Today, we primarily occupy ourselves with alternative explanations to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. Many listeners will be familiar with Pierre Marie Robitaille’s theory that the CMB is produced due to the hydrogen bond lattice of the oceans. Here, Assis lays out a different theory - championed by at least four Nobel Laureates - that the CMB isn’t the afterglow of the Big Bang - it’s simply the temperature at which the cold, dark objects of space are equilibrated against the background light of the stars.

• Bergson's Harmonic Theory of Consciousness - Dr. Jack Bagby, DemystifySci #327

Bergson was an early proponent of the absolute importance of context when trying to understand nature. This is nowhere more apparent than in the world of music, where the rhythm, interval, and mode of the songs being played creates wildly different sensations even when the same pure tones are in play. Bagby has extensive experience with novel musical instruments, strange tunings, and alternative scales, which he deploys as evidence of Bergson’s deep insights in the nature of perception and reality.

• A Case for Scientific Anarchy - Jim Keller, DemystifySci #326

In addition to being a crack engineer, Keller is also deeply curious about the inner workings of nature on all scales, and is the patron for our upcoming Beyond the Big Bang meeting in Portugal. Keller is a big proponent of what philosopher Paul Feyerabend called “scientific anarchy,” where progress requires us to abandon a prescriptive approach to what counts as “science,” because many contradictory theories can be “true” at once. We build on our previous conversation about the nature of institutions to unpack why the Big Bang is about to fall apart, what it takes to build a new theory, and how to create a lasting impact without striving explicitly for immortality.

• The Real Telepathy Tapes - Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell, DemystifySci #325

  MAKE HISTORY WITH US THIS SUMMER:https://demystifysci.com/demysticon-2025Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell is an independent researcher into the telepathic ability of non-speaking autistic children, whose research was the basis of the wildly popular Telepathy Tapes (TT) podcast. She is a Johns Hopkins trained neuropsychiatrist, former Harvard faculty member, and award-winning therapist for autistic children. We host her for a conversation the real telepathy tapes - evidence that she has collected over decades of research into parapsychological phenomena in her autistic patients. Dr. Powell paints a more measured, mechanistic, and intriguing picture of the Telepathy Tapes story and offers us a way of encountering the possibility of extraordinary ability without having to revert to the tired frame of either fraud or magic.
