    Does Flowing Space Reform Relativity? - Dr. Henry Lindner, DemystifySci +422

    2026/05/22 | 2h 33 mins.
    Henry Lindner walks into the cathedral of general relativity and asks why no one can hear the pipes, flowing space as reformation of Einstein's gravity, where the medium returns and the math bows down to something almost physical, almost true. We trace the long exile of substance from physics, from Newton's absolute space through the ether wars to Mach's ghost whispering in Einstein's ear that nothing real needs to exist at all. But a simplification is not an explanation, and gravity still has no mechanism, no cause, no beating heart beneath the geometry, only equations where a theory should be. This is the Keplerian step: cleaner orbits, better math, and the Darwinian question still howling unanswered in the dark.

    The End of the Quantum Age: Another Look at Paradox Lost (DemystifySci +421)

    2026/05/15 | 1h 22 mins.
    We're back for a second livestream! Again, we'll be reading from Paradox Lost: The Material Principles of Natural Philosophy. This time, though, we're going through the very end of the book, and laying out what we think our materials science approach to fundamental physics can let us accomplish. It seems wild to say, but nothing less than the future of civilization hangs in the balance.

    Post-Truth is Rooted in Bad Physics - James Ellias (Inductica), DemystifySci +420

    2026/05/05 | 1h 47 mins.
    Something broke in the foundations of how we think, and the cracks have been spreading ever since through Western culture, politics, creating a fraying sense of what is real. In this live conversation recorded in Austin, Texas, we sit down with James Ellias of @Inductica to trace the damage back to its source: the moment physics abandoned explanation for mysticism and handed civilization a permission slip for unreality. We move through Kant and Newton, through positivism and quantum superstition, through the collapse of the hero and the rise of the conspiracy, searching always for the thread that leads back out. Have you, too, felt the ground shifting beneath the stories we tell ourselves?

    First Look at Paradox Lost: The Material Principles of Natural Philosophy - DSPod #419

    2026/04/28 | 1h 38 mins.
    On our first livestream we are cracking open a chapter of Paradox Lost - The Material Principles of Natural Philosophy and giving the world a first glance into the book that we've been writing for the last five years and are right on the verge of publishing. We'll be reading from Chapter 4, "What Force Is, I Know Not," in which we tell the story of how modern physics gave itself over to the influence of mediatorless forces just as it was right on the cusp of true understanding.

    60 Second Theories. Paradigm Drift = 9 x (DemystifySci + 418)

    2026/04/21 | 2h 5 mins.
    This is where we come together in search of ideas that will one day change the world. Theorists, pulled from a hat, get sixty seconds to present their potentially revolutionary idea about pretty much anything. If it doesn't yet make sense, they go back to the kitchen. Assisted by guest scientist, Michael Hughes. Nastia conducts. Shilo jams. Live audience chats. Taped 3.13.26. Next one will be in June. Read more, watch, or sign up here: https://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showBy the way, we had to edit out the last theorist from this episode. Airing the theory here is arguably a felony. We're sorry about this but do try not to break the law if you wanna end up published. Such is our moment.
