Bill Nye is as good of a science ambassador as you can get. We need more people like him in this world.
How Jaylen Brown feels about Bill Nye is how everyone his age feels about him. We LOVE Bill Nye.
This dude was my childhood , a big reason I was big into science and whatnot
I kinda owe Bill for the reason I’m in Medical school right now

Got to meet Bill Nye at an event while I was attending University of Arkansas like 10 years ago. He was awesome! Just a genuine super nerd that’s always excited to talk science no matter who the audience is
Makes me say maw.
Awesome stuff.

This crossover proves that greatness in one field still bows to greatness in another.
The friendship that sorta came outta nowhere
Dang, didn’t realize how much one Bill Nye clip could uplift my spirits. What a guy 🥲
They both have the same level of science background, probably.
Deflategate
Is there anyone who doesn’t love Bill?
They’ll never make me hate the Science Guy
How many points did Bill Nye put up before he gave this interview?
I love that video where Bill Nye gets into the elevator with all the bikini clad coeds.
Bill > Neil as a celebrity scientist and it’s not even close tbh. Having a beer with Bill feels like he’d actually talk *to* you.
Kidd was correct.
Wow.
I just love that slight detail of correcting himself on the “up here” to “came north”.
I remember when he was on Bill Maher’s show and to provoke a reaction, Bill Maher brought up Google search on his laptop and typed in “Is the Moon” in the search bar. The first autocomplete was “real?”
As the audience broke with laughter, Nye feigned slamming his head against the desk repeatedly.
I love Bill Nye.
Seemingly random, but very wholesome. Jaylen Brown is a legitimate nerd outside of basketball so it’s not a surprise he idolized Bill Nye as a kid.
I feel like the creator of the theme song deserves a lot of credit for his success lol.
I grew up with him but just watched for the intro.
Popular mechanics for kids was my science show.
Scientifically very gracious but emotionally that’s a different story
Fuck both of them
crossover episode i don’t know i wanted haha
He’s aged well!
JB should have FaceTimed Bill Nye instead of his teammates bet he would have answered.
