  • In this episode of Theories of Everything, Curt Jaimungal speaks with physicist Avshalom Elitzur, co-creator of the famous bomb-testing experiment, as he unveils a bold new vision of reality where spacetime emerges from quantum interactions in pure nothingness. Elitzur challenges conventional physics with ideas like negative mass particles and the continuous creation of spacetime, offering a fresh perspective on the nature of existence.

  • In today's episode, biologist Rupert Sheldrake, a former research fellow at Cambridge University with a PhD in biochemistry, explores the concepts of morphic resonance, the extended mind, and telepathy, challenging mainstream scientific paradigms. Sheldrake discusses how memory and habits may exist beyond the brain, proposing that our consciousness and gaze have tangible, measurable effects on the world around us.
