Podcasts about Stephen Hawking

The question of free will - and whether we have it or not - is age-old across philosophy, religion, and human thought in general. Having free will allows us to have meaning, responsibility, reward and punishment. Yet discoveries in neuroscience have put our ability to choose, outside of a set of neuronal reactions, in question.Do we have free will? Or is it an illusion? And, also, do we need free will/Join our panel of neuroscientist Patrick Haggard, Templeton Prize winning physicist George Ellis, and philosopher of mind and action Jennifer Hornsby as they consider where choice begins and chance ends.But what do you think? Is free will "real"?

This week on The Paranormal Report, things get weird, wild, and just a little unsettling. Jim and Dar dive into the latest paranormal headlines, from Senator JD Vance confessing his obsession with UFOs, to comedian Matt Rife bizarrely becoming the "legal guardian" of the infamous Annabelle doll and the Warren's home. A UK political party recruits a paranormal expert, while AI experts warn of humanity's end. We also revisit Stephen Hawking's chilling warning about hostile aliens, and a psychic shares signs your deceased loved ones might be reaching out. Oh, and if you thought this was all serious—you haven't seen the sea star with a seriously unfortunate resemblance to Patrick Star. Thanks for listening/watching!

The Authority Of Philosophy Over Science If you think the atheists are mad and don't watch our videos before commenting, wait till they don't see this one! In continuing the argument that philosophy should be considered first before one considers their science, we look at how the authority of philosophy is not only substantiated by philosophers but even by scientists who want to try and get around philosophy. Also, when they come into conflict with issues within their framework, they don't show you a science experiment but give you a philosophical argument. Suspicious, indeed!

Stephen Hawking a consacré une grande partie de sa vie à une question vertigineuse : comment tout a-t-il commencé ? Peut-on décrire scientifiquement l'instant où le temps lui-même est apparu ? Et surtout, que signifie réellement parler d'un "avant" le Big Bang ? Ces interrogations, qui semblaient autrefois relever de la philosophie ou de la métaphysique, Hawking les a ramenées au cœur de la physique.Dans cette vidéo, nous explorons son travail sur les premiers instants de l'univers, depuis ses recherches sur les singularités jusqu'à sa célèbre proposition d'un "univers sans bord". En combinant relativité générale et mécanique quantique, Hawking a ouvert la voie à la cosmologie quantique et à une vision révolutionnaire du commencement du temps. Son approche ne se contente pas de repousser les limites des théories existantes, elle redéfinit notre manière de penser l'origine même du cosmos.De l'instant zéro aux concepts les plus abstraits comme le "temps imaginaire", nous verrons comment Hawking a tenté de décrire ce que la physique peine encore à formuler. Ses idées, parfois controversées, continuent aujourd'hui d'influencer les chercheurs qui tentent de résoudre l'un des plus grands mystères : que s'est-il passé au tout premier instant de l'univers ?

Jeffrey Epstein had a deeply unsettling fascination with transhumanism, a fringe scientific ideology focused on using advanced technologies like genetic engineering and artificial intelligence to “improve” or even transcend the human species. For years, Epstein cultivated relationships with prominent scientists, funding research and hosting intellectual salons to promote his own bizarre vision of the future. One of his most disturbing ambitions was to “seed the human race with his DNA” by impregnating multiple women—reportedly as many as 20—at his Zorro Ranch property in New Mexico. Epstein described this vision to scientists and guests during private dinners and conferences, presenting it as part of a eugenics-inspired project to propagate his genes across humanity. He also expressed a desire to have his head and genitals cryogenically frozen in hopes of being revived later—a grotesque extension of his obsession with immortality.Epstein's involvement in the scientific world wasn't just casual philanthropy—it was a calculated attempt to embed himself within elite circles and launder his public image through academic legitimacy. He courted renowned figures like Stephen Hawking, George Church, and Murray Gell-Mann, using his money and influence to insert himself into high-level conversations on AI, neuroscience, and biology. Several of these scientists would later admit they were unaware of the depth of his criminal behavior during their interactions. Still, Epstein's promotion of transhumanist goals—particularly ones steeped in eugenicist thinking—raised red flags about the type of future he envisioned: one dominated by elite control, genetic manipulation, and the erasure of moral constraints in pursuit of technological supremacy.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The study of natural language processing, or NLP, dates back to the 1940s. It gave Stephen Hawking a voice, Siri a brain and social media companies another way to target us with ads. In less than five years, large language models broke NLP and made it anew. In 2019, Quanta reported on a then-groundbreaking NLP system called BERT without once using the phrase “large language model.” A mere five and a half years later, LLMs are everywhere, igniting discovery, disruption and debate in whatever scientific community they touch. But the one they touched first — for better, worse and everything in between — was natural language processing. What did that impact feel like to the people experiencing it firsthand? Recently, John Pavlus interviewed 19 current and former NLP researchers to tell that story. In this episode, Pavlus speaks with host and Quanta editor in chief Samir Patel about this oral history of “When ChatGPT Broke an Entire Field.” Each week on The Quanta Podcast, Quanta Magazine editor in chief Samir Patel speaks with the people behind the award-winning publication to navigate through some of the most important and mind-expanding questions in science and math.

On this week's episode of The Carbon Footprint, we explore the impact of everything from crime stats to card games to cosmic infidelity. Two mayors somehow reduced homicide rates in cities that were basically real-life Call of Duty maps. The Epstein files? Turns out the explosive reveal landed with all the intensity of a soggy Post-it note. We also ask the hard questions—like what it feels like to get cheated on by Stephen Hawking (spoiler: the betrayal is both emotional and theoretical). And in the biggest gamble of all, Uno is coming to casinos—because nothing says high stakes like losing your mortgage money on a skip card. Society's a mess—we're just here to track the footprints.

Most cosmologists agree that our universe had a beginning. But the finer details about the Big Bang remain a mystery. A history of everything would explain all, or so theoretical physicists hoped. In his final years, Stephen Hawking working with Thomas Hertog proposed a striking idea: The laws of physics were not precisely determined before the Big Bang; they evolved as the universe evolved. In this episode of The Joy of Why, Hertog speaks with co-host Janna Levin about his work and partnership with Hawking. Hertog, now at KU Leuven in Belgium, explains why they rejected the popular multiverse theory and instead explored the idea that the universe's properties are a result of cosmological natural selection. According to Hertog and Hawking, these properties must be viewed through the lens of human observers, who are also the consequence of natural selection. So, how could the universe have created the conditions needed for life to emerge? Listen to the episode below to find out. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, TuneIn or your favorite podcasting app, or you can stream it from Quanta.

In this special crossover episode, we're doing something a little different. From Our Neurons to Yours host Nicholas joins producer Michael Osborne to co-host his podcast Famous and Gravy for a lively conversation about the extraordinary life and mind of Stephen Hawking.Hawking, one of the most renowned scientists of our time, lived with ALS for more than 50 years—defying medical expectations while also reshaping how we understand black holes, the universe, and our place within it. While Hawking wasn't a neuroscientist, his neurological condition and his remarkable communication of complex ideas make his story especially relevant to From Our Neurons to Yours.In this episode, we explore:How Hawking's life with ALS shaped his outlook and scientific driveHis talent for making theoretical physics accessible (and entertaining)Big philosophical questions about the universe and the nature of existenceThe intersection of science, celebrity, and personal legacyWe hope you enjoy this crossover conversation.We want to hear from your neurons!

What can a lifetime of scientific discovery teach us about the universe—and ourselves? In this wide-ranging conversation, Michael Shermer sits down with Lord Martin Rees, renowned cosmologist, astrophysicist, and former Astronomer Royal, to reflect on the forces that shape scientific success, from personal luck to cultural context. Rees shares insights on the mysteries of cosmology, the search for extraterrestrial life, and the paradoxes that still puzzle humanity. Rees also shares intimate reflections on his friend and Cambridge colleague Stephen Hawking, thoughts on Fermi's Paradox, and why some truths may forever lie beyond human comprehension. The discussion also turns toward urgent global issues: the promise and peril of AI, ethical dilemmas in a rapidly advancing world, and how religion and terrorism could shape our future.

