Videos Mentioning Big Bang

Brian Greene: Quantum Gravity, The Big Bang, Aliens, Death, and Meaning | Lex Fridman Podcast #232
Lex Fridman
The prevailing cosmological model for the observable universe from the earliest known periods through its subsequent large-scale evolution, an event that remains a deep mystery regarding its initial spark.

Jeffrey Shainline: Neuromorphic Computing and Optoelectronic Intelligence | Lex Fridman Podcast #225
Lex Fridman
The widely accepted theory for the origin of our universe, where everything originated from a single point and expanded, followed by an era of inflation.

Jed Buchwald: Isaac Newton and the Philosophy of Science | Lex Fridman Podcast #214
Lex Fridman
The cosmological model that describes the early development of the Universe, discussed in relation to the origins of physical laws.

Avi Loeb: Aliens, Black Holes, and the Mystery of the Oumuamua | Lex Fridman Podcast #154
Lex Fridman
The cosmological model for the observable universe, whose origin and what happened before it remain a challenge in physics.

Dr. Michio Kaku — Exploring Time Travel, the Beauty of Physics, and More | The Tim Ferriss Show
Tim Ferriss
The biggest explosion in the universe, representing the expansion of the universe itself, which Michio Kaku preferred to study over hydrogen bombs.

Andrew Strominger: Black Holes, Quantum Gravity, and Theoretical Physics | Lex Fridman Podcast #359
Lex Fridman
The prevailing cosmological model for the universe's earliest known periods, representing the origin of the universe, which presents a challenge to fundamental physics principles like determinism.

Frank Wilczek: Physics of Quarks, Dark Matter, Complexity, Life & Aliens | Lex Fridman Podcast #187
Lex Fridman
The cosmological model for the observable universe's earliest known periods, where the universe was much hotter, denser, and more uniform.

Sam Harris & Jordan Peterson in Vancouver 2018 (with Bret Weinstein moderating) — Second Night
Sam Harris
Cosmological theory used by Sam Harris in an analogy, arguing that fundamentalists sometimes pretend to care about scientific concepts like the Big Bang as a means to defend religious beliefs, even if it doesn't genuinely influence their daily lives.

Lessons from ~4,500 LSD Sessions and Beyond | Stan Grof | The Tim Ferriss Show (Podcast)
Tim Ferriss
A cosmological theory Stan Grof related to his early LSD experiences, where he felt he was not only in the universe but was the universe.

The Man Who Accidentally Discovered Antimatter
Veritasium
The prevailing cosmological model for the universe's origin, during which matter and antimatter were created.

Martin Rees: Black Holes, Alien Life, Dark Matter, and the Big Bang | Lex Fridman Podcast #305
Lex Fridman
The cosmological model that describes the early development of the Universe, starting from a hot, dense state 13.8 billion years ago.

Alien Debate: Sara Walker and Lee Cronin | Lex Fridman Podcast #279
Lex Fridman
The prevailing cosmological model for the universe's origin, reinterpreted by the speakers as an event where information was 'forgotten' or a 'low information event'.
