Podcasts about Sabine Hossenfelder

I'm excited to announce the fourth episode of our new series, What's New in Science, co-hosted by Sabine Hossenfelder. Once again, Sabine and I each brought a few recent science stories to the table, and we took turns introducing them before diving into thoughtful discussions. It's a format that continues to spark engaging exchanges, and based on the feedback we've received, it's resonating well with listeners.It was a bit of a slow month for science news, but we did find six stories worth examining, including what sounds like a preposterous claim, turning rain into electricity! It turns out it doesn't violate any laws of physics, but is not likely to address our energy needs. The Hype of the Month award goes to the claim of biosignatures on planet K2-18, which got worldwide coverage, even though experts were pretty certain it was wrong from the get go, and subsequent analysis finds no such evidence. A claim that gravity is just a computation is examined, and dismissed, while evidence for exotic antimatter nuclei at CERN is sound science, even if it is not earth shattering. It reminds us that exotic physics must be considered in exotic locations like the early big bang, or the cores of neutron stars. Sabine was excited about a new result regarding laser fusion, even if it is more likely to be useful for weapons production than commercial energy production, and this time, I was the one to bring up a new result in Quantum Computing, this time using ‘qu-quints' to simulate an actual physics system, although a simple one in two dimensions. It was another lively and thoughtful exchange, and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

I'm excited to announce the third episode of our new series, What's New in Science, co-hosted by Sabine Hossenfelder. Once again, Sabine and I each brought a few recent science stories to the table, and we took turns introducing them before diving into thoughtful discussions. It's a format that continues to spark engaging exchanges, and based on the feedback we've received, it's resonating well with listeners.This time, we covered a wide range of intriguing topics. We began with the latest buzz from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument suggesting that dark energy might be changing over time. I remain skeptical, but the possibility alone is worth a closer look. We followed that with results from the Euclid space telescope, which has already identified nearly 500 strong gravitational lensing candidates—an impressive yield from just the early data.We also returned to quantum computing, comparing the hype around Microsoft's recent claims to Amazon's quieter but arguably more meaningful development—a chip with built-in error correction, which could mark real progress toward scalable systems. From there we went to Earth, where a team at Princeton reported a result that almost sounds like a perpetual motion machine: using the Earth's magnetic field to generate electric current. It's not going to power the grid, but it raises fascinating questions.And of course, we couldn't resist discussing a new round of exotic claims about hidden structures beneath the Pyramids of Giza, before wrapping up with a reanalysis of decade-old data from the Curiosity rover on Mars. It suggests the presence of organic compounds that might hint at life—but as always, the story is more complicated.It was another lively and thoughtful exchange, and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

Today we are joined by physicist and philosopher Emily Adlam for her first appearance on Theories of Everything to challenge one of the deepest assumptions in science: that time flows. In this thought-provoking conversation, Adlam presents her “all-at-once” view of physics, where the universe is more like a completed Sudoku puzzle than a film playing forward. We explore the measurement problem in quantum mechanics, the role of the observer, the illusion of causality, and why these foundational questions demand both philosophical clarity and scientific precision.

Unveiling a game-changing discovery at the Great Pyramid! In this video, I dive into how SAR tomography predicted a hidden corridor in 2020—confirmed in 2023 by the Scan Pyramids team. Debunking Metatron and Sabine Hosenfelder, I explore the mind-blowing evidence, new 2025 research, and what this tech could reveal next. Ancient secrets meet cutting-edge science—don't miss it! Links to papers and more in the description.Metatron's debunking video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcbYVKfESAkSabine Hossenfelder's debunking video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqCudopAz64Correction/Update: Thanks for watching! I want to clarify a couple of points. First, the date on the SAR tomography paper by Biondi and Malanga ("Received: 07 October 2020") is likely a typo!The official publication record shows it was received on 30 August 2022 and published in October 2022. Second, the authors likely knew of the North Face Corridor's suspected existence, as the Scan Pyramids project announced an anomaly in 2016-2017. While I didn't claim their finding was completely independent, I also didn't mention this context. Their SAR method still accurately detected the corridor's location, showcasing its potential as a powerful tool for archaeological exploration. Apologies for any confusion, and I'll cover this in more detail in a future video!Check out my two previous videos on this topic: Pilot Unveils Pyramid Secret https://youtu.be/8DZ1p-lF3rI Space Radar Can See Underground https://youtu.be/-E_s4ipIGtUChris Lehto is a former F-16 pilot with 18 years of experience in the Air Force.