Ist es eigentlich möglich, dass ein Schwarzes Loch seinen Ereignishorizont verliert? Und warum haben wir noch nie gesehen, wie zwei supermassereiche Schwarze Löcher verschmelzen?In dieser ganz besonderen Folge sind Susanne und Paul live auf der Bühne im Planetarium Bochum – und stellen sich den Fragen des Publikums. Herausgekommen ist eine bunte Mischung aus spannenden Erklärungen, wilden Theorien und kosmischen Gedankenexperimenten, die unsere Reiseführer durch das Universum Susanne und Paul mitten hinein in die tiefsten Abgründe der theoretischen Physik zieht. Was ist der Ereignishorizont überhaupt – und könnte es Schwarze Löcher geben, die keinen haben? Susanne erklärt, warum selbst Licht hinter dieser unsichtbaren Grenze nicht mehr entkommen kann, wie Raum und Zeit dort ihre Rollen tauschen – und warum Stephen Hawking einst dagegen wettete, dass es „nackte“ Schwarze Löcher geben könnte.Doch das Universum hat noch mehr Rätsel parat: Warum haben wir bisher noch nie gesehen, wie zwei supermassereiche Schwarze Löcher miteinander verschmelzen? Paul und Susanne berichten von gigantischen Gravitationswellen, Frequenzen, die viel zu tief für unsere aktuellen Detektoren sind – und vom geplanten Weltraum-Observatorium LISA, das eines Tages vielleicht genau solche kosmischen Kollisionen hörbar machen wird.Außerdem werfen die beiden einen Blick auf eine große, philosophische Frage: Könnte es sein, dass intelligentes außerirdisches Leben schon einmal die Erde besucht hat? Und wenn ja – warum wissen wir nichts davon? Zwischen Fermi-Paradoxon, Drake-Gleichung und der Hypothese des „Großen Filters“ diskutieren sie, ob es vielleicht besser ist, im „dunklen Wald“ des Kosmos unentdeckt zu bleiben.Eine Folge, die Kopf und Fantasie gleichermaßen auf Reisen schickt.

With his art, photographer Platon seeks to strip away assumptions and leave viewers with a window into his subject's character, filling our eyes with wonder and curiosity. Sharing extraordinary stories of what it's like to photograph some of the world's most prominent figures -- from Michelle Obama and Pussy Riot to Vladimir Putin and Muhammad Ali -- Platon captures the disarming power of empathy and human connection.For a chance to give your own TED Talk, fill out the Idea Search Application: ted.com/ideasearch.Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

Einstein's Fridge: How the Difference Between Hot and Cold Explains the Universe (Scribner, 2021) tells the incredible epic story of the scientists who, over two centuries, harnessed the power of heat and ice and formulated a theory essential to comprehending our universe. “Although thermodynamics has been studied for hundreds of years…few nonscientists appreciate how its principles have shaped the modern world” (Scientific American). Thermodynamics—the branch of physics that deals with energy and entropy—governs everything from the behavior of living cells to the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Not only that, but thermodynamics explains why we must eat and breathe, how lights turn on, the limits of computing, and how the universe will end.The brilliant people who decoded its laws came from every branch of the sciences; they were engineers, physicists, chemists, biologists, cosmologists, and mathematicians. From French military engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot to Lord Kelvin, James Joule, Albert Einstein, Emmy Noether, Alan Turing, and Stephen Hawking, author Paul Sen introduces us to all of the players who passed the baton of scientific progress through time and across nations. Incredibly driven and idealistic, these brave pioneers performed groundbreaking work often in the face of torment and tragedy. Their discoveries helped create the modern world and transformed every branch of science, from biology to cosmology.“Elegantly written and engaging” (Financial Times), Einstein's Fridge brings to life one of the most important scientific revolutions of all time and captures the thrill of discovery and the power of scientific progress to shape the course of history.

