The North Pole Unwrapped - Russell Kane, Felicity Aston and Lloyd Peck

In this Christmas episode of The Infinite Monkey Cage, Brian Cox and Robin Ince head to the North Pole to explore the dazzling science behind the northern lights, the extreme adaptations that help animals - and even Santa Claus - survive the Arctic cold, and how the Earth’s magnetic field might just guide him home. Joining the monkeys are comedian Russell Kane, Arctic explorer Felicity Aston and Polar biologist Lloyd Peck, as they brave the chill to uncover the wonders of one of Earth’s most remote and magical frontiers.

The Reset Button

Many of us rush through our days, weeks, and lives, chasing goals and just trying to get everything done. But that can blind us to a very simple source of joy that’s all around us. This week, we revisit a favorite conversation with psychologist Dacher Keltner, who describes what happens when we stop to savor nature, art, or simply the moral courage of those around us. Then, in our segment "Your Questions Answered," Mary Helen Immordino-Yang returns to answer listeners' questions about learning and how to keep students engaged in school.

#449 — Dogma, Tribe, and Truth

Sam Harris speaks with Ross Douthat about religion, modernity, and what can steady a culture that feels increasingly unmoored. They discuss the case for faith in an age of digital disembodiment, declining birthrates, and looming AI-driven upheaval. They also debate tribalism and dogmatism, whether secular societies can generate durable moral consensus, the foundations of ethics, consciousness and well-being, mathematics as a clue to ultimate reality, and, briefly, demonology.

Talviuni vai kirkasvalolamppu? – selviytymiskeinoja kaamosaikaan

Miten ihmiset ja eläimet oikein pärjäävät, kun valo ja lämpö vähenee? Kuinka esivanhempamme viettivät vuoden pimeintä aikaa ilman keinovaloa? Mitä keinoja meillä on kaamosväsymyksen selättämiseen, ja voisimmeko kenties oppia jotain muulta luonnolta tai aiemmilta sukupolvilta? Tiedon valoa vuoden pimeimpään aikaan tarjoilevat psykiatrian professori Tiina Paunio, etnologian yliopistonlehtori Anna Rauhala ja tutkimuskoordinaattori Hanna Rosti Helsingin yliopistosta. Lisäksi mukana etäyhteydellä kaamoksen keskeltä Kilpisjärven tutkimusasemalta on palvelukoordinaattori Hannu Autto. Keskustelua luotsaa Jari Hanska. Podcast on nauhoitettu Tiedekulmassa Pimeä ilta -tapahtumassa 2.12.2025. Katso keskustelu videona: https://youtu.be/_ufPssVwIiM

The Reality of Being Santa

Could Santa Clause still exist IF we stripped away the magic? If the ability to bend spacetime was gone? What conditions would Santa need to deliver a present to every human being on Earth in a single night? Hannah Fry and Michael Stevens explore the historical, geographical, and logistical realities behind these questions using population data, longitudinal lines, mathematics AND a healthy dose of Christmas curiosity to calculate the impossible routes, speeds, and time spans involved in a 12 hour gift giving bonanza at global scale as a completely average human being.

Holiday Message 2025 | The Romance of the University

Time for the holiday message! Rounding off the year with a brief and casual reflection on some issue that doesn't quite rise to the level of a full solo podcast. And hopefully something uplifting. This year, I offer a short apologia for higher education in the liberal arts and sciences, focusing not on the down-to-earth economic/occupational benefits of a college degree, but on the very real ways in which such an education opens up possibilities for personal growth. I think all of us in academia should be loud and unapologetic about the more romantic, idealistic values of the modern university. Happy holidays all! Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2025/12/22/holiday-message-2025-the-romance-of-the-university/ Support Mindscape on Patreon.
