My name's Curt Jaimungal, a Torontonian with a degree in mathematical physics from the University of Toronto and I analyze various Theories of Everything from this analytic perspective, though more and more opening up to alternative approaches. The separating factor of TOE from other podcasts is its focus on depth even at the risk of limiting the audience due to how much detail we delve into subjects. Paralleling the intensity found in academic discourse, we're increasingly embracing a spectrum of unconventional ideas to conduct research during this podcast, rather than merely conveying existing information.

Top Chemist on Terrence Howard's JRE Episode "Chemistry is POETRY!" | Lee Cronin
Curt Jaimungal and Lee Cronin openly discuss Terrence Howard's recent appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience. This is NOT a debunking video. Curt and Lee review some clips from the Terrence JRE episode and discuss what is scientifically accurate and what still needs more review and what may be mistaken. This is meant to be an open minded yet scientifically accurate discussion. Let the open minded yet scientifically rigorous discussions continue!

christianity, Infinity, The sacred, relations vs objects
I have the department award in Comparative Philosophies & Religion from my prep school; I studied at an undergraduate university level as well. I am an atheist, an anti-theist. In sum, this conversation illustrates why not only religions are brainwash but philosophies. My first thought concerning this conversation was, in sum, the subject is ontology: The attributes & characteristics of persons, places, or things. It is, in essence, a form of categorizing. I did that preamble just for you two. ...Two words: phenomena vs noumena. Philosophy is presented here in a way that compels me to find it as abhorrent as religion itself. Common Sense, as well, compels me to say your conversation is so out of touch with the common person that it is in effect useless & as repellent as religion--which is to say bound by its laws--is. Specifically, if it takes an egghead to follow these points made here, then what is the point & if it takes this much information to even discuss reality one way or another then I prefer to remain ignorant, knowing most of us cannot afford to study this amount..."did that make sense" sums this broadcast.
One of the best podcast I’ve listened to in a long while!
I was listening to Jordan Peterson when Curt came into my feed in an interview. It was one of the best interviews that I’d listen to in a while and that really turned me on listening to theories of everything. I’m really glad I started listening to it. I really enjoyed the topics. Thanks, Curt. I really appreciate what you do.