The tortured poet. The rebellious scientist. The monstrous artist. The tech disruptor. You can tell what a society values by who it labels as a genius. You can also tell who it excludes, who it enables, and what it is prepared to tolerate. Taking us from the Renaissance Florence of Leonardo da Vinci to the Florida rocket launches of Elon Musk's SpaceX, Helen Lewis joined us to unravel a word that we all use — without really questioning what it means. In conversation with acclaimed satirist and screenwriter Armando Iannucci she drew from her new book 'The Genius Myth' to uncover the secret of the Beatles' success, discuss how biographers should solve the ‘Austen Problem' and reveal why Stephen Hawking thought IQ tests were for losers. Lewis and Iannucci asked if the modern idea of genius — a class of special people — is distorting our view of the world. --- 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.

A thrilling exploration of competing cosmological origin stories, comparing new scientific ideas that upend our very notions of space, time, and reality.By most popular accounts, the universe started with a bang some 13.8 billion years ago. But what happened before the Big Bang? And how do we know it happened at all? Here prominent cosmologist Niayesh Afshordi and science communicator Phil Halper offer a tour of the peculiar possibilities: bouncing and cyclic universes, time loops, creations from nothing, multiverses, black hole births, string theories, and holograms. Along the way, they offer both a call for new physics and a riveting story of scientific debate.Incorporating insights from Afshordi's cutting-edge research and Halper's original interviews with scientists like Stephen Hawking, Roger Penrose, and Alan Guth, Battle of the Big Bang: The New Tales of Our Cosmic Origins (University of Chicago Press, 2025) compares these models for the origin of our origins, showing each theory's strengths and weaknesses and explaining new attempts to test these notions. Battle of the Big Bang is a tale of rivalries and intrigue, of clashes of ideas that have raged from Greek antiquity to the present day over whether the universe is eternal or had a beginning, whether it is unique or one of many. But most of all, Afshordi and Halper show that this search is filled with wonder, discovery, and community—all essential for remembering a forgotten cosmic past. Learn more about your ad choices.

On the 16th July 2021 I released an episode of the show which became so popular that many listeners have been asking for a follow-up ever since. That episode was Time Slips, and it dealt with an element of the paranormal which many find completely unbelievable...until they hear the stories.We know that many famous Physicists such as both the late Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein believed that time travel was theoretically possible....it was just that our technology was lagging behind...way behind, and still is.The energy needed to accomplish a feat such as time travel is almost unthinkable and it's fair to say that it'll be hundreds of years in the future before the human race will even begin to dabble in this paradoxical and potentially dangerous element of science...but what if some people have already crossed over into another time...and come back to tell the story.

In this episode of The Kingdom Is For Everyone, Matthew Hester reflects on a surprising quote from physicist Stephen Hawking and explores the harmony between faith and science. What if the mysteries of the universe are not contradictions to our faith but invitations into deeper wonder?

In Folge 131 geht es rund. Vielleicht sogar kosmisch rund: Denn wenn das ganze Universum rotieren würden, dann würde das nicht nur eines der großen Probleme in der Astronomie lösen, wir könnten dann vielleicht auch durch die Zeit reisen. Wie das funktioniert und ob das so ist, diskutieren wir in dieser Folge. Außerdem: Sparpläne bei der NASA, das Ende des Universums und die antike Astronomin Hypatia in “Science Frames” mit Evi.

Battle of the Big Bang: The New Tales of Our Cosmic Origins examines the most profound idea: how did the universe begin? Watch the video, as it includes illustrations in the final 10 minutes. Although I'm not a physicist, I have read many books about the Big Bang, physics, and the universe. This book is an in-depth exploration of the competing models that hypothesize about our origins. I appreciated learning about the Ekpyrotic universe and Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC), two novel ideas. For instance, CCC posits that "the universe is cyclic but never re-collapses. Each eon expands until all mass disappears." "In the Ekpyrotic universe, the movement of the branes is controlled by a springlike force, operating in a higher dimension. What was being suggested was that this force is felt in our reality as dark energy." I also appreciated that the book included several illustrations that were essential for grasping these counterintuitive topics. One of the authors, Phil Halper, is a well-known YouTuber.  The other co-author is Niayesh Afshordi, a cosmologist. I interviewed Phil Halper on my WanderLearn Show.

