Today we sit with the old questions and let them breathe again, tracing the places where life begins to feel like a presence rather than a computer. Turner walks through the fault lines of modern biology, pointing to the quiet mind-like shimmer in organisms shaping their worlds. The conversation moves slowly, deliberately, as if the universe itself were leaning in to listen. By the end, the idea of agency feels less like a taboo and more like something we’ve sensed all along.Part 1: https://youtu.be/MOr-FZ_ogTIPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:08:43 – Gene-Centered Evolution Takes Over00:11:10 – McClintock’s Discovery Breaks the Mold00:14:19 – Genes as Interpreted Signals, Not Dictators00:18:11 – From Mutationism to Epigenetics00:20:41 – Dawkins and the Selfish Gene Frame00:24:30 – Life Strives for More Than Survival00:27:47 – Culture as a Force in Evolution00:30:28 – Termites and Environmental Inheritance00:32:22 – When Literalism Distorts Science and Religion00:35:22 – Beyond Gould’s Magisteria00:39:02 – The Aiming of Organisms00:41:58 – Desire, Agency, and Evolutionary Trajectories00:44:14 – Human Exceptionalism and the Myth of Evolution’s End00:47:46 – Cultural Barriers to Integrative Biology00:49:39 – The Transcendence of Materials00:52:10 – Purposeful Behavior in Termite Societies00:55:35 – Preference and Purpose in Termite Architecture00:59:14 – Human Metaphysics and Cognitive Niches01:04:19 – Cracks in the Evolutionary Consensus01:06:39 – Biology as the Bridge Between Facts and Meaning01:08:58 – The Missing Definition of Life01:10:59 – Biology’s Identity Crisis01:12:36 – Rethinking Life and the Universe01:15:08 – The Origin of Life Problem01:16:28 – From Chemistry to Cognitive Emergence01:20:27 – Life as a Gradual Flame01:23:13 – Agency as the Heart of Biology01:25:42 – The Scientific Struggle With Agency01:27:04 – Turner’s Work on Organisms, Design, and Purpose #consciousness, #agency , #evolution, #originoflife, #emergence, #complexity , #cognition , #purpose , #epigenetics , #philosophy, #meaning, #physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
Economists Bob Murphy & Steve Keen come from very different camps. Today they sit together and pull back the curtain on how money really comes into being, piece by piece. Their exchange moves with a quiet intensity, uncovering the places where theory drifts from the world we live in. They trace the fault lines between stability and collapse, each from his own hard-won perspective. By the end, the familiar landscape of banking feels slightly altered, as if something hidden has stepped into view.Part 1: https://youtu.be/fKgiKFfnPqEPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:02:01 – How Banks Really Create Money00:03:39 – Support & Merch Break00:07:34 – What Is Fractional Reserve Banking?00:10:06 – The 100% Reserve Ideal00:12:27 – Why the Textbook Model Fails00:15:00 – Base Money vs Bank-Created Money00:18:46 – The Textbook Story Falls Apart00:21:07 – Loans Create Deposits: The Core Mechanism00:22:44 – Why Economists Get This Wrong00:25:56 – Public Confidence as the Real Constraint00:29:07 – Reserves Are Lubricant, Not Fuel00:35:09 – Policy & Logic Undermine the Multiplier00:36:46 – Who’s Actually to Blame for Crises?00:39:18 – The Real Issue: Loan Quality & Targets00:41:00 – Diverging Philosophies on Ideal Systems00:44:12 – Modeling Real-World Lending Mechanics00:48:53 – The Austrian Full-Reserve Vision00:53:03 – Commodity-Backed Private Currency00:54:37 – Ending Centralized Monetary Control00:56:58 – A Regulated Credit Framework01:01:12 – Elastic vs Fixed Money Supply01:02:22 – Political Obstacles to Reform01:03:16 – Market Discipline vs Regulation01:05:08 – Limited Liability as a Core Distortion01:08:23 – Asset Purchases, Bailouts, and Moral Hazard01:11:26 – Policy Mistakes from Bad Models01:13:16 – Productive Credit vs Asset Inflation01:15:05 – Is Elastic Credit Even Necessary?01:17:35 – Fixed Money Supply Lending Mechanics01:19:15 – Closing Reflections#economics, #banking , #moneycreation , #macroeconomics , #financepodcast , #credit , #monetarypolicy , #austrianeconomics , #complexity , #capitalism , #inflation , #recession , #centralbanking , #goldstandard #physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
