Unexplainable · Are we all living in an enormous black hole? · 6 Jul 2026 podcast

But then James went galaxy brain.

So you're saying in a large enough black hole, it could be potentially possible for people to just hang out and be okay?

Are you aware how that sounds?

But black holes suck everything into the center, right?

Like if we were in a huge black hole, there would be a center somewhere, right?

That's insane.

Yeah.

If I can see if I'm understanding this, it's not where is the singularity, it's like when is the singularity almost?

So the idea there is that in our universe, there could be infinite other universes that are the black holes in our universe.

Correct.

Okay.

You can make them?

Coming up in a minute, how to make a black hole.

Okay, we've been on this long, spaghettified journey together, so let's just get our bearings for a second.

It's possible we might be living in an enormous black hole because in a black hole, there'd be this edge we can't see past that would always be getting further away, which sounds a lot like what we see from Earth right now.

We just tend to see it as our universe getting bigger.

But we can't prove this one way or the other because we don't really know that much about black holes to begin with.

And we can't go out and study one up close because the closest confirmed black hole is just way too far away.

So James Beecham, this particle physicist at CERN, he's got a different idea.

If we want to study a black hole, we might be able to make one.
