At The Core Of Climate Change
It's odd that so many people are scrambling to fix climate change - yet so few have actually taken the time to point out the core source of all of the problems that have given rise to our current situation. "The Earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself." --Chief Seattle I forgot to include the audio clip in the episode; however, if you're still interested in hearing the correct pronunciation, you can find the clip here: https://www.historylink.org/File/5071 Special thanks to Chris LeBoutillier from Unsplash for providing the image used in this episode's cover art.

Why Is There Something Rather Than Nothing?
Why does anything exist at all? What is reality all about? I offer my best shot as to why there is something rather than nothing. Granted, this is a deep philosophical dive, but I try to keep as much logic and science as is possible when tackling such an impossible question. Just yesterday I finished "A Universe From Nothing" by Dr. Lawrence M. Krauss; and I put it aside utterly disappointed as it contributed absolutely nothing to the quest for answer this question. That being the case, I've decided to open up and deliver my personal theory, as far as I have developed it to date, as to why there is something rather than nothing. I've never heard anybody answer it this way - so I hope this offers a fresh perspective on the issue to those who are seeking a more logical answer. This episode steps just outside the normal "existential dread" theme of The Great Filter, but stays within the realm of the general "existential" questions.

With science being a search for truth, how did we find ourselves in the contradictory situation where science itself is a source of distrust? The image for this episodes cover art was provided by Kindel Media from Pexels.

How We All Die
What is The Drake Equation? What is Fermi's Paradox? What is The Great Filter? What is our probability of surviving this unknown danger ... if it exists? Thanks to Francesco Ungaro from Pexels for providing the 'space invaders' photo used in this episodes cover art.
