Description

Exploring theoretical physics, consciousness, Ai, and God in a technically rigorous manner. If you'd like to support this endeavor, then please visit the Patreon ( https://patreon.com/curtjaimungal ). Thank you for your charitable and kindhearted support. My name's Curt Jaimungal, a Torontonian with a degree in mathematical physics from the University of Toronto and I analyze various Theories of Everything from this analytic perspective, though more and more opening up to alternative approaches. The separating factor of TOE from other podcasts is its focus on depth even at the risk of limiting the audience due to how much detail we delve into subjects. Paralleling the intensity found in academic discourse, we're increasingly embracing a spectrum of unconventional ideas to conduct research during this podcast, rather than merely conveying existing information.

Sir Roger Penrose is a renowned physicist and mathematician known for pioneering the theory of twistors and his contributions to differential geometry, which have significantly impacted our understanding of space-time. Roger's work has been instrumental in advancing theories related to general relativity and quantum mechanics, including the Penrose-Hawking singularity theorems.

If anyone deserves fame and fortune for your work and attitude in this community, it's Kurt 👏 what a brilliant man

I want to believe Dr. Greer, but his entire affect is off-putting (to me, anyway). I have worked in the largest federal biomedical research organization in the US for >30 years, & in this time have worked with Nobel Laureates, bench scientists, clinicians, you name it. Dr. Greer's prickly attitude when being pressed for facts and his name dropping are tiresome. A large part of scientific discussion centers around citing sources and providing tangible proof. He gets so irritated when asked for specifics; I can't quite put my finger on it. It's similar to having a discussion with an over-sensitive adolescent. Curt did a great job of working around Dr. Greer's ego...

Mr Greer says that 'Alien abduction' is human (US) instigated. If that was so then why wouldn't the US goto Russia and 'Abduct' Mr Putin for World peace? #nuke #Ukraine #UAP #CE5

Hello Curt, you have some great guests. You do need to work on your research so that you stop jumping all over the place with your questions. You will develop some more empathy with experience so that you then have great conversations with your guests rather sounding like Rain Man asking questions.
