Why do physicists fight philosophers? A couple of months ago, I was
invited to Robinson Erhardt’s podcast to discuss the expansion and
inflation of the universe, the relationship between theory and
experiment in cosmology, gravitational waves, my brainchild, the
BICEP experiment, and a lot more. Enjoy! Robinson Erhardt
researches symbolic logic and the foundations of mathematics at
Stanford University. Join him in conversations with philosophers,
scientists, weightlifters, artists, and everyone in between:
