This is a clip from a conversation with Michio Kaku from Oct 2019. New full episodes once or twice a week and 1-2 new clips or a new non-podcast video on all other days.

Ultimately, this podcast is a small side hobby for me with the goal of sharing and discussing ideas. For now, I post a few clips every Tue & Fri. I did a poll and 92% of people either liked or loved the posting of daily clips, 2% were indifferent, and 6% hated it, some suggesting that I post them on a separate YouTube channel. I hear the 6% and partially agree, so am torn about the whole thing. I tried creating a separate clips channel but the YouTube algorithm makes it very difficult for that channel to grow unless the main channel is already very popular. So for a little while, I'll keep posting clips on the main channel. I ask for your patience and to see these clips as supporting the dissemination of knowledge contained in nuanced discussion. If you enjoy it, consider subscribing, sharing, and commenting. Michio Kaku is a theoretical physicist, futurist, and professor at the City College of New York. He is the author of many fascinating books on the nature of our reality and the future of our civilization.

Segments Timeline
The Quantum Creation of Universes
Michio Kaku discusses the concept that the Big Bang may not be a singular event but rather a continuous process where multiple universes are created simultaneously. He explains how this idea aligns with quantum theory and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, suggesting that universes are being formed all the time, which he finds aesthetically pleasing.
"I'm a quantum physicist and we quantum physicists don't believe that the Big Bang happened once that would violate the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and that means that there could be multiple bang..."
Merging Buddhism and Christianity in Cosmology
Kaku reflects on the contrasting views of creation in Buddhism and Christianity, exploring how these seemingly opposing ideas can coexist. He proposes a unified theory where the universe may have had a beginning while also existing within a multiverse, allowing for the possibility of timelessness and multiple creations happening in an 11-dimensional hyperspace.
"it's possible to Mel them into a single theory either the universe had a beginning or it didn't right wrong you see our universe had a beginning our universe had an instant where somebody might have s..."
The Multiverse and the Nature of Time
In this segment, Kaku elaborates on Stephen Hawking's argument against the existence of God, suggesting that the multiverse concept introduces the idea of time existing before our universe. He uses the analogy of a bubble bath to explain how universes can collide or bud off from one another, redefining the Big Bang as a result of these interactions rather than a singular event.
"of creation and Stephen Hawking for example even in his last book even said that this is an argument against the existence of God he said there is no God because there was not enough time for God to c..."
