's because I have NEVER heard calculus explained properly. I could do it, but would have to prepare a long time.
I have a theory of how to teach. You should always start with a problem you're trying to solve. With calculus, I would start with an architect trying to make a building in a perfect circle. Eventually, you will realize you need to invent 'calculus' to get the circle exact.

Like everyone else below me, immediately thought of this video. I truly hope that his last moments of consciousness were pain free, when it comes to the thought of not being alive I shared his fear and continue to do so. RIP King. You will be missed
Yeah man, instantly, I immediately thought, he’s on his next journey
How long wllly his.newasmissin? f0r fyior me if he ever new that I was a thing that was aliveill his missingwbe misses what's WRONG? What's wrong
A doctor,heart surgeon that gives medical advice on ABC news died on an operating table. .This man said he used to think like all doctors that life and consciousness end at death. He died and was pronounced dead on the operating table but later came back to life. He said that he was out of his body and saw the doctors and nurses working on his body. He said he saw a light and and then saw his dead relatives. He had a woman guide that was leading him around in this dimension. He came back to life. When he got home, he was looking thru a family album and saw the guide. His parents told him that the guide was his dead sister. Regardless how smart science is, God IS REAL

Larry sure had a fascinating life. He got to interview so many legends
Neil should run for president
Anthony Beger flat earthers would not vote
He's given his reasons why he won't run
It would be like watching Salvation but irl.
Neil should be humanity's representative, if that makes sense.
He's above that sort of thing. In the early Seventies I sent a letter (remember those?) to Carl Sagan asking him to consider running for president. I got a response saying he wasn't interested but telling me who he supported. Men like deGrasse Tyson and Sagan shouldn't be wasted on politics.
"No, the universe is amazing, i'm just revealing that fact" - astounding!
Dr. Tyson, you are down to earth and personable. There is an underserved population who like to hear honest, intelligent conversation.
*I could hear him talking about anything for* *hours without getting bored. A great man* *and a great teacher.* ❤️🔥
Man this hits different after Larry's death
it's so shocking
The one thing Larry was afraid of came true. RIP
:(
larry bhai
He dead
This was a great interview. He is truly one of the most inspiring people I have ever listened to.
One of the most amazing interviews I have ever seen and enjoyed.. but I admit to loving both of them, I grew up with Larry King on CNN (90s) and Neil is just a blessing to humanity 😍
Larry has begun his transition back into becoming a star.
@@aidenramirez3058 hm?
@@A6Legit he’s dead rip
In deed ... becoming a star
Rip
It couldn’t have escaped Larry that his own transition was near and it may well be why he slotted in a session with Tyson. But I have a nagging sense that the astrophysicist’s take on the whole thing, seeing that he - typical of the far majority of scientists - gives short shrift to consciousness, has proffered an incomplete view.
Just imagine Elon Musk as President and Neil as Vice President or viceversa.
Elon was borned and raised in Africa so that is sadly only available in our imagination. Due to the US constituiton I believe
Though I do believe that your country - if that's your country - is capable of both the worst possible outcome ( now ) and the best. You seem in love with the worst when it comes to politics so you wanna fix that toxic relationship first. Anyway. I wish you to get something similar to what you mentionned, in the near futur. It's rare enough for me to be optimistic in that department so I'm throwing that here.
It's just a few years away from now so make it happen.
World Citizen sorry I don't speak non-freedom

Larry King is 84 years old. I honestly hope that I’m not still in fear of death at that age, and that I am completely comfortable, and possibly even ready for the inevitable at that stage of my journey in earth.
Or do it before that

