2:22:55ENLex Fridman· Aug 23, 2021Podcast · 2 speakersLIGO measures a thousandth of a proton — then a thousand physicists stayed quiet for a monthGuest Barry Barish · Host Lex FridmanNobel laureate Barry Barish tells Lex Fridman how gravitational waves were predicted, doubted, and finally heard with the most precise machine ever built.
2:22:20ENLex Fridman· May 29, 2021Podcast · 2 speakersThe closer quarks get, the weaker they pullGuest Frank Wilczek · Host Lex FridmanNobel physicist Frank Wilczek talks with Lex Fridman about asymptotic freedom, beauty, dark matter, consciousness, and whether a theory of everything would even help.
2:44:19ENLex Fridman· Feb 23, 2021Podcast · 2 speakersSpeech Was a Bundle, and the Internet Unbundled ItGuest Eric Weinstein · Host Lex FridmanOn his fourth Lex Fridman Podcast appearance, Eric Weinstein talks through digital speech, reputation as a control tool, gauge-theoretic economics, and the unfinished physics he calls geometric unity.

James Gates Jr. talks with Lex Fridman about Mars budgets, supersymmetry, error-correcting codes hiding in equations, and why string theory is not yet a theory.

18:45ENLex FridmanPodcast · 2 speakersWhy Sean Carroll Thinks Many-Worlds Is the Cleanest Version of Quantum MechanicsGuest Sean Carroll · Host Lex FridmanThe Caltech physicist explains how Everett's idea works, answers the energy-conservation objection, and compares it with its rivals.
11:11ENLex FridmanPodcast · 2 speakersFilling the Empty Quadrants: Jim Gates on Supersymmetry and the Beauty of Broken SymmetryGuest Jim Gates · Host Lex FridmanTheoretical physicist Jim Gates explains supersymmetry with a four-slice pie, recalls how he chose it for his thesis in the 1970s, and connects it to the way physics moves from mathematics to experiment.
12:52ENLex FridmanPodcast · 2 speakersRoger Penrose on a Universe That Restarts: When the Far Future Becomes the Next Big BangGuest Roger Penrose · Host Lex FridmanPenrose explains conformal cyclic cosmology, in which the remote future of one cosmic eon is mathematically the same as the Big Bang of the next.
