Welcome to Star Talk.

You're a place in the universe where science and pop culture collide.

Star Talk begins right now.

Welcome to Star Talk.

I'm your host, Neil deGrasse Tyson.

You're a personal astrophysicist.

I'm also the director of New York City's Hayden Planetarium

at the American Museum of Natural History.

This week, we're bringing in a new year

and preparing to launch yet another season of Star Talk Radio.

But first, we'll say goodbye to 2016 and our seventh season.

Yes, seven season.

We'll do that with the first part of our annual Time Capsule Show.

Every year, we send out a survey to you, our fans,

and ask you to vote for all your favorite episodes,

your favorite guests, your favorite co-hosts.

Then, we cut in splice to create this single mashup episode of The Winning Picks.

2016 saw our third season on the National Geographic Channel,

and it would be Star Talk TV's second Emmy nomination.

And every episode is an opportunity to reveal and expose the geek underbelly

of the pop culture stars and influencers all around us.

And it's what we do here on Star Talk.
