      FYI: StarTalk (http://www.startalkradio.net ) features more than 50 scientists per year as in-studio experts, and we’ve spawned StarTalk-Allstars.

          And if you're getting 200+ requests/mo for appearances, why not point some of them towards the 50+ other scientists featured on your show?

          We *all* get too many speaking requests. Because there aren't enough Black scientists.

          Do you think that people invite him and he says no and then those invites don't go to anyone else? Have you ever organized an event?

          I'm not sure what you find so offensive. He said he wishes there were more popular scis to shoulder the burden of comm - I pointed some out.

          The hope would be that when he says no, he can say "no, but have our heard of @DNLee5" or "no, but in et @DrRubidium would be great"

          Did you even look up startalk and listen to the shows or are you just judging based on what NDT said in an interview?

          Well, if you did you'd know NDT is interviewing non scientists about their relationship with science, AND has shows with other scientists.