Niayesh Afshordi is professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Waterloo and associate faculty at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Ontario, Canada. His prize-winning research focuses on competing models for the early universe, dark energy, dark matter, black holes, holography, and gravitational waves. Phil Halper is a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and a science popularizer. He is the creator of the popular YouTube series Before the Big Bang, which has had several million views. His astronomy images have been featured in major media outlets including The Washington Post, the BBC, and The Guardian, and he has published several papers in peer-reviewed journals.

In a wild Friday night ride, a revolving crew of Badlands hosts breaks down the newly released Biden interview tapes and spirals into the absurdity of the President's rambling tales of Mongolian horse races, sumo wrestlers, and archery contests. The crew debates whether Biden's dementia has led him to accidentally confess to crimes, while floating theories about Beau Biden's death and the deeper implications of Biden's obsession with his son during document-related questioning. The show doesn't stop there, James O'Keefe's latest “scoops” from Epstein's island come under fire for being more fluff than fact, while drone footage from Rusty Shackelford reignites speculation about tunnels, temples, and coverups. A spirited debate on Biden body doubles, SCOTUS rulings on immigration, and Matt Walsh's controversial comments keeps the energy high. Throw in some AI-generated Stephen Hawking superhero art, accusations of landline-based seduction, and the usual raucous banter, and you've got another classic Liberty Den episode: unpredictable, unfiltered, and unapologetically Badlands.

From Vedic kings to aging rock stars, this episode maps the journey from pleasure to emptiness to liberation. Raghunath and Kaustubha unpack why letting go of material desire—before the body gives out—is the key to spiritual freedom. Featuring: •⁠  ⁠King Yayāti, Lord Brahmā, Stephen Hawking, Billy Idol & David Lee Roth •  Addiction psychology meets Vedic wisdom •⁠  ⁠Why renunciation is the real glow-up •⁠  ⁠How material sex desire is a pale reflection of Krishna's divine love

With zero prior flight experience but a deep love for space (and Star Trek), Matt Gohd took the helm of Zero G during a pivotal moment and helped guide the company into a new era—one marked by resilience, accessibility, and unforgettable experiences that allow everyday people to float like astronauts. In this episode, Beth and Matt explore the incredible evolution of Zero G—from its bold beginnings inspired by Peter Diamandis to flying 22,000+ people, including Stephen Hawking and Apollo astronaut Charlie Duke. Matt shares what it took to revive the company after near shutdown, launch flights during a global pandemic, and expand access to space-like experiences for everyone—especially through impactful initiatives like AstroAccess, which brings disabled individuals aboard to test space accessibility solutions. Listeners will love the behind-the-scenes stories of lunar pushups, parabolic protocols, and even the “best nap of your life” after your flight. About Matt Gohd: Matt is the Chairman of Zero Gravity Corporation (ZERO-G), the only commercial provider of weightless flight experiences in the U.S. With a background in finance and a passion for turning bold visions into reality, Matt stepped in during a critical time to relaunch the company and bring spaceflight simulation to the masses. Since then, he's been instrumental in growing Zero G's impact, forging partnerships, expanding operations across the country, and championing inclusion in space. Zero G now operates in cities like Houston, San Jose, New York, and even from NASA's Kennedy Space Center, offering public flights, corporate experiences, and research missions for institutions prepping for lunar missions. Check out GoZeroG.com to learn more, book a seat, or get updates on where the plane will fly next. (Use code “MAT10” to save 10% on your own weightless adventure.) Matt also highlights collaborators like Tim Bailey (the heart of Zero G), marketing pro Erin, and CEO Kevin Sproge, who brings military and Blue Origin astronaut training expertise to the team. And don't miss the mention of Jose Hernandez, NASA astronaut and subject of A Million Miles Away, who often joins flights to inspire the next generation.
