Always good content here at Phil's channel! You soo blow a way your Lex Freedman types for not entertaining pseudo science shills on your channel, and I can see how you get repeated interviews with some of the worlds top cats in science, because you ask good questions, and have a great understanding of it yourself! Not too many others can achieve that without being larger well funded institutions!

I love how Sir Roger Penrose kindly credits the work of others whenever discussing his work. It's incredible how humble he is, coupled with the brilliant intellect he so responsibly wields. I have a tremendous respect for him. There is much we can learn from how he leads and thinks while giving credit where it is due. Respect.

Penrose is definitely the most important person in physics and math, because his cycles of time is the most promising application of spinner math.

Always love your videos! Hope to keep seeing more Alex and Dan episodes as well, as those are my favorite! You guys are always so smart, careful, and eloquent. You guys really try to make things as clear as possible for those listening, and I really appreciate that! Keep up the amazing work!

Always a huge fan of Penrose since I was a teen, almost by chance reading<br>The Emporers New Mind, even though I couldn't I understand most of it. The parts I could understand seemed so profound to me. Now I know why, but why I was drawn to him then, I don't know. The mystery of consciousness. Oh, and I just love Penrose tiles. I want to make a big wall of them.
