Schrödinger's Cat: Is Ignorance Really Bliss?
Kevin, Jacob and Joseph discuss if ignorance is really bliss, according to the famed quote by Thomas Gray. They use Schrödinger's Cat, a thought experiment in which a cat placed in a bunker with unstable gunpowder lives in both states (dead or alive) if the bunker is left unopened, as the theory suggests that opening the bunker influences the outcome of the cat being dead or alive, so this brings up the question: Is Ignorance Really Bliss?. No cats were harmed in the making of this episode!!
