10 Apr 2025
Could our reality be a simulation? Tom Campbell, a Physicist, lecturer, and author, joins us today to challenge the notion of reality as we perceive it, explaining his groundbreaking Theory of Everything (“My Big T.O.E”) and how our perception of the world may be part of a vast simulation. Get ready to explore the nature of free will, entropy, our connection to a larger consciousness system, and how this gives purpose and meaning to our existence.OUR GUESTTHOMAS W. CAMPBELL (born December 9, 1944) is a physicist, lecturer, and author of the trilogy My Big TOE (Theory of Everything), which aims to unify general relativity, quantum mechanics, and metaphysics along with the origins of consciousness. His work is based on the simulation argument, proposing that reality is both virtual and subjective. In 2017, Campbell and his co-authors published the paper "On Testing the Simulation Theory" in the International Journal of Quantum Foundations, suggesting several experiments to test this hypothesis.Campbell holds both a B.S. and an M.S. in Physics. He started but did not complete a PhD in experimental nuclear physics, with a thesis on low-energy nuclear collisions. He worked as a systems analyst with U.S. Army technical intelligence for a decade before moving into the R&D of technology supporting defensive missile systems. For nearly 30 years, he worked within the U.S. missile defense community as a contractor to the Department of Defense. Most recently, he worked for NASA’s Ares I program (the successor to the Shuttle), assessing and solving problems of risk and vulnerability to ensure mission and crew survivability and success.TOM CAMPBELL🌐 WEBSITE ▶ https://www.my-big-toe.com/🐦 X ▶ https://x.com/tomcampbell_mbt📸 IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/tomcampbellmbt🤳 TIKTOK ▶ https://www.tiktok.com/@mybigtoeofficial?_t=8bBvx0GV12z&_r=1👉 YOUTUBE ▶ https://www.youtube.com/@twcjr44AARON ALEXANDER📸 IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/aaronalexander/🤳 TIKTOK ▶ https://www.tiktok.com/@alignmethod👉 SUBSCRIBE ▶ https://www.youtube.com/@AlignPodcast?sub_confirmation=1🌐 WEBSITE ▶ https://www.alignpodcast.comTOPICS1.
