About this listen

What if reality doesn’t exist until you look at it? Quantum physics started as a fix for a math problem. Then it spiraled into the most accurate and most unsettling theory in science. This is the story of how we figured it out. From Planck’s desperate fudge to Feynman’s diagrams, from Schrödinger’s cat to the many-worlds interpretation, Quantum 101 walks you through every milestone of the quantum revolution. No mysticism. No equations without meaning. Just the actual story, told in a way that makes sense. Discover why particles tunnel through walls. Why entanglement breaks space. Why observation collapses possibility into fact. And why nobody, not Einstein, not Bohr, not even modern physicists, can fully explain what it all means. We built the math. We ran the experiments. And reality still doesn’t make sense.
