What if EVERYTHING we know about reality is missing a deeper operating system?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Brian Keating (professor of physics, experimental cosmologist, and host of the Into the Impossible podcast) dives into the biggest unanswered questions in science, consciousness, God, the Big Bang, extraterrestrial life, simulation theory, and the hidden limits of human knowledge.Dr. Keating breaks down:- Why humanity NEEDS a Grand Unified Theory before we can ever reach a true “Theory of Everything”, and how scientists are trying to uncover the operating system of reality itself- “A telescope is a time machine”: How looking into deep space is literally looking backward through time toward the origins of existence- Shocking scientific and philosophical implications of the Big Bang, and the terrifying question: What was BEFORE time?- Could another universe have collapsed to create ours?- Why studying space-time itself may unlock secrets hidden before the beginning of the universe- Why the Big Bang explains the expanding universe, and where modern cosmology still breaks down- How Dr. Keating reconciles being both a scientist & a person of faith- Can God & science coexist? How God may tie into the creation of the universe through a scientific lens- Why God's existence should not be subjected to scientific testing- Hidden limits of both religion AND scientific data- Where consciousness may actually come from according to modern physics- Why the role of scientists is not to “prove” things- Why even world-famous scientists secretly struggle with imposter syndrome- Deistic implications of the Simulation Hypothesis, and whether reality itself could be engineered- Search for extraterrestrial life: why we still have ZERO confirmed evidence despite viral claims- Debunking alleged “signs of life” on Mars and separating science from speculation- His take on the mysterious deaths and disappearances of U.S. scientists connected to nuclear & aerospace research- Could unexplained events be connected to UAPs, nonhuman intelligence, or classified technology?- Cattle mutilations, alleged energy weapons, and why unexplained phenomena always breed suspicion- Why uncertainty is one of the most dangerous (and fascinating) forces in human civilizationThis episode explores the edge where cosmology, philosophy, consciousness, religion, and the unknown collide.If you're fascinated by the Big Bang, aliens, simulation theory, UAPs, consciousness, physics, God, or the future of humanity, this conversation will completely change how you think about reality itself!Substack newsletter & transcript: https://briankeating.substack.com//mbbMayim's viewers only — win a real 4.3-billion-year-old meteorite: https://briankeating.com/mbbDr. Brian Keating's podcast, Into the Impossible: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJGKdZD30K_9rVCDAdRSwoJLi5ls6JN-qDr. Brian Keating's books: https://briankeating.com/books/Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tracy K. Smith comes to Shakespeare and Company for a conversation with Adam Biles. They discuss her book Fear Less: Poetry in Perilous Times, a bold manifesto on poetry as a tool for deeper living, clearer thinking, and more compassionate citizenship. Drawing on her time as US Poet Laureate, Smith reflects on taking poetry to rural America, and how poems, unlike political debate, can open rather than entrench. She talks about the origins of Fear Less, and why she chose to write a love letter to the art form rather than a polemic. Smith also reads from her forthcoming collection The Forest, sharing new poems on war, complicity, the divine feminine, and an expansive, unsettling "us" that includes those we revile.Buy Fear Less: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/fear-less-4Tracy K. Smith was born in Massachusetts and raised in northern California. She earned a BA from Harvard University and an MFA in creative writing from Columbia University. From 1997 to 1999 she held a Stegner fellowship at Stanford University. Smith is the author of four books of poetry: The Body's Question (2003), which won the Cave Canem prize for the best first book by an African-American poet; Duende (2007), winner of the James Laughlin Award and the Essense Literary Award; Life on Mars (2011), winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry; and Wade in the Water (2018). In 2014 she was awarded the Academy of American Poets fellowship. She has also written a memoir, Ordinary Light (2015), which was a finalist for the National Book Award in nonfiction. Her latest book is Fear Less: Poetry in Perilous Times (2025). In June 2017, Smith was named U.S. poet laureate. She teaches at Harvard University, where she is a professor of English and of African and African American Studies and the Susan S. and Kenneth L. Wallach Professor at the Harvard Radcliffe Institute. Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company.Listen to Alex Freiman's latest EP, In The Beginning: https://open.spotify.com/album/5iZYPMCUnG7xiCtsFCBlVa?si=h5x3FK1URq6SwH9Kb_SO3w Hosted on Acast.

