Conversations With Joe

Isaac Arthur runs the YouTube channel Science and Futurism With Isaac Arthur, where he goes into incredibly deep dives on subjects like megastructures, future space colonies, aliens, and little things like farming black holes (like you do). Here we touch on a few of those topics and do a little shop talk about life as YouTubers.

In today's podcast, I sit down with Doug Vakoch, the founder of METI, or Messaging Extra Terrestrial Intelligence. We talk about why METI was founded, what their goals are, why we should try to contact aliens, and respond to some of the criticisms of the organization. If you're interested in learning more about what they do or want to get involved, you can check them out at www.meti.org.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this podcast, I'm thrilled to be talking to Sean Webb about his new book, Mind Hacking Happiness (Volumes 1 & 2). Sean is a counselor, author, media personality and something of an expert on emotions. In this episode we talk about how we break past our mental attachments, enlightenment experiences, a simple hack to keep your emotions from spiraling out of control, the newest science on consciousness, and how to gain control of your mind.

I spoke with Tim Dodd, who runs the YouTube channel Everyday Astronaut, specifically about the Falcon Heavy for my video on that subject, but we got into all kinds of topics from spaceflight to what inspired us as kids, to the danger of trolls and flat-earthers and the importance of tapping into the wonder that science brings us.

Mathematics is the backbone of all sciences, no theories or hypotheses are proven unless there is math to back it up. But there are many who believe that math isn't real. In today's video, we'll break down the arguments. From the Mathematical Physicalists to the Platonists to the Mathematical Fictionalists, we look at all the theories behind whether numbers actually exist, and what they mean.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, I got a chance to talk to Ben Sullins from the YouTube Channel Teslanomics, and we talked about all things Tesla, but especially this week's Model 3 event, which Ben is attending and he has some pretty amazing predictions about what might be revealed at the event (hint: a battery breakthrough).

Cooper Carr is a buddy of mine who hosts the Cine Pile podcast, where they have "down to Earth discussions about films that matter". But he's also something of an expert - at least more than I am - on cryptocurrencies and blockchain. So he and I sat down and had a discussion about what's going on with cryptocurrencies, where it's going, and why it matters.  His podcast is very much worth checking out, you can find it here: http://bit.ly/CinePilePod_iTunesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Automation and artificial intelligence are already causing massive disruptions to commerce and industry all over the world. Economists warn that in the next 10 years, 30% of jobs could go away due to technological advancement. An unemployment rate that would be worse than even The Great Depression. How does society react in the face of this kind of change, and what can we do to position ourselves to be ready for the changes to come? In this audio version of my YouTube video, I discuss what I think are the best options.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
