Description

In this episode, we take a serious look at the question of why there is something rather than nothing. We explore the idea of Zero Ontology, which postulates that the multiverse is implied by the preservation of "zero information". In order to understand Zero Ontology, we need to do some conceptual groundwork. We walk the listener through several concepts that make the question go from "impossible to answer" or even "meaningless" to something that at least conceivably seems possible to solve.
