472: Appreciating the majestic beauty of the universe using our tiny human brain with Prof. Brian Greene
Professor Brian Greene is a world renowned theoretical physicist, mathematician, and string theorist.
The primary goal of string theory is to unify the two pillars of modern physics, quantum mechanics and general relativity.
Among his most influential contributions are the first semi-realistic models based on explicit string compactifications, the discovery of mirror symmetry, and early calculations of microwave background imprints of quantum gravity.
He is the director of Columbia’s Center for Theoretical Physics.
Chairman of the World Science Festival since co-founding it in 2008
To speak with an academic like Brian is an incredible honour. And you actually have the chance to be in the same room as him in a few weeks from now.

471: A Bold Conversation with Libbi Gorr
You’ve heard about people ‘reinventing themselves’ but did you ever wonder how it was actually done?
Libbi Gorr is a multi-award winning radio and tv broadcaster who as the satirical character Elle McFeast became the first woman in Australia to helm her own national night-time variety show Elle McFeast Live.
When a clearly drunk notorious hitman Chopper Read staggered on stage to be interviewed, and proceeded to laugh while joking about killing a man by putting him in a cement mixer - fair to say the shit hit the fan.
The absolute rocket that was Elle McFeast was riding into the heights of career success took a very unexpected turn.
Her show which had been commissioned for 32 episodes ran only 16, and well before social media cancel culture was invented, the manufactured media outrage around the moment essentially ended Elle McFeast - sending Libbi to seek cover, where she put things back together to reemerge anew.
It was an enormously high-profile moment, one which she talks about with her show Bold Conversations, happening at The Malthouse theatre in Melbourne this Thursday - and we touch on as well during our chat on this episode.

Customer Reviews
Wow!
There is something so calming and reassuring about listening to Osher and his guests. Every Monday and Friday, Osher checks in, and speaks so openly and honestly about his struggles and what’s going well in his life. He speaks frankly with his guests, and always gives you something to think about. Thank you Osher, for helping me make today that little bit better than yesterday. I can’t recommend your podcast highly enough, and can’t wait for future conversations, with fascinating people, which are bound to make me think.
Listening from London
