Cognitive psychologist Dr. Donald Hoffman explores dynamic entities beyond spacetime, discussing Markovian dynamics, new mathematics in physics, non-real solutions to physical equations, and spiritual entities. They also delve into consciousness, portals into consciousness, math as a scaffold for understanding, and life as a fractal representation of the whole universe. The podcast addresses the need for science to remain skeptical, the meaning of Hoffman's work, and explores indigenous traditions, conflict negotiation, and the importance of play in learning.

He was also an early proponent of the Younger Dryas Impact hypothesis, which suggests that at the end of the last glaciation that an enormous asteroid shattered upon entry into Earth’s atmosphere, showering North Africa, Europe, and North America in meteoritic fragments. Proponents of the Younger Dryas impact theory point to numerous lines of evidence that suggest the event is more than theoretical. There are molten rocks called tektites, a “black mat” of charred organic material that encircles the globe, and a massive extinction event that all correspond to the time and location of the proposed impact. But the Younger Dryas impact theory remains controversial. We talk catastrophic history, cold fusion technology, origin of life, why people are so upset about the Younger Dryas Impact hypothesis, and Malcom Bendall’s thunderstorm generator.
