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 scie…

We unpack the P vs NP question—the difference between solving a problem and verifying a solution quickly. Learn what P and NP mean, why NP-complete problems like Sudoku and SAT matter, and how a proof (or refutation) would ripple through cryptography, AI, and optimization. Plus, we explore the real-world stakes of this Millennium Prize Problem and …

From Conway and Guy’s 1966 question about a uniform tetrahedron to modern demonstrations of monostability via uneven weight, this episode unpacks a surprisingly deep journey. We delve into the idea of an obtuse path that fixes the center of mass in a tiny stable zone, the brutal engineering math that demands a heavy core thousands of times denser t…
