Description

In this mini-episode of 'Rabbit Hole of Research,' Joe, Georgia, and Nick dive back into the simulation hypothesis (Episode 26). The discussion includes a clarification of a reference to the 'St. Elsewhere' finale, analysis of the 'Lemon Girl' video as potential evidence of a simulation glitch, and reader comments on the complexity of the natural world as an argument against the simulation hypothesis. They also touch on the double-slit experiment, Schrodinger's cat, and the debut of the TGL simulated golf season. Other topics include recommended books and a brief discussion of movies related to simulations.

Note: Both Nick and Georgia were recovering from a cold—so their voices are a little scratchy.Mini-Shownotes:
