Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

And by universe, call it multiverse, whatever word you want to use, the whole thing.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

I do believe that it's coherent.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

Now, whether that means it follows mathematical laws, I don't know.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

It could be the case that, you know, when we talk to those aliens that we encounter one day and they say, okay, show us what you got.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

We bring out our equations and they kind of laugh at us and say, oh, you guys are still stuck on math.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

You know, and they said, yeah, you know, a thousand, 10,000 years ago, we were doing math too, but here's the real way of describing it.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

Now, what they'd be showing us with the real way of describing it, I have no idea.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

I can't even imagine what it would be that would be non-mathematical.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

So I do have a deep faith that it's coherent.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

And the only tool that I know how to encapsulate that coherence are mathematical equations.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

So if Zantar Brian and Brian here come up with equations that collide with one another and don't work, to me it just means that both were wrong and there's some bigger overarching coherence that we've yet to find.

Radiolab
The Nothing Behind Everything

That's it.