En este episodio celebramos un hito increíble: el 20º aniversario de Podcast Generator. Nos acompaña Alberto Betella para contarnos la historia de esta herramienta pionera que nació en la Universidad de Bérgamo en 2006 y que acabó convirtiéndose en la base tecnológica y el MVP de lo que hoy conocemos como RSS.com. A lo largo de la charla, exploramos cómo un proyecto Open Source basado en la simplicidad absoluta, llegando incluso a prescindir de base de datos para facilitar su uso, logró perdurar durante dos décadas en un sector que no ha dejado de evolucionar.Alberto nos detalla su proceso creativo, desde las primeras versiones alojadas en SourceForge hasta el uso actual de la inteligencia artificial para analizar y documentar 52 versiones de su propio código histórico. Conversamos sobre la filosofía del software libre, la influencia de figuras como Richard Stallman y la importancia de construir productos que resuelvan problemas reales de forma sencilla. Es una reflexión profunda sobre la arquitectura de software, la evolución del podcasting y el viaje de un desarrollador que ha visto cómo su "script de fin de semana" se transformaba en un referente global.Support the show

En este nuevo episodio de Road to CTO, nos acompaña Susana Duran, quien actualmente lidera equipos de arquitectura y operaciones para los clientes más grandes de AWS en EMEA.La trayectoria de Susana es de esas que inspiran. Pasó de sus inicios como CTO en startups como Syncro y Hornet a la vicepresidencia en una multinacional como Sage, para terminar hoy en el mismísimo corazón de Amazon Web Services.Hablamos abiertamente de lo que significa liderar hoy en día, sobre todo cuando te toca gestionar el "FOMO tecnológico" y la velocidad absurda a la que avanzan los nuevos modelos. Susana ya vivió el boom de la IA conversacional hace seis años, cuando casi nadie hablaba de esto, y nos dio su visión sin filtros sobre el impacto real que está teniendo en el desarrollo de software y por qué la supervisión humana sigue siendo innegociable.También nos metimos un poco en el barro con la gestión de equipos: las diferencias reales entre liderar en una startup y en una Big Tech como Amazon, el reto de mantener el alto rendimiento en entornos de hipercrecimiento y cómo es ese camino de pasar de un perfil puramente técnico a tomar decisiones en juntas directivas.Support the show

The AI slop problem is getting worse. AI can crank out code, decks, and landing pages in minutes, but somehow everything starts to look exactly the same. That sameness is not just an aesthetic problem; it is a trust problem. I sit down with David Okuniev (Founder of Typeform and Supercut) to unpack what “taste” really means when anyone can one-shot a product, and why people still crave signals of real craft.We also dive into the hidden cost of easy creation: from small-team dynamics to a "65 PR backlog," we discuss how AI shifts the bottleneck from writing code to building a harness for shipping safely.Beyond the philosophy, we get practical about the future of async work. Supercut's bet is that the winning Loom alternative is not just about recording your screen, it's about searchable transcripts, AI Q&A, and agentic workflows that turn a video into a document your team can act on immediately.If you care about product design, reliability, and building honest software in the AI bubble, this conversation will sharpen your thinking.Support the show

Scientists have long hoped to find life on Mars. But one study suggests it's even more uninhabitable than previously thought.

Are we really alone in the universe? The question of whether there is extraterrestrial life is one of our oldest questions. And few nations on Earth are more captivated by the prospect of life on Mars than the United States. President Barack Obama recently made headlines by stating he believes aliens are real. And around 41% of Americans believe aliens have made contact with planet Earth. In May 2026, Orwell Prize-winning journalist Daniel Lavelle joined acclaimed filmmaker and podcaster Jon Ronson to discuss why humans, and Americans in particular, are so obsessed with encountering aliens. Drawing from Lavelle's new book, Chasing Aliens, they explored an extraordinary road trip through America's UFO heartlands – a journey that led Lavelle from fringe believers and interdimensional crystal rituals at the clandestine Skinwalker Ranch, all the way to Harvard astrophysicists and the corridors of government itself. He revealed what he found: not just the truth about UFOs, but something far more unexpected – a deeply moving story about loneliness, belief, and our unshakeable need not to be alone in the cosmos. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Mucho se habla de que la IA va a borrar del mapa a las agencias, pero después de charlar con Rubén Ferreiro, la sensación es otra. No se trata de si la máquina puede escribir un copy o diseñar un logo, sino de quién tiene el criterio para decidir si eso es bueno o no.En este episodio nos alejamos del alarmismo para entender dónde está el valor real hoy en día. Si trabajas en el sector servicios o estás montando algo, esta charla te va a dar un poco de paz mental (y unas cuantas ideas para no quedarte atrás).Básicamente: menos miedo a la tecnología y más foco en la estrategia.Support the show