Mainstream science has been lying to us. From high-energy physics to UAPs, the truth is being suppressed to protect careers, funding, and power. Sabine Hossenfelder exposed fraud in physics, where experiments are designed for funding, not discovery. Meanwhile, whistleblowers speaking out about UAPs and government secrets are being silenced, and Area 51 workers are being denied cancer treatment to keep classified programs hidden. It's time to demand the truth.

Heute wieder eine Episode in der ich kurz über eine Thema der Wissenschaftspraxis reflektieren möchte, den meisten Zuhörern wahrscheinlich nicht klar ist, dessen Konsequenzen sich auch mir noch nicht völlig erschließen, ich freue mich also auf Emails und Kommentare. Das Thema ist wenig erbaulich, ist aber ein Puzzlestein, der gut in das Bild passt, das wir in einigen früheren Episoden schon angesprochen haben. Die Qualität des wissenschaftlichen Publikationswesens scheint sich im Sturzflug zu befinden und dies seit vielen Jahren. Die deutsche Physikerin Sabine Hossenfeldern sagt leicht polemisch: »Scientific Process is slowing down and most of what gets published in academia is now bullshit.« Was erleben wir in den letzten Jahrzehnten und warum hat mich eine persönliche Beobachtung zu dieser Episode gebracht? Warum ist das Motto der 1660 gegründeten Royal Society heute aktueller als je zuvor. »Nullius in Verba« Referenzen Andere Episoden Episode 106: Wissenschaft als Ersatzreligion?

In this highly non-topical episode, Matt and Chris dive into the entertainingly gruff world of Sabine Hossenfelder, the German theoretical physicist and popular YouTube science communicator. Known as a joyful science curmudgeon, Sabine excels at making complex science accessible to a wide audience. Yet, there's another side to her content: one that's increasingly steeped in the YouTube algorithm's culture-war-fueled clickbait, complete with prolific both-sidesing and even hints of her own brand of science-denialist rhetoric.We can already imagine Sabine's response: tone policing from establishment scolds who are trying to silence a fearless truth-teller for exposing academia's dark underbelly. Perhaps that's all it is—maybe Matt and Chris are aligned with BIG PHYSICS, out to quash any dissent about supersymmetry, string theory, or the academic publishing machine.Or… maybe it's something else. Maybe Sabine has pivoted to pander to the (so-hot-right-now) anti-establishment YouTube crowd, declaring that modern science has achieved nothing of value in 50 years and claiming that scientists (especially climate scientists) are too scared to challenge ideological dogmas for fear of jeopardizing their careers or funding.It's certainly one of those things.Whatever the case, join Matt and Chris as they tackle this perplexing case of rhetorical indeterminacy, unpack YouTube audience dynamics, and delve into Sabine's unexpected alignments with Eric Weinstein and her 'sharp' critiques of Tucker Carlson.LinksSabine Hossenfelder: The crisis in physics is real: Science is failingSabine Hossenfelder: Fossil Fuels Don't Come From Fossils?

A few weeks ago, I released a video about whether string theory's biggest competitor, Loop Quantum Gravity, might have suffered a fatal blow. The video sparked a lively debate across YouTube, with creators like Sabine Hossenfelder and Phil Halpern making reaction videos and Carlo Rovelli even reaching out to me personally, asking me to take it down. Now, I want to clarify the situation and share my perspective on whether Loop Quantum Gravity is truly on its last legs—or if there's more to the story.  Tune in to the Loop Quantum Gravity War! Key Takeaways:  00:00 Intro 01:02 My initial video on loop quantum gravity  03:42 Quick recap of my correspondence with Carlo Rovelli 04:32 The problem with string theory and loop quantum gravity 09:25 Reacting to Sabine's video  13:11 My final thoughts  Additional resources:  ➡️ Check out the videos referenced: 

Are we any closer to understanding the fundamental nature of reality? Experimental evidence for any current Theory of Everything is, at best, inconclusive. This is perhaps the greatest fundamental challenge facing physics. That lack of progress has opened up a sea of controversy. In this thought-provoking episode, I joined forces with Matt O'Dowd to debate some of the brightest minds in theoretical physics on the complexities surrounding the quest for a Theory of Everything. We were joined by Eric Weinstein, Sabine Hossenfelder, and Lee Smolin, We discussed the historical context and current challenges of unifying quantum mechanics with gravity, and the need for fresh perspectives and a broader range of approaches. Tune in! — Key Takeaways:  00:00 Introduction to the quest for a theory of everything 03:35 Lee Smolin explains different meanings of "theory of everything" 07:22 Sabina Hossenfelder discusses approaches to quantum gravity 18:38 Eric Weinstein critiques the current state of theoretical physics 34:38 Debate on the role of beauty in physics theories 48:37 Discussion on the testability of quantum gravity theories 59:15 Eric Weinstein explains aspects of his geometric unity theory 1:14:19 Debate on resource allocation in physics research 1:20:25 Advice for young aspiring physicists — Additional resources:  Connect with:  ➡️ Sabine Hossenfelder YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SabineHossenfelder Lost in Math: How Beauty Led Physics Astray: https://amzn.to/3kL9huy ➡️ Eric Weinstein The Portal Podcast: https://ericweinstein.org/ The Portal Wiki: https://projects.theportal.wiki/ ➡️ Lee Smolin The Trouble With Physics: https://amzn.to/3agWJpH Einstein's Unfinished Revolution: https://amzn.to/30LW7VV —-- ➡️ Follow me on your fav platforms: ✖️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DrBrianKeating 

