In this episode, I revisit the wave particle duality and present an intuitive analogy for understanding how it works.
Plus, new music by Nathaniel Schroeder!

This episode is a little bit different from the norm, because I've created the sound of hydrogen - or, that is, what if it would sound like if it emitted sound instead of light waves!

In this episode we take a break from physics and do a little fuzzy math. But not really: this is actually relevant to physics! Come back and I'll explain later.

Why is the past different from the future? Caltech physicist Sean Carroll explains how the arrow of time is not an intrinsic property of physics, but rather an emergent feature.