¿Cómo se pasa de un equipo de 5 personas a liderar una estructura de 120 ingenieros sin que la tecnología o la cultura colapsen? En este episodio de Road to CTO, nos acompaña de nuevo Alberto Betella para desgranar los retos reales de gestionar el crecimiento técnico en etapas de máxima presión.Alberto comparte su experiencia en Badi, donde vivió en primera persona la necesidad de escalar equipos y procesos a un ritmo frenético, y cómo esa visión le sirvió años después en entornos tan distintos como la "Moonshot Factory" de Telefónica Alpha o su actual proyecto, RSS.com. Hablamos de la transición del CTO que programa al CTO que gestiona, de cómo decidir cuándo es el momento de rehacer un MVP y de por qué, al final del día, el éxito de un líder tecnológico depende más de las personas que del código.Una charla llena de experiencia, de batallas y de aprendizajes (a veces, por las malas).Support the show

Photo by Shannon Potter on Unsplash Published 4 May 2026 e552 with Andy, Michael and Michael – stories and discussion on AI, life on Mars, life of the Vision Pro, retro C64s and a whole lot more! Andy, Michael and Michael get things started with a brace of AI articles dealing with with a wide variety of topics.  First up is Meta's use of employee activities on their corporate computers to train their AI models.  Then, a discussion on the SpaceX and Cursor business deal.  Next, a conversation on a breach to access the Claude Mythos model.  Interspersed with these is a discovery by NASA's Curiosity rover finding organic molecules on Mars. With a number of articles claiming, and paraphrasing here, that the Vision Pro is bereft of life, shuffled up its mortal coil and joined the choir invisible, Michael Rowe shares his perspective on the subject.  His says his Vision Pro is not an Ex-Vision Pro. The cohosts go retro – as they are wont to do – with a flock of posts about all things Commodore.  Links below if you are curious and want to see what these devices look like. While no Artemis II image for this week's episode, do check out the minifigs.me offering of the crew, along with the jar of “Studella” in the links below.  There are a couple of additional bonus links that the cohosts didn't have time to include in the episode that prove that we can have nice things.