In July 2022, we held an interdisciplinary panel at Magdalen College the University of Oxford on the role of beauty in science. The event was sponsored by Templeton Religion Trust and Magdalen College. The panel represented perspectives from diverse disciplines: mathematics, physics, biology, philosophy of science, and sociology.You can see the slides from the panelists' presentations on the YouTube video here: https://youtu.be/t6AQ9O2MLUY?si=VQpoyHYaMSWYpBoNThis is the second episode in the series; in our last episode we heard from Dr. Ben MacArthur and Dr. James McAllister. In this clip we're going to hear from three panelists:Dr. Milena Ivanova is Bye-Fellow at Fitzwilliam College, University of Cambridge. She is the co-editor of The Aesthetics of Science: Beauty, Imagination and Understanding (Routledge, 2020), author of Duhem and Holism (Cambridge University Press, 2021), The Aesthetic Nature of Scientific Experiments (Routledge).Dr. Robert Gilbert is Professor of Biophysics in the Nuffield Department of Medicine and Director of the University of Oxford's Medical Sciences Graduate School. He is the author of Science and the Truthfulness of Beauty (Routledge, 2018).Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder is the author of Lost in Math: How Beauty Leads Physics Astray (Basic Books, 2018) and Existential Physics: A Scientist's Guide to Life's Biggest Questions (Viking and Atlantic Books, 2022) and creative director of the YouTube channel “Science without the gobbledygook.”Support the Show.

 I've got a real soft spot for heretics and people who carve their own path outside of the institutions and societal norms and things that everyone is so pressured into because it creates this echo chamber and there's these cookie cutter outcomes, it's not conducive to getting to new ideas, it's not good for figuring out new things and to discover how the world works and invent new things. It's always a real privilege to spend time with a true heretic and today we're hanging out with Garret Lisi. He has his own unified theory of particle physics, combining that with Einstein's theory of gravitation Garrett's been slagged by the scientific community for this, even though nobody's managed to do a really good job of proving he's wrong and. I think it's a really great story. You don't need to know anything about these topics to be interested in this conversation. It's a lot less about the science, you can learn about that independently if you want. What we're really doing is discussing his experience of what it's like trying to bring a new idea from outside of the ivory tower of academia, especially in a field that has been trying really hard for 40, 50 years now with very little to show for it, with string theory and these other things that soaked up a lot of the resources and attention but didn't really get us where we thought we wanted to go. No disrespect to the people who tried, but we need new ideas and we need to work on those too. This is a case where the credentialism where the established folks in the scientific community exhibited pretty poor behavior and really tried to shut down an idea in the wrong way, instead of doing it the right way, which is to just come up with one that is better. Garrett is a super fascinating guy! If you are interested in figuring out how to live a life of surfing, snowboarding and doing a little bit of stock trading and not having to fit into the corporate world: this is a great conversation for you, cause Garrett has been doing that for his whole career. He's living off of stocks and he started trading as early as high school. I'm going to link to a couple of things that Garrett has written, his papers and things, but also I'm going to link to a YouTube video by Sabine Hossenfelder, who you may recognize cause now she's getting huge on YouTube, but she's doing a great job of explaining physics. She even has an episode that I really like where she discusses some of the problem with the scientific establishment, from her perspective as well.

Lisi has proposed a new "theory of everything" — a grand unified theory that explains all the elementary particles, as well as gravity. His theory is based on a mathematical shape called "E8". With 248 symmetries, E8 is very large and complex and Garrett believes the relationships of its symmetries correspond to known particles and forces, including gravity. Throughout his career in research and education, he has made full use of the technological tools available and developed strong expertise in advanced problem solving, the invention of mathematical algorithms, and complex calculations. This extensive background in science, education, and computing enables him to be very effective in addressing the complex social as well as technological needs of those wishing to solve hard problems. Currently Lisi is the director of The Pacific Science Institute, a "Science Hostel" that aims to provide scientists the freedom to explore the boundaries of knowledge in an independent and transdisciplinary research community outside the confines of traditional academic institutions.

