Neil deGrasse Tyson: "Brace Yourself --- KNOWLEDGE Is Coming"

Neil deGrasse Tyson Gets a Late-Night Nat Geo Talk Show

?1420730009

The astrophysicist and TV personality, who fronted Cosmos in 2014, has nabbed a late-night series on National Geographic Channel called Star Talk.

“Cosmos allowed us to share the awesome power of the universe with a global audience in ways that we never thought possible,” said Tyson. “To be able to continue to spread wonder and excitement through Star Talk, which is a true passion project for me, is beyond exciting. And National Geographic Channel is the perfect home as we continue to explore the universe.”

I have never seen Game of Thrones, so had no idea. (I haven't played a computer game since Pong.)

But if I was NGT, I would not consent to having myself depicted wearing animal fur.

I still love NGT, though, and will watch his new program.

Given that he's wearing it over, like, a plaid business shirt.
