I’ve spent years chasing answers in documentaries, podcasts, even ancient texts—and none of it hit me the way The Obscured Principles book did. It’s like it was written for the few who are ready to break the illusion and remember who they really are.

My toxic trait is that I get dumb faded and listen to this like I understand anything they are saying.

So nice to hear an expert of a field be interviewed by another expert of the same field who is just trying to get the information out for the audience.

This was way too short. I could listen to these two dialogue all day. Incredible communicators and teachers, both in very similar ways. They make the complex, somewhat approachable.

Goodness, this conversation and the previous one with Elise, was so enjoyable. It almost restores my faith in humanity that two, or three, people can sit down and talk about such incredibly esoteric things in such a beautiful and companionable way. The presentation was top quality as was Brian's insights as the host. Thank you for providing it for our genuine viewing pleasure.

Two of my favourite physicists having their typically enlightening conversation. How can you not be enthralled by this stuff?
