Today's transmission explores the Simulation Hypothesis: the idea that you, me, Earth, the cosmos (everything) is just software running on someone else’s computer. Are we living in a vast, digital illusion crafted by an advanced civilization? Or are we just NPCs in a universe-sized Minecraft server, punching trees and asking deep questions? From pixelated physics and déjà vu bugs to quantum weirdness and Planck-length resolution caps, we’ll explore whether reality is real… or just really well...

Terraforming: the ultimate cosmic home renovation. In this episode, we dig into what it is, how it might work (if science fiction politely becomes science fact), and whether reshaping entire planets is visionary… or just interstellar hubris. From altering atmospheres to engineering ecosystems, we explore the wild theories, real technologies, and big ethical questions behind humanity’s dream of turning dead worlds into second homes. TOD’s obsession this week: Planetary Interior Design... He’s ...
