    What Your Face Says About You - Taylor Northcutt, DemystifySci #373

    Taylor Northcutt, the mind behind the Prosopa Youtube channel, dives into the forbidden science of physiognomy: the belief that the face is a map of the soul. From ancient mystics to modern algorithms, we trace how civilizations tried to read truth, sin, and destiny in bone and flesh. What if your features aren’t random? What if your face is the interface between body, mind, and fate?

    Teleportation, Time, and Rabbit Hole Physics - Dr. Ivette Fuentes, DemystifySci #372

    Dr. Ivette Fuentes is a quantum physicist at the University of Southampton, where she studies the strange edge between quantum mechanics and relativity. We try to get on the same page about what it means to bend time, warp gravity, and what gives objects mass. We explore the philosophy of physics, the mystical cult of quantum woo, and how real science confronts the unsettling truth that reality might not exist the way we think it does.

    Jung, Pauli, and the Mathematical Atom - James P. Dowling, DemystifySci #371

    In this episode James P. Dowling talks us through the unlikely friendship between physicist Wolfgang Pauli and psychologist Carl Jung. Their dialogue on quantum mechanics and archetypes pulled science and myth into the same room, forcing each to reckon with the other’s language. Out of their exchanges came visions of atoms haunted by the unconscious, and shadows that reached into equations. We follow their conversation to ask what happens when reason and dream try to share the same desk.

    We Need to Delete 500 Years of Fake History - Lance Weaver, DemystifySci #370

    Geologist Lance Weaver steps back into the circle, carrying a wild heresy: that five centuries in the Egyptian record are ghosts, smoke, a trick of the scribes. Strip them away, he says, and the Bible and the Pharaohs suddenly stare eye to eye, like two old enemies who’ve just remembered they were brothers. We walk with him through the obscurely sourced Kolbrin Bible, through the rubble of forgotten empires, through the hush of timelines cracking open. What if the past is not what we’ve been told, but a fever dream waiting to be woken from?

    Where Biology Goes Off the Rails - Dr. Michael Levin, DemystifySci #369

    Michael Levin is a synthetic biologist at Tufts University who believes that asking questions about “life” is a fruitless project. Instead, he argues that we ought to be trying to understand the emergence of cognition - a feature that he believes appears long before cells emerge. As part of this project, Levin has started to pull on a series of threads woven through the origin of life debate that seem to show basic elements of thinking systems - habituation, sensitization, conditioning - can be found in simple physical networks. We dig into how these systems work, what they reveal about life, and how his approach to understanding nature resolves a lot of biological paradoxes.

We sit down with him for a conversation that can only happen with an experimental physicist - about overlooked electrical phenomena that diverge from theory, how all the reports of successful low energy nuclear fusion reactions fall apart under close scrutiny, and a wild theory about where these weird vases are coming from.

    1000 Year Plan to Crush Thought - Michael Vassar, DemystifySci #366

    Michael Vassar is a futurist philosopher who believes that our civilization has lost the ability to think clearly, as the result of a silent project to destroy education that has been running in the background for generations. At the core of his argument is that the modern world has been shaped by elites interested in taking over the world. Interestingly, he seems to think that this multi-generational plan has backfired, and produced a society where there is a vanishingly small number of people even capable of formulating such grand ambitions, let alone possess the cognitive abilities to execute on their plans. We talk through his argument, and start to unpack some lore about the Rationalists, an online community that openly pursues the ideals of the enlightenment but can’t stop spawning cults for some reason.