Blockchain currency unfurls here like a hidden root system, threading through the cracks of the old order with a quiet, stubborn intelligence. Brandon Quittem walks us into that underground, where mycelial networks and decentralized ledgers start to align in unexpected ways. In his telling, money is something that grows, adapts, and remembers, shaped by the hands and hopes of the people who hold it. Ultimately, the boundary between ecology and economy feels thin enough to step through.Part 1: https://youtu.be/CG7msC0Rv5MPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:03:53 Why Can't I Spend Bitcoin at the Grocery Store?00:10:03 Bitcoin in Developing Nations vs. The West00:13:26 The "Criminal Use" Argument & Drug Laws00:15:56 Anonymity, Scams, and Lack of Recourse00:20:20 Exchange Risks & Custody (Not Your Keys, Not Your Coins)00:22:50 How to Start: "Get Off Zero" & Multisig Security00:26:18 The $800 Million Hard Drive in a Landfill00:28:22 Bitcoin vs. "Shitcoins" & Altcoins00:29:13 Handling Volatility & Dollar Cost Averaging00:32:27 Why Bitcoin is Unique: Outsourcing Trust to Math00:35:21 Is Bitcoin Just a "Faith-Based" Asset?00:40:49 Why Are Bitcoiners So Intense?

The Darwin-Wallace framework stands tall, but there are places where the seams show, where life presses back with its own kind of intention. Scott Turner guides us through those overlooked corners, tracing the ideas that slipped between theory and experience. We find organisms not as passive machines, but as players in a deeper, older rhythm. And in that recognition, the story of evolution widens into something more awake, more alive.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:09:00 Evolution’s Philosophical Foundations 00:12:00 Linnaeus and Early Taxonomy 00:18:00 Idealism vs. Darwinian Thought 00:23:27 Ideological Divide in Evolutionary Theory 00:25:03 Early Evolutionary Inquiry and Natural Theology 00:29:00 Darwin’s Voyage and Observations 00:33:57 Intelligence, Purpose, and Evolution 00:37:30 Geological and Evolutionary Gradualism vs. Catastrophism 00:41:40 Darwin & Wallace: Collaboration and Legacy 00:46:34 Mutationism vs. Natural Selection 00:49:44 Reconciling Mutationism and Darwinism 00:53:00 The Eclipse of Darwinism and Rediscovery of Mendel 00:56:14 Evolution, Loss of Purpose and Agency 01:00:30 Darwin’s Pangenesis Theory 01:09:06 Biology, Culture, and Evolution 01:11:07 Evolutionary Theories and Future Directions #history, #consciousness, #evolution, #criticalthinking,#physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
There is a quiet tremor beneath the floorboards of physics, a search for the hidden substance that carries every wave and whisper of the universe. We walk with James Ellias, @Inductica , through the fog of equations and theories, brushing his hands against the grain of the world, asking what material truth lies beneath our symbols. The conversation stirs old ghosts. Discarded mediums, forgotten experiments, the half-remembered language of matter trying to speak again. We reach for the slow turning toward something solid and ancient, the sense that reality still has a body awaiting embrace.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:04:37 Central Equations in Physics00:08:20 The Importance of a Medium in Physics00:10:00 Empowerment Through Understanding Physics00:12:36 Rationality and Truth in Society00:16:31 Existence vs Consciousness00:20:30 Discussion on Existence and Consciousness00:24:25 Role of Imagination in Existence00:28:10 Properties and Entities in Physics00:30:15 The Nature of Aether and Physical Mediums00:36:08 Clarity and Understanding in Physics00:40:26 Discussion on Force and Aether00:44:57 Relationship of Entities and Actions00:49:30 Theoretical Framework for Aether00:58:04 Exploration of Aether Theories01:00:40 Importance of Conciseness in Communication01:02:00 Understanding Physics Before Proposing Hypotheses01:05:15 Reevaluation of Flawed Theories01:09:35 The Evolution of Key Physics Concepts01:15:19 Context-Specific Nature of Constants01:19:43 Historical Context in Physics01:21:36 The Nature of Electrons01:25:53 J.J.

