Superconductors are the closest thing to magic that science has to offer - and likely the key to our future. They'll change technology, transportation, and our power grids as we know it. Over five Nobel Prizes have been awarded for research into superconductive materials, but their behavior remains difficult to explain. AJ and Nate sit down with materials scientist Dr. Tim Cullinan to explore what makes this phenomenon so miraculous why its explanation is so elusive.
Additional topics include: the antimatter paradox, Boeing's Starliner (yes, again), and the first sample from the far side of the moon.

Can Science Restore Venus's Ancient Oceans?
Today, Venus is a scorching hot, inhospitable wasteland. Yet, in the distant past, it was a water world identical to Earth. To understand this drastic change, AJ and Nate will explore a strange phenomenon discovered in Venus's atmosphere. Then, they'll break down an insane, far-fetched plan to restore Venus to its former glory - that with enough time, just might work.
Additional topics include: How to see 2024's best meteor shower, what your confidence says about your knowledge level, and a rampaging bulldozer.

Do Your Past and Future Exist?
Our daily lives would tell us we understand time - but what if that's not the case? AJ and special guest Nate Pinto explore the mysteries of time and what physics says about its place in our universe. Is there only "the now"? Is the past lost and is the future unwritten? The answer is a solid... maybe.
Additional Topics Include: A potential new airspeed record, the best spot for a moon base, and what your forehead says about your empathy.