Only the magnetometer and plasma wave subsystem remain active. •       Engineers are developing 'the Big Bang' — a plan to swap older components with lower-power alternatives — to extend operations into the 2030s. Testing on Voyager 2 is planned for May/June 2026; Voyager 1 to follow no sooner than July. •       Source: NASA JPL — https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasa-shuts-off-instrument-on-voyager-1-to-keep-spacecraft-operating/   Story 2 — Curiosity Rover Finds Organic Molecules on Mars •       Published April 21 in Nature Communications, the study describes the first use of the TMAH chemical experiment on another planet. •       More than 20 organic molecules were detected in clay-rich sandstone from the Glen Torridon region of Gale Crater, preserved for over 3.5 billion years. •       Discoveries include a nitrogen-bearing molecule structurally similar to DNA precursors — never before confirmed on Mars — and benzothiophene. •       The experiment cannot determine whether molecules are biological, geological, or meteoritic in origin. Future missions including Rosalind Franklin and Dragonfly will build on the technique. •       Source: phys.org — https://phys.org/news/2026-04-mars-rover-compounds.html   Story 3 — Black Hole Jets in Cygnus X-1 •       Curtin University-led study published April 16 in Nature Astronomy directly measures the instantaneous power of black hole jets for the first time. •       The jets in the Cygnus X-1 system carry energy equivalent to 10,000 suns and travel at approximately half the speed of light (150,000 km/s). •       Researchers used the companion star's stellar winds to 'bend' the jets, allowing calculation of their real-time power — a technique compared to watching wind deflect a fountain. •       About 10% of the energy released as matter falls into the black hole is carried away by the jets — confirming a long-held theoretical assumption. •       The measurement will help calibrate future observations from the Square Kilometre Array Observatory, currently under construction in WA. •       Source: ScienceDaily — https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/04/260416071949.htm   Story 4 — SpaceX 600th Rocket Landing •       SpaceX completed its 600th successful Falcon booster landing on April 19, 2026, during the Starlink 17-22 mission from Vandenberg SFB. •       Booster B1097 landed on drone ship 'Of Course I Still Love You' for its eighth successful recovery. The milestone arrived just 7 months after the 500th landing. •       The tally includes 496 drone ship landings and 104 ground landings, per SpaceX VP Kiko Dontchev. •       SpaceX's Starlink constellation now numbers over 10,275 satellites in orbit. •       Source: Space.com — https://www.space.com/space-exploration/launches-spacecraft/spacex-starlink-17-22-b1097-vsfb-ofisly-600th-falcon-landing   Story 5 — Artemis Spacesuit Crisis •       NASA's Office of Inspector General report (released April 20) warns that next-generation Artemis spacesuits may not be ready until 2031 — three years after the stated 2028 target. •       The xEVAS programme began as a two-company competition (Axiom Space + Collins Aerospace). Collins has effectively been removed after missing milestones. Axiom is now the sole contractor for the lunar surface suit. •       OIG analysis: based on an 8.7-year historical average from contract award to first flight for comparable NASA programmes, Axiom's 2022 award points to a 2031 delivery. •       NASA Administrator Isaacman has publicly maintained confidence in the 2028 date. Axiom plans a suit demonstration in 2026 on the ISS or during an Artemis mission. •       A separate risk: if the ISS variant of the suit slips past 2030, the Station could run out of operational EVA suits before decommissioning. •       Additional Artemis delays: SpaceX lunar Starship at least 2 years late; Blue Origin Blue Moon at least 8 months late (per separate March OIG report). •       Source: SpaceDaily — https://spacedaily.com/sd-n-the-spacesuit-gap-why-artemis-iiis-2028-landing-date-is-already-slipping/   Story 6 — Skywatching: Moon & Jupiter Conjunction •       Tonight (April 22), the half moon sits approximately 3 degrees from Jupiter in the constellation Gemini, near the stars Castor and Pollux. •       Visible to the naked eye in the western/northwestern sky after sunset. Binoculars will reveal Jupiter's four Galilean moons. •       Southern Hemisphere viewers: look northwest after dark; viewing window narrows the further south you are. •       Source: Space.com — https://www.space.com/stargazing/the-moon-and-jupiter-steal-the-show-after-sunset-on-april-22Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/astronomy-daily-space-news-updates--5648921/support.Sponsor Details:Ensure your online privacy by using NordVPN.

¿Es posible llegar a ser CTO de una gran corporación tras haber pasado por el mundo de las ventas? En este episodio de Road to CTO conversamos con Álex González, quien lidera un equipo de más de 200 personas en un entorno crítico donde su tecnología gestiona 4 millones de nóminas en España.Álex explica su trayectoria inusual, desde sus inicios programando con siete años hasta su paso estratégico por el desarrollo de negocio en consultoras como T-Systems. Esta experiencia en ventas le permitió entender el lenguaje directivo y la gestión de expectativas, convirtiéndose en una ventaja para su regreso al liderazgo tecnológico como una figura "bisagra" entre negocio y tecnología.Durante la charla, profundizamos en el concepto de Enterprise Spec Driven Development (SDD) y cómo la inteligencia artificial está transformando el rol del ingeniero de software. Álex defiende que, en un futuro cercano, el activo principal no será el código, sino la especificación, y detalla cómo están estructurando células de desarrollo autónomas para multiplicar la eficiencia sin comprometer la seguridad en entornos regulados.Support the show

En esta ocasión nos acompaña François Derbaix para analizar una de las mayores paradojas del sector financiero: por qué el modelo tradicional de gestión suele premiar al que más cobra en lugar de al que mejor gestiona. François explica con claridad por qué en la inversión, a diferencia de otros mercados, un coste más alto no garantiza mejores decisiones, sino que suele convertirse en un lastre para la rentabilidad de quien confía su capital.A lo largo de la charla, François detalla la importancia de la transparencia radical como motor de confianza. No se trata solo de ética, sino de una estrategia de negocio que los ha llevado a gestionar 4.600 millones de euros siendo los únicos, o de los poquísimos en el mundo, que publican sus datos de volumen con actualización diaria. También exploramos su visión sobre el producto tecnológico: esa apuesta por la estabilidad y el "uptime" que prioriza la tranquilidad del usuario sobre los rediseños constantes que suelen saturar el ecosistema de las startups.Por último, François nos cuenta la realidad detrás de Bwater y cómo han diseñado un modelo de inversión pensado para el emprendedor que ya ha logrado que su empresa sea rentable. Analizamos cómo el mercado secundario puede ser una herramienta de salud financiera vital para que los fundadores diversifiquen su patrimonio sin tener que vivir pendientes de un "exit" lejano y muchas veces incierto.Support the show

