Dr Brian Keating

Conversations with the scientists shaping how we understand reality. I'm Brian Keating, experimental cosmologist at UC San Diego. My team builds telescopes at the South Pole & in the Atacama Desert to measure the cosmic microwave background, the oldest light in the universe. On Into the Impossible, I interview Nobel laureates, working researchers, and the heretics they argue with. Past guests include Terry Tao, Roger Penrose, Kip Thorne, Frank Wilczek, Sam Harris, David Deutsch, Avi Loeb, Stephen Wolfram, Eric Weinstein, & Donald Hoffman. You'll find long-form interviews on physics, cosmology, AI, & philosophy of mind. Solo episodes, lectures & explainers when a topic deserves more than a single conversation can hold. The conversations every other science channel won't have.
