Our Guest Today is Ted Leo, of "Ted Leo and the Pharmacists" Fame. Our experts today are Dr. Danica Marsden and Dr. Stephanie Simmons.   Our topic is QUANTUM COHERENCE and DECOHERENCE: how a quantum superposition will not stay that way forever. The Environment will start asking it questions until our system loses coherence.

There was a time when light would not shine in the universe.  There was a time when nothing was shining, and the universe was full of light-absorbing gas. But the first stars came, and pushed back the darkness and made the heavens clear. This is the story of the dark age of the universe. Physicists Vicky Scowcroft and Mike Zemcov explain everything to THE TOLKEIN PROFESSOR Corey Olsen.

Oh gosh, we got carried away on the discussions in this one. the raw recording was about 100 minutes long, and even after some heavy editing, i couldn't get the "regular show" part under 40 minutes *shame*. perhaps... your clock is just running faster than mine? well... it's summer.  anyway!

Episode 20: Time Dilates When You're Having Fun

well. here is a very stupid riddle: How does a very small mole? if you answer it, send me an email and i'll send you a prize. lets talk shop. 1) todays show is about quantum tunneling. it features henry Reich blowing us all out of the water with his high caliber explanations. It also features Justin Pierce of Wonderella fame. you should watch one minute physics videos and read wonderella. skip work today. 2.0) sorry about the sound quality, i'm still fighting a new internet connection. I'm doing my best, and i have honestly spent about 12 hours edting this.  2.1) at the end of the show is a lot of content that I threw into the appendices. enjoy.  2) Apple has a new podcast app. go see if you can find us on it? if you can't write us a review or something. I'm still trying to wrangle it currently. I hate it when things change. 3) maybe nominations for this year's podcasting awards are going to open up? maybe we should be nominated for the science category? maybe we don't stand a chance against those skeptics podcasts. maybe lots of things happen. getting on that list sure would make a lot of people notice the show though. 4) KEEP SCIENCE IN YOUR HEARTS! 5) If we get nominated for a podcasting award, i'll try to find a better (cheaper) place that sells t-shirts. then, tshirts for everyone!

Fiona Burnell! Darren Peets! Ryan North! it's a Festival of wonderful. listen, i'm going to admit it here. I didn't know much about how superconductors work when i chose this topic. I don't know why i never learned how it worked, but I never did. whoops.  anyway, the answer is crazy. it has to do with electrons getting married and having to get their credit card spending under control.  I don't know if that Gail Lady visited them or what.

Alasdair Stuart joins Jocelyn and Dave on this episode. We talk about black holes and time: specifically how black holes affect time.Everything we say will make sense, because we will introduce the Equivalence Principle.  the movie "Twins" is referred to about 1,000,000 times this episode. BE WARNED.   this episode is rated explicit because sometimes I don't want to cut the mildly dirty jokes, okay?!

Zounds! What Fun! So when I started the show, everyone was like "HEY BEN! DO A SHOW ON THE HIGGS" and i was like "No, it's boring and hard to explain and they aren't even going to find it anyway." then they found it and everyone was like "Hey Ben! Do a show on the higgs!" and i was like "ugh, I need to do at least four episodes. One on particle decay, one on particel detectors, one on the higgs field, and then maybe a detailed on on how they found it. but that's hard..." anyway. So. here's a show on the Higgs field. It's how everything gets mass. kind of. we're in tip of the iceberg territory here. OKAY! SO! Today's physicists are Tia Miceli, and Matt Buckley. and our guest today is Greg Proops, The smartest man in the world.  Enjoy.

Some famous singing clowns once sang a song about magnets. The world looks down on a singing clown's ignorance, but how many of us can actually explain how magnets work?  the question is rhetorical, though, because the answer is obviously "yes I can do it because i am a physicist and i have clever physicist friends who also know a lot about it." i recruited my old pals Brian Sullivan and Fiona Burnell!  Our guests today are Matt Sheehy from the band 'Lost Lander' and Brent Knopf from the band 'Ramona Falls'.  the show is super extra long and we talk about everythinggg! from how magnetic fields are generated, to how magnets work, to how to levitate a frog, to how the sun and earth's magnetic fields work, to how guitar pickups work. it's a good episode. you should note that a lot of the topics we mention (solar flares, superconductors) have their OWN EPSIODES all about them.

Dave and Jocelyn are back, and we talk to Chris Lackey and Chad Fifer (from the HP Lovecraft literary Podcast) about Gravitational waves. Long story short, Physicists are on the verge of being able to listen to the music of the spheres... those horrible monstrous spheres which have been devouring planets and stars for untold aeons. Who knows what we will hear?

Appologies.  the audio turned out way crunchier than i thought it would be while we recorded.

Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience -- and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen? According to neuroscientist Anil Seth, we're all hallucinating all the time; when we agree about our hallucinations, we call it "reality." Join Seth for a delightfully disorienting talk that may leave you questioning the very nature of your existence.

Using examples from vacations to colonoscopies, Nobel laureate and founder of behavioral economics Daniel Kahneman reveals how our "experiencing selves" and our "remembering selves" perceive happiness differently.
