My co-host, Jordan Clepper, you know him from the Daily Show on Comedy Central.

Also, as my guest, my friend and colleague,

Michio Kaku, theoretical physicist at City College of New York.

And we talk about the future of quantum computing, not only in the sciences, but as it

will touch civilization itself. And just to stir things up a bit, we have a special appearance by comedian Tiffany Hattish coming up.

Welcome to Star Talk.

Your place in the universe where science and pop culture collide.

Star Talk begins right now.

Tonight we're going to discuss something that will change the world.

The world is already changing right now.

It will change it even more in ways yet to be plumbed, even by some of the most brilliant minds in the world.

how we live, how we work, and how we play.

All the ways that that will collide with our culture.

And while I have some expertise in that, nothing that could justify an entire evening here.

We combed the universe to see who has the expertise in quantum computing, quantum physics, and

all that go with it. And we didn't have to look very far up the street

at City College of New York,

Professor Michio Kaku. You're a theoretical physicist, best-selling author,

a futuratical physicist, best-selling author,
