Season 4, Ep 9 -- Daniel Whiteson PhD - Discussing particles, the universe, and whisky

As you know, Joshua and Jason like to take a detour from whisky now and again. In previous episodes the boys interviewed Garth Ennis (writer of the cult classic comics Preacher and The Boys, now major TV shows on AMC and Amazon, respectively), Adal Rifai (comedian and Chuntttttt from Hello from the Magic Tavern), and Matthew Rhys (Emmy Award winning actor from The Americans, The Post, and A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood). Today's detour takes us out of this world! Well, out of the whisky-world and into the great wide world of particle physics and The Universe... The guest today is famed Particle Physicist Daniel Whiteson. Daniel, and his good friend Jorge Cham, creator of PhD Comics, co-host the podcast "Daniel and Jorge Explain The Universe". They're also the co-authors of We Have No Idea: A Guide to the Unknown Universe. If you'd like, you can watch Daniel's TED Talk HERE.  So, as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!
