A Yale friend of mine, Alexander Dominitz, made a hilarious music video. He played Martin Luther and covered Jay-Z’s “99 Problems.”
This video is an absolute gem—and 500 years in the making.

Watch “Drunk” Neil deGrasse Tyson Talk Science
Have you ever watched a drunk astrophysicist talk about Isaac Newton?
You can now. Michael Shenigo-Rudy showed me a hilarious video of Neil deGrasse Tyson, the famous astrophysicist and face of the new Cosmos.
Someone slowed down a normal video of Tyson. He’s not really drunk, but the slower speed makes it look, sound, and feel like he is. Prepare for joy.

I’m sure you’re shocked to hear this news, but Richard Dawkins receives hate mail. It might surprise you, however, to hear the vulgar things some Christians send to him.
Get your popcorn ready, because I found videos of Dawkins reading his hate mail. (WARNING, some of the language is R-rated!)
Thomas Kuhn, Action Hero
Thomas Kuhn was a physicist, philosopher of science, and historian. He authored The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, one of the “most influential books of the 20th century.” (If you haven’t read it, you should.)
His legacy was rather suspect, however, until someone asked an obvious question: “Can we turn The Structure of Scientific Revolutions into an action movie?”