Today's episode opens with a quiet charge, Murphy & Keen circling the walls of money to see what’s solid and what’s only painted there. Our two very different economists argue over whether banks summon credit from nothing or simply pass along what was saved, each holding a different candle to the same dark machinery. As the conversation rolls, the familiar ghosts of failed forecasts and brittle theories drift about, reminding us how easily economics slips away from the world it tries to explain. By the end, it feels like a steady march through the uneasy heart of the financial system. Still human, still searching, still trying to make sense of the noise.

In this episode of DemystifySci, we peer into the very separate roots of banking and blockchain finance to find what’s alive beneath the myth. Bitcoin guru and amateur mycologist, Brandon Quittem, joins us to trace the fall of old empires and the rise of a new code-born freedom. The conversation drifts between history and possibility, where gold becomes data and control slips through the fingers of the elite. What remains is a question: can money succeed without those who steer its value?PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:04:26 The Genesis of Bitcoin and the Cipherpunks 00:08:54 The Fear of Government Control and Digital Currency 00:10:41 The Failure of Early Digital Currency Attempts 00:17:54 The Collapse of the Gold Standard 00:19:56 The Nature of Trust in Currency 00:20:54 Discussion of Properties of Money 00:25:31 Critique of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) 00:29:52 The Risks of Unchecked Debt 00:33:31 Introduction of Bitcoin as a Solution 00:39:00 Understanding Bitcoin's Structure and Security 00:41:58 The Origin of Bitcoin Ideas 00:46:49 Understanding Blockchain and Mining 00:53:06 The Mechanics of Block Creation 00:58:04 The Finite Nature of Bitcoin Mining 01:01:57 Miners' Revenue Streams 01:03:05 Genesis of Bitcoin Mining 01:05:00 Competition Among Miners 01:07:08 Future Perspectives on Bitcoin #bitcoinanalysis , #cryptocurrencies , #blockchaineducation ,#bitcoinmining , #cryptoanalysis , #cryptotradingforbegineers , #digitalcurrency , #moneymanagement , #fintech , #investingtips , #economics , #monetarypolicy , #decentralization , #satoshinakamoto , #physicspodcast #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
Dr. C.S. Unnikrishnan is a professor of physics at the TATA Institute of Fundamental Research, member of the India LIGO collaboration, and is a devoted skeptic of the standard story that we tell about the cosmological history of the universe. In this talk, presented at the 2025 Demysticon, Professor Unnikrishnan takes on the standard model in the best way he knows how - by walking through the conventional model, showing the places where it frays around the edges, and proposing the most promising approach for taking on this behemoth that seems permanently lodged in the popular consciousness. Filmed at DemystiCon 2025 in Portugal, with Dr. C.S. Unnikrishnan presenting.

James Ellias is a mathematician, philosopher, and the host of the YouTube channel @Inductica where he explores new approaches to old problems in fundamental physics. Our conversation moves like a late-night reflection, looking for the quiet engine beneath light, charge, and everything that flickers through the invisible world of quantum physics. James questions the habits of modern thought, peeling things back to the core to ask what truly acts and what merely appears. Older ways of thinking surface, offering clarity where familiar models feel thin. Together, we gaze upon the machinery of existence and consider what might really be at work beneath the math.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00:00 Go! 00:02:34 Support and Engagement Opportunities00:04:17 Fundamental Questions in Physics00:05:49 Critique of Modern Physics Method00:10:27 Importance of Philosophy in Physics00:12:59 Inherited Physics Standards and Traditions00:17:11 Re-evaluating Established Fundamentals00:20:10 The Nature of Electricity and Charge00:20:53 Exploring Electrons and Energy00:22:56 The Importance of Identifying Entities00:25:03 Concept of Aether and Action Historically00:29:15 Reevaluating the Physics Method00:32:41 Redefining Hypotheses and Conclusions00:39:08 The Role of Bias in Physics Interpretation00:41:10 Universalization of Radiation Laws in Stellar Physics00:44:24 The Evolution of Thought in Physics00:52:05 Communicating Complexity00:59:27 The Psychology of Persuasion01:00:51 Aether and Its Misconceptions01:06:49 The Nature of Physical Understanding#quantummechanics #quantumtheory #quantumphysics, #cosmology, #theoreticalphysics, #astrophysics, #deepthinking, #causation, #curiosity, #thinking, #physicspodcast #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
