Description
Today, I have the honor to welcome back one of my favorite guests on the show, Eric Weinstein!
Most of you are probably already very familiar with Eric and his work, but for those who don’t know him, Eric is a mathematical physicist, economist, podcaster, public speaker, and one of the most brilliant people I know.
In this episode, we will again discuss the universe's current state, whether we are heading towards nuclear war, the twin nuclei problem of cell and atom, aliens, physics, and much more.
Tune in!
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
Are we heading towards a nuclear war? (00:53)
What would happen the next day after we discovered aliens? (20:41)
Nuclear fission, the Manhattan Project, and the collapse of civilization (26:23)
Will we ever get off the planet? (41:22)
Intuitive and rational minds (53:47)
On theories of everything (56:37)
What Eric does to take care of himself (1:14:51)
Outro (1:17:04)
