Relativity Theory

In this episode Brandon and Diana discuss the "Mitä tulisi tietää?" (what should we know) podcast's episode with cosmologist Syksy Räsänen as the guest, with a focus on the theory of relativity. The discussion covers the fundamentals of both special and general relativity, the constancy of the speed of light, the relativity of time and space, and the influence of gravity on time. The episode also explores the connections between relativity and black holes, dark matter and dark energy, as well as its role in cosmic inflation—and even speculates on the possibility of time travel. Finally, Räsänen sheds light on his current research topics in the field of cosmology. Original Podcast: Mitä tulisi tietää?

episode The Brain's Musical Landscape artwork

The Brain's Musical Landscape

Today, we dive into the mysteries of how the brain perceives, learns, and tunes music. Brandon and Diana discuss how our brains respond to music, activating wide areas during listening and creation, and explore the complexity of perceiving musical intervals—especially octaves. As before, their inspiration comes from their new favorite podcast from Finland, "Mitä tulisi tietää?" where Mikko Siltala interviews musician-researcher Jussi Jaatinen, who sheds light on the relationship between the brain and music, blending artistic experience with scientific understanding. The episode also touches on the importance of active listening, the unique characteristics of musicians' brains, as well as the phenomenon of octave stretching and its historical and practical significance in music.

episode String Theory artwork

String Theory

Brandon and Diana dive into their surprising new favorite: the Finnish podcast Mitä tulisi tietää? (What you should know). They focus on an episode that explores the fundamentals of string theory — that complex yet fascinating framework in physics that aims to unify everything. The discussion unpacks why string theory matters, what it's trying to explain, and the major challenges it faces. The episode acts as a kind of “cheat sheet” to the topic: clear, free of unnecessary jargon, and an engaging introduction to the world of string theory. Original Podcast: Mitä tulisi tietää?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
