Do Quantum Androids Dream of Electric Cats? ~ Prof. Gerard Milburn

In this episode, Prof. Gerard J. Milburn explores the foundations of quantum mechanics—wave function collapse, measurement, and the meaning of the observer—before connecting these ideas to spacetime, irreversibility, and the relational nature of time. The conversation then moves into quantum technologies, revealing how quantum computers differ fundamentally from classical machines, why they can achieve dramatic efficiency gains, and what entirely new possibilities they may unlock. Prof. Milburn closes by discussing his work on quantum gravity and quantum learning machines, and reflects on how grappling with quantum theory reshaped his understanding of reality itself—offering powerful advice for the next generation of physicists stepping into one of the deepest intellectual frontiers of our time.

How to Change the World through Systems Thinking

How do you change the world without making things worse somewhere else? In this episode, Finn and I discuss Thinking in Systems by Donella H. Meadows and explore how systems thinking can create maximum positive impact. After reading the book, we make our own attempt at building a system, applying ideas like feedback loops and leverage points to something real. We reflect on why quick fixes fail, how complex systems behave, and what ethical, meaningful change might actually look like.

Wandering Thoughts on Attachment Theory

Finn and I talk about attachment theory. Attachment theory, developed by John Bowlby, explains how early relationships with caregivers shape our expectations of safety and connection. It argues that the need for closeness is a basic biological drive, not a weakness. Join us for this fun discussion
