[40muzik]

more ands, ifs or buts.

[sniped101]

@jrspolitical she probably needs some dick.

[Girls4RonPaul]

this frustrates me so, cause icd to tell this for years. as a dev pschologist and preschool teacher. no one would listen.

[petewalker274]

Like "I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now" in the Byrds song My Back Pages.

[loneanalyst]

"mmhm, yeah I think that's right" (40:46) - she was actually thinking "mmhm, riiight.. um, that's garbage".. otherwise not a bad interview.

[BelieveInReasonAlone]

Both Stuart Shanker & Alison Gopnik in 3 weeks! Awesome interviews!  You're ready for your own syndicated TV show now! Thanks, Stef.

[lewisu2088]

[Claytrainor]

This is a very educational interview.

Thanks Stef!

[oojamaflipper]

[joshv89]

Jesus I jumped out of my chair @ 5:00 its like she got possessed or something.....

[ronpaulspanish]

My God! You werent the only one my friend...

[DecassyJake]

Ive noticed that when Stef interviews obviously learned and people who have really got something to say, they appear to experience a quite delicious pleasure. I guess its because they are so surprised to meet such an engaged mind as theirs. I call it a Stefgasm!

[fergus247]

nice sweater stef

[DecassyJake]

Great stuff! Babies are cool..from now on to call someone a "big baby" should be the HIGHEST compliment! Yay! I made the top ten..in the comments section...! (Adults can be sooo dumb and easily pleezed!)

[undefinedego]

01:15 lolol.

[Signzit]

I have Pre-birth memories. I thought in complete thoughts the day I was born. 1st. I did want to go, I knew it would be bright, cold and loud. I wanted to stay in the whom. Do not underestimate a newborn child's mind, just because they do not have the body capable of the communication you require.

[DjEphixa]

wow O_O

[erdal0]

do you remember the insemination?

[Signzit]

Funny erdal0, it's an interesting job you have.

Looking at the, thumbs down; it's clear many of you people are quite closed minded. I'm sure this is a result of your parents/caregivers baby-talked you, in stead of using proper word phrases.

[sumadartsan]

"t's clear many of you people are quite closed minded. " By God, we don't accept fantastical words from some stranger as proof. You are right, we are close minded fools!

[lnd3005]

Baby-talk is bad for babies, eh? Any papers to back that up?

Maybe you wrote one, back when you were in the whom?

[redkeithh]

This unoffensive comment from Signzit deserved 12! thumbs down? Sheesh.

Anyway, this is a brilliant interview. The kind that makes stefbot one of the great YouTube channels.

@tob1203 Watch out, those who are often FIRST in a message board are LAST in real life!

[CelticAlphabet]

And those who are first to judge those who write "FIRST!" will be last in the in kingdom of heaven.

[Anon1696]

And those who criticize those who judge those who write "FIRST!" are Christian.

[DaveDoggOwns]

That's a real tongue twiser right there. Say that sentence three times fast.

[Anon1696]

It's not that hard.
