Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Dully Wild, and I want to invite you
to listen to my newest podcast. You already have a
fantastic podcast idea. It's called The Oh My God Particle
Show or OMGPS for short. Are you like me? Always
wondering about the universe?

Speaker 2 (00:14):
What the universe is made of, how it's going to evolve,
how did it start? And you know, how are we
even here to even ask those questions.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
I started as a kid who looked up at the
night sky and wondered what might be up there?

Speaker 1 (00:27):
What is in the atmospheres of alien planets?

Speaker 2 (00:30):
No dumb questions, there's no dumb questions, No dumb questions.
The more questions you have, the closer you're getting to us.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
So road trip I went to get some answers about
how the universe works directly from researchers at the large hadron.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Colliding colliding particles with energies that naturally existed when the
universe was about a trillionth of.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
A second old.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
I found scientists from all over the world collaborating.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
There.

Speaker 4 (00:55):
I just find is the international aspect of cern where
everybody is working together to get the experiment working completely.
You know, amazing and completely, you know, very motivating.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
I got the doctor, brilliant astrophysicist who collaborated with Sir Brian.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
May, the guitarist from Queen and he'd become friends because
Brian had some downtime and so he wanted a new telescope.
Brian just called the most famous astronomy in the country
and asked for advice on what telescope you should buy it.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
And guess what else? But somehow I slip into a
ripple in the space time continuum and got to meet
some amazing women scientists from the past. It's me. There's
a door to the space time continuum, of course there is.
It's me heavy Lamar. I love when science is simple, fun,

(01:48):
imaginative and another way to describe what the heck is
going on here. They're a ruben. Each one of you
could change the world. You are made of star stuff,
and you are connected to the universe. I gotta wrote.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
We know our son is a third generation star, so
the stuff that you're made of has already been through
two different generations of star. We are stardust in the
sense that the atoms that make up our bodies have
already existed in two stars.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