The universe hums a low, steady note...or so we were told. Dr. Patrick Vanraes, a plasma physicist from the University of Antwerp, joins us in that quiet static, where light and truth blur at the edges. We talk of cosmic beginnings, instrument design, of warmth beneath the skies, of radio echoes mistaken for the birth of everything. In that hum, between curiosity and doubt, the cosmos seems to ask who’s really paying attention.CORRECTION NOTE: Dr. Robitaille wishes it to be known that when he says "titanium" on our phone call he should have said "titanium dioxide."PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go!00:03:51 What is the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation00:10:44 Historical Development of the Big Bang Theory00:16:09 Conflicting Theories: Big Bang vs. Steady State Model00:17:33 The Redshift-Distance Relationship and Its Explanations00:21:12 Current Challenges in Understanding Light Behavior00:25:45 Reevaluating the Big Bang Theory Pillars00:27:50 The Discovery of Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation00:31:56 Temperature and Black Body Radiation00:37:46 Implications for Gaseous Bodies and the Standard Model00:46:16 Big Bang Theory and Plasma Dynamics00:50:46 Cosmic Microwave Background Discovery00:54:15 Pierre Marie Robitaille's Theories00:58:40 Intersection of MRI and Astrophysics01:06:02 The Nature of Black Body Radiation01:09:45 Discussion on Emissivity and Lattice Structures01:16:44 Exploring CMB Radiation01:28:07 Water's Role in Radiation Theories01:31:36 Discussion on Water Sources for Cosmic Measurements01:32:57 Historical Context of Cosmic Background Measurements01:35:53 Focus on Anisotropy Maps01:37:39 Philosophical Confusion in Cosmology01:39:31 Intentions and Measurement Biases01:45:18 Measuring Temperature Differences in Space01:51:14 Evolution of Cosmic Measurement Techniques01:52:51 Cyanogen Measurements and Cosmic Microwave Background01:58:03 Exploring the COBE Satellite's Measurements02:02:36 Critique of Measurement Protocols in Cosmology02:06:45 Summation of Arguments#astrophysics, #bigbang, #planck #cosmicbackgroundradiation , #astronomer , #fusion #quantumphysics #universefacts , #spaceexploration , #astronomy , #cosmos , #demystifysci #physicspodcast #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

In the quiet corridors where healing was once holy, something cold now slithers. In today's pod, two ER physicians step forward, voices steady, to reveal how the laws meant to protect truth have become tools of silence. Dr. Patricia Robitaille & Dr. Coleen Rickabaugh speak of hospitals that trade compassion for control, of doctors punished for refusing to look away. It’s a reckoning - part confession, part hymn - for a system that’s forgotten its soul. The two are now working in DC to rewrite the law that broke healthcare's back in the first place.Dr. Robitaille's substack: https://substack.com/@pattirobitaillemdPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go!00:02:01 Historical Context of Healthcare Corruption00:06:44 Erosion of Physician Advocacy00:10:01 Inversion of the Peer Review System00:14:08 Case Study: Dr. Christopher Dunch00:19:20 Proposed Legislative Changes00:22:40 Profit Motive vs. Patient Care00:25:00 Impact of the Databank on Practitioners00:30:34 Disruption Labels and Patient Safety00:34:28 Case Study of Dr. Ryan00:40:25 Flaws in Peer Review Legislation00:43:36 Physician Rights and Hospital Contracts00:46:04 The Impact of Credentialing Practices00:50:35 Case Study: Jacob Newfeld's Plight00:55:00 Evaluations and Their Consequences01:04:25 The Dehumanizing Experience of Psychiatric Evaluation01:08:21 Tragic Outcomes of Mismanaged Care01:10:24 The Flaws in Administrative Accountability01:12:50 The Corruption Within Healthcare Administration01:18:06 Systemic Issues in Patient Safety and Care01:23:40 The Need for Legal Protections in Healthcare01:25:29 Fraudulent Practices in Hospitals01:28:15 The Dystopian Shift in Patient Care01:31:44 Organ Harvesting Concerns in Healthcare01:39:43 Legal Actions and Institutional Corruption01:44:17 Consequences of Whistleblowing in Medicine01:47:40 History and Context of Sham Peer Review01:48:34 Advocacy and Legislative Action01:52:02 Patient Vulnerability and Reform Potential01:53:40 Education and Awareness Campaign#makeamericahealthyagain #healthcareheroes , #medicalethics , #physician , #patientcare , #whistleblowers , #healthpolicy , #dataprivacy , #healthcarecosts, #patientadvocacy, #philosophypodcast, #rfkjr MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
If we treat the universe as being filled with some kind of elastic solid, can we get any closer to understanding the nature of light and gravity as the product of physical processes, or is there still some deeper principle that needs to be uncovered before we can develop a unified theory of the universe?

