Unexplainable · An argument for the sun · 27 Jul 2026 podcast

That was never really supported by any science.

It was more of like just a public messaging thing.

And most of the researchers I've spoken with, like their message was, you really don't want to burn, never burn, burns bad.

But I think like those little, you know, garden variety, quick hits of sun exposure that we tend to get if we're just going about our day, those are going to come to be seen as a good thing.

I like the way you put that because it really is.

It's about the universe.

And once you start thinking about light and how it enters you or how it affects you, then you think about energy because light is just pure energy, no mass at all.

And, you know, one of the rules about energy is that it's never created or destroyed.

It's just transformed.

So since the Big Bang, no one knows how it arrived with the Big Bang, but since then, it's just been knocking around, transforming into this and that.

And so everything that we are is some of that energy that goes back through the sun all the way to the Big Bang.

And we are just like this iteration of it on its journey to wherever.

So...

I do think about that whenever I'm walking around and aware of the way that light is flowing through me.

And it sort of helps connect you to the rest of everything.

Thanks for such a great conversation.
