Nothing like Aron's iconic "Shut up dog" as the opening to a video
-
I heard a quote from Seth Andrews from an anonymous source, "Whenever an honest man discovers that he's mistaken, he will either cease to be mistaken or he will cease to be honest." Tour has never been honest.
-
I just realized that is not a window behind Aron. Lots of terrariums.
-
Honestly as a retired professor myself I have never seen an academic behave as childishly as Tour in that debate. Rice is supporting that insane psycho who thinks holding chalk and yelling “clueless” equals scientific inquiry. He’s also lying to undergrads, which is quite creepy. Bravo to Dave for staying sane during that mess!
-
I watched the debate and initially, I thought Dave was a little too on the nose with calling Tour a liar. But as the debate went on it was clear to me that the audience needed to understand that their man was incapable of telling the truth about the subject. Tour was a crybaby who just kept doubling down on his lies. Great debate, Dave.

You can't have a video with Aron Ra without an animal hijack
-
The funniest part was where Tour points out that Dave is reading. But that there should give us a clue as to why he's not up on the latest science: he wont read it. I wonder if he tells his students not to read.
-
Tour's motto seems to be... "if you can't be right be wrong at the top of your lungs"
-
Damn, Aron Ra and Professor Dave together, and it's not even my birthday. Wow, the Flying Spaghetti Monster must really love me.
-
Dave sounds so tired of this. We’re all immensely grateful for his patience in teaching everyone about evolution on every scale and debunking that which it’s both inane and deliberately dishonest. Much love to you all, stay safe and hydrated out there.
-
James kept lying after being corrected, the friendly conversation ended at that point.
-
Thanks for introducing me to Aron! His videos are amazing and inspiring
-
Dave, I've been enjoying your hilarious Twitter responses to the DI fools. When will your next debunk come out?
-
I loved when Dr. LeQuack said "This is my first debate." Yeah, it shows.
-
You needed to have a maniac screaming in front of a chalkboard, just for the proper ambiance.
-
I appreciate that Aron was at the debate. Arguably one of the better folks to have in your corner, in person.
-
As a person with a degree in Molecular Biology and Chemistry and also having spend an enormous amount of time in Mammalian Physiology and Cell Biology...it is a joy to see these kinds of things brought up in the debate.
-
Im pretty sure the reason of the chalk board was to have Dave draw some chemicals from memory and hope for a small mistake and draw the "He's just following a script"-card.
-
Love Mythvision!! Love Prof Dave! And AronRa
-
This is why live debates are generally not that good any more. If you have a dishonest actor, it takes times to do the research to demonstrate a lie. That's why I think debates where people have time to submit video responses back and forth are more productive than live debates.
