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...

They’re mysterious, monstrous, and utterly indifferent to your hopes, dreams, or molecular cohesion. In this episode, we dive headfirst into the cosmic enigma of black holes; How they form, what they do, why they haunt physicists’ dreams, and what actually happens if you fall into one? (spoiler: it’s not great). From stellar collapse to event horizons, spaghettification to information paradoxes, we’re exploring the most dramatic “Do Not Enter” signs in the universe. TOD’s Obsession this week:...
