We Solved Time Travel! (And It Involves your Favourite Coffee Mug)

**Warning, we had some audio issues this episode so things may sound a bit wonky. We apologize profusely!! Don't hate us!! 😭💚💜Happy Pride Month, fellow Weirdos! 🏳️‍🌈 We are kicking off June the only way we know how: with a chaotic drag queen fan crack, memories of Vegas drag brunches, and a mission to give back. For the entire month of June, all proceeds from our Rainbow Tie-Dye merch will be personally matched by us and donated directly to local charities supporting queer youth, including the Gilbert Center and Spectrum! (Plus, keep your eyes peeled for Merlin the Corgi at Tri-City Pride on June 6th). Once we get the logistics out of the way, it’s time to melt our soft little brains with a deep dive into the fabric of space-time. We didn't take physics in high school, but that won't stop us from tackling quantum mechanics, universe ice blocks, and paradoxes! What’s On the Slab This Week:The Physics of Whimsy: We break down Einstein's flexible space-time, the Block Universe theory, and why we don't personally own the spaceship required to test a Tipler Cylinder. Mug Smashing & Timeline Jumping: The internet says if you want to escape adult responsibilities, you just have to smash your favourite coffee mug to jump to a parallel branch of the multiverse. (Allegedly. Please don't sue us if this does not occur). Glitch in the Matrix or Just a Reenactment?: We look into history’s most baffling urban legends, including the 1901 Versailles time slip, the mystery of internet icon John Titor, and the debunked case of Sergey Ponomarenko. Neil deGrasse Tyson Ruining the Fun: Why traveling to the future is a proven reality, but traveling to the past is a space-machine nightmare. (Spoiler: If you don't calculate Earth's constant hurtling motion through the universe, your time machine will just dump you into empty space). Pareidolia Strikes Again: The real, surprisingly practical truth behind those viral "1920s cell phone" clips. Our Dream Destinations: Stevie wants ancient Egypt at its peak, and Jacklynn just wants to drive cool 1970s cars.Grab a drink, lock your timelines, and let’s get weird! Follow the Whimsy:Instagram / TikTok / YouTube: @WeirdosOfWhimsyPodMerch & Support: Head to our website to grab your Rainbow Tie-Dye gear and help us support queer youth this month! Missed our previous deep dives?