Mark Zuckerberg outraged Senators and parents in a Judicial Committee hearing by claiming that there is "no causal link" between social media and mental health.The Senators also made Mark Zuckerberg apologize to the families of children who died or ended their lives because of experiences on social media.Here's the problem: Mark Zuckerberg is right. And this hearing is just another case of lawmakers and parents shifting the blame for their own failure onto others. Who should really be apologizing?Let's break it down and dig in.Resources mentioned in the episode:American Psychological Association May 2023 report: https://www.apa.org/topics/social-med...The Forgotten Lessons of the Recovered Memory Movement: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/27/op...Sabine Hossenfelder on the global mental health crisis:    • The Global Mental Health Crisis: All ...  @sabinehossenfelderEmma McAdam (Therapy in a Nutshell) on self-diagnosis:    • The Essential Lesson You Missed in Ps...  @therapyinanutshellWatch the video version of this episode: Subscribe to Unlicensed Therapist on YouTube and hit the notification bell to be informed of new episodesFollow Unlicensed Therapist on Instagram: @UnlicensedTherapistPodcastFollow Unlicensed Therapist on FacebookFollow Unlicensed Therapist on TikTokUnlicensed Therapist Design and Branding: PakkheeUnlicensed Therapist Theme Music: "Juggi's Gonna Kill It" written and performed by Ali A.

Sabine Hossenfelder discusses the physics of… dead grandmothers? Sabine Hossenfelder investigates life's big questions through the lens of physics, particularly Einstein's theory of special relativity. She highlights the relativity of simultaneity, which states that the notion of "now" is subjective and dependent on the observer. This leads to the block universe concept, where past, present, and future all exist simultaneously, making the past just as real as the present. Hossenfelder also emphasizes that the fundamental laws of nature preserve information rather than destroy it. Although information about a deceased person disperses, it remains an integral part of the universe. This idea of timeless existence, derived from the study of fundamental physics, offers profound spiritual insights that can be difficult to internalize in our everyday lives. As a result, Hossenfelder encourages people to trust the scientific method and accept the profound implications of these discoveries, which may reshape our understanding of life and existence. As a physicist, Hossenfelder trusts the knowledge gained through the scientific method and acknowledges the challenge of integrating these deep insights into our daily experiences. By contemplating these profound concepts, we can potentially expand our understanding of reality and our place within it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters for easier navigation:- 0:00 Is your dead grandma still alive? 1:25 Before Einstein… and after 2:53 Relativity of simultaneity, explained 5:14 Spacetime and the ‘block universe' 6:10 Eternal existence: The conservation of quantum information 8:22 “I know it sounds crazy, but…” -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Big Think | Smarter Faster™ ► Big Think The leading source of expert-driven, educational content.

Do humans have souls, or are we just particles? Physicist Sabine Hossenfelder explains. Have you ever considered the possibility of transferring your consciousness into a computer? Sabine Hossenfelder, a German theoretical physicist, believes that this may one day be possible. According to Hossenfelder, the fundamental laws of physics as described in the standard model of particle physics can explain everything in the universe, including human consciousness. She suggests that we are simply a collection of elementary particles, but it is the arrangement of these particles that gives us our unique qualities and abilities. As such, it may be possible to capture and transfer all the information about the arrangement of particles in the body in order to transfer a person's consciousness into a computer. So, could we one day upload our consciousness and exist within a machine? It's an intriguing possibility. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ About Sabine Hossenfelder: Sabine Hossenfelder is a physicist, author, and creator of "Science Without the Gobbledygook".

Is science close to explaining everything about our universe? Physicist Sabine Hossenfelder reacts. In his 1996 book "The End of Science", John Horgan argued that scientists were close to answering nearly all of the big questions about our Universe. Was he right? The theoretical physicist Sabine Hossenfelder doesn't think so. As she points out, the Standard Model of physics, which describes the behavior of particles and their interactions, is still incomplete as it does not include gravity. What's more, the measurement problem in quantum mechanics remains unsolved, and understanding this could lead to significant technological advancements. Ultimately, Hossenfelder is optimistic that progress will be made in the next two decades, given the current technological advancements in quantum technologies and quantum computing.