What if the key to solving the mysteries of modern physics lies not in new mathematics, but in a physical interpretation of the mathematics we already have?This week, we begin a deep, two-part conversation with Dr. Chantal Roth about the Elastic Aether Theory—one of the first serious contenders we've found for a material interpretation of fundamental physics. Dr. Roth's quest for a deeper understanding of the universe begins by taking the mathematics of General Relativity, applying a set of material science axioms, and deriving what the mathematics of light and gravity tell us about the physical properties of the universe. Check out part 2, where we dive into the ether-based mechanisms for mass, light, charge, electricity, and gravity.

The Demystify Duo sits down for a conversation about the hidden variable that decides how successful someone’s ideas will be. Normally, you hear that intelligence, the “g-factor” that Richard Haier and other intelligence reasearchers point to, is the decisive factor for worldly success. And while that might be true in some purely quantitative sense that’s measured in terms of salary or stock options or whatever, that seems to not be the most important thing for being able to see the world accurately. We spend the conversation trying to define what that hidden variable is, and why it’s so important to cultivate, and how weird it is that no one seems to realize it’s there.

Dr. Emily Adlam is a philosopher of quantum physics who has just finished a book about the strangest feature of fundamental physics - the perennial confusion over what it means to make a measurement. We all know that quantum physics tells us that there’s this strange thing, called wavefunction collapse, which transitions a system from being in a quantum state into being in a classical state. But what does it mean to make a measurement? And what does it mean to turn a system from a quantum one into a classical one? It turns out that no one really knows, and we spend this conversation trying to figure out how that could be possible, after more than a century of theorizing about the foundations of reality.

Dr. Ivette Fuentes is a quantum physicist at the University of Southampton, where she studies the strange edge between quantum mechanics and relativity. We try to get on the same page about what it means to bend time, warp gravity, and what gives objects mass. We explore the philosophy of physics, the mystical cult of quantum woo, and how real science confronts the unsettling truth that reality might not exist the way we think it does.

In this episode James P. Dowling talks us through the unlikely friendship between physicist Wolfgang Pauli and psychologist Carl Jung. Their dialogue on quantum mechanics and archetypes pulled science and myth into the same room, forcing each to reckon with the other’s language. Out of their exchanges came visions of atoms haunted by the unconscious, and shadows that reached into equations. We follow their conversation to ask what happens when reason and dream try to share the same desk.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereJames' website: https://jungtoliveby.com/00:00 Go! 00:08:00 The Trickster Archetype and Personal Development00:12:00 Intuition and Rationality in Model Making00:16:00 Consequences of the Enlightenment and Modernity00:20:00 Historical Lessons from the French Revolution00:22:23 Discussion of Instinct vs. Rationality in Human Behavior00:24:12 The Role of Dopamine in Human Decision Making00:26:18 The Impact of Abandoning Symbolism in Modernity00:29:00 Motivation in Physics and the Pursuit of Glory00:33:26 The Dichotomy between Science and the Human Experience00:39:11 Integrating Jungian Concepts with Biology00:44:58 Discussing Jung's Word Association Test and Complexes00:50:12 Understanding Affect, Emotion, and Archetypes00:57:32 Jung's Methodology and Interpretation of Complexes01:05:12 Approaching Jungian Concepts in Personal Development01:07:33 The Quest for Identity and Self-Reflection01:09:37 Generational Differences