Recently, a team of Chinese geologists announced that Earth's core has "stopped spinning." This led to a flood of headlines predicting doom and gloom galore. But is it as dangerous as the movie The Core suggests? Let's look at it.

My toddler is an ultrasound geologist. On the floor, screaming into the core.
-
Letting new people skip ahead + being upfront about the whole thing so we can stop being alarmed and just be curious = 10/10 respect
-
So the TLDR is: We don't know exactly what's occurring, we don't know why it's occurring, and we don't know what effects are going to result from whatever exactly is occurring.
-
1:59 this is the best point ever. I hate when creators do something then second guess it. We are here for the content not the back ground. Good for you Joe.
-
I love how human this channel is, i genuinely got excited when i saw a new background.
-
Something is different
-
Congrats man! I don't watch many YouTube Channels. Yours is the only one i HIGHLY look forward to man! Your content is awesome, and you're one of the few GREAT YouTube presenters man! Thanks for all the quality videos!
-
scoffs we can't do anything fun anymore.
Joe, your humor never goes unappreciated. Thank you for it. -
Don’t know why I’m so attached to that Kallax shelf, but as soon as I saw the new set, my eyes darted around looking for it like “WHERE IS IT?!”
Glad it’s still a part of the backdrop, I think it’s such a good way to host neat stuff behind to flavour stuff up. -
As somebody who's been watching since early 2019, I like the new background. It feels like a nice refresher for the channel, while still feeling familiar so it doesn't seem like some kind of forced modernization like with all the Wendy's restaurants.
-
Love the new set, you deserved the upgrade! Keep the wonderful content coming, you are a RockStar!
-
I really love what you did to that room. It still has a lot of character (well duh you're in the new room too) that shade of aqua blue or green is really pretty and the special lighting & natural wood finishes look great together.... All in all this O.G. gives you 2 thumbs up & here's to the next 7 years!! 🥂 Cheers
-
Oh cool The Core's plot is happening irl 😂
-
Watching "The Core" as research is some serious dedication. You have earned my Like, Sir!
-
The decor is great--an update was needed.
Oh... and this week's theme (about recent news regarding changes in the rotational velocity of the Earth's inner core) was terrific. Thanks. -
Seismologist and long time subscriber here. Yay, I love that you made a geophysics video!
-
Round one of Sketch Madness as started! Go here to check it out: thatjoescott.com/madness/

Hi Joe, How about a video on "lasers"? What's the current state of the technology, latest applications, power levels, weaponization, scientific applications, communication etc? I just thought that would be a cool topic since the laser has been famous for so long now and we don't really see much of it in our daily lives as once predicted. Love your channel and content. Definitely one of the best ever on Youtube. Thanks for all you and your team contribute.
-
I love the new backdrop!! It looks amazeballs.
MAKE A BIG DEAL!! Good for you!! I love your content and have used it a lot during the fall and spring. Even outside those, I just watch you for enjoyment! Thank you for all the knowledge and interesting info. Here's to hoping you get to all your goals and plans!
Edit, fall and spring means schooling seasons 😅 -
Been watching for a long time glad to see all the growth over the years!
