Origin of Life: Brian Miller’s take on debate between James Tour and Dave Farina

Occasioned, of course, by YouTube science educator Dave Farina’s video series and synthetic organic chemist James Tour’s responding video series. Miller discusses the conflict with host Eric Anderson:

Tour has argued that no one — not even the most elite of origin-of-life scientists — has a clue how life could have arisen through blind natural forces on the early Earth. Farina created a YouTube response on his channel arguing that Tour is wrong and that origin-of-life researchers are well on their way to solving the mystery of life’s origin. Tour responded in his own YouTube video series. Now Miller and Anderson boil it all down and argue that Tour is right and Farina wrong on multiple levels.
