You're Not Experiencing Time. You're Building It.
About this episode
What we call "now" might be less a moment we experience and more a story our brains construct. Jo Marchant kicks things off by exploring the surprising science of the present moment and why it's far stranger than we assume. Then Nobel Prize–winning physicist Frank Wilczek takes us deeper still, into the quarks, photons, and weird elegance that make up the fabric of reality itself.
