This episode can be seen as a stand-alone summary of our analysis and rejection of
the multiverse, or as a review of the main points of this season. It’s perfect for anyone
interested in understanding why the multiverse fails but doesn’t have the stamina to
listen to the whole season. You can find a written version of the episode here. We also
just released the first episode of the complete Season 2 about Multiverse on our
@PhysicsToGod YouTube channel.

Some points we discuss in this episode include: The Fine Tuning Argument, Three
Premises of Multiverse, Many Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics, Eternal
Inflation, String Theory, Naive Multiverse, Is Our Grand Universe Typical?, Infinities
and Measures, The Boltzmann Brain Problem, The Three Layers of the Measure
Problem, Is the Multiverse Science?
