Juan Maldacena, famous physicist known for his work on black holes and AdS CFT, joins Brian Keating to discuss topics such as human traversable wormholes, the multiverse, black holes, wormholes in movies like Interstellar, an economic analog to the Higgs Mechanism, and the fascination with time travel. They also explore the construction of a humanly traversable wormhole, the connection between non-Gaussianities and primordial gravitational waves, and the possibility of finding non-gassy entities in large-scale structure.
