In this episode, we have a deep and personal conversation about how to navigate a world where AI can fake reality, viral headlines blur truth, and curiosity becomes your best defense. From eerily realistic AI party photos and pheromone studies to hidden oceans beneath Earth’s surface, extreme drilling limits, and an interstellar visitor passing through our solar system — this episode explores how to think clearly when the internet gets weird.
Dr. Dakotah Tyler and Justin Shaifer riff on strange viral claims, the science (and limits) behind human pheromones, why a “hidden ocean” isn’t what it sounds like, what happens when you drill miles into Earth’s crust, how scientists capture light itself, and whether space-based AI data centers are actually practical. Along the way: Voyager’s journey beyond the heliosphere, pulsar maps meant for aliens, and the fascinating — but very non-alien — reality of 3I/Atlas.