in Self-Concept01:16:52 Life Stages and the Search for Meaning01:19:10 The Duality of Growth and Identity01:25:09 The Healing Power of Creativity01:28:31 Creative Participation as a Human Experience01:32:06 Internet's Dual Role in Creativity01:36:23 Understanding Creativity and Instinct01:39:51 Renaissance vs. Revolution in Institutions01:41:53 Engaging with the Unconscious Mind01:46:47 Shifting Perspectives on Artistic Process01:48:52 Discussion on Competing Teams in Science01:52:34 The Tradition and Lineage in Science01:56:12 Creativity and Glory in Scientific Pursuits02:04:36 The Nature of Truth and Scientific Frameworks02:09:43 Cultural Narratives in Science and AI Development02:10:29 Exploration of Myth and Reality02:12:06 Darwin’s Legacy and Evolutionary Theory02:16:52 Archetypes and Scientific Paradigms02:19:14 The Role of Mathematics in Physics02:23:39 Understanding the Limits of Rational Inquiry02:27:24 Simulation Theory and Metaphysical Speculation02:32:05 The Interplay of Mathematics and Experience02:33:00 Exploration of Human Psyche and Evolutionary Perspectives02:36:12 Jung’s Insights on Individual Calling and Collective Responsibility02:39:01 Invitation to Further Exploration and Collaborative Learning#jungianpsychology, #quantummechanics, #carljung, #archetypes, #depthpsychology, #unconsciousmind, #psychoanalysis, #philosophypodcast , #sciencepodcast, #longformpodcastMERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
Geologist Lance Weaver steps back into the circle, carrying a wild heresy: that five centuries in the Egyptian record are ghosts, smoke, a trick of the scribes. Strip them away, he says, and the Bible and the Pharaohs suddenly stare eye to eye, like two old enemies who’ve just remembered they were brothers. We walk with him through the obscurely sourced Kolbrin Bible, through the rubble of forgotten empires, through the hush of timelines cracking open. What if the past is not what we’ve been told, but a fever dream waiting to be woken from?PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:08:00 The Kolbrin Bible and Its Significance00:16:00 Problems with Mainstream Chronology00:20:27 King David and the Archaeological Record00:23:01 Analysis of Biblical and Egyptian Chronologies00:24:11 Connection Between Egyptian Rulers and the Kolbrin00:27:39 Trans-Oceanic Connections and the Kolbrin00:31:06 Genetic Evidence and Ancient Migrations00:36:12 Cultural Heritage and Historical Narratives00:39:32 Reevaluating Historical Assertions in Archaeology00:42:52 Discussion on Rational Wiki and Kolbrin00:46:56 Analysis of the Kolbrin's Origins00:52:21 Understanding the Kolbrin's Historical Context00:56:06 Cultural Connections and Dispersal of Myths00:58:31 Architectural and Historical Parallels01:02:05 Discussion of Drug Experiences and Cultural Constructs01:04:39 Exploration of Ancient Civilizations and Potential Connections01:06:15 Examination of Historical Texts and DNA Evidence in Egyptian Chronology01:12:58 Timeline Integration of Ancient History and Scientific Dating01:17:59 Investigation of the Hyksos and Biblical Narratives01:25:00 Exploration of the Hyksos and Biblical Correlation01:30:00 Revising Egyptian Chronology01:35:00 The Amarna Letters and Historical Context01:36:02 Understanding the Bronze Age Collapse01:40:00 Discussion on Radiocarbon Dating and Volcanic Eruptions01:46:00 The Importance of Egyptian Chronology in Historical Accuracy01:51:00 Trustworthiness of the Bible as a Historical Document01:55:08 Perspectives on the Flood Narrative01:57:41 The Intersection of History and Mythology02:00:01 Importance of Historical Context in Religious Texts02:02:01 Exploring Altered States in Historical Texts02:06:26 Challenging Established Historical Narratives02:09:02 The Importance of Questioning Established Dates#althistory, #ancientmysteries, #forbiddenhistory, #ancientcivilizations, #losthistory, #historypodcast, #ancienthistory #historicalmystery #philosophypodcast , #sciencepodcast, #longformpodcastMERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