Last fall, NASA announced that it found something incredible in a rock on Mars. A core sample obtained by the Mars Perseverance rover discovered a potential biosignature. In other words, a potential sign of ancient life on Mars. Dean Regas chats with Kathryn Stack Morgan, Perseverance project scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, about this chemical "fingerprint."

For decades, Mars seemed like a cold, lifeless desert — until now. NASA's Perseverance rover has stumbled upon something unbelievable: strange, seed-like shapes in the mysterious “Sapphire Canyon.” At the same time, scientists revealed Mars has a solid inner core — a feature shared only with Earth and the Moon. NASA's sudden press conference has everyone asking the same question: did we just find proof that Mars isn't as dead as we thought? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The tech landscape is shifting under our feet. In this episode of Life on Mars, our CEO Àlex Rodríguez Bacardit sits down with Linus Ekenstam to discuss the 100x era, a world where technology becomes 100x faster and cheaper every 6 to 12 months.Linus breaks down why the ability to write code has moved from a competitive advantage to a basic commodity. He warns that if you are 100% dependent on a platform's reach, you are no longer in control because your boss is an algorithm.The discussion covers the 100x rule and why you must assume tech will accelerate by 100x every year to plan effectively. We explore the death of the coding moat and why execution is now a commodity while taste is the new differentiator. Linus also discusses algorithm slavery and how to humanize your brand to build your own platform for true defensibility.We also touch upon the future of teams and why MarsBased is moving toward multi-faceted engineers over specialized roles. Finally, Linus provides candid feedback on his experience consulting for giants like Adobe and shares the hilarious story of the 1,000 burger party mistake.Support the show

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Brewstilled, I'm recapping episode 1 of Apple TV's For All Mankind season 5. After a period of waiting since the events of season 4 season 5 was worth the wait. For season 5 we're now in the year 2012 and the society on Mars now finds itself in a growing conflict with earth. We also got reunited with some of our favorite characters who find themselves in different phases of their lives. For Ed, he's living his life on Mars, but now faces a new challenge. For Miles, he's become a leader on Mars while trying to live a normal life. We also saw the dynamic between Aleida and Margo resume while Kelly continues to look for life on Mars. There is also a new generation of characters who will have their role. I'll discuss this and more here on Brewstilled with a Hazy IPA from Fog Belt Brewing as the beer pairing. 

The future is here… and it's already breaking down.For All Mankind returns with Season 5, Episode 1 — “First Light” — and after a massive time jump to 2012, the show shifts into its endgame era. New characters rise, old legends fade, and Mars is no longer just a frontier… it's a full society with real problems.Including something the series has never seen before:

¿Cómo se pasa de ser arquitecto de sistemas a dirigir un hub tecnológico de 850 personas?.En este episodio de Road to CTO, nos sentamos con Oscar Escudero, CTO en el hub tecnológico de Zurich en Barcelona. Oscar no es el típico directivo corporativo; su trayectoria es un "viaje sinuoso" que lo llevó a dejar la tecnología pura durante años para mancharse las manos en operaciones, finanzas y marketing antes de volver a liderar la innovación.Hablamos sobre por qué el mantra de su equipo es "follow the money" , cómo un perfil técnico puede aprender a hablar el idioma de negocio (en pólizas vendidas, no en líneas de código) y qué ha aprendido de invertir en startups para transformar la cultura de una multinacional suiza desde dentro.Si crees que en las corporaciones solo hay burocracia y sistemas legados, Oscar te cuenta cómo compiten por talento con los grandes como Google o Amazon.Support the show

It's the official policy of the U.S. government to work toward putting people on Mars. Debates about that usually focus on cost and national priorities. Less considered is what life on Mars would do to the people who go there. That, however, is the subject of a new book by scientist Scott Solomon. It's called Becoming Martian: How Living in Space Will Change Our Bodies and Minds. Solomon was raised in Champaign, attended University High in Urbana, and earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