Love how Dr. Tyson presents complicated material in layman's terms with a sense of humor
A great interviewer, many interesting guests. Education was always a priority. RIP good sir.
"if we live forever, why even get out of bed in the morning? because then you always have tomorrow"
if only this country honestly valued education, could you imagine if people like this taught science in public schools ? but they wont pay people this bright the salary the deserve so they pursue other careers, law, medicine, MBA’s, etc , thank you Mr. deGrasse for all your contributions
I love both of these men. Larry was the master of interviewing people. He could reach others on so many levels. Every time I hear Dr. Tyson speak I learn something. His brilliance is matched only by his passion to learn and to teach others what he's learned. Both of them were and are magnificent.
Maybe Larry had 60,000 favorite guests. I doubt it but he had a way of bringing out the best in his guests.
Neil is yummy
did Neil Graduate college ?
3:30 YESSSSS!!!! This is what a lot of people today don’t think about. It’s not that people are born smart, it’s that they worked hard to gain the knowledge they have.
Did u still think that way? Some people are more talented than others, it's not just hard work and dedication, some people shine and some people don't, its the way it is.
Don't get me wrong u can be extremely good with dedication and work ethic, but it just isn't as good has being naturally talented.
@@adelinogoncalves1180 I think that they are just two separate factors that can play into success. You can have one of the other and still do great things for humanity.
@@SlamJamMusic shure, for example, lionel messi as those 2 factors, he is naturally talented and also has lot's of dedication and work ethic, that is why he is beast.
i love Tyson, but i Really love how good of an interviewer Larry King is, he let's us really get into the minds of his guests, knows what to ask, when to keep quiet & fantastic follow ups to really pick the brains of the people he's interviewing. Who better than Neil!
Aren't you supposed to be dead?
Larry clearly knew he was at the end of his journey and just wanted some new perspective.. rip Larry king king I hope you have found your answers…
Nah
When you die, you die, you don't need any answers. Of anything, because you're die, and therefore it's not important at all, because you're not even conscious
My favorite quote is very similar to what Neil quoted; it's “No individual has any right to come into the world and go out of it without leaving behind him distinct and legitimate reasons for having passed through it.” - George Washington Carver. I get what Neil mean on his life perspectives and share them.
For a man of his intelligence to say the universe chose him .. Share the knowledge. It’s priceless!!
Watching this gives me chills now.. you’ were a good man Larry! RIP
Such a beautiful interview. So much chemistry between Larry and Neil 😜
Larry: Why do we book guests like this? 🤣
Neil deGrasse Tyson...a living legend. I am sure hundreds if not thousands of scientists, engineers and mathematicians in the future will answer "Neil deGrasse Tyson" to the question "What inspired you to become a scientist, engineer or mathematician?"
He puts words in a unique way that no one has hard time grasping it.
Neil is one of my favorites persons in the world. Even though I dont ever met him. That´s how great he is.
"JUST IN CASE i cant tell anyone after i die" .... after he just stressed how impossible any consciousness is after death.. he's a story teller with opinions. Noone. NOONE really knows until the time comes.
Scientists did brain scans on dead people after 24hr and found brain waves still active in the brains like they were still alive. Alot of question for sure but I truly believe when we die its extremely euphoric and relaxing because all of the chemicals in your brain get released, that's a rush in a half if you think of it and if it's like that, that's ok. I dont wanna die but if life set it up where death literally feels good, then death is ok.
When your cult leader says all these..then it's all fine..but when a scientist discuss this then you get pissed 😂😂😂
And won't know after, either. JS
@@electricfuneral8456 what happens when we die with trauma to the brain whete does waves cant happen? Lets say a bullet in the head or death by explosion.

This interview & Larry's trepidations on death came to mind IMMEDIATELY after I heard he died earlier today. I've also seen other media through the years in which Larry shared his unease about death; it always appeared to me to be a topic that was top of mind for him (all the more as he got older, I assume). His feelings on it mostly mirrored my own since I don't believe in an afterlife either. And man, here we are & he's in eternity now. Definitely a reminder that we've got to live our lives to the fullest 💯. Rest easy, Larry. At some point, sooner or (MUCH, MUCH 🤞🏾😁) later, all our days will come & we'll be in forever with you. RIP. 🥀
This guy is beyond the stars in his thoughts..very intelligent and I absolutely love this guy
3:40 - "Ambition can override whether or not your first foray was unpleasant or unwell...but if you really like it, you'll spend time learning it". 6:00 - "Anytime I saw something I didn't understand...work at it". - Some pretty good advice right there!
The way Dr Tyson described what death is and the processes was very eloquent.
Had to immediately think of this video after hearing the news. RIP!
This hits a bit harder after Larry’s passing. I hope the fear of not existing was not on his mind when he passed. RIP Larry King
Tyson is so right here. You have to be interested in things so much, so that your curiosity overcomes the fear of not having a natural talent. So many bright minds are bright minds not because they are talented at something, but because they just want to understand something.
Rest in Peace, King. An absolute legend.
Mr. Tyson, you are incredible...much respect!!! For an astrophysicist he is ironically so well grounded...wow!
It is so beautiful to listen to a human use his brain with objective truth
N.D. Tyson is an important voice of intelligence in our current world of ignorance and arrogance...its always rewarding to listen to N.D. Tyson speak about things celestial and interplanetary.

Good luck.
Neil's comments about slide rules and calculus brought back some real memories for me too!

His insights on life and death actually made me cry. What an amazing human being. We are privileged to be living in the same era as him.
I’d love to meet Neil Degrasse Tyson just to shake is hand and tell him how much I respect him.

Mr. Tyson, I love you.
I love listening to you all the time.
You are the most influential person in my life.
Neils a very good listener. "He's going to send his own planes up"...."Aaa rockets." He listens and he has to be accurate. Love it.
Except on joe rogans podcast 🤣🤣
Whether he's right or wrong about what happens when one dies, his views on how to live life are really good: express your love and chase your goals like you only have this one chance.
Most definitely the best interview I've watched in a while.. I have been watching Larry every now and then since I was little .. I'm sure he use to smoke on screen hahaha, always been drawn to his personality. This is by far the most educational interview on so many levels. Watching this for the first time.. after Elons space trip. Hahaha... classic. Fear "A state of non existence" .. brings the urgency of feeling now and love now... interesting conversation about weather ..4 years later. I just loved watching this.
