Quantum Physics for Dummies! (yes, you)
Jibran’s infamous last remaining brain cell miraculously goes through mitosis (whatever that is) and multiplies as he and HanJoo embark upon the Quantum Realm, Quantum Suicide, Dark Matter, String Theory, The Multiverse & The Weeping Angels.
Your wonderful hosts are joined today by Emilia, an emerging bioengineer, physics enthusiast, and one smart cookie, as they discuss important topics such as, is it possible to live forever? And how do we rip a hole in time??
And most importantly-
Jibran: HanJoo, please don’t say it.
HanJoo: You must be the speed of light because time stops when I look at you.
Jibran: Please stop.
HanJoo: Your smile must be a black hole, nothing can escape its pull. I’d fall for you even in absence of gravity.
Jibran: That’s it, I’m calling the cops.
TW: Yes, there will be toe-curling pick-up lines. This episode may also cause tripping out and brain lagging - please take breaks and drink water to process quantum anxiety and existential questioning. You’re welcome 😉

shit, it’s mercury retrograde
so…I don’t believe in astrology but…what time were you born?
Okay, you asked and we answered - we know mercury has been in retrograde…but just what even is it?
Are we soul mates, twin flames, or karmic partners?
Should astrology compatibility be a red flag? Why do double Scorpios hate Libras?
And what is a divine feminine and masculine??
In Season 2 Episode 2, Gwen answers Jibran and HanJoo’s burning Tiktok algorithm fueled Astrology/spirituality questions, starting with an unbiased (cough) ranking of the 12 signs, explaining the differences between rising/moon/sun signs, compatibility, mercury retrograde, to soul mate relationships and more!
We all know what star sign Jibran is… but can astrology expert Gwen guess HanJoo’s correctly? Tune in to find out!

Ever been cancelled or doxxed for something you said or did in the past?
In episode 5, our second guest, Aisha from England joins us to discuss how far we can really go with ‘Cancel Culture’.
Can artists get away with things ‘in the name of art’? Do some actions warrant more public shame and scrutiny than others? What are our thoughts on Kanye West’s new album, ‘Donda’, and the term ‘snowflake’? And can we really block Amazon from our lives, even if we wanted to?
