The Beyond Podcast

Science EN ↓ 13 Folgen

The Beyond Podcast explores meta-topics and concepts. Note: this has nothing to do with Meta - the corporation. We will focus on mind-twisting subjects like recursion, self-similarity, self-reference, various paradoxes, and other fun puzzles and problems. We will discuss meta references in art and entertainment. And we will try to make these discussions fun and entertaining!