Why does time move forward but not backward? Physicist Sabine Hossenfelder explains. Why does time move in only one direction? This still-unsolved question was posed in 1927 by the British astrophysicist Arthur Eddington, and the concept came to be known as the arrow of time. As theoretical physicist @SabineHossenfelder explains, there's a longstanding mystery in the foundations of physics: If we look at the laws for microscopic constituents, like elementary particles, they work the same way forward in time as they do backward in time. But the same does not hold true on macroscopic scales. In this Big Think video, Hossenfelder dives into this mystery and explores how it has captivated the minds of so many scientists and science fiction writers.

Die deutsche Physikerin Sabine Hossenfelder erreicht mit ihren Erklärvideos auf YouTube ein Millionenpublikum. Sie stellt Fragen wie: Ist alles nur Materie? Gibt es die Zeit? Und: Ist der Wille wirklich frei? Ein philosophisches Gespräch über die Grundlagen der Physik. Die Zeit ist bloss eine Illusion. Die Vergangenheit existiert noch immer. Und die Zukunft steht bereits fest. Mit solchen Behauptungen begeistert die Physikerin Sabine Hossenfelder auf YouTube ihre zahlreichen Follower. Wenn sie Albert Einstein erklärt, dann kommen alle mit. Hossenfelder kritisiert aber auch die gegenwärtige Physik und meint, die Suche nach der einen, wahrhaft schönen Weltformel sei vergebens: Das Universum ist nicht schön, sondern hässlich. Zudem solle man endlich aufhören, am CERN in Genf nach weiteren Teilchen zu suchen. Man könne nur scheitern. Yves Bossart spricht mit der ebenso populären wie umstrittenen Physikerin über den gegenwärtigen Stand des Irrtums und fragt: Was war nochmal der Sinn von allem?

Please do more. You kept asking ‘why' to all of his moral assertions. While he has no answer, I think if he was pressed hard enough they would have to admit: ‘because the pie is fixed'. Dark ages mentality. Thoughts?1:19:16 Could Bidens plan to price control medication lead to more socialization of R&D?1:20:42 After listening to your books and others, I have come to hold that the best measure of a currencies health is it's purchasing power. Is that an accurate way to think about it? The USD seems to be the healthiest at that rate.1:22:03 A country's self esteem depends on its recognizing individual rights. The West values individualism implicitly but increasingly rejects it explicitly. How does that contradiction affect your view of the West's survival?1:32:41 People doesn't know that not all Muslim are the same, there is tons and tons of different interpretations of Islam, not defending the religion but treating 1 billion Muslim as one unit is not wise1:36:30 I'm 17 years old, and I think many kids my age would be interested in Objectivism but wouldn't want to read long novels like Atlas or Fountainhead. What videos or books should I recommend to introduce them to Objectivism?1:39:40 What makes adopting Objectivism worth the effort? I think most people would understimate that effort.1:42:15 Western civilization might not be that fragile. It seems magnificently resilient given that everyone is operating under bad ideas.1:43:42 Hard to say if it sounds better than before without doing a direct comparison ... but is sounds very good.1:44:57 What did you and your family do during the ?Six Day War in 1967?1:47:23 Thanks for your answer about the benefits of Objectivism. I would add realistic clarity as a benefit. There's rampant confustion in the world today from religions, including woke. Objectivism can cut through the crap.1:48:02 When you were growing up in Israel did everyone think America was heaven?1:49:26 Please make a custom sound for Michael Knowles. Whatever the death of civilization sounds like - a whimper?1:50:07 Do you think the bad guys have opted for a managed decline because they cant get their abrupt apocalyptic collapse of western civilization?1:51:38 Michael Knowles gives me those slick Nick Fuentes vibes. That 1220 clip he did originally came from Nick Fuentes.1:52:15 Max Stirner made that argument (he was a complete clown)

Is fundamental physics in trouble as past guests like Lee Smolin, Lawrence Krauss, Eric Weinstein, Sabine Hossenfelder, and Neil Turok have suggested? Dan Green is a theoretical physicist focusing on the intersection of cosmology and high energy particle physics. He's a professor at UC San Diego, where Into The Impossible's new studio is located. Dan discusses his career progression, his research, and some of the most significant, though possibly underappreciated, results in fundamental physics for the last several decades. Enjoy a great discussion and learn some new physics in our very first in-person episode at our new studio! https://twitter.com/nu_phases 00:00 Introduction 02:01 Dan's Origin Story 04:16 Theory vs Experiment 06:56 Significant Results Thread 14:12 How Emergent Ideas Form from Research 16:16 Sara Seager's Atmosphere Models, for Exoplanets 17:53 Is Physics In Crisis? 22:54 Science Psychology: The Ikea Effect 24:37 A Defense of String Theory 27:26 Physics, a Cutthroat Career 34:08 What is Supersymmetry? 40:36 Future Topics Connect with Professor Keating:
