Alexander Unzicker is a theoretical physicist, historian, and author whose award-winning work focuses on the great unanswered questions of physics. He’s also the host of Unzicker’s Real Physics (@TheMachian) where he explores the path forward after a century of particle madness. We talk variable speed of light, the veil of differential geometry, why unification is so difficult, the bright line between mathematics and reality, and much, much more.

When not talking to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Michael Shilo also did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various universities. - Blog: http://DemystifySci.com/blog - RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rss - Donate: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaD - Swag: https://bit.ly/2PXdC2y SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/ - Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySci MUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
