The Nobel Prize, regardless of category, has always been surrounded by politics, intrigue, even scandal. But those pale in comparison to the Peace Prize.In Betraying the Nobel, Norwegian writer Unni Turrettini completely upends what we thought we knew about the Peace Prize—both its history and how it is awarded.As 1984’s winner, Desmond Tutu, put it, “No sooner had I got the Nobel Peace Prize than I became an instant oracle.” However, the Peace Prize as we know it is corrupt at its core.In the years surrounding World War I and II, the Nobel Peace Prize became a beacon of hope, and, through its peace champions, became a reference and an inspiration around the world. But along the way, something went wrong. Alfred Nobel made the mistake of leaving it to the Norwegian Parliament to elect the members of the Peace Prize committee, which has filled the committee with politicians more loyal to their political party’s agenda than to Nobel’s prize's prerogative. As a result, winners are often a result of political expediency.Betraying the Nobel will delve into the surprising, and often corrupt, history of the prize, and examine what the committee hoped to obtain by its choices, including the now-infamously awarded Cordell Hull, as well as Henry Kissinger, Al Gore, and Barack Obama.  Turrettini shows the effects of increased media attention, which have turned the Nobel into a popularity prize, and a controversial and provocative commendation. Turrettini is in conversation with Brian Keating, Distinguished Professor of Physics at the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences at UC San Diego, and author of the book Losing the Nobel Prize.

Dr. Andrew Friedman is an astronomer, cosmologist, and data scientist. He’s currently an NSF funded Assistant Research Scientist at the University of California at San Diego Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences. He is also a Research Affiliate in the MIT Program in Science, Technology and Society. He holds a Ph.D. in Astronomy and Astrophysics from Harvard. We chatted about the apparent, seemingly contrived conflict between science and religion. We explored some of the sources of this conflict and how, with a good perspective, they are not really at odds. We looked at faith, both in science and religion, Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, proof of God’s existence, varying views about what God is, approaching the subject with humility, and how the Bible cannot really serve as a science textbook. Join us as we get our theology hats on.

Dr. Brian Keating is a professor of physics at the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences in the Department of Physics at the University of California. He is a public speaker, inventor, and an expert in the study of the universe’s oldest light, the cosmic microwave background (CMB), using it to learn about the origin and evolution of the universe. He is a pioneer in the search for the earliest physical evidence of the inflationary epoch, the theorized period of expansion of space in the early universe directly after the Big Bang. He is the author of “Losing the Nobel Prize: A Story of Cosmology, Ambition, and the Perils of Science's Highest Honor” In this show we discuss; 3 Biggest questions Origin if the universe? what preceded our universe? How did life emerge from non-life? How to life turn into conscious life The 4 Nobel Truths of the Buddha Why Brian stopped pursuing the Nobel Prize Nobel prize and institutional funding The biggest problems facing humanity right now Maslow’s hierarchy of needs? Why we have to have meaning! Why struggle is necessary? The power of the 10 commandments Understanding Idol worship Israel vs Muslim origin meaning Why you should live well in this life and not worry too much about the afterlife Exploring GOD The golden rule Why being here is improbable The Drake equation The work of Adam Frank Exploring God and Consciousness www.mattbelair.com/ & www.patreon.com/mattbelair sign up for the email list and most importantly do 1 act of kindness today!

The synchronicity between the fall equinox and the launch of season three is off the chain. I wish we could say that we planned this release schedule, but that would be a farce. While the level of epic that is the equinox is massive, the launch of season three is one that you need to get stoked for. We kick off the season with a conversation that will blow your mind on the scale of the big bang theory, which we discuss today with Dr. Brian Keating. Dr. Keating is a professor of physics at the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences in the Department of Physics at the University of California, San Diego. He is a public speaker, inventor, and an expert in the study of the universe’s oldest light, the cosmic microwave background. Keating is also a pioneer in the search for the earliest physical evidence of the inflationary epoch, the theorized period of expansion of space in the early universe directly after the Big Bang.Keating is also the distinguished author of Losing the Nobel Prize which was released with overwhelming praise on September 24, 2018. Today, Andrew and CK connect with Dr. Keating to discuss his work surrounding the expansion of the universe and the Big Bang, his book and the experiences that motivated him to write the the best-selling Losing the Nobel Prize, and exploring what Brian calls the inside story of a quest to unlock one of cosmology’s biggest mysteries, derailed by the lure of the Nobel Prize. Gear up to get your space on and mind blown as we launch season three - now with more ham horn! Fresh new look; same great taste.

Dr. Brian Keating is a professor of physics and astronomy at the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences in the Department of Physics at University of California, San Diego.Keating's research area is the study of the origin and evolution of the universe.He’s the author of the book Losing the Nobel Prize published in 2018. It’s a book for those who haven’t won a Nobel Prize, or haven’t won their personal version of the Nobel Prize. We talked about the fascinating world of the Universe from a scientific perspective and how this relates to gratitude.And here is Brian's podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/into-the-impossible/id1169885840

Dr. Andrew Friedman is an astronomer, cosmologist, and data scientist. He’s currently an NSF funded Assistant Research Scientist at the University of California at San Diego Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences. He is also a Research Affiliate in the MIT Program in Science, Technology and Society. He holds a Ph.D. in Astronomy and Astrophysics from Harvard. We chatted about how science fiction inspired him as a youth to become a cosmologist. Also, how important it is to have a Ph.D. thesis advisor who’s enthusiastically supportive. Then, we got into some cool topics of cosmology: using Type Ia supernovae to measure the rate of expansion of the universe, why infrared observations of those stars are helpful, whether quantum entanglement suggests a substrate on which spacetime resides, the multiverse, and the implications of the Planck length and Higgs field for our very existence.

Brian Keating is a Professor of Physics and Astronomy at the Centre for Astrophysics & Space Sciences at University of California. How would it feel to almost receive the Nobel Prize and have it torn from your grasp? Today we're going to find out, albeit at Professor Keating's expense. Expect to learn what it takes to build a telescope that can detect the farthest regions of space in the Antarctic, what the Nobel Prize originally set out to achieve and how the politics of the physics community can often get in the way of progress.

What if sciences most coved prize was a golden calf in disguise? When was the first time you looked deep into the night sky? When Brian Keating was a young boy looking into the night sky, he noticed a brilliant light coming from the moon and a nearby star (later confirmed as the planet Jupiter) and realized he needed to know everything about the cosmos. Today, Keating is a Professor of Physics at the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences at the University of California, San Diego, and newly the author of Losing The Nobel Prize: A Story of Cosmology, Ambition, and the Perils of Science’s Highest Honor. As a call for the reform of the Nobel Prize system, Losing The Nobel Prize points to many of the ethical and social missteps of the Prize’s current practices that inhibit its promise of a meritocratic and scientific approach to the entire study of science. The book delves into topics such as: the religion of atheism, the misinformed “sanctity” of the Nobel Prize, the pitfall human condition of idol worship, and the ultimate humanity of science. In today’s episode, he sits down with us in his office at UCSD to discuss the inspiration behind the book, some of the major realizations he had while writing, and his overall philosophy in regards to the topics discussed in the book.
